did anyone else take advantage of the amazon deal a few weeks back where you bought a $50 gift card and got a free $10 credit? I did and I think they screwed up along the same lines as the game stop one where some people were getting $140 on their $100 CG. I just checked my CG balance and there was actually $30 not $10.
No Kroger here. They do carry them at our Giant Eagle but no way to cash out through the eBay gc churn.
The $10 promotion credit would not show up under "gift card balance" on amazon. It only shows up when you go to checkout with a qualifying item. That $30 extra in gift card balance may be due to the Prime Day $30 off $150 coupon fiasco that Amazon tried to rectify the next day by giving members $30 in gift card balance automatically applied to their account if they had tried to use it on Prime Day but were unable to. I think that is a more likely explanation.![]()
oh ok, that makes a little more sense,and even better considering, I never did go back and use the visa promotion. woohoo $30 free money, now where to spend it.
Are you sure you need the "eBay gc churn" if you have access to the GE fuel perks program? Utilizing double fuel perks, 30 gallons of gas, and a 6% cash back Amex card, I calculate the savings at about 30% with minimal effort. The eBay gc churn can definitely supplement that savings, but optimally using the GE fuel perks program is pretty hard to beat.
Which Amex gives 6%? I mostly use Chase Freedom but am not opposed to a new card.
Ok, So am I missing something? I have been away for a few months and finally got back. Are Ebay cards not available from Target.com anymore??? I can't find any. If not, how are you churning? I don't have many store chains close by.
Which Amex gives 6%? I mostly use Chase Freedom but am not opposed to a new card.
As @wendow stated, the Amex Blue Cash Preferred gives 6% cash back at grocery stores up to $6K max per year. There is an annual fee, but it's more than offset by the Amex offers each year. Your Freedom card is good too for the 5% during the grocery store quarter and the gas station quarter for GetGo for a total of $3K for those quarters combined. It all depends on your desired spend and ability to get double fuel perks offers during those quarters.
I would like to look into the Amex Blue Cash card. Any chance you have a referral code? I always like to pass along a thanks to whomever saves me money, if I can!
Not allowed on Disboards. Maybe ask on Facebook if any friends have it.
Is anyone aware of retailers that carry Universal Studios gc? We always spend a few days there as well. Would be nice to cash out for some of those too at some point.
Finally, I received an email from Kroger today for a 4x fuel points downloadable coupon (good till 7/27 I believe). It looks to me like you can only use it once though. I'm hoping for another "back to school" 4x promo in August.
