CVS POS changes

Now over in the land of MO and I hear from the local CVS that they were told to pull all $4.95 $20-500 VISA GCs and just had a POS system update. So we tried to ring up some newer white/blue box $5.95 $20-500 GC's and the system asked if it was a taxable or nontaxable purchase and did not go to the normal red/green "Were you scammed?" screen. Interesting! So I tapped into my inner IT Auditor and pulled some of the older, red candle $5.95 $20-500 GCs and lo and behold they rang up fine. Memo to CVS - ever hear of adequately testing your POS system changes? Also a memo to Garmin - why the hell did your GPS hide this CVS store and tell me the closest CVS was a few miles away? This CVS is several years old and I installed your latest map update.
