Those using swagbucks ???

For our Sept. trip, I have cashed in enough Swagbucks for an ample supply of Starbucks gift cards, which I have transferred to my phone app. Between cold drinks & easy breakfast options, even if its fresh fruit, it's often a better value vs using a snack credit, esp. during Food & Wine!

Great idea. I'm doing that for Disney gift cards for our Oct trip as I want to try something at LOTS of booths at F&W Festival. :-)
 
My favorite was the Southwest Gift Cards...until they stopped offering them. I really hope they will get them back!!!
I'm saving my SB for a trip I'm taking to Oregon , so I've been getting dinner cards and target cards .
I think I'll start doing southwest cards for a future cruise I want to take cause airfare is expensive . I thought I read somewhere about southwest giftcards can only be used one per ticket/ booking so people were doing individual bookings and then doing one ways . Please tell me I'm wrong because that would be a big pain.

The cards at Target are $50 so that 6 cards. If anyone uses the southwest gift cards please clarify how it works please.


Oops I meant shopkick for target cards = southwest cards but I can also do swagbucks for Walmart = SAMs club for southwest

You can only do limited payments with Southwest. I want to say it's 4 payments, but I won't swear to that. That would mean 3 gift cards and your debit/credit to finish it off if you can't finish it with 4 gift cards.

I always book one way with Southwest. That's easy. It might be easier to cash out some payments to Paypal for that 4th payment?

I'm pretty sure it's 4 payments. You could use 4 gift cards if it was more than the amount of the ticket, you would just have a balance on the 4th card to use another time.

I ALWAYS book one-way tickets on SW, it's easier to change if the fares drop. If you have a lot of gift cards to use, you would probably have to do each person separately so you can use all of the cards. But I definitely recommend booking one-way. It's not any difference in price like the other airlines.
 
How do you transfer the target gift cards to your phone? I have one I earned one on swagbucks but I can't get it to my phone?!
 
do you use the Walmart e-cards at SAMs or swap the e-cards for physical Walmart cards before going to SAMs?

To be honest, I have never taken one of the eGift Cards to a physical Sam's Club before. I just order them offline. Takes about a week from ordering to dropped off from FedEx.

I do know that the local Sam's Cub doesn't have a problem with the eGift Cards, a co-worker used them before even renewed her membership with one.

It is 4 payments total. For our May trip, we have 6, $100 SW cards. We are planning on booking two one-way trips. Will apply $300 each trip and pay the rest OOP (hopefully not much more than $75 each way).
 
I was able to cash in a Target gift card off my phone yesterday for a $50 Disney card. When you go into the mobile Target app you will see a 'my accounts' section on the left side. You will need to submit your mobile phone number here and create a PIN. Then you just enter the specific codes from your Swagbucks email as the giftcard & access numbers when you click on 'Save a giftcard'

I hope this made sense! Tech savvy I am not!:wave2:

Ok so it's not in the cartwheel app its a separate target app
 
Not that I have noticed, but I could be wrong there too! I was considering how much of a pain trying to use Cartwheel with a giftcard might be!
 
I have $30 in Target cards and I am using them to get the $30 deal for a new iPhone 5c - plus they give me a $20 gift card back. So a free phone, plus they give me back most of the amount I used! Yay! And the contract plan I am moving to is only $5 more than my prepaid is currently. So....thank you SB! :)

I have taken a break from SB for a few days (well the holiday weekend until now) but I have to get back with it every day.
 
Thank you to whoever mentioned the Perk TV app. I just cashed in for my 3rd $25 GC.
