Has anyone had luck paying for a new gift card with a previously purchased gift card?
I think other readers have reported doing so. I use a credit card that pays me 3-5% cash back at supermarkets when I buy these. Anything I buy at the market counts, even postage.
is this advertised at the store? I looked all thru the ad but couldn’t find anything on this.
It’s on page 3 of the 8-day ad that came in the Sunday paper.
thank you
I don’t know if this went to everyone but there’s a Club card 4x gas points offer that came via email on gift-cards expires 4/22. Has anyone tried this to see if they work together? $100 x 4 or 40 cents/gallon at Chevron which makes this deal even better…
Yep, I did the Mastercard deal back in March and it gave me 4x the gas points. Sweet!
I have the 4x gas rewards deal. We were doing a home project, so we stocked up on Home Depot cards. Got up to 30 gas rewards. That will be 3 fill ups. 🙂 Nice. Even at only 10 gallons each that will save us $30.
It does say in the details not valid on selected gift cards (Amex, Visa, Mastercard). So i will be interested to see if it works or not,
Hmm…well, either there was a glitch in the system or I earned more gas rewards last month than I thought. Either way, it was a nice surprise at the gas pump!
Apparently Mastercard is the sole exclusion to the 4x gas rewards. Called customer service when I didn’t see it on the bottom of my receipt; like Cheryl said, you need to click on it to read the fine print. The gal on the other end was kind enough to give me the rewards even so.
I did not get any gas reward points at all or the $10 Cat…I will have to email catalinamarketing.
I generally buy these and then turn around and pay a bill that accepts mastercard, that way I don’t have to worry about it. They do charge a 5.95 fee for each one.
So do you have to get a $100 gift card to get the catalina?
I think you can get smaller denominations that add up to $100, but the catch usually is that each card carries the activation fee, making it a non-moneymaker. Someone else probably can verify this.
Howard’s right; each card has its own activation fee, so go for the $100 (or more, if there is one) card. Anything less than $100 won’t work.
