The Offer
Direct Link (use the ‘Other’ filter and you’ll find these coupons)
- Purchase any two eBay gift cards and receive a $10 discount with digital coupon.
- Save 20% on any amount of Gap/Banana/Old Navy gift cards with digital coupon.
- Save $10 off two $25 Sephora gift cards with digital coupons.
You need to save the digital coupon in order to get these deals. As such, it is tied to your card and can only be done once. In the past, it’s been possible to reload the coupon again after using it once, so you may be able to keep on doing this deal. Please let us know if this works for this deal and we’ll update the post.
The eBay gift card deal appears to be for two $25 eBay gift cards, so you’ll end up getting $50 in eBay gift cards for $40 – a 20% discount. Great deal!
[UPDATE: Readers comment that the Gap deal is only working for $100 at a time to take off $2o. If you buy $150, for example, it will only take off $20. You need to split it up into separate transactions.]
The Fine Print
- Coupons must be saved by 7/25/15
- Coupons expire 8/1/15
Our Verdict
All three deals are very interesting.
The eBay gift card deal is awesome! If it could be repeated by reloading the coupon, you can lock in a 20% discount on your future eBay purchases. (There is probably going to be a bunch of gift cards sales on eBay this week and I noted on Twitter.)

The Gap deal is interesting. The big advantage of the Gap deal is that you can buy high amounts in one purchase without having to reload the coupon. Most of the exchanges are only offering in the mid-70 for Gap/Banana/Old Navy, but Giftcardzen is still offering 80% for now. This could be an easy way to manufacture free credit card points with a bonus grocery store category. Of course there is a very  real risk here since you’re relying on one exchange and their rates can easily go down. This deal is probably not worth doing for most people. [The Kroger folks can finally take revenge on the Safeway folks!]
The Sephora deal is interesting. Assuming you can reload the coupon, you can more easily resell these for 80% break-even rates and profit the credit card points. Saveya, Giftcardzen, and Cardcash are all offering 80% for now. While there is the hassle of having to checkout multiple times (one checkout per $50 of gift cards), you may be doing that anyway in order to get the eBay gift card deal. While you’re doing the eBay, pick up the Sephora along with it and manufacture free credit card points along the way. There is risk of devaluation here as well, but the risk is smaller than with the Gap deal.
Fuel Points
Along with the great deals on gift cards, you’ll also be racking up lots of fuel points. The standard is to get 2x fuel points on gift card purchases. Some are reporting receiving offers of 4x fuel points until 7/28 – check out your account to see if you have this offer.
