Agreed! Disney posting a discount on GC's is one thing but not to be charged at all is entirely different.
Let your conscience be your guide!

Many times I have had charges that don't show up on my credit card until 3 or 4 days after purchase.I have a feeling it’s going to show up on my Chase account tomorrow. For some reason, my Chase account isn’t showing anything as “pending” not even things I charged yesterday or Friday. I’ll keep everyone updated!
expecting - I don't think anyone here is at this point. We have always posted "Your Miles May Vary" (YMMV) when it comes to buying gift cards thru cash back portals.I'm sorry to ask what might be a very obvious question - I did search, but couldn't find the answer. When I look at the offer terms on things like the Staples and ShopDisney cash back on RMN, they say that "purchases of gift cards are excluded." However, from the discussion on here, it seems like folks are using that link to get gift cards and are expecting cash back. Am I missing something here?
Based on what happened with other GCs from that time period, I imagine Disney will eventually find out and claw the money back from the GC and not actually ever charge you.I have a feeling it’s going to show up on my Chase account tomorrow.

If we do get cb we look at it for what it's worth, a bonus. I've done it a few times just to see what will happen but it's not worth the risk imho. For me Kroger offers a better deal at 14% cash back on $250 but not everyone has a Kroger or similar offers.

I am in a similar situation right now. I special ordered something from Home Depot in April, paid by check and the check still hasn’t cleared. I keep waiting for it to eventually show up. Had that happen once before where it showed up four or five months later. Have no idea why the hold up, but assuming anytime now I will see it clear the bank.Many times I have had charges that don't show up on my credit card until 3 or 4 days after purchase.
This reminds me of a couple of years ago when I was running the school store at out high school and I ordered $800 worth of hooded sweatshirts and the company forgot to charge our credit card. Around 8 months later, I got a call from them saying they were doing their end of year accounting and realized they never charged me. They said they could either put it on the credit card that I had originally used or they could send me a bill.
So, usually they end up charging you eventually.

LINK - READ the page and comments too! Very important!
I tried to enter - keeps asking me for a date then nothing happens... I am assuming it is my DOB - I enter it, click continue and it does nothing.I entered! Sweepstakes always make me laugh. Does anyone ever enter them on the starting date? I always seem to not get notification (email, facebook, etc) of them until they've already been active for several days.
Great - thank you so much! I am probably going to do a Kroger purchase as well when the 4x comes up again later in the month, and I feel better that is the best deal I can find.
I don't know what credit cards you have but those offers can be amazing. I believe you need to sign up for them like American Express and Chase. There's also Ibotta and ShopKick. Not sure when combining such offers will yield more than 14% but that should be your goal.
