<prompt> Human: Ie if Im buying a new laptop, which is a qualified expense, for say 1k, would I be in violation of any law or anything if I just put it on my credit card, transferred 1k from my 529 to my checking account, then paid that 1k portion of my card statement. Provided Im keeping records of it all, I just want to make sure Im within the bounds of the law.  <response>: If your 529 allows you to withdraw as such, theres nothing stopping you legally from doing so and its well within SOP for a 529. Just make sure to keep your receipts and withdraw the exact amount so that you dont run into taxes and penalties on any excess amount withdrawn.
