Our Verdict
Best Buy is always popular, just remember that savings codes are expiring codes. Also, keep in mind that Best Buy gift cards can no longer be used to buy most third-party gift cards at many Best Buy locations which kills the deal for a lot of people. Not sure if you can buy Best Buy gift cards with the savings codes or if that’s dead as well in those locations.
If you want to max this out, either buy three $150 e-gift cards or you can buy a single $450 e-gift card and get all three $15 savings codes if you prefer that (it’ll show clearly at checkout as being eligible for three $15 codes). The codes will still come as three separate $15 codes.
Cashstar e-gift card purchases typically do not work to trigger Amex Offer deals. I don’t have any data points for Best Buy specifically, but most likely not.
You’ll earn Best Buy Rewards with the purchase if you input your Rewards number at checkout on Cashstar. Check the credit card bonus categories in our Payments Workshop. No portal.
