I asked in the newbie thread and it wasn't answered.
Do I swipe the same $500 VISA gift card 4 times and enter the PIN 4 times?
Or do I need four $100 VISA gift cards?
You only do this with cards that are limited to $99/swipe. Keep swiping the same card over and over until you deplete it, then move on to the next. You'll have some small amount left on it at the end, maybe $2 or $4, so save it for later to drain in a grocery store.
