Any tricks/tips to use the remainders of Virtual VIsas? I know you can buy Amazon gift cards for almost any amount, but just wondering if people had other ideas.
Sam’s will let you pay with two forms of payment. So you can get rid of a leftover amount for one of those payments. Also my utility companies let me make unlimited payments against my bill for any amount (I can even overpay and have a credit against future bills).

I use them to add money to my E-Z Pass account (it pays for tolls here in the Northeast). I used to be able to pay with them directly to e-z pass but they recently blocked the ability to use the prepaid cards, so now I add the prepaid cards to my paypal account and use the paypal key to pay them off to my e-zpass account. Just make sure to always leave more than a dollar left.
 
I used a Chase offer for Best Buy and also for Michaels on Sunday to pick up two Disney GCs. I just got my statement and was reconciling when I realized that both charges are no where to be found for that card. I got the alert that the charges were made and already transferred the money to my main GC. Neither charge is pending either. This is so weird and has never happened to me before. Not sure what is going on.

Sometimes with Chase, charges will “disappear” as they pass between pending and posted. I bet they are there in a day or two.

Weird thing is there is two other charges from another date (the 16th- one at Wholefoods and the other at a local coffee shop) that is missing too. Seems like a long time for it to disappear!

Are you just looking at the paper (or PDF) copy of your statement or are you looking at a list of recent transactions online? I’d just make sure you are looking on both sides of the statement date. More often than I care to admit I look online and am confused at the lack of transactions because it always defaults to only post-statement transactions even if the transaction was only a day or two ago.
 
For those using the Cash App (by Square), check your boosts. This may be YMMV, but I have 10% off online purchases at Sam's Club, up to $200 per day, for the next 26 days. This can stack with Sam's normal 4% off $50 Disney gift cards for a total of 14% off. Because of purchase limits, I think the easiest way to do this is to purchase 2 physical gift cards and 2 electronic gift cards, each for $50. I don't think there is any way to stack this with a portal.

I looked at everything. PDF statement and online transactions before/after statement close. I even looked at my other cards too just in case I made an error and used a different card. I see the charges when I look at my alert history but nothing in the actual transaction history. Just so weird. I will hang tight and hope they show up soon. Just want to catch those chase offers before they expire.
 
Today Topcashback is doing a $4 cash back for $10 purchase and Sams Club is 10% (and supposedly gift cards are no longer excluded for Sams)

As I’m still not sure about whether it will track, I’m just buying a $50 gift card as a test, but that will be a little over $10 off if it goes to plan (and $2 off if not).

The $4 off $10 should also track to any other purchase, including Raise, which is doing $5 off $50 still today with BOO.

Thanks - I tried doing a $500 gift card from Samsclub through Topcashback - will see what happens. Roughly the same as getting it through Target with my 2% cashback Visa.

Well, my Sam’s Club order was canceled. I’m relatively new to Sam’s Club and my first two orders were also canceled about a month ago, but I finally was successful a week ago, so thought maybe I was finally fine. They don’t even send a notification, I just pull up the order status and it shows canceled and I’ll have the credit card charge on my account for a few days now.

One of my orders was canceled too. Still waiting on shipment of part of the other order (hoping it ships). Was surprised they don't notify of the cancelation.
 
I just tried both Giftcard.com promo codes and are both saying they are not active. Did they already discontinue the promotion?

Did you order physical or e-giftcards? I ordered the digital one, and already receive the $500 code. Don't know if the digital one won't work for receiving cashback or not though.
