I got shot down today from one of my two grocery stores. When I used this store last time my SMGC would not go through as a debit w/PIN and the cashier was able to hit "credit" and I got a MO. Would I ever like to find *him* again. This time I tried w/credit first and that didn't work and then when I tried w/debit and asked her to hit credit and replicate the previous time she said, "you can't use credit. Let me see your card."
Not sure if it's worth trying again with another clerk. I've only got one more place in the entire town to try. Prolly going to have to hike off to the hinterlands of Wally one of these days.
