Thanks for the help :D

EDIT: va92bronco said the richmond store, in fact, is not open yet. I may be parked alexandria traffic some time ;-)

The Alexandria RD is right off 495 & Eisenhower Ave so no need to go into Alexandria proper. It's an easy on/off

If you aren't set up to buy stuff on credit or be tax exempt its very simple. My RD card has the name of the organization on it, not a person. Anyone carrying it can shop there. Get a business owner to sign up for a non credit account and ask for extra cards. There is no charge.

Hmmm. So the card doesn't have a persons name on it, only the business name and they only ask for the card at the front door?

Yes. They may scan the card at check out, but if you aren't charging stuff on the card, they aren't concerned about who holds it. My card doesn't have a person's name, and isn't signed, so anyone can carry it. I got 5 cards, so my teammates all have them too.

As others have pointed out, any business license will do. It does NOT have to be a food related business.

Funny, I hadn't heard about this until today while in RD. But, I didn't hear about it from them. I heard about it from another Brethren who I bumped into in front of the Brisket.

When I got to RD today, I went to the desk, showed my card and asked for a day pass. The lady behind the counter said that one was already on the screen. I was good to go. No mention of this.

Bummer!

jmcrig · 10-21-2012, 12:07 AM

Went to RD today and used my RD card with KCBS on it. No problems at all. They took my money just like usual.

SmokeFan · 10-21-2012, 04:52 AM

Sorry Brethren. It's all my fault. See, I just got a KCBS membership last week expressly for RD access. Figures it would go away. Didnt even get to go there once. I'm still gonna try it next week though.

It seems not everyone is getting turned away, its worth a try if you don't have to drive too far.

I did the same thing, you can get a license without a health inspection, all they want are the $$$, dont try to sell food with it though, and watch what kind of taxes they will expect. You know government agencys

shirknwrk · 10-21-2012, 09:29 PM

I show my KCBS card and get a one day pass. No discount. Pay taxes. Never offered a permanent card. OK by me... Just like the selection and prices. Has anyone been rejected for a one day pass?

The RD in Mesa, AZ. just preferred to give out permanent cards. They felt it was easier for them. Using the card with KCBS on it, they automaticly collect the sales tax. If you're spending money with them, they like it. There's a lot of competition for the food dollars in Phoenix. Sams, Costco, RD, and 5 grocery chains.
