Who uses credit cards for Wii points?

I use a credit card to get all of my Wii points. It saves a long drive to Wal*Mart. And it saves me gas.

Who else does the same?

Hmm i bought some points the other day and noticed it said the price was in USD (Us dollars?). I live in canada. Now i thought that i was saving a few by not buying a points card and paying gst on it at say at eb games or somin. But if I am spending 20 $ american thats alot more than 20 $ canadian plus tax. What gives? Shouldn't it be priced out per region? I doubt the Uk Wii owners have to pay in american money for there points online, why should us canadians have to pay in American money?bballin420

I thought they were priced at 20$ in stores? Maybe I am wrong then.bballin420

Yeah, it's 20 dollars for  2000 points you shouldn't have to pay more than that in American dollars. Thats wierd. O_o

nintendo charges you the sales tax of the state that your credit card is registered in. I am from NY, but i go to college in RI and i get charged NY sales tax of 8.625%. still beats driving to target though :-)dxflounder
