If I cash it out will I get the full amount? Or they still take off a percent?
Full amount.
So I can get back more money then it cost and still earn miles?
Cashing these out can be tricky, but you can always use them anywhere at the full value.
How do I cash it out?
Do we need to buy some fillers in order to disguise the purchase, or is buying these GC totally legit?
Is the savings automatic?
No.
Legit.
Yes.
Thanks.
A.
Lot.
anywhere to do money orders in the ny area?
Any grocery stores and gas station in LA that sell money order please?
On the Office Depot website, you can purchase a $500 Visa GC for $505.95. However, it links to https://giftcardmall.officedepot.com.
Does anyone know if these still come through as office supply purchases? It’s not as good a deal as buying for less than face value, but if I am getting 5% back on my Ink, I am still netting $19.35 in net UR points above cost. ($505.95*5% = 2,529.75 UR Points – $5.95 Fee = $19.35.)
Considering the bonus is on up to $25K per year, I am highly unlikely to actually be able to max that out unless I am EXTREMELY diligent about chasing deals like this. If this works, it would be a relatively easy way to maximize my UR points.
Am I missing something?
I figured I’d give it a try. Unfortunately, it does not process as office supplies, so it only gets 1%. Oh well.
None of these gift cards have chips?
How is a money order done?
Just called my local office max and said there’s no such deal. Where can prove that this is being advertised?
