NEW Disney Gift Card Deals and More.

@Doingitagain Sams seems to be a YMMV situation. Many different reports, some people keep ordering on a loop with no issue, some get locked in DGC jail...They also seem to be much stricter when a holiday or Black Friday promo is stacked. Right now when I go to order online for instance, the $190s say "Max 4 per ORDER", while other times of year with higher demand it will say "Max 4 per MEMBERSHIP " and that's when they are much more likely to lock you out...but eventually they will unlock you.
 

It says so. Order 3 and then 1 and it lets me just keep doing that.

I tried that, didn’t work for me. I ordered 3 Tuesday evening, then 1 yesterday afternoon. Tried last evening to order more & site wouldn’t add to my cart. I tried again this morning, got the same thing. I think you’re in a lucky glitch.

isnt the target 5% back better deal than the Sams when purchasing the $500 card?
If you are not using a credit card that earns something back then yes 5% beats 3.004%

I usually am only buying from sam's if I have something up my sleeve that earns a decent percentage as well unless it is one of their doorbusters even the the $200 for $190 is only 5% off

Gotcha are you saying like if you have a chase freedom that has 5% back for that quarter on wholesale clubs, etc?

Yes or anything that would combine to earn more than 5%.

A card earning 2.1% or more would be better than Target by 20 cents or more on the $500.

Besides the $50 card the $500 is the worst value.

Better to buy lower amounts and then combine them at disneygiftcard.com

If $500 is the goal, I could buy 6 of 3 pack of $25 cards for a total of $431.88 which gives me $450 in DGC.
I could then buy the physical $50 card for $48.98 and that totals up to $480.86 for $500.
If I used a Chase Freedom Unlimited which earns 1.5% on everything I would receive $7.21 back. This makes the total for the card $473.65.

The Target $500 card when bought with a redcard is $475 which would be $1.35 more.

Target is by far the easiest place to save a straight 5% but you can usually get better deals by combine credit card rewards with savings elsewhere.
Sometimes though Target has their Target Circle offers where you buy xx transactions at $xx and receive target circle rewards for $xx and these can be worth it as the face value of the Disney Gift Card counts for the spend and not the actual amount you are paying with your red card.

This is like art. I wonder if we can use AI to help us get better deals or values or simplify things.

i asked best place to buy discounted GC

Final Thoughts
  • Want simple and reliable? Head to Target with a RedCard for a smooth 5% off.
  • Want to maximize deals? Use a wholesale club like BJ’s or Sam’s and stack with cashback or rewards.
  • Want big bargains? Watch Costco or online marketplaces—but keep an eye on validity and seller reputation.
  • Already part of AAA? Take advantage of that ~5% back in AAA Dollars.
