Since October 12, 2015, the prepaid REDcard (Redbird) can only be loaded at Target with cash. It can still be loaded online with a bank-issued debit card, up to $200/day and $1K/month.

Therefore, for MS (manufactured spending) Redbird is now considered dead. RIP!

Sounds like someone has a fan base.  I thought per forum rules only Dan was allowed to have one

More like, people like to see cm turn a thread into a popcorn thread, then as an added bonus we get to see him blow a gasket when the thread goes to js and post counts are slashed ;D

Those are the same people who call in on glitches, aren't they?

$5k/$500 = 10 trips
$5k/$200 = 25 trips

I hope you are a Nets season tickets holder...

While that is the max, a 200 GC from Staples is 1k points, so it's the same amount of points as $1k CC load, which is what you had in bklyn. (Although at a cost of .7cpp instead of free).

When two or more idiots that think they are never wrong try to convince the other they are right.

So what do us Brooklyn folks do now? They always want a name on card
Harlem also told me no GCs.
But Bronx had no issue swiping GC.

Ask them when you buy something with a Target GC do you require a name on it?

Bronx took $1500 from me two days ago , and I think she would have done 10K but I was afraid the
$2500 a day total at Target was hard coded . Did not ask for ID . Gotta love the Bronx .
