Ditto. I bought 2 VR tonight with Hilton Amex and had no issues.

I won't start worrying until something similar happens with respect to CVS. |
It is possible that the OP may have heard that..
But didnt see any problems with my purchases today.. picked $4K in VRs today.. |

Point taken sir
In the thread on mint coins, we had a newbie come in and claim that it was coming to an end. Whether he was right or it was simply coincidence, the mint did come to an end shortly thereafter, so I've learned never to discount newbies, especially because a newbie here probably has a lot of experience somewhere else. Interestingly, after the mint, we never heard from him again. Bottom line, feel free to hang around for a while. Mike |

No problems this morning buying four VRs at two different locations.
I told the cashier that apparently there was a memo from Corporate and she should have the store manager call to confirm. She said she would pass along the information. |

Guess I better go to CVS and purchase more VRS today. A couple of weeks ago, OP wrote that the CVS in San Diego decided to go "cash only"....panic mode for me as I am in CA so I purchased the last $1500 to meet min spending for AOR in March.

One more data point - Hilton Amex @ CVS last evening for 2 VRs $500 each, no issues at all. The sky seems to be holding up.

Purchased at 2 different locations in VA this AM. No problems, other than the clerks were annoyingly chatty.
|
I went to CVS last night, no signage. I realized that I didn't have the credit card I wanted to use, so I didn't purchase anything. I'm going tonight to make a purchase.
