If your charge posted after Saturday and was swiped on Saturday call 800-297-7500 (tell them you used your cards on Saturday, and also mention all your cards you used).

Does anyone have any experience with the Lakewood gift registry
I know that last year ppl purchased cards from them on SBS. I would imagine that it will be the same this year.

I keep getting
 "Sorry
This system cannot validate your Card information". Whats going on?
2 cards are getting the error and the others all worked...
Who can I contact in particular to hopefully get these two cards figured out? Something tells me the number on the back of the card will be the long route.
Tried them again this morning and they worked...

Amex has no idea whether they're open on Saturday. They only know that they meet Amex's "small business" qualifications. Case in point - It seems like half of the "small businesses" listed on Amex's map are doctor's offices.

I just read the offer terms at Amex Promo website.  One of the terms says:
4. Qualifying small business locations appear on the Small Business Saturday® Map, available beginning on November 21, 2013 at ShopSmall.com.

I've read in the past, even if it doesn't appear in the map, the transaction at any small business qualifies; however, it doesn't seem to be true any more.  Would anyone want to weigh on this?  TIA

Doesn't need to be on the map. Just needs to be a small business.

I spotted a Vons on the map in LA area. Mind you Vons has at leasat 20 locations in SoCal and I believe are owned by Safeway. Not such a "small" business.

How would a business confirm that purchases from them are elgible for the SBS promotion (if they are not on the map)?
