In my Targeted American Express Offer – Wholefoods Market post, I discussed purchasing a $75 gift card for the $10 back. It seems like the only location in Wholefoods to purchase the gift card is at the customer service desk.
First she asked to see my ID and compared it to the card. After that, she wrote down my driver’s license number! Had I known this would happen, I probably would have skipped buying the gift card and purchased $75 worth of goods.
When I questioned her, she gave me this story of how it’ll be locked in a locked drawer that only Wholefoods has access to and that it’s for a consumer protection. This is the first and last time purchasing a gift card directly from Wholefoods.
