Have tried two Dollar General stores in two states. They clearly said no CC. Cash only. One cashier (very young girl) said No I don't want to even try as I will have to cancel the $ 500 transaction and that will raise fraud flags in my company and may get me fired. I thanked and exited.

I've had no luck at Weekly's shell pump places here in the southeast. They all say cash only verbally, although I bet their registers will take them. I'm going to start looking at Travel america. I also heard that the chicken place has them, and there happens to be one in a town I'm going to in Saturday.

I have had the same DG experience with cardboard VRs - register level shut down AND angry cashiers because they will have to do some explanation for voided $500 charges. Tried it at 4 or 5 locations with same result. Multiple FDs refused to sell them with CC but from what I recollect, it was the cashier-level (no, can't do), not at the register level. Is there hope?
Between myself and my parents, we cleared at least a 100 VRs and ReloadIts this year (they agreed for a mini AOR each with a couple of cards we needed to hit the minimum spend on). 2BBs, 4MVDs.

I've been using Cumberland Farms near me and have had no issues. Last purchase was about a week ago. Using my Ink to get 2% at gas stations.

I've tried at many different locations, and it didn't work. I do believe that you can use them to load a regular amex prepaid at those locations. Has anyone tried that?
