Our Verdict
eBay is always a popular brand for actual use. Not much of a resale angle for most people, good for actual use or for those with bulk selling relationships. AT&T used to work for 3x, but I don’t know if that’s still true since the July 22 change.
I’ve never had a problem with Mygiftcardsplus points hitting my Swagbucks accounts right away. My experience has been that when they run deals like these, they deliver the cards quickly (mine took 1.5 hours). AT&T used to work for 3x, but I don’t know if that’s still true since the July 22 change.
If you’re new to Swagbucks then please read our review. You can also get a bonus of up to $5 by using a referral link.

Sour Grapes.
That deal sold out too quick..... was even going to be a minor money maker, but in the half hour it took to get my buying lined up, t'was gone! (The Lowe's deal from same outlet 10 days ago hung around for several days....)
Title should be "Mygiftcardsplus: eBay Gift Cards 10% back in SB, up to $1,000 in GC"
Current title of "Mygiftcardsplus: 10% off eBay Gift Cards, up to $1,000 in GC" implies instant purchase discount.
There are limited words in title :)
sold out quick
Sold out :(
Also, mygiftcardsplus counts for Amex shop small offers
That is interesting! I'll add to Payments Workshop.
Data Point: Citi ATT Access More no longer earns 3x.
Thanks, I'll update Payments Workshop.
Review from a couple months ago says they like to shut down accounts for signing up, then doing a bunch of discover deals. Would this risk that happening?
MyGiftCardsPlus has canceled my GC orders for no apparent reason. Buyer beware. MyGiftCardsPlus/Swagbucks can be sketchy at times.
I haven't heard of that issue with deals like this, only with free money/moneymaker deals.
Can you turn that 10% into cash dollar for dollar or will you lose a few % in the conversion back to cash? Bulk sellers can get 91% FV so 1% profit plus you can use for min spend.
You can also increase the value of your points once a month as well. Can purchase an Amazon gift card at 10% off each month.
I think it is actually 12% 2200 SB's for $25 gift card if I remember correctly.
Swagbucks deposit into Paypal at 1cpp
Thanks!
Very nice, thanks Chuck
