Have you heard of any success purchasing larger/ish items, requesting gift receipt

I bought some of the MC gcs from Office Depot as part of their sale (that died way too early! )and went to liquidate them at Walmarks. Not as easy as the Visas BTW. I kept getting errors and the change pmt method wouldn't come up and the cancel didn't get me there either. I chatted with the checkout lady and I asked about their "card cashing" service listed on the wall. She said that my cards wouldn't work but I could just go buy something and bring it to her and she would give me the cash. I said I have 6 $200 cards and would that be a problem? She said "no."

I bought 2 laptops using all 6 cards and walked right back to customer service for the return.

Walked out with $1200 cash and a smile.
