Those using swagbucks ???

If you're wanting to churn it's getting riskier. They seem to be changing policy this week on use of gift cards. Hopefully we'll be able to continue buying Disney gift cards with our Target gift cards but that's not guaranteed. That's the only risk. If you shop at Target anyway it's not a big deal I don't think.

They have not changed the policy on the use of gift cards.

TTG is being generous today!

Is it safer to do PayPal then??

Someone just posted on the Disney gift card thread that they were told it was a new policy.

Well crap! I don't really ship at Target. I needed another $25 GC and I was going to buy a $100 Disney. Now I don't know what to do. If I do PayPal then I can use that to buy them right??

I just bought a $50 dollar Disney gc today with a target gc today.

I just bought $50 Disney gift card a week ago and planning to buy another this next week. I cashed out Swagbucks and got some additional gift cards for diaper purchases. I always purchase diapers at Target and use those, in combination with Swagbucks and Shopkick, to b uy Disney gift cards. I really hope that hasn't changed!

Do you buy them in the store?? I just went to their website and it says they arent available online.

 

[Momtwofour]

Ok, and these target gift cards expire??? I have 3 $25 ones and it says they are expired and to click on the link and they will send a new code??

Diapers? I buy diapers in store once every other month for the gift card I receive with purchase of two boxes of diapers. I combine those with other Target gift cards to purchase Disney gift cards. I do all of my purchases in store.

I've had the code from Swagbucks expire before and I just request the new one and the send it. Easy peasy, lemon squeazy!

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I meant gift cards. So I can take the printed gift cards into the store and buy disney gift cards?

I add the gift cards I get from Starbucks to the Target mobile ap and redeem them through the ap. I believe you can only use it online or through the ap in store, not a printed copy? (I could be wrong on that, but that's how I've done it most recently and I feel like that is the reason.)

In the instructions for the gift cards it says you can print them and the cashier scans the barcode. I do this for Old Navy all the time. I just wasnt sure if it was ok to do that since I was buying gift cards, since there is so much talk about them changing their policy. I am planning on going there tomorrow. I think after this I will do paypal.

Did you buy it in the store or online? They arent available online so I am guessing its a hit or miss thing for online?? Buying in the store you dont get the benefit of getting the extra 5% off right??

Target ran out of the $50 GC's last week and, like the $100's, they have not been restocked. You will not get the 5% off GC's anymore online. If you go into the store and pay with a Redcard, the 5% still seems to be working there.

I wanted to share how I came out on the Proactiv and WEN offers.

I paid $29.95 x 2 = $59.90 spent out of pocket

I sold the free Proativ items on eBay (kept the 3 pc set for my son)
Blackhead Dissolving Gel and Clear Purifying Mask sold for $42.27 (these were the free items that came with the Proactiv offer)

I kept the free item from WEN (orange blossom conditioner) and sold the 3 piece set for $28.52.

Total sales: $70.79
eBay/Paypal fees: $7.08
Balance: $63.71

Shipping all items came to $18.30 (I sent the WEN priority, it could have been sent cheaper I think. Its a big, heavy box though and it had to go in the flat rate box which was $13+).

Balance: $45.51

The difference in what I paid and what I cleared from selling is $-14.49

I then got 6500 SB for these offers which equates to $65.

This means I profited $50.51 PLUS the 3 piece Proactive set for my son, PLUS the WEN conditioner I kept. If someone were to sell all the items, they could easily make $80-$90 by doing these offers. You just have to have your $59.90 tied up for a few weeks to get everything settled.

Hope this helps someone who was wondering.

I plan on doing this again on my DIL's account and selling all the items next time.

Thought I would throw my numbers out there. I only have done the WEN at this time. I sold each item separately on eBay (3 separate auctions as I did the two trial ones together). I also charged shipping based on eBay's calculation.

Overall, after all fees I netted 36.60 on the eBay sales. Plus the 3500 swagbucks = 35.00 less the 29.99 cost = 41.61 profit. Pretty happy with that for minimal work. I did have one that I had to open a non-payer ticket on but then they paid immediately. The shipping on that was ridiculous since they live across the country.

LTG kept going and going this morning. 250 sb before work without a survey is probably my best morning in a while.

 

[mckenk]

I was logged out of SB on my laptop and my apps and I can't log back in. When I try to reset my password, it says my email can't be found! Anyone else having this issue?

Ok. I am going to go in the store today and try and buy disney GC with my target ones. Hopefully it will work! Otherwise I might buy Southwest GC online. I noticed Target has those also and they were instock.
