Disney Gift Card Deals

Just catching up after being on vacation . . .

For those out there looking for best credit card offers, Frequent Miler has a good list that he keeps up to date. Just google "frequent miler best credit card offers."

@havaneselover - I also thought you could only deduct .10 off gas at Shell stations. I may try again since others report being able to use the full gallon off. Will report back. I will say though, that I've been getting gas at Kroger for what feels like forever, and my 2005 minivan has lasted 260K+ miles! :-)

I also have an Amex offer for Sheetz (spend $10 get $5 statement credit - use 2x). I know they carry 3rd party gift cards, but I'm not sure which ones. Will report back.

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.

It was nice to get away for a week. Kinda bummed to be back home.

I would be thrilled if my Odyssey lasts that long.

Do you happen to know if the Kroger coupon start tomorrow? I need to buy a Nordstrom gift card (Anniversary sale) and need more Target.

Glad you had a nice vacation! Coming home is never fun.
 
Mine's already spent! :) I've used it towards an egg incubator for my duck and chicken eggs. Not quite Disney related...

I did use the $10 promotional credit towards packing cubes that will be used for Disney though!
That's better than me. I used my $10 credit toward potty training board books ("Bloop Goes the Poop" and "Cora the Cow Plops a Patty"), which is sort of Disney related, since I'm hoping to not pack diapers on our park trip.
 
I'm not seeing the Kroger either. I wonder if it's a targeted coupon.
I feel more anxious at one of these 4x than I ever did with ebucks ;).

Mine is an Odyssey too. The goal is 300K!!

My digital coupon doesn't show a start date, but I received the email this morning. I assume its effective now. I lied before - coupon says Unlimited Use.
 
Is anyone still holding out hope for an eBucks promo this month? If I recall, there has not been any bonus offers all month, right? I used my eBucks to buy $200 in Walgreen's gift cards, but with shipping at $1.99/card, it's only a break-even without an eBucks promo. Well, I guess I did get the 1% in eBates, but that is not nearly enough to justify a snail-mail churn. I just received the notice that my cards have shipped and I also have a $100 eBay card that I bought at BB. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we see a promo some time in early August. I am antsy, but I have to pace myself, especially with PPDG. I'm going to really try and limit myself to a $100 card every 2 weeks. Other than that, I plan to slow-churn through Walgreen's, but ONLY if there is a promo. Otherwise, it isn't worth it.
 
Went to my usual GS store to churn for EBay GC and was denied by the register According to the CSR they recently updated their system. I plan on checking other stores in the area this weekend, besides that what other options have people here been using to get their churning funds back? I have $475 worth of GS GC right now.

What area are you from? I'm in SW PA where it still worked last week and hoping it continues as long as possible. However I've had great luck through Sears/Kmart so I will probably start to put more in that direction.

I did read a post about PA. I'm in Tampa, Fl so I'm a bit far from PA :worship: I think someone mentioned before of buying game systems with the GC and reselling them, if I have no other choice I might have to go that route.

I ended up cashing my GS out for Southwest and restaurant cards.

If you sign up for a rewards membership, you might get a B2G1 coupon on pre-owned items in your account. Not sure if all accounts get it, but my mom has had one sitting in her account for months. Her's is a Pro membership, not sure if that matters either. But I would think that the 20pts/$ would get most of your $15 membership fee back if you use them to get a certificate on pre-owned items, which is discounted. Also, BeFrugal has up to 5% cash back at GS. With all of that, hopefully you can make your full amount back and maybe a little profit after selling/shipping fees.

If you're planning on buying and reselling, eBay is having a targeted back to school promo where you get 10% back as a eBay coupon when selling between now and July 27th IIRC. Video game consoles are listed as a qualifying item.
 
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.
Yep, you missed a lot, lol! Actually it pretty much stinks, lol. Without GCM selling the Target gc's on ebay, really took away a huge churning opportunity. Who knows if we'll see target gc's from an authorized seller on ebay again, hopefully, but doesn't seem so likely as more time passes.
I went to the GS - Ebay - GS route, and some BB - Ebay - BB, to earn ebucks and we were able to max out our ebay limits for both myself and my DD26, in this last quarter that paid out on July 2nd or 3rd. But, although GS is still working for me in my area at this time, caution is a good idea. Then there is Best Buy as they sell both Ebay and Disney gc's, and that's great, but the only authorized seller on Ebay is Paypal digital gifts or PPDG, and they are often very difficult at best, and some have had serious issues with them. I've been able to get some churning thru in a simple manner, but it's inconsistent and nerve wracking, lol.

My newest churn I'm going to try is thru Walgreens. I'll buy Walgreens gift cards at ebay and then use those to buy Ebay gift cards there. They also sell Disney gc's, as well as many other gc's, so that could be a good way to cash out when that time comes. I have tested this, and a few others here have as well, and you can purchase gift cards with WGC's. I'll probably do a bit thru GS, as well. I don't want to put any more cash out, have decent amt of funds already allocated towards Disney(some cash, some from my gains thru target), and are in Ebay gift cards, so I will keep churning them while I still can for the ebucks. Not nearly as lucrative as the Target ebay churning was, but still getting more 'extra funds' than if I just stopped and put all into disney gc's now.

To really see how much things have changed you may want to read back thru the last few months to May or so.

I am, and hopeful for one to pop up tomorrow or this week some time! I mean, we did have one last time in April, the last ebucks redemption month. There was a flash 6 or 8 hour sale(our first flash sale that I remember). Seems like since then, most sales were limited time flash sales, until that last one near the end of June that was two days. That was nice, much more time to get things done, like the good 'ole days, lol. Flash sales are so much harder while working and all, lol! Anyway, I thought there was one each redemption month, but not positive on that nor have the details. Other posters have put out past promo dates a couple months back, I think. And, yes, you are right, there have not been any ebucks promos at all this month. And, you're also right that a churn thru Walgreens is only viable with at least a 4x - 5x ebucks promo. So, yep, definitely holding out hope for a nice promo deal this month!
 
I just saw this bad news for those churning through eBay:

http://www.doctorofcredit.com/noo-ebay-puts-back-limits-ebay-gift-card-usage/

You can only use $2,000 in eBay gift cards every 60 days per account. So a limit of $12,000 in gift cards per year.

Also, the terms say:

10. No more than a total of $1000 in Gift Cards may be redeemed per eBay purchase. Further, you may only redeem a maximum of eight Gift Cards in any single transaction (and fewer if you are redeeming Gift Cards in combination with other redemption codes, such as coupons or vouchers). Restrictions also apply to the purchase of eBay Gift Cards on ebay.com-see our Gift Card Policy for details.

Basically means that if you can get a 5x ebucks promo each month and can churn $1000 through each time, then you could only earn $300 in eBucks from gift cards each quarter. The rest would have to be spent in cash.
 
So the 8% won't work on multiple gift cards that are under $150 each? Or is it $150 total? This always confuses me.
