What stores that have GC "malls" will allow you to use a GC to buy a GC?

I have a reward program at work where recognition "points" can be traded in for merchandise and gift cards. Disney gift cards are not an option. However, many other stores like Lowes, Home Depot, TJ Maxx etc are. I know HD and Lowes have gift card "malls" where you can purchase GCs to other stores there, so wondering if I got a HD or Lowes GC, could I purchase a Disney GC with it?
 
Not a direct answer to your question, but I have a similar program at work and the last time I got an award, I got Kohl's eGift cards and sold them to one of the gift card buying sites (I think I used Saveya?) You can use giftcardgranny.com to determine what gift cards will get you the biggest bang for your buck (or award points in this case) and via what site.
 
How did I never think of that!? That's awesome. Our company has a similar program and a lot of the gift cards are for chain restaurants. We've done Landry's a few times and have eaten at Yak and Yeti in WDW, but it would be even better to get the $$ for a Disney gift card.

I don't know if it is all Lowe's but the one closest to my house will NOT let you use a GC for a GC.

I know you can at Target & Walmart/Sam's Club, I always just order online and have never had a problem with either of those three stores.
 

The added perk to using WalMart/Sam's (if you are a member) is the Disney cards are discounted (about 4.68%) so your cards go farther. The same perk applies to Target if you use the gift cards online and have a Redcard set as your default payment (5% discount).

Target, Walmart/Sam's Club, Best Buy will allow

Lowe's does not allow
I thought Best Buy did not allow Gift Card to Gift Card purchases, but they did allow their Rewards to go towards Gift Card purchases?
 
I have used a Best Buy GC to buy a Disney GC as recently as before Christmas.
Was this in the store or was it online? In-person was a no-go for my brother, but I've read about people ordering Disney GCs online and being able to use BB GCs for payment.

In store. Cashier even talked through what I was buying as I handed it to him, "Ok, you want to buy this Disney gift card with your Best Buy gift card? Sure, we can do that!". And that is all I bought. I've never tried it online.

I'd be interested in hearing if others have not been able to in the store. Do you know if the register beeped or if the cashier just said 'no'.

I don't know. Like I said, my brother was the one who told me he tried it and he wasn't able to do it. He gets BB GCs from work as a part of their employee recognition program.

That's too bad. Hope it was just a grumpy cashier.
