I just want to clarify on "Gerald Starbuck's" issue. Not only does he seem to think that everyone is out to lie to and trick him 🙄 (I'm sure they made an honest mistake that he wants to think was intentional). He says they wouldn't accept any payment other than a gift card, this is simply not true.
