I wouldn't recommend doing that, as it against the T&Cs of your card, and, I don't think stuff like that should be talked about on the forums because it usually gets a thread locked.
Although, I didn't know you could get "Cash Back" at a store with a credit card (with the exception of things like the walmart credit card @ walmart). The only way I could think of would be to run it as a debit and put in your PIN, but I didn't know you could do that either, and if you did, wouldn't discover realize it since it is a PIN based transaction and automatically put it on your statement as a cash advance? Which would then result in you being charged a cash advance fee...

Actually, I called them twice before I started doing it and asked very specifically if it was against the terms and conditions. They said that as long as I am not sending the money to myself, it is not against the terms and conditions. So I send it to someone else who then withdraws it and hands it to me. I have reason to be sending that person money anyway, so there is plausible deniability if they ever decide to question it.

It's called Cash Over Purchases and is supported at select retailers. I do not know if Cash Over generates rewards.

I meant specifically sending it to yourself 
If you're not doing that then it's all good

Yea, I looked up the cash over thing via Discover and its not supported by all retailers...not like Target or anything. I noticed it was just grocery stores on the list. Anyway I'm not sure if a cash over purchase is treated as a cash advance. LOL. I've never used a cash advance...its confusing!
It says at the bottom under the "FAQ" that there is no fee, it isn't considered a cash advance, and it shows up as part of your purchase.
