Well crap.

Went to Kroger this morning to unload 1999.99 in VGC. Was told they just got an email this morning saying the use of gift cards to buy money orders is prohibited. CSR let me look at the email.

She said she sent an email back asking to clarify what "gift card" meant, because in her mind that mean Kroger Gift cards, and not the open-loop VGCs.

Will see what she comes back with.

Don't know if this was for the Cincinnati area ones only, or just a few specific stores.
