Oiy.

Might as well have frequent flyer points awarded as vouchers, so that, if you lose them, that $10,000 you just spent in 90 days for 100,000 points, is now gone.

Er, maybe I should stop giving them ideas...

All I can say if I could actually use the cvs coupons I would shop there more often. The coupons usually expire 10 minutes after they print and the extra care rewards are a hassle to keep on you.

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

Pathmark is a good one, thanks.
I never knew that so why is Bluebird/Walmart such a big deal. Is it just the few cents for the money order we all are going nuts over?

Real debit, not a gift card that says debit on it.

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

Looks like you can print the coupons from a computer. Still annoying but better than keeping the receipts on you...

Theoretically, do the extra bucks have to be used completely, or can one buy something for $49 and let the other $1 go to waste?

In my experience you cannot use a larger ECB than your purchase.  So just use a cheap filler to get you up to the full amount if you're right below.

What a run down!

Can you assign more than one card to a single PP account?

I'm a little confused. On the main site Dan wrote that in General Paypal has shut ppl down for such activity. When you register your card does that mean that it risks your PP account from being closed down? or just a risk with this card?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Do you have to link the card to a paypal acct? I am reading on DDFMT about having to cancel or close the debit card after you buy the money order?
What happens if you don't cancle or close it and you have drained all the funds ($150) from it?

Guys - use a different PP account, and yes if you want to use this without having to beg the CS agent to make the card a prepaid debit card - then link to a new account and I had no issue. IME anyway! The whole process took no time, once I figured it out. Was going to test if I could get a fourth card as I now have no "open" ones, but they seem to be sold out around here now  :)

That's probably a bigger reason to get your pp account closed

Why are the being linked to a PayPal account at all? It wasn't necessary for me to use the debit card.

To make a pin.
