In that scenario I will try after 8 PM today...

Went to three different CVS today, spoke with three manager, none knows about the supposed cash only thing. They said if the rule were to be implemented, they would have gotten emails about it.

I don't know whether to kiss you or stone you, so I say Thank you.

For anyone who is posting this kind of information, please also post locations as well. This would be helpful in identifying if this is regional, or national.

Well, this started to get way too much publicity and was too easy. It seems that no one really ever tried to be discreet about this and that includes blogs and individuals buying large amounts at once.

That being said, I don't think that we are the reason behind the change, especially since all of the cards are going to cash only.

This is not the end of MS, it is the end of MS for dummies :)

It's a happy weekend for those icecream hackers. They will find tons of activated icecreams ready for them to steal!!

Talked to 4 CSRs between two stores in RDU and none had heard about cash only. Granted not mgmt, so taken it fwiw.

Can anyone confirm that the item # for VRs at CVS is 904509?

Few pages back. Several reports confirming this last night.

Just bought and cashier went through motions as usual. She didn't say and I didn't ask.

I was thinking just this as well. Holding on to an activate VR for 5 hours makes me nervous; imagine holding on to one for 2 days, or worse, a whole month!

That's usually my case. But fortunately for me not this time. It helped with my 4 US air cards. For once I came out ahead.

For those who have spoken with management at your CVS location, please update the Wiki with what information you got.

Personally, I believe this is a farce and anyone feeding it stating they have seen the memos at stores are just trolling. I may be proven wrong come Tuesday, but I'm holding out until then. I have nothing to lose by having faith and not letting it ruin the rest of my weekend. If I'm wrong, I'll apologize in advance to those I accuse, otherwise I hope that all feeding a lie like this are recognized and black listed.

While there is quite a bit of realism in the memo, there are also quite a few things that strike me as odd, not just about its composition, comparison to other CVS memos, but also in the details.

I think the biggest point to me is that Visa cards are not excluded (only MyVanilla VL is listed). While the standard Vanilla of course are not re-loadable cards, I believe that any possible risk/cost associated with selling the cards listed on the memo are true of the Visa cards as well.

As many have noted, if we can't buy VRs come 4/1, there are other methods - I can still go in and buy 5K worth of Visa cards. And yes, the Visa cards have an extra $1 margin on them - but I have a hard time believing that with processing $500 purchases that extra $1 makes much of a difference in overall strategy compared with their reloads.

Remember - this is meant to be a hard code in all registers - so as soon as the first person Tuesday morning purchases a single $500 card with credit, I will hold this myth busted.

I hope for all our sake's I'm right :)

So if it is true, I assume it will be OK to blacklist you, for accusing others?
