Disney Gift Card Deals

I was trying to put the charge on a new credit card I have a minimum spend to meet (a Chase card). Tried to order 6 cards, cancelled out 3 times. Tried ordering just one, cancelled as well. Guess my next step is to try calling in. Did you use the same credit card when ordering under your husbands name & email or a different one?

I used his AMEX. When I tried to order I tried my AMEX, my Visa, my bank debit card and my paypal debit card. Nothing worked.
 
Cards arrived yesterday thankfully.

As for BB & B I wouldn't expect them to do much. Had a cashier forget an item in my bag and they never would credit me because they couldn't see enough on their camera and it wasn't found. She probably gave it to the next customer.

So what do you guys do with small ($5.01) balance on visa or MasterCard gift cards. Since I have to use it online (no physical card) and I haven't found anyone that take multiple payments.

Buy an Amazon gift card with it. It just 'adds' to your gift card total.
 
BJs cancelled my last order for "unable to verify payment information". The charge was pending on my CC, then refunded to my CC. I tried it again, cancelled again. Never had issues with BJs, anybody seen this before?

Since its a new Chase card, you might want to call Chase. I had the same issue once but it was in store when I was trying to make a large gift card purchase. Chase said I hadn't activated the card. Didn't make sense to me since I had already used the card a few times for smaller purchases. Guess the large dollar amount is what triggered the reject.

I had the same problem last year with a new Chase card. Was making multiple large purchases online to meet my required spend and their security protocol started declining the purchases. Had to call in, tell them what I was doing and have them lift the security block. Good luck :)
 


Can you double that by buying a Visa gift card first and then using that to buy the Target card? Would that give you 40 cents off? I do something similar at Kroger. Although I have noticed that Kroger isn't the cheapest gas around. The Sam's next door has it for 10 cents less/gallon. So when calculating savings, I compare what I'm spending at Kroger on gas versus what I would have spent at Sam's. Savings is still good though. Unfortunately, I've maxed out the 6% grocery store cash back on my cc for the year.
That might work, but I would then have to pay to activate the Visa card. My Prius has a small tank so I only get $2.00 back per 100. I think I would pay more in activation fees than I would get back in fuel savings.

Luckily for me, my grocery pairs with gas stations that have pretty good prices. I just wish they had the bonus fuel perks like Kroger!
 
Thanks for the amazon gc tip.

Can you use amazon gc to buy Best Buy or target gift cards?

Amazon doesn't sell Best Buy or Target GCs, and you can't use an Amazon GC to buy Visa GCs.

Amazon does sell Starbucks, iTunes, Netflix, GameStop, Southwest, Hotels .com, AirBnB, Uber, Staples, Whole Foods, Safeway, JCPenney, Nordstrom, Gap, Nike, Ulta, Sephora, Lowe's, a number of fast casual chain restaurants, etc., and you can use an Amazon GC to buy these but there's not much further churning opportunity except for many GameStop.

yes with my discover, if you call they will put the order through but because they did it that way i never got my mr rebates for it :(
 
Has anyone ever seen $300 visa gc's in staples stores? Been to 1 and they had $200 and $100 but no $300. The deal is only worth it to me if I can get a $300 card.
 
Just to alleviate some of the concern re: Disney GCs at Target that's been brought up recently: in the past 2 days, I've converted $2500 in Target GCs to Disney GCs without any issue. There were plentiful Disney GCs available at the Targets I was at.

Does anyone know if target sells any other airlines GC's other than Southwest.
I saw Southwest and Delta GCs at Target - but no American. American has nearly no presence in my region (Delta is the primary airline), so they may be carried in-store elsewhere.

(Don't asks why I was sitting on $2500 in Target GCs. Playing with fire.)
 
I stopped at my Target last night (CO) and found lots of Disney gift cards. $100s on the rack near the movies/books, and $50s at every register. The only thing I didn't see was $25s on the rack by the greeting cards, but they had Disneyland tickets there instead.

I went through self checkout and used
$50 of Target gift cards and redcard for the rest, no issues.
 
Need to buy some disney gift cards for MNSSHP. What's the best deal going now. I have a Sam's card and norm just buy there with my US Bank Visa which has pretty good rewards. I use ebates all of the time, but never had luck getting cash back on GC purchased online at Sam's.

I've seen the talk about BJs in combo with ebates or mr. Rebates. Is that my best bet?

No, they don't have them. I always do 2 x $200 with these deals.
 
It's nice to see people still trying to squeeze every nickel from there Disney Gift Card purchases. I haven't been very active since the EBAY to Target churn went belly up. But thought I would share my current method.

I have the My BJs Perks Mastercard and get 5% back on purchases at BJs. This includes the Disney cards. So when I buy a $100 card for 94.99, I am getting 4.74 back. Giving me a net savings of 9.75% without hassle or visiting stores.

If you go this route, you must pay the card in full each month because the interest is an astronomical 25%.

The MY BJs Perks is $100 to join which is $50 more than the basic membership. This gives you 2% back. It was worth it for me. After adding up all my purchases over the last 2 years, I would have come out ahead. They also gave me more than $50 in usable coupons for things I already buy. And I have also noticed that I now occasionally get coupons on my receipt for $5 of $50 purchase. So it is saving me money in other ways.

When I signed up for the perks card, they also said I was pre-approved for the Perks Mastercard which changed my cash back to 5%. So it was a no-brainer to me.
 
Why is the Target one over? I thought you just use your redcard to buy the gift card to get 5% off.

Anyone know if you get 5% off any gift card at Target?

My experience has been they give 5% off on regular gift cards. I've gotten it on Disney and Google Play cards. They do not discount the prepaid visa cards unfortunately.
 
So what do you guys do with small ($5.01) balance on visa or MasterCard gift cards. Since I have to use it online (no physical card) and I haven't found anyone that take multiple payments.
Disney will be happy to take a $5.01 payment toward any future trip you have planned. I would do that over trying to churn $5 through something else.

I would combine it with other small cards at Target, and use it toward a Disney gift card. If I had a penny left over, I would probably let target keep it.

Have trips planned but room is paid for

I'll try to get a $5 gift card online hopefully it works
 
I'd love to know if it works for you.
