Disney Gift Card Deals

For those of you using Fetch Rewards to earn for Disney:

I was originally earning Fetch Rewards with the intent of cashing out for Target gift cards. Now that it seems like we can no longer use Target GC to purchase Disney GC what would the best Fetch reward be to get with the intent of converting it to Disney gift card?

I see they have Mastercard - would I be able to use the Mastercard reward to pay for Disney gift gards at target or elsewhere?
I could do Rainforest, because we are going there.

Best Buy is a Fetch Reward, but Best Buy locations are not convenient to me and if Best Buy changes their policy like Target does, I will be stuck with the Best Buy card. I never shop there.

I think Walmart is a Fetch Reward. Do they allow Disney gift card purchases with a Walmart gift card? (Sadly, there is no Sam's club nearby)

What other ways are there to convert Fetch Rewards to Disney gift cards?
 
I did 4 back to back transactions, generating a new QR code each time (at least I think/hope it was a new code!). I did not logout of Swagbucks between transactions, but simply navigated away and then back to generate a new code. Hope that worked - this was my first back to back purchase. Crossing fingers.

You do need to pull the QR code up in your phone's browser, but you only need to refresh the page between purchases. I did 5 transactions on Monday just refreshing the QR page and all 2500 bonus SB credited yesterday, the purchase SBs are all pending right now.

Thanks - good to know. I was doing way too much work. I think the cashier thought I was up to no good!!
 


Don’t want to raise any alarm bells, but someone else in the credit card thread just reported that they tried to use Target gift cards today to purchase Disney gift cards along with other items and were not able to do so. Could be a total fluke, but might be good to get some more data points if anyone else in this group has Target gift cards they can try!

ETA: Store located in metro Richmond, VA area.
I tried on Wednesday to purchase 2-$100 Disney GCs plus $98 of groceries with 2-$100 Target GCs. The register wouldn’t even take the Target GCs. Wouldn’t even apply to the grocery portion. The cashier removed the Disney GCs from the total and applied the Target GC, no problem. Then I had to purchase the Disney GC with my RedCard for $95.
I have purchased Disney GCs with Target GCs before and had no problems. I have also had cashiers say no but when I pushed, the manager said it’s fine and processed the transaction. This time it wasn’t the cashier, the register wouldn’t let her complete the transaction
ETA I’m in Chicago suburbs
 
For those doing the Best Buy gcs with the swagbucks QR code just be aware your BB may not allow you too do more than 3 transactions at a time. I went last weekend and purchased 3 $50 disney gcs and the cashier had no issue with it. He did warn me that they do not allow more than three gc purchases at a time, even using separate transactions. This may just be a policy at my store.
 
Just some updated info: I spent a total of 3 hours yesterday between being in a Target store and talking to the Target Gift Card specialists attempting to convert a $50 Target GC, earned from my credit card rewards account, to a $50 Disney GC. When I went through self checkout it would not go through so the manager told me you couldn't buy a GC with a GC and referred me to Guest Relations. I called guest relations and they sent me back to the store to let them know that you can make that purchase. The manager was willing to let me do it but their Point of Sale system would not allow it. Long story short, after a lot of holding and getting calls dropped while standing with the manager, they determined that it is a nationwide Point of Sale issue with no estimate of when it will be fixed. Not sure if that was just blowing smoke or the actual truth. Anyway, they said you will be able to use Target GC to purchase Disney GC, in store only, after the fix whenever that gets done. These dang criminals make things difficult for us law abiding folks to conduct business. I can't even buy Sudafed now without having to give my driver's license and signature, thanks Meth heads!
 


My bank is offering a 10% discount on redeeming points for JC Penny gift cards. Anyone know if they carry Disney gift cards and if I can buy one with a JC Penny gift card? TIA!!

Well this is a bummer. I’ve been collecting Target GCs to convert to Disney GC to buy our Disneyland tickets for this summer. I only have $20 left in Target right now so it’s not a huge loss if I can’t convert them, but I’m also not sure what to cash out for any more on Bing, Fetch, etc. Kind of kicking myself now for not getting a Sam’s Club membership when I had an AmEx offer for it. I don’t have a Sam’s Club near me but I could’ve cashed out for WalMart GC to buy Disney GC from Sam’s online.
 
This may have been asked already but is there a website or rewards program in which you can earn JetBlue gift cards?

Pointsforsurveys dot com

You can't earn gift cards with them but you can complete surveys for Jet Blue points. For each survey you do not qualify for daily they give 10 points up to 5 surveys, so it is pretty easy to earn at least 50 points a day. You can earn even more daily if you qualify for a survey or two. I can't go to the site every day but when I do have time I keep going until I get disqualified 5 times.

I was just at my local Target. System would not allow me to pay for Disney GC with Target GC. A manager at the store showed me a policy that was sent out in January from Target Corporate stating customers were allowed to purchase Disney cards with Target GC. He argued with Gift Card Support for approximately 30 minutes until he was disconnected (pretty sure they hung up on him because he was telling them it was not a policy and they needed to fix the issue). He said the system has been receiving updates and he thought it was a glitch, but had no proof of it. He reassured me that the actual Corporate policy was that it was allowed.
 
...Sounds like your Target is not the norm.
I know I'm a little late to the party here...but I think it's YOUR Target that is not the norm ;) haha.

Beginning this Sunday...at ShopRite stores...buy a $50 Disney Gift Card and get $10 off your groceries the next week. Woo hoo. Perfect timing for me.
Ummmm when is the timing NOT perfect to buy a Disney GC? LOL!!! :rotfl2:
 
Target's system is just being a little goofy with gift cards in general for me. I just spent the last 20 minutes on target.com trying to buy a DVD with my giftcard and it wouldn't complete the purchase using my target account. I'd press the "place your order" button and nothing happened. Tried it on a few different browsers, tried filling out the default CC security info too, I was trying to use up a few dollars on one gift card and pay the balance with another so I deleted out the small gift card and tried just the other... nothing worked, it just wouldn't complete the purchase and no error messages at all. I gave up and created a dummy account and that order went through with the same gift card.
I'm choosing to tell myself it's because they're fixing the gift card error in stores :laughing:
 
I am brand new to this board. On my last Disney trip I paid though gift cards I bought at Target with my red card and saved 5%. I am looking at the Best Buy Swag bucks deal. How do you get the Best Buy gift cards?

Cash star deals or grocery stores with fuel points. If you don’t have access to either, the swagbucks offer is still 12% back plus cash back from your credit card plus at least 1% back from Best Buy in rewards.

Is it 12% just using the QRI code or is there something else I need to do? What are cash star deals?

Yes. $6 back on $50. Cashstar deals are where you buy $150 in Best Buy gift cards and they send you a $15 savings code later. So $165 in gift cards for $150. You can also earn Best Buy rewards on the purchase.
 
I've got $100 in Target GCs and I was going to sit on them a bit, to see what happened... but I got an email that this week they are running one of their spend $50 on groceries, get a $10 GC deals. Since my back up plan is to use the $100 GC for groceries and just put that cash into my trip budget to buy a Disney GC, I'm probably going to stop by and get groceries twice this week and turn that $100 into $120. Just thought I'd mention my plan in case it helps anyone else.
