They must be debit card transactions. You cannot get cash back on a credit card transaction. You can get a limited amount of cash back with a debit card if you ask the cashier.
I can't believe that others have never gotten cash back with a credit card. I don't know if Discover Card is different than M/C or Visa, but I use it primarily because I get 1% back on my purchases. We shop at Walmart at least once a week or more for years and when I swipe my Discover Credit Card at the checkout terminal it always asks if I want cash back and if so, how much. On a few occasions I've gotten $20 or $40 back if for example I needed money for gas. My debit card is with Sun Trust where I have my checking and I've never used it to make a purchase because it's directly tied to my checking account and it could get cleaned out if someone got my pin number.
