One correction, you can load vanillas at KATE but at $49.99 per transaction.

As far as buying vanillas at CVS, in general, no i don't have issues with buying $2000 worth of VGCs at CVS. However some CVS stores are cash only. I've traveled my area and know the CVS' that have no issue with credit cards/AGCs. You should probably read the CVS thread here, http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/manuf...er-thread.html.

I added the 2000 point offer when spending $100 and received the points after buying two AGCs. Also earned 1000 on those. Going to use dh's account tomorrow. He has 500 on $20.

I have done a single $500 load last 2 days at RA by me for my citigold debit purchases. Both times $1000 was hard coded to not be accepted, but $500 no problem. So going forward, it looks like 1 $500 vgc per store? Do other stores allow more than$500, haven't seen that in this thread.

Anyone in Nova have any datapoints on RA loads? Specifically OV if possible? Focused on Arl and/or Tysons. Gebit allowed for serve load? limits? Nervousness? etc.

I've only done $500 loads per card. Will $500 x2 work?

Today, I used vanilla at RA, but did not go through even the total load is $500. Tried paypal, doesnt work either. Hope it's just an isolated incident.

Hopefully. I've been doing nothing but OV for the past couple of weeks, most recently 2 days ago.

Can Vanillas be used to buy money orders at WM or is that now dependent upon the location, luck, etc.?

Not looking for big-time churn. Just need to do about $5k in M$ to meet minimum spending. Thanks.

You won't be able to buy a money order with a vanilla card at Walmart.

Thanks. This is true for any gift card that says Vanilla on it? Can you still load up to $49.99 at a time from a Vanilla to a Bluebird at a cashier? (Sorry for the momentary WM-related threadjack.)

Ask them to split a transaction when buying a few items as a test. Then decide if it's worth it or it confuses the cashiers.

What I'm asking if it's possible to load $500 on one SErve, then immediately load another $500.
