Buying a Disney GC from The Disney Store online...Rebates???

[kristenrice]

I use MyPoints, Ebates, TCM and Sunshine Rewards. If I buy a gift card from the Disney Store, does anyone know if any of these sites will give a rebate?

I know it won't be much since I'm only buying $50 worth, but I thought I would check here first.

I have two Disney Visa Cards (and therefore, two separate rewards cards) and I want to use the rewards to buy 2 $25 cards for my kids.

Thanks for asking because I am curious too!
I actually thought about taking my $25 swag bucks gift cards thru ebates to buy a Disney gift card off Target then Disney store thru Ebates to combine 2 $25 into one? Wonder if that would work lol

Let me add that I read the T&C on each site and they all exclude gift cards, but as we know with Ebates and Target, that is not always the case. That's the reason I am asking. I've always received MyPoints when I purchase Target gift cards using Target gift cards (i.e. combining them) so I think I may just use them for the Disney Store too.

Let's put it this way, if it auto-credits, then you will get your rebate. If you have to file a trouble ticket, you will not get anything because the T&C for each of those rewards programs specifically exclude GC purchases from earning cash back. You stand to lose nothing by giving it a try!

Oh, trust me...there's no way I would file a trouble ticket for a gift card purchase. I filed one with Ebates once when I didn't receive credit for my purchase (non-gift card) and they credited me. Then I realized that I had purchased dog food and that pet supplies are excluded...I felt so bad!

Thanks for clearing this up! I have yet to buy gift cards yet so this helped a lot!

I'll let you know. I ordered a Disney GC from Target.com (using my target card, saving 5%) and went through ebates. I'll let you know if I get a credit from ebates too!
