I get two receipts. The first lists each individual GC pre-activated with the amount. The second contains the same information as the first along with the form of payment(s) used. By ordering in advance, their goal is to get the customer in and out as quickly as possible. Thus the first receipt when they are prepared in advance then the second receipt upon presentment of payment.
I only place my order with the manager and trust that the cards will be properly activated. Since the cards are in the sleeves, I still open each one and count to make sure everything is there.
