CVS Gift Card

This is kind of funny imo, just saw that you can use CVS gift cards to make purchases on the MCOC webstore.
I actually have a $50 CVS giftcard from I don't even know when and I don't plan on using it.
Should I buy the Jean Gray bundle? It's only a 0.20% chance to get a 7 star, but I'll get six cracks at it!

    Yeah, but I really want JG and feel lucky for whatever reason... Just need to find that gift card and burn it on horrible RNG. You only live once I guess, unless you have death immunity...

    Now you know why you can pay your social security debt, anti virus renewal, microsoft support and extended car warranty with Target and bEst Buy gift cards.
    Joking aside I find it extremely weird that a transaction processing site will take 3rd party gift cards.

    I guess Xsolla has a pretty extensive partnership network with other payment processors. I don't think it actually manages retailer gift cards, but it must have agreements with the companies that do.

    There is a black market of gift cards related to scams, not saying they are scamming; but they are not helping.

    If I had a gift I'd use it, but probably on the Platinum Track due to value, but that is just me.

    You can save it for Jean if you want to, didn't know that was possible

    If you believe it, then you will perceive it.
    If you perceive it, then you will achieve it.
    If you achieve it, then you will receive it.
    Set the bar high because then you can achieve anything you want.
    Your mindset is a large part of winning. How do you win in life? You live life to the fullest.

    Actually, it did dawn on me, gift card or not, I just spent $50 on a character in a mobile game, and it took the heavens showering me with grace to even get that.
    Instead of celebrating, I should be looking hard in the mirror.
    But that seems kind of painful, and someone in another thread mentioned that the Bastion webstore tracker is coming soon. Wonder if Xsolla will accept a Hooters groupon....

    DO NOT REDEEM!

    But the only CVS near me (San Francisco) closed down due to rampant retail theft.
    It's not like I can use the gift card anywhere else, or at least, do I really want to be the guy standing on the sidewalk saying, "Hey, do you want a great deal on a CVS gift card??"
    Didn’t see this.
    You can trade it in for somewhere else. Or just mcoc it.

    Retail theft in San Fran? Nooo.

    I'm just glad she doesn't need the sig ability.
    $50 to get the 7*.
    $600 to get the dupe.
    That's how they really get you. Sunk cost trap.

    My guess is the reason they accept CVS gift cards is because they have a relationship with CVS to allow CVS to process cash transactions for them. If you attempt to buy something from xSolla with “cash” they will direct you to a payment partner where you can take an emailed invoice and pay at the register. I know CVS is one of those partners, and 7-11 is another one (I tested these forms of transactions when the store first released to see how they work and what the failure modes were).
