I am sure you are joking and are aware that OD registers would not ring those up since they won't even ring up the one's that were in there store if you happen to find them hidden somewhere in their store, correct?

You know what's funny, my local OD Supervisor said the same thing, we'll stock with newly designed cards.

Then what's the point of this forum? If we're not going to share ideas then everyone might as well walk away from this part of FT. These deals come and go this has been going on for quite awhile and eventually it was going to die just like every other deal. I've been around FT long enough to know another deal will come along soon and everyone will just ride it out for as long as it lasts.

I would love for IB to stop with Google indexing, and perhaps that is something we can request as a community - maybe they can block Google access to the deal discussion forums across FT. The blogger issue is something I have no solution for.

Google indexing drives traffic to their site and increases their ad revenue. Why would a company want to limit revenues to keep a few people happy(thoses few probably dont click thru many ads either). any one of us is free to start our own bb and run it under the radar

I think you are speaking about a different product. VR will not go thru the registers. That doesnt stop me from saying that personal attacks are forbidden on FT, otherwise I have some prepared prose for you.

went to my local OD yesterday. Everythings are not on rack except 1 rack that are not near to the main rack filled with the blue amex prepaid.
I hesitate to take them, but probably will go tomorrow (after my ink statement closed).
IMO, the $500 gift cards are done with OD. I am seeing $200 GC now for $6.95 fee.
so, i think they are going like staples. Of course, I wished differently.
