20% off Select Gift Cards from Amazon
Here is the link to Amazon and here are some of the stores:
- TGI Friday’s
- Shake and Steak
- JCPenney
- Jiffy Lube
- Cold Stone Creamery
- Pacific Sunwear
- Logan’s Roadhouse
- Legal Seafoods
- Longhorn Steakhouse
It would be nice if you could use Amazon gift cards bought at Staples with a 5x card to buy these discounted cards, but the terms so you can’t pay with gift cards and I’m pretty sure I’ve tried to in the past without success.
As such, this might only be really interesting if you could stack the discount with something else…
Friends and Family sale at JCPenney up to 25% off
Oh, btw there is a friends and family sale on select categories which could give up to 25%. While its limited to certain categories, one is home which would include small kitchen appliances for all you nostalgic Kohl’s resellers…
JCPenney 30-66% off…
JCPenney is hardly the ultimate reselling store, but here at BigHabitat we don’t judge, so lets work with it and see if we can cobble a deal together with these various promos
- Buy 20% discounted JCPenney gift cards at Amazon (21% including at least 1% for the card)
- Go through Discover Deals to get another 10% back (31%)
- Buy items that are eligible for the 25% (56%)
- Hope that Discover deals doubles your cash back after one year (66%)
Yes, I realize this post might have been more helpful yesterday with the OfficeMax flash sale going on, but I assume most of you would default to your Chase Ink card anyway.
But if you are trying to hit minimum spend thresholds or save your Ink Bold capacity there is another way to use any CC to get 4x United points and 1x from your card of choice. (Please feel free to add derogatory comments about United, how you would never fly them again, and how XX airline is better in the comments section)
- Go to United.com and add the card you would like to use to your profile
- Download the Mileage PlusX app if you haven’t already
- Go to OfficeDepot.com (through a portal of course)
- After shopping, go to the payment page, launch your Mileage X app, and generate gift cards for the total
- Note: you will have to do max $200 at a time, with the balance on a final gift card, so repeat until the balance is paid. Also, remember if you use this method you are paying with gift cards so you would not get the usual credit card protections, but when you are just going to resell the items it usually doesn’t matter.
