The easiest solution, of course, is to get yourself a gift certificate. It also cleans up your CC statements not to have all those tiny charges on it.

Yeah -- although I haven't had a charge rejected, my hubby is growling at the large number of small charges on the credit card. I wish that Amazon would allow me to accumulate a bunch of Kindle books into one "order" and submit it all at once. I'd still like to take advantage of the "Buy it now" option directly from the device, but it's rare that I buy just one book when I'm roaming on the web site.
