amez74 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 What are some good deals on gift cards?--we buy about fifteen $20-25 gift cards each year and it's tough to find a deal on them. I know certain places will give you more gift cards if you buy a set amount. For example the other day some one told me Applebees will give you $20 if you by $100. I would love it if folks would post their gift card finds - it would be a big help to us. In my husband's position he likes to give gifts to the people who work under him, without being to personal (mostly women he works with) and not having to worry about what people are allergic to--so gift cards are just the safest bet and a nice way to show his appreciation for the work they've done all year long. So let me know your deals! Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaInNC Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I've started seeing the email come through about the bonus gift cards. So far I remember seeing gift card bonuses from DSW Shoes (buy $50 get $10) & Outback (buy $100 get $20). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outback may be a good gift for BFF and family but I don't like giving gift cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No - I have signed up with various programs that they offer and I just opted into emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeyfanamo Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 At Walmart this Saturday and Sunday they have itunes $50 gift cards for $35 if you need any of those but limit one per person. Do you know if this will be nationwide? I haven't seen anything in the area about the iTunes $50 for $35 deal. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffkin79 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I just deleted the email, I think Borders is offering a $20 coupon when you buy $100 in GCs. I don't know if a coupon is needed or if you need to be a rewards club member (I am). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conj Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 our grocery store has a gas promotion... spend 25$ get .10/gallon off gas.... it is good on GC for places like Best Buy, Itunes, and toys R us. .... so gift cards and discounted (or free, depending on how many you buy) gas!

Princess7915 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Sometimes you can get good deals using Discover Card cashback credit online at some places. I have also seen some cautions going around about buying GC in stores off of racks. People are stealing the numbers and waiting for someone to really buy them and load them with money. Then they can use them online and basically steal the GC you just bought. You safest to by cards that a cashier has to hand to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
