I think I'm going just going to send them through Evolve or buy cards that are Bluebird loadable.

Sure it does.

Try calling the number on the back of the card.

What's the easiest or even not so easy way to cash out a vanilla visa debit gift card?

I got one as a gift and rather then be busy keeping track of the balance I want to just cash it out but so far everything I've tried has failed. Google says you can load it into paypal or venmo and transfer it that way but both of those no longer allow anonymous cards. I even tried donating the full amount to a few different tzedaka orgs but they too did not allow it, the transaction keeps getting declined. I thought at first something was wrong with the card itself but when I check the balance on vanillagift.com it's all good and active.

So, I'm truly stuck short of going to a physical store but even then, I don't know what I would get to make it worth it.  :-\
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

would your local grocery let you spend it all at once and put the $ on your account?

I've also loaded these on to my amazon balance
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Or you can add to paypal and split the payment...

In the past I tried using them on Charidy campaigns online, but they got declined. It worked when I used them over the phone.

For some reason you just reminded me, I once miscalculated and left over $.20 on a gift card. I tried it on a NYC speeding ticket (camera) and it worked. It didn't add any service charges for that amount either, though I paid it for the other $49.80.
