Went to another OM and they were out of VGCs (well, not out...but they only had two $100 cards left). Worth noting is that the second OM was across the street from a Target while the other wasn't, which I suspect explains the difference.

To be clear, this is a Visa-only offer, right?
You would have been better off buying 3 $200 cards in one transaction. Same $40 discount, one less $6.95 fee. The offer is 2 per customer (transaction) and it does work, I've done it several times, when I can find the $200 cards, that is.
