Pre-Paid Cards that look identical to jewel cards

I was at Target the other day and pleasantly surprised to see the $20 Pre-Paid Cards available. I redeemed it when I got home expecting to receive an UNDAUNTABLE OPAL, but to my surprise I received a downgraded polar cat with an with an undesirable pet card. These Pre-Paid Cards were made to LOOK IDENTICAL to the cards that five the may cast jewels. (I’m sure this was no accident); this could almost be viewed as an overtly deceptive practice. I am certain there have been (or will be) many others fall victim to this somewhat questionable marketing strategy. I guess this just goes back to the old adage, BUYER BEWARE!!!

Although it wasn’t a total waste, I did get 10K Crowns for over twice the price I typically pay for them online. (KI, you need make the two cards visibly distinguishable)

Hi TalonsShadow! I checked with our team and it looks like these particular cards have been the same for years. In any case, we apologize about the similarities here :(.
