Disney Gift Card Deals

[karen4546]

signed up for RMN and did a few deals. Under rewards it says $50 pending. I also have a few that just say activated. Does pending mean they are approved and will post on the date in the drop down?

Can BB -> Disney gift card be done online? Or is it in-store only?

I purchased 2 of the $25 DGC from BB online in order to get this deal. If it works it will be 20% off....the verdict is still out whether or not it will prove fruitful!

I feel like the RMN chat is always offline. SMH

There should be an email address in the contact section. Attach a pic of your receipt and other details and they should get back to you right away!

Figured what RMN did (or didn't do). The headset ($$$) is back ordered and they only saw the 2 items that I could pick up at the local BB. I'm trying the email system.

It might pick it up. When I've ordered from staples and things shipped/charges separately, at some point it would update to the full order amount and go pending

Good to know. BB just emailed me that the headsets don't have a new arrival date (should have been today Feb 1st.). I'm going to try the email and submit my receipt for the entire order. Don't want to wait too long or they may cancel the headset and I would be out everything.

If you have a Shoprite near you and a Chase Freedom, Freedom Unlimited, or Sapphire credit card, there are still a couple days left to take advantage of the 10% cash back (the usual 1% plus 9% bonus) when you use one of those cards through Chase Pay (up to $400 in purchases).

Shoprite carries $200 Visa gift cards for a $6.95 fee. Buying two and ultimately buying 4 Disney GCs through BB/SB with them would net you around 19% savings.

Odd question . . . My brother is going on a Disney cruise with us. He has zero patience for jumping through the gift card hoops. Looks like easiest/best discount would be Sam's online for him. Wondering if I can place the order from my account but use HIS credit card (he doesn't belong to Sam's)??? Looks like 4.68% discount. Will this work? How much can I buy at once?

I've used DHs credit cards and Visa gift cards/VVs registered to his name on my Sam's account. My account has me and MIL on it

Target would be better at %5 with no hoops. Though you need a red card, which is a hoop I guess... But the red card is an easy to get thing.

I thought that at first, too, but if you tack on the rewards you get from using another credit card, you're likely in the 5.5-6% range by buying through Sam's Club.

Don't know how much you can buy at once but I used my cards on my mom's Sam's account, no problem.

I tried the RMN BB offer as well so we’ll see.

In the past, have people had success buying gift cards with a non-gift card item to get the RMN to work? Wonder if I should’ve added something small to my order.

Just received notice of RMN Sam's Club ($5 off $50) on Jan 16th was approved. Cha..Ching !

My $5 rewards showed up today from my 1/17 online Sam's DGC purchase! It showed that is would payout but I was still holding my breath on that one! Is this offer still valid? I may try another
Still waiting on the $10 RMN back from the shopdisney deal. I think that is supposed to payout on 2/3 or 2/7.

I an not hopeful on this one. I purchased 2 of the $25 DGC online hut picked up in store. RMN still shows that they are "waiting for BB to let them know I made the purchase" and it was in 1/31.

You didn’t ask but... what if something goes wrong and he’s stuck with Disney gift cards? Will he be fine with that? That’s why I don’t help those without patience use Disney gift cards. If something happens and they don’t end up spending it odds are high they will be very annoyed with me and I will be tempted to remedy the situation by buying the gift cards off them at their (ridiculous to me) cost. Neither of those things is ok at the end of the day so I steer clear of assuring in acquiring Disney gift cards for those who have no patience.

Yes - I had the same thought process.

You're right about that for sure, and he may opt to not get the Disney cards for that very reason.

@PerfessorZ is correct: DOSH has 2% back on Sam's club, so there is the additional savings going on right now. Your cc should give you/him more rewards.

Not seeing anything yet either.

You might consider this only when Disney is a "done deal" for him, and he is 100% committed. I wouldn't get any GCs for spending money or incidentals, but solely for the cost of the cruise itself.
