Question
Back in the mid and late nineties, my GF had a FNANB visa or MC, and I remember she was able to pay her credit card balance at any Circuit City store.
The best part is that they accepted credit cards! So, she would use her FNANB card for all her purchases, enjoy the 25-day grace period, and then pay off the balance in full with, say, a Discover card (or some other visa/MC). Then she enjoyed another 25-day grace period.
Does this still work? It would be a cool way to earn miles, and then float the money for free for an extra month.
[Just to clarify, when she paid her balance using another credit card, that transaction was coded as a purchase, not a cash advance, hence she enjoyed a second grace period.]
