Do you like to stock up on Gift Cards when they go on sale? I used to stress out over birthdays and holidays to find the perfect gift, but now that I have kids of my own, I like to give Gift Cards especially when I’m pressed for time. I also like to give Gift Cards to teachers and relatives across the miles. What about buying gift cards before you shop or dine to save money? Sometimes I see Gift Cards go on sale at restaurants, and I am tempted to buy them after we order to use them the same day. Right now Albertsons and Safeway have them on Sale. Now through 11/3, savvy shoppers can double, or even triple dip on savings when they purchase select gift cards.You can save up to $19!
Here’s how:
- Earn a Coupon: Get a $10 coupon toward your next shopping order when you buy $100 or more in gift cards from: Amazon.com, Macy’s, Cabelas, Sports Authority, Overstock.com, Nike and eBay.
- Earn Credit Card Rewards: By using your favorite rewards credit card to purchase, you can earn points, miles or a percentage back on your purchase. Some credit cards even offer increased rewards for purchases made at grocery. For example, the Blue Cash Everyday® Card from American Express offers 3% cash back on groceries, and the Blue Cash Preferred® Card offers a whopping 6% cash back!
- Earn Fuel Rewards: Safeway stores offer double-fuel points for every dollar you spend on gift cards redeemable at Safeway, Chevron, or Texaco stations.
Here’s the math:
$10 off coupon+ $6 back if you earn 6% cash back on credit card grocery purchases+ $3 savings when you fill up with your Safeway fuel rewards ($0.20 off per gallon @ 15 gallons)
= $19 in savings!
