The GC will be a full $500 gc and the credit card (if I'm only using one) will be charged $500*x + $3.95*x. I don't need to worry about the GC having less than $500 on it. Out of curiosity, is $3.95 the full price or is their tax? I'm in Texas if that matters.

When I go to clear it at WM, I ask for a money order of $500-$0.70=$499.30. They charge 70 cents for MOs and to avoid splitting the payment I adjust down the amount in my MO so I drain the card completely. Additionally, I can reduce the MO cost by splitting payments and draining 2 SM GCs into one MO with a $999.30 value. Is it correct to assume there is no tax on MOs? The listed price (70 cents) is the price I need to reduce my MO by?
