i got one from rebate in the US...thinking the funds would be in USD...tried ordering amazon.COM GC and after checkout I ended up cutting it up (had my name on so was just super cautious)....found out later it was declined because of the exchange.

now I'm stuck with a cut up GC that can only be used online...

but to answer your question Costco is your safest bet...just make sure you tell the cashier the exact amount on it before she swipes or it'll automatically decline if it's over.
