Like many of the others above me, I'm looking to start MS. I want to start light with $500, especially since there are no WM, DT/FD, etc immediately nearby, so liquidating to Serve could be tricky.

I've seen VGCs at pharmacies that have a fixed amount and ones that have a variable amount ($20-$500). Do these differ in difficulty of liquidation? I've only seen the One Vanilla variety in my area.

Also, when buying gift cards, is it essentially $500 cards or bust?

Thanks.
