Ordered a $240 VGC from giftcards.com and activated it.
Rolled up to WM with my boys on a busy saturday afternoon and kindly asked for a money order for $234. Slid the card, entered the last 4 digits of the card when it asked for a pin.
Cashier printed MO, no problem.
MO in the mail to piano teacher!
I guess my problem is I now have a VGC with $5.12. I did try to buy some beer with it a WM after, but kept getting declined. Further research needed.
i have never ordered from Giftcards.com because of their high fees. Just curious how much money did you lose?
