eg. Taking a vgc from walmart and loading it at another walmart or even safeway? (all the while making sure its a brand that both stores carry)
I do this pretty frequently with the SS VGCs in my area and don't have any problems. One of the grocery stores in my area that I buy SS VGCs carries the $5.95 fee cards in abundance and I'll throw a couple extra in my pocket to use at the CVS stores in my area that are often out of SS VGCs or only have OneVanillas.
One of the managers at a FD I load my Serve cards at also gave me 100 of the $4.95 fee SS VGCs there for $20 since she said "no one ever buys them here anyhow" when I propositioned her to sell me some of them at her store. I value these pretty highly since they can be purchased/loaded at a common gas station chain in my area and I have some good "gas" multiplier cards for cash back, airline miles, and hotel points. Unfortunately the chain tends to be out of the $4.95 load fee SS VGS most of the time so I have to get them and bring them in from somewhere else, but if they are in stock I just buy them there.
