Costco.com returns
« on: January 11, 2013, 02:32:04 PM »
So I overheard someone talking the other day that if you buy something at Costco.COM you can use a Mastercard. Then if you return the item to the warehouse, they have to give you back cash since their machine wont process anything but AMEX.

Anyone know if this is true? Good way to "launder" points if it is.

I guess the question is how much can you get away with without them banning you...

Getting a check in the mail is also doing the job fine for the CC spending
