Well target phone support says I should not receive the 5pct discount on my order when I pay with gift cards. Hence they cancelled my order. Sorry for calling, but I have gotten more orders through today. It must be a manual review.

Has anyone else had their Target order for ebay cards cancelled? My Target gift cards from Gift Card Mall are out for delivery today and I was really hoping to be able to cycle them through quickly enough to take advantage of the 5X ebay bucks. If Target.com isn't an option, I guess I could buy ebay gift cards in store. I wouldn't get the 5% Red Card discount, but I would more than make up for that with the extra ebay bucks.

If I buy a disney gc from raise.com and it's an egift card, can I exchange it for a regular gc or can I combine it with my other gift cards for our trip? I'm confused where it could be used.

I just renewed my AP to the DVC Gold AP on my trip last week which sucked almost $500 from my 2016 Disney Trip gift card...so it's time to start building it back up. I bought $20 in Target gift cards from Cardpool and paid $18.66. I combined that with the FREE Target gift cards that I received from mPoints, Perk, Shopkick and SwagBucks to buy a $100 Disney gift card...a savings of 81%. That brings my overall savings for my 2016 trip to about 48%...$650 in gift cards for $341.65.

FWIW I have been ordering my Ebay gc's thru Target since yesterday morning pretty consistently and have yet to have nay cancelled but I notice my most recent order is taking forever to get any sort of confirmation from Target so I wonder if a cancellation is pending? And I got my first empty Cardcash giftcard. Not impressed with their customer service so far. Emailed over 24 hours ago with no updates.

I've bought 3 cards from Card Cash recently - 1 was drained about 5 days after we bought it (Panera card) and 1 that was deactivated at day 46 (Subway card). The 3rd one worked without issue. I'm still waiting on resolution for the 2 problems. I would stay away from them. I use Cardpool and have never had an issue with them. And we tend to stock-pile gift cards.

I have a dumb question....if you buy an egift card from raise which means it's an online gift card and then combine it with a regular gift card on the Target app, can those now be used in the store? The egift can only be used online so I'm not sure if your whole gift card now has to be used online or is it all now redeemable in the store too?

Those egift cards aren't for use at disney theme parks. They are for the disney store only.

The egift cards can be used in the store as well. I just show them my phone and they scan it.

The only reason I tend to use them when I can is that I get an additional 4 ultimate rewards points (5 ur/1 dollar) thru chase which works out to 6.25% back. I did a bunch of tests and no other giftcard resale site triggered the 5x.
I've actually not had a problem and I've bought probably 2 to 3 thousand with them. Although depending on how and when they respond maybe it won't be worth it!

After anxiously waiting for my UPS package with my Target gift cards to be delivered, I was able to buy $500 of ebay gift cards around noon today from Target.com (3 x $100, 3 x $50 and 2 x $25). Held my breath for an hour until the e-cards were delivered. Then checked every 30 minutes until they were activated at 4:00pm. Immediately placed my ebay order for 5 x $100 Target gift cards, receiving $50 in ebay bucks. I added some $3.99 kitchen towels to my Target order and received 1.5% in Ebates plus my 5% Red Card Discount. Went through TopCashBack for my ebay order and will hopefully get another 1.1%. After deducting the shipping charges for the Target gift cards, I'll have earned $80 this cycle, or 16%. Very stressful day.

I know, I agree! I just now noticed that my Safeway has Ebay giftcards that give 10 off 25$ in grocery coupons , plus giving the usual 2x fuel points. It's kind of
tempting but I think I need to be done for the day.

Side story: My husband couldn't stand it any longer and wanted to go buy a Jeep today. He has had 'permission' to get a new vehicle for the last 5 years while I have basked in the no car-payment-goodness. Anyway, as he was leaving he was proudly telling me he found a dealers coupon for $200 off and I rolled my eyes (it's a 35k vehicle!). Probably NOT the thing to do when I have spent the last 48 hours feverishly buying and rebuying gift cards online. He made a (valid) point that I spend hours upon hours jumping through online hoops saving money in 5$ increments. OK. You win this time...I don't know what brings who more personal satisfaction, his new Jeep or my Disney vacations at 15+% off

I got this response today from Cardcash in response to my drained Target card:

Good Afternoon ,

End rant

eBay's has a daily deal today for a $60 GameStop Gift Card for $50. Looks like a limit of 2.

http://m.ebay.com/itm/60-GameStop-Gift-Card-for-only-50-Email-delivery-/252133099072?nav=DEALS

It's worth noting, however, that someone on SD claims that GameStop is no longer allowing/going to allow you to use gift cards to buy other gift cards. I have no idea of the validity of this. Anyone else?

Thanks, please do! Do you know - what gift cards does GameStop sell?

 

[CodeGoddess]

I was going for Ebay.

My Safeway is offering them too. They also did it a couple of weeks ago. I always check the ad for these kinds of gift card deals and almost missed it because it was listed in the fine print, but not pictured. I bought five of the $100 ebay gift cards in separate transactions to get five of the $10 off $25 grocery coupons. That plus the 6% I earned from my Amex Card and 2X in gas rewards gave me an 18% discount to start off with. Our next trip isn't until January 2017 at the earliest so we're going to cycle the cards through ebay and Target as many times as we can to maximize the savings.

I love the story about your husband and his $200 coupon. I guess he does have a point.

That is completely unacceptable. I find it extremely difficult to believe that they can't resolve their computer issues within a few hours .
