I have a TD literally on my block, but the closest WM is an hour from me (NYC). Too bad. The $60 ATM limit doesn't seem to make any sense, seems incredibly low compared to the $2000 limit on the card. Oh well!

To be fair, in a major urban centre, this is non-trivial. I've not found a single place in urban Boston

Works just fine. ^ TD Go nets me ~$14 after fees for load.
Not amazing, and I wish I earned UR's... :td: Helps cut costs from other Buxx.

People are just afraid to think outside the box. You don't need Wally World. There is places that do MO.

Yes, I always read the Wiki before posting and it was only specific for the TD buxx for MO at USPS. I was referring to using the other buxx cards for purchasing MO at USPS.
I dont have the TD card (yet) as its too restrictive with the $60 ATM limit and no WM to unload in NYC

Well won't all of those code as a cash advance and count against the $60/week? Isn't the whole point of a grocery store or a walmart that it codes as a regular purchase?

How can a debit card code a cash advance?:confused:

Well isn't that how the USPS MOs count against the $60/wk limit? You're "withdrawing cash?"

If it makes you feel any better, the profit that can be had from the TD Go card is minimal.

Well, isn't the TD the best of the Buxx cards? 9K/month limit with 3 "kids," and then just $1 to load...

Don't know about td bank but mo and bb load don't count against ATM limit for USB

Yes, but compared to other MS methods, the Buxx cards provide minimal profit. They are great for meeting minimum spending requirements, but are not as profitable as other forms of MS. Do not take this the wrong way, Buxx cards are great, but if you are unable to get them, I would not stress out (at least not as much as if you had no access to MOs, GCs, etc.).

By the way, you could have more kids. Try Jon Doe and Jon A. Doe ;)

Why? Can't you swipe a Buxx card at WM just like you can with a gift/debit card?
