Thanks for the tip, OP. Last year a few of those showed up around NH. I ended up giving cold, hard cash for Xmas last year. Saved me $6 a card, so win-win, and I used the $6 to actually buy a Hallmark card.

You paid a fee to load a pre-paid card?

That's not...illegal, but I can't think of any major big box retailer using visa/mastercard gift cards that does this?

Uhhhhh, all the cards charge a fee to purchase them. Have you ever bought one?

Apparently not...or I'm crazy. I purchased a few vendor specific ones at walmart the other day, 50 each, and definitely was only charged 100 american pesos.
