give us the cut/paste of the transaction detail on the web login version and the market name. it should give you some category detail. does it mention "specialty retail" or something like that?

Amex TC:
Examples of merchants where you will NOT earn additional rewards include:
- Specialty stores (e.g., fish markets, cheese shops, wine shops, and other specialty food stores)

also, you may have better luck calling to get an exception, but it wouldnt be ongoing. MR dept 1-800-297-3276
