mesarobins Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Best Buy has the Ipod touch advertised with a $50 gift card. If I buy online and choose in store pick up will they still give me the gift card? I would like to go that route so I can also get $ through upromise.
racerfan Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Whenever I have bought someting from BB online that has a gift card bonus, they mail me the actual gift card and I p/u the item in the store. It takes a few days longer but you still get the gift card.
mamapenguin Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 They mail the giftcard. I did this yesterday. I was able to pick up the spore card with the ipod touch. I went through mypoints.
loves30 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 ok can someone help me with this now. i purchased the 2nd generation back on nov 9th.. anyway i can get this gift card now? is there a time limit on doing this? i did also get a price adj on this about two wks ago when they had the mistake on the websight.
mamapenguin Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I "think" you have 30 days from the date of purchase. Since they already adjusted you, I would guess no. If it is unopened, you could return & rebuy (maybe). They will not give you the adjustment & the $50 GC, I would think it would be one or the other. If you have time, go by a BB store & ask, the worst they can say is no. My Dad always told me, "If you don't ask, you don't get." GL

The gift card is only for the 8gb touch. I was hoping it was also for the 16gb since that was the one I bought with the oops sale. I actually bought 3. Maybe they will have a deal this weekend:D

I'd like to know this too. I bought the 8gb back when best buy had the "oops" for what was suppose to be $199. I was charged full price. Called and was told I would be credited the difference. I never was. If I could get the gift card now that would be wonderful!

Walking right in and getting it is the problem. I don't have a best buy here and the closest one is almost 2 hours away. Dh called best buy and put in the order over the phone online. Was told it would be $199 and charged the $199 plus tax. But in reality I was charged full price plus tax totalling over $240! Dh called back and CS told him they would credit the difference. I forgot about it until about a week ago. Went back and looked at my bank account and the credit never went through. We're only talking about 30 some odd dollars, but that's $30 more that I could spend on something else!
loves30 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 woohoo... spoke with best buy (david) he said humm looked in flyer saw it said i will send you out one cause of all your trouble. will take 2-3 wks. i said that is fine thank you for all your help. so now i hope he just really sends one out. or i will be really really mad .
