The Offer
I received an email from Giftcardmall about a promotion they are running:
- Get $3 off the purchase of a Visa gift card with promo code: SWEET17
The Fine Print
- Valid 10/21/17 – 10/26/17
- Valid on physical Visa gift cards only; virtual products and all other Store and eGift Cards are not a part of this promotion
- Quantities are limited and the offer is only available while supplies last
Our Verdict
The activation cost is $5.95, after the $3 discount it’s down to just $2.95. Go through a shopping portal for an additional 1% back on Visa gift cards. I see 1% back at Topcashback, Mrrebates, Givingassistant, and more (if you’re new to these portals, our appreciation if you sign up using our referral links). Hopefully the portal will stack with the promo code (sounds like it could work). There is a shipping fee of around $10 for high-dollar orders; lower amounts have a free shipping option.
If all works out, it’ll cost around$498 for a $500 Visa gift card, an excellent deal.
I’ve never once got an order through with Giftcardmall, I don’t even try at this point. For those who can, and have a way to liquidate these, this can be useful for meeting a spend threshold and the like. Check out payment options in our Payments Workshop.
