Wal-Mart prepaid Visa Question for Pokerstars

I have given up on epassporte but have heard you can stop by Walmart and by a prepaid VISA card and you that for pokerstars. Has anyone had success or failure with this method? If success did you get the money instantly or did you have to wait for a couple of days?

I guess I have never bought one before. I just assumed if was 50 dollars for a 50 dollar prepaid credit card. How much do they charge?

they are not making their money on volume.

How do you know that. The walgreens that I shop at was out of the $100.00 cards. The cashier says they run out everyweek (almost). When I purchased my $50.00 card I got the last one. The cashier says they sell a lot of the prepaid visa's plus other brands on the shelf. The cost for a $50.00 visa gift card was $4.95. A little high but 'fast and furious'.
