No. I tried $499. Good idea, though. Appreciate the suggestion...I'll think about it & probably give it a shot & report back w DP ...though I'm trying to avoid declines and draw attention at a friendly Publix. I thought the issues described above (buying MOs for $475 rather than $485 etc.) were all based around DPs from Winn Dixie?? Has anyone on this thread had success with $479 or $475 at Publix when previously receiving "Not Authorized" attempting $499? I'd really like to try this particular wally Variable MC at Winn Dixie myself but it's a far drive and WD's are an absolute mess at the Cust Svc counter. I suppose if a $499 attempt triggers the decline from the card side ie Pathward/InComm (rather than the Publix POS) then $479 would have a shot of working.
