Disney Gift Card Deals

The eBucks wouldn't be a problem because they would belong to each individual account. The only problem that I see with sharing a PayPal account would come from trying to keep track of which eBay GCs were used for which eBay account.

I thought I'd read that you can only get 500 eBay bucks per quarter regardless of the # of eBay accts you have. I assumed they knew this based on the PayPal it's linked to. Maybe it's strictly by the name on the eBay acct?

My Michaels store does not allow the use of Michaels gift cards to buy other gift cards.

Thank you! I figured that was the case or we would all be buying those Michaels cards at 20%

really dont think anyone needs more than one paypal account anymore. since no limit on gift cards. even having 2 ebay accounts isnt really needed. seems would be crazy hard to hit the 500 ebay bucks limit in a quarter.

Beauty, Personal Care, and Office Supplies items will usually get you cash back. But I believe Household Essentials are excluded. Check the category that Target lists the item under to be sure.

I have to add a wrinkle to my earlier post. I needed to buy some items for my little one so I added them to an order with gift cards, checked that the items were categorized under Personal Care, but didn't receive Ebates on the purchase I guess because the items are also considered Baby items, which generally are excluded. I have received Ebates on buying boxes of diapers, which generally are excluded from cash back, by adding Personal Care items (like hand soap) that aren't also considered Baby items.

Lesson learned. I lost out on about $8 in cash back, but I wasn't about to send in a ticket to Ebates because asking them to look into that transaction with all those gift cards was inviting them to open a whole big can of worms. I'm happy with the cash back on gift cards that have credited and I don't need Ebates going over all my purchases and correcting their glitch.

I am so out of the loop...I would love to learn more about your savings. Is there a post # I should start with that would be the most helpful. I'm assuming there are a couple hundred pages or so that are outdated. TIA

Someone recently recommended page 470 of this thread & I found it very helpful!

There very well maybe a eBay gift card limit-I didn't recall seeing a limit posted here before and I haven't bought them myself (just the Disney cards). If there is a limit on those too I'd prob not do multiple orders per day on those either to try to circumvent the limit.
ETA you are right I just looked at it is 3 $100 eBay gift cards in a single purchase just like Disney-thanks for the correction

I thought there wasn't a limit on eBay gcs you can buy on Target? I bought $1000 last week, no problem. Can anyone clarify?

Was that all in one transaction? I think they are limited to 3 per denomination per transaction. Well, IDK about $200 because they seem to let you add as many as you want to the cart, but they tell you limit 3 on $100, $50 and $25. $200s are also the ones that don't make you put in to/from names and email. Weird. I know some people have had problems ordering $200, but they seem to be regulated less by the auto limits anyway.

I'm trying to purchase Disney cards from Target with Target gift cards. I have a red card and it is set as my default card. In my cart, after I started the check out process, I don't see any discount has been applied. Should I see a discount? Or does it show up/happen at some other point? Also, my red card info isn't showing up, even though I have triple checked and it is my default card. Can someone please help? I'm not trying to do anything else fancy. Thanks.

 

[eeyoresmom]

Starting sometime within the last couple of weeks it doesn't show up for me until the very last page. I still have to enter my pin code, the discount shows up, then I change payment.

I am needing help. I purchased my first discounted CVS gift card today. I took it in to my local CVS to convert it to a Disney card. Neither the clerk nor the manager could figure out how to use the CVS ecard to make the purchase. Finally they said "You must cannot use a CVS gift card to purchase another type of gift card".

Is this true? If not, does anyone know how the transaction should be processed?

The ecard gives instructions to he clerk on what to do, but it not work.

CVS doesn't allow you to purchase any kind of GC with a CVS GC.

CVS doesn't allow you to purchase any kind of GC with a CVS GC.

Is there a list of companies that do allow you to do this (for example Target). Does Wallgreens?

 

[hayesdvc]

For a newbie, are there any YouTube videos out there walking though the "churning" process ?

Target is the only one I know for sure. Some Best Buys will, and some Kmarts will if you have a physical gift card. I think maybe Walmart and Sam's too?

Just keep in mind if it doesn't automatically credit (which it won't for a gift card purchase with no eligible item thrown in) they often require you to submit a copy of your order (i.e. Forward them the email confirmation of your order). When they see it is for gift cards them will not credit it. I speak from experience. I was buying clothes from target.com last fall and also ordered a $100 southwest gift card at the same time. My purchase did not Track automatically for some reason so I contacted ebates to get credit for the clothes purchase. I had to forward them the confirmation from target and they only credited the portion for the clothes purchase as gift cards are excluded (which I expected).

No they do an immediate credit on ebates for me after I forward them a cut paste of my order. They haven't turned me down yet but good to know

When you say you do a cut/paste of your order are you somehow only submitting the amount of your order and not what you ordered? Or are you getting ebates even though they see you only bought gift cards (an excluded item)?

Here's what the email I got said when I submitted a "where's my cash inquiry" for the target purchase I mentioned in my post you quoted.

"For this missing Cash Back, please send along the order confirmation (that includes an order number, products purchased, order date and price breakdown showing product total, shipping, tax and method of payment) so that we can look into this matter for you."

When I submitted the info they requested they only credited the clothes and stated the gift card wasn't eligible (which I expected).

 

[asgaga]

only places that work for sure are
Target
Best Buy
Gamestop(some managers may stop it, but system will allow it)

I bought (5) $200 gcs, all in one transaction. Looks like that's the way to go.

i've thought about throwing one together, but to put it in a video it would be super basic information on how to start.
