No, it was until Sep 2nd - I loaded up for Sep and Oct, but might need few more fillups. My BBGC route seems to cause some issues recently, still on the fence. $100 VGC do not make much sense to me.

PS. New one is valid until 10/4, so first few days of Oct will be the sweet spot for me.

Thanks for the update. My account also has a "Save $5.00 when you buy TWO (2) $25 Staples Gift Cards" digital coupon as well.

Can you please explain BBGC route?

Mine too. Wish I saw it 3 day ago :)

Sure - buy BBGC and use them at Best Buy to buy something

Is BB allow to buy VGC with BBGC?

Read thru the bestbuy thread for info.

Just went to buy one (1) 500 USBVGC from Krg, same store I have usually been buying 3K at a time for months. The cashier made an elaborate display of asking "will you be paying with cash or debit" in a weird voice...

-Umm... credit?
-OH NO, you can't buy those with credit!
-oh wow, ok, is that a new policy?
-The cashiers have been doing it all wrong. They should never have been selling them for credit...

I say thanks guess I don't want it then, buy groceries, leave...

Like I said, I have been buying tons at this Krg. Lots of cashiers recognize me. Have bought at managers station many times...

Just hoping this is a case of a cashier needing to play the foil and not actual change of policy. Will try again later. Anyone else notice any Krg problems with CC?

As I am beginning to think about MS, I went to two local Krogers here in Athens... they both have a sign up on the gift card display indicating "Debit Card or Cash Only" for gift cards.

Always say debit when asked debit or credit, if they are small enough to figure out the difference great, but most don't even know the difference.

At my usual go-to Krogers today, there was a handwritten sign that said
"We are experiences difficulties with our prepaid gift cards (Visa/Mastercard), and they are unavailable for sale"

The entire rack had been emptied of all VGCs and MGCs.

This is one of the busiest Krogers in the system, located in the city where Krogers is headquartered, and in a neighborhood where a lot of the Kroger brass lives. The store tends to be on the forefront of current Kroger concepts. I surely hope that it's not the harbinger of the end of GCs at Krogers.

But I'm afraid that the clock is ticking on the apocalypse...

Business as usual at my location last night. Didn't really need one but thought I would test it out.

yeah, i don't need one right now either. Stopped by another Krg for 1 just to give a try and it was fine. Will just have to try to avoid that cashier when I go back to other store next time.

4x fuel pt on GC purchase coupon loaded for me. I had to refresh the site 3 times after getting errors but it finally worked.

Last month in some areas of the country, the 4X also worked on the VGC. Has anyone gotten lucky this time?

It worked for me this morning in Utah as it usually does. I got 4x on the two $100 fixed visa gift cards and the $50 Home Depot card. I bought. I did not get any fuel points on the two variable load visa gift cards I bought. It has been that way for me for months.
