Disney Gift Card Deals

[ksromack]

I noticed you have a girls' trip coming up in November. I will be there 11/29 through 12/3 with my sister and SIL to celebrate my 40th birthday. First time girls' trip!! Super excited.

We will he there nov 26-dec 4.....but this trip is just me and dh.

Just to clarify...I have done the dosh deal 4 times now. Each time I have bought $200 in Sam's gift cards only and received the 10%. In order to get the uber credits on top of that you have to purchase another item, which i have done with my husband account and different cc. Buying the 200 sams gift cards then buying the disney gift cards is the best way to maximize your savings since they do not sell disney cards in 200 increments.

Soooooooo, you buy $200 Sam's gift cards, get the $20 Dosh credit then take the $200 worth of Sam's gift cards and purchase disney gift cards? That is smart because you'll get the Dosh credit twice. Gosh I hope this 10% deal lasts a while.....I have 2 trips to pay for before the end of the year!

U always wondered what people do with the Dosh credit, though. Converting it to PayPal credit is what I've done so far then transfer it to my bank account.

You only get the Dosh deal when you are using your linked credit card. When you pay for the Disney gift cards with Sam's Club cards you don't get the Dosh deal.

People are only purchasing the Sam's cards because Disney is only available in $150 so to get the max $20 cash back you have to spend $200 (which they purchase in Sam's gift cards).

Of course! I clearly haven't had enough coffee today!

Exactly. However, you can use those Sam's Club gift cards to buy Disney gift cards on Sam's Club website for an additional discount. The other option would be to buy Mastercard or Amex gift cards at Sam's Club (yes, there is an activation fee and yes, some people report MC GCs being a hassle, so YMMV). You can then take those gift cards to Best Buy to purchase Disney GCs and take advantage of the swagbucks deal. I did that just yesterday and will average 24.7% off (including Dosh credit, Uber credit, Swagbucks credit and Best Buy rewards points).

Do you know what MasterCard denominations they carry in store by chance? And the fee on those?

 

[Disneyfor8]

My store had quite a few Mastercard options. The best seemed to be the variable load card $50-$250. It has a set activation fee of $4.88. So I loaded it will $200, so I could use it twice at Best Buy to buy 2 $100 Disney gift cards on two separate days to max out the Swagbucks bonus. There are only a few Amex gift cards at my store and the best option was a $200 GC, but it had a slightly higher fee of $6.88. I also bought an Amex one and that worked without a hitch at Best Buy. The MC one was denied once at the store, so I had to call MC to get them to make sure it was activated. Once I did that, it worked fine.

Thanks, @Disneyfor8 !

Yes, it would be an awesome deal, especicially since I'm still in my first year and Discover will match the 5% on my anniversary! If I could only get the card to link!

I'm curious whether you tried to link your Discover card and if it worked for you?

I think I found my answer.

Dosh app links to any Debit Card or Credit Card with Visa, MasterCard and American Express logos on it. Once a card is linked/connected, it's associated with your specific account. You can unlink it, but the same card cannot be linked to another Dosh App account — like for your spouse or child. This prevents fraud and protects our Dosh consumers. However, you can add it back to your account if you’d like.

No mention of Discover Card. So even though the message I was getting said that the card was linked to another program, it's really because Dosh doesn't accept Discover.

That's a real bummer, that would've been a stellar deal. IRT your previous post, I didn't get a chance to try and link the Discover card, but it sounds like it's dead in the water anyway.

This will be my first "girls' trip. I am excited but nervous, I am a pony tail and rope drop kind of girl and the ladies I am going with need at least 1.5 hours to get ready.

We will he there nov 26-dec 4.....but this trip is just me and dh.

My DH and I went last spring, just the 2 of us. I really enjoyed it.

I will start shopping at Sam's tomorrow. Hopefully I can get a majority of it paid for before the promotion ends.

Thanks for the info!

Well you will have to stagger shower times. We're going to have to do the same! I am a planner, a few of my friends are not. I think our 40 year friendships should be ok!

Woof! Last page I was on 1672 now it's up to 1692! Nope! I won't be reading all of them, too little time! Anyway, my two week trip to Southern California went very well. Got a stack of mail, newspapers and school requirements to go through. I did come across:

• Kroger $10 check for Rewards Member - new to me! It also came with a $4 Off coupon for Visa/MC gift card!
• Ebates check was very nice!

Cannot wait until I catch my breath for things to get back to normal! Thanks @gottalovepluto for your help! Wowza! It was awesome!

The days I dry my hair I shower first but the days I toss my wet hair in a ponytail my friend showers first. Not that it means I get more sleep that way but it helps so the same person isn't always first.

Just downloaded the dosh app. For Sam's, it just says 2% cash back up to $20. What am I missing? How is it spend $200 get $20 back?

You're not missing anything. It was still 10% yesterday and it's down to 2% this morning. Congrats to everyone who was able to jump on the gravy train while it lasted. I guess I will stick with my Discover card for 5% + the match on my 1-year anniversary.

Oh dear, then its officially official. I am a deal killer. Every. dang. time

My Dosh is back down to 2% again. I glad I got a few days out of it (paid off upcoming trip) and hope they bring it back again for Christmas!

How much is the Uber credit for Sam's Club purchases with a Visa? Is it 5%?

I am wondering this as well, even though Dosh is only 2%, the max of $20 remains. The deal might still be worth it to me as I buy the mastercards and use at best buy and other places. I would still get $10 on a $500 card, which isn't great, but the Uber could make it worthwhile for me. Does anyone know if it is still 5%?
