Philadelphia is dead as of 8am on 4/1. Cash only, although the cashier refused purchase-- I can't confirm a hard stop.

Good news- found VR
Bad news- cash only

NY and NJ at 7:00am

Over for me.

Didn't see a post but thanks to whoever added the map point for CID, still curious how long it'll last as I had just been looking at ramping up

This AM I told the manager all about MS, then asked about the memo, to which she said, OHHHH YEAH! That! well now that you brought it up, let's make GCs be cash only too! I will call all the other stores. Thanks!

:D

Noticed there were a few of you from the Twin Cities. In case you still need them - Last night, the Blaine CVS was stocked. At least 30 VRs left. The Mounds View and White Bear Lake CVSs are completely out.

Hey this morning I've been wondering what I should do with the 300 or so blank VRs I have in my car. Any ideas? :D

I hope you offered to help with the calls. There are a lot of stores than need to be informed. And can they easily match the DL scan with the CC used? I think the credit card issuers probably should be told who has been buying VRs (they probably know but this would be useful confirmation)

Register Hard Stop on Cape Cod, MA for VR.

Onward and upward.

Any success in NYC today?

That the infamous stroller you used to haul millions in dollar coins to the bank? I hear the Smithsonian wants it for an exhibit along with the famous COSTCO ring.:p

I'll try later this evening. Sounds bad from the reports above. I had success ~8pm last night.

Still going in DFW
 
Datapoint: Just bought 3k VRs in DFW at 7:30a...went as usual.

Hard stop in Orlando this AM. Bummer, I was hoping to get at least 5K in for April (My Amex Cash CL). After the denial, I grabbed a couple Gift Cards and the cashier refused to do the sale with a credit card. Its going to be a tough road ahead convincing the tellers the difference in products. :mad:
