For all of you with reps at the mall that know you. Are there other reasons for that than expediting order pick up?

I ask about the rep because yesterday I went by to pick up three cards and the girl worked sorta scoffed at having to pay a $4 activation fee on each one. She gave me the managers card and said they could get me a way lower fee.
I’m not sure if she thought I was actually trying to buy 100 cards or if this particular place offers discounts to those buying a few cards at a time.
Ill send them an email and try to find out.

I called my go-to SM today and asked about the $1K GC's. Was told they know nothing about it.

My Simon mall reps have not heard anything
Southern California here. My mall reps tell me they haven't heard of 1k promo. What to do? Is this limited promo geographically? Anyone else from California heard of promo in their Simon mall?
