But warning to the rest of you, Capital One seems to be taking note of "SIMON GC VOLUME." To that end, you might want to avoid buying online.
There once was a credit named Spark
Whose use one would have thought was a lark
But when the Rats did appear
The result was bad, I fear
For their bite left a gash on the card
