Used to purchase $500 vgc for the grocery 5% CB at Kroger but don't anymore since the BHN cards don't work anymore at Walmart. So now I am limited to purchasing at CVS and Walgreens to earn 5% CB on drugstores.
Walmart's fees for VGCs/MCGCs are lower.
I really hate the high fees on the VGCs sold at CVS. $8.95 is outrageous
Those fees are now on the cards sold at Stop & Shop.

The closest you can get to 5% in-store at Walmart is with the US Bank Shopper Cash Rewards credit card.
4.41% after the $95 annual fee.
You get 6% up to $1500 spend per quarter.
