Topic Wiki

Since Vanilla Reloads are no longer able to be purchased with a CC at CVS or any other location, this thread is for historical purposes only.

If I would write where VR is available, by tomorrow it will never be available again. So instead, we will nominate this thread as the place where everyone can complain that there's no VR, and everyone will be happy.

And it was good.


Regarding OneVanilla (OV) and other Vanilla branded GCs:

1. These are not Vanilla Reloads. You are in the wrong thread to learn about them.

2. As long as you are here, they no longer work at WM to load to BB at the cashier or ATM, nor will they work there for MOs. Your best bets are to use Evolve (there is a thread for that), Amazon Payments (there is a thread for that, too), or use them for regular spending in stores or online. At some grocery stores customer service desks, you can use OV to buy a MO.

now I know who clears them out before I get there  >:(
Can you save me a couple next time? :) You can even hide them and pm me where they are.

(kidding, but hey I wouldn't complain!)
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

A friend of mine just found VR at CVS in NYC.
He was able to buy $5k worth all with CC.

Many cashiers load w no problem.  I've done it many times. (not in the last 2 weeks) 

profile the cashier.  she/he should know enough to be able to do it, yet not bossy enough to care about gift cards uh debit cards.  If the machine lets, she does.  Also best not a harried cashier or time.

I though   its YMMV and HUCA depending  who the cashier is.

Wow, Kol Hakavod. I hate walking into there. They made sure to make me feel uncomfortable. Now I drive a little further out, much friendlier, and nearby VR available to boot.
