I do agree about eating the fee though, and one at a time is not necessarily a bad policy for the first time at a store.
Yea time wise its a pain but where else can you unload Vanillas. I guess I could get 2 or 3 foir amounts bet $497 - 498, I just dont buy that many Vanillas, but might start since a new CC will give me 2x at a place Since Freedom in Q1 I ned to buy 3 Vanillas tops it didnt bother me doing 1 by 1 and Im not going out of my to that supermkt anyways.

Since I just purchased a new VMC I didnt remember if I could unload them so didnt want 3 ((nor could I have purchased 3 at 1 time) So I got 1 to see if all is good and it is.

The main thing is not to burn any place and since this chain isnt suppose to be taking GCs I dont want to wake up the csrs so 1 maybe 2 will be my MO at different amounts so it doesnt hit them why am I getting 2 for the same amount, yea I have tons of answers but Id rather stay below the radar
