Ok..
So I'm at the counter yesterday going to purchase a Kimber Micro 9 and I check with the wife, she says wait.. I'll buy it with my rewards card tomorrow. So I place a 24hr hold and walk out of store.
Today I come back, she is between a few scheduled events and is there to pay.
Background check comes back in about 10 minutes that I'm free and clear of everything as expected and we go up to pay.
Woman behind counter says "He has to pay it's for him." I call Bullbubblegum on that and ask why? That's the whole reason my wife is here because we were and are going to use her rewards Visa. No I'm told it's a Federal law. So now I've wasted an hour and a half of her time and she is livid... I'm about to go live on the roof because this contentious woman isn't happy....
I almost said "FK it" and walked out of the store as the rewards portion from the firearm brought it into a reasonable amount. See where I'm going with this?
Now it wouldn't have mattered if I swiped or she swiped her visa.... who's to judge? If I sign my name to the card vs her... right?
What ended up happening was me using my non-rewards visa to complete the transaction... both of us were pissed.
Was I being fed a line of bubblegum at the store?
