Disney Gift Card Deals

[justreading]

I asked in the BJ's thread but anyone know if you can use BJ's gift cards to buy Disney Gift Cards? Thanks!

I'm not sure because I've always used my visa, but I don't see why not. Especially if you are doing on-line.

Let me know if you try. I can find Bjs gift cards at a discount and then get the discount from them on Disney. For someone like me not in the US that is a good deal.

Just throwing it out there, but if anyone has access to a Meijer Grocery Store they have $5 off every $50 you spend in gift cards and that includes Disney gift cards. This is 10% in savings.

FYI: The Meijer deal is good through 4/8 but not available online. Maximum is 10 rewards per customer. Also it is redeemed as a discount on future purchases at Meijer. Still a good deal if you live near one

I thought BJ's disney gc required membership. That's now another great source.

I just received mine in the mail and do not have a membership. I cashed out for Swagbucks for a $25 eMastercard and used that to purchase the Disney card from BJs for $23.99 with free shipping. Once that shipped and the charge was taken from the eMC, I then loaded the remaining $1.01 onto my Amazon account. Worked out great for me!

For those who bought the Best Buy gift card promo a few weeks ago, don't forget to watch your email for the Promo gift card which should come Saturday or Sunday. If you don't see it, check your junk or spam box.

You only need membership to buy Disney gift cards in the store itself, online you do not need membership.

We leave for HHI in just over 2 weeks and I did a little math. We normally take one family vacation per year. In 2016, that trip was in October. That meant that I only had about 6 months to save for our 2017 trip. I am proud to say that of our $2000 budget (which doesn't include the $550 it will cost to board the dogs), I was able to accrue over $1000 in FREE money! I earned $600 in Disney gift cards through gift card churning (which started with gift cards earned for free from Perk, Swagbucks and Target FWP), $265 in credit card rewards, $135 in cash/gift cards from Swagbucks and Target FWP, $20 in Chick-fil-a gift cards from SpeedyRewards, and about $30 worth of Plenti points to use towards gas at Mobil/Exxon on the way. The other $1000 came from money I earned by donating plasma twice a week. We will pay for the dog boarding out of the vacation fund, which will still leave us with a nice nest egg for our 2018 trip, which won't be until October. If I can keep covering half of our vacation costs without having to delve into the actual vacation account (a savings account that gets a direct deposit every two weeks), eventually we may have enough to take two family vacations per year!

(EDITED FOR FULL DISCLOSURE: Ok, I will explain the "extra" fall trips in my signature...I get a longevity bonus at work in the spring and I have used it in the past to pay for a fall trip for my birthday. If I am the only one in the family who travels, then ALL of the funds come from the longevity bonus and my plasma account.)

Have tried going through ebates? I know sometimes GCs dont count but sometimes they sneak through

Yes, I did. I received $.24.

Yes, I did. I received $.24.

Great! Thanks for all the info. I think I'll be using this path from now on!

@lorijohnhill and @Lvsdisney - have either of you ever used BJs gift cards to purchase the Disney GCs online? Is that possible?

I asked this same thing a few days ago in 2 different threads. Interested to know the answer. Anyone shop at BJ's regularly that wants to take the risk?

Do you know if the discount on future purchase can be used to purchase another gift card?

Target policy question - sorry if this was discussed earlier. This thread is so voluminous. Went to Target yesterday and tried to buy 7 $50 disney gc (they didn't have $100 gc). When I tried to check out they got the store manager to ring up my order. I was paying 100% with my target red card. He said there was a limit to what I could purchase. He said I could only purchase 5 gc. When I asked if new policy, what conditions, etc. He had no further info.

Meanwhile I purchase 10, $100 gc online yesterday with target red card with no problem.

Was there a store policy change? red card policy change? changes etc?

Thanks. The last several trips we have paid for the entire trip with gcs from Target. We have another trip coming up in May and I need a lot more cards but am now worried I will be stopped by Target.

This is not actually store policy. Each STL can choose to limit quantities but I don't see why they would have bothered with such a low dollar amount.

I was curious about this too. I started an online order and got to the payment options and didn't see any place to enter a BJ's gift card as payment. I just checked the Help Center and it says they are not able to process payment using a BJ's gift card online.

I don't have a membership so I don't know if it's different in-store.

Well that answers my question! We don't have BJ'S here so I just buy the gift cards online.

I don't believe the Meijer $5 bonus can be applied to gift cards. I'm thinking last time I did it, it didn't give me the option to use the bonus $ until I added an item that wasn't a gift card.
