Whooo hoooo! Haven't seen a cashback opportunity like this since the days of folks making those notorius German airport luggage cart runs! Anyone up for opening a few million PayPal accounts? Time to make some serious money.
Bloggers get ready to carry the story! Sunshine - can we get a picture of you smiling and holding up the $.29 in front of the PayPal headquarters?

Also, I don't believe their are monthly limits if you have a "verified" bank account with PayPal.
Personally, I will only be utilizing these reloads to hit min spends. Getting 504 points for 3.95 is just not worth my time and effort (and definitely not if the reload is 4.95!). Though this may change once I get a Hilton Amex.

Stopped at local Walgreens today & they just received the VR a couple days ago. Took one to the register & the screen said "...cash only..". I asked the lady to call a manager over & she said "no way around it...have to pay with cash". I'll try another Walgreens in a couple days & see if it's the same.
Wish we had CVS in Idaho. I may have to wait til January when I'm in Hawaii.

It appears they limit the # of search results so you might have to do a couple searches per letter. Type in "B" and you get :
B. MOSS - RETAIL CARD
to
BEAUMONT CHERRY VALLEY WATERDIST
The search adds an implicit wildcard only to the end of your search term.
So if you type Cherry you will find:
CHERRY CREEK VALLEY WATER CO
but not
BEAUMONT CHERRY VALLEY WATERDIST
Even if the company is in there some people find issues either with the account number they enter or the zip code they enter. If a listed payee won't work for you, just create a manual entry for the payee. Just be sure you add a few more days for delivery.

Has anyone actually had success getting Vanilla Reload's refunded? I called today and they went through this whole process about you need to send in copies of everything. It must have been the customer service rep first or he was just trying to stall me because he didn't make any sense whatsoever. (U.S. based rep too)
Anyone get refunds in excess of a few grand?

As in having vanilla send you a check for the balance on your vanilla reload card. They will also refund you the incomnn fee. That way, I don't have to put it on my BB and save a few bucks (x as many vanilla as I want) in the process.

Quick Questions.
Why can we just buy the green dot or Paypal prepaid card, load it into Paypal and then sweep the funds into our checking account. Paypal doesn't charge for that, do they?
We can buy them at all OD, but also staples and the other big office store.
What am I missing.
