Now go use it at CVS for $50 of whatever. Except GCs.

Ah, got it. So you don't add the code online. You use the actual receipt to buy stuff.

Weird that it's not reflected online. What are people supposed to do, walk around with a bunch of receipts with $3 and $5 etc worth of extra bux?

must be registered/activated first

I meant cashing out should have same rules. Now, I tried to use as debit card after registering and setting pin, and it didn't work. When I used as credit it worked, but each card only had $145.05 on it. It could be that debit won't do that (swipe for 145 when you tell it 150).

is the second 4.95 from time if purchase or registering online?

I heard it's from purchase.
But, apparently by me I got charged $4.95 anyways. I used about 12 hours after purchase and 2 hours after registering online... So the cards cost me $9.90 each and I got $50 ecb - still good, but paypal must make a killing on these... (including ppl not using right away and getting charged multiple fees)

Where is the best place to buy money orders?

I know the USPS offers them for $1.20, but Dan had said $0.58 cents somewhere.

Is there a national chain of stores, or somewhere in NE that allows purchase of money orders for less than $1.20?

I guess there is WM for $0.90...

I don't think that USPS will allow debit, (Marc's won't either). Pathm@rk is $.99

USPS will accept debit: https://www.usps.com/shop/money-orders.htm

Pathmark is a good one, thanks.

It seems the CVS shows his extrabucks balance.

Doesn't work for me. Anyone else?

Just tried it. It shows my rewards available but it doesn't include a link or anything that would allow me to redeem.

I never end up redeeming any of the rewards that print out since I don't like carrying those books that print out at the register

Where in the app are you going?

Extracare-->My Savings & Rewards?

I went to 5 CVS's in LI last night and none of them had the Paypal debit cards... Ending up with a couple of Amex gift cards with $0 fee just so my trip wouldn't be a total waste.

The extra bucks rewards shows on the bottom:

Still don't see how it can be redeemed with the app and not the receipt.

What do you do with Amex gc's? I thought amex has no pin...

I bought the two cards, but I still don't see it on the app. Maybe it takes awhile...

AJK, the 50 ecb should have printed out - I do not use the cvs app - no use. If you bought the card and put 150+ on the 50 dollar ecb will print

AJK · « **Reply #76 on:** November 25, 2013, 01:33:15 PM »

Yeah, I have the $50s on the receipts.

Just mind boggling that CVS would require you keep every receipt to actually redeem these things.

Makes perfect sense to me.

AJK · « **Reply #78 on:** November 25, 2013, 01:36:03 PM »

Of course, from that perspective.

Might as well have the airlines require paper tickets, which, if lost, are totally void and require a new purchase.

Technology is a wonderful thing.

Paper tickets were able to be used by anyone. Far better for the airlines to have etickets and lock them to one person
