I went and did my Kroger run for Target gc getting ready for Sunday.
I did the 3 Amex coupons first and got a $25, $100, and a variable load (my coupon was no activation fee for a $50 OR variable load) for $270 - total was $399.99 (for some weird reason) I put on my Amex blue cash preferred for 6% back. The 4x fuel points didn't register so I called. I was given 540 at the transaction then the lady on the phone gave me 1600!!! so that transaction alone netted me 2140 fuel points.
Also used a $50 Amex gc from my bday to get a Target. at my second Kroger I exchanged the 3 Amex gc to Target and grabbed a few extra gc on sale like the Bath & Body, Brinker, and Outback.
**I notice the best thing for me on these visa/mc/amex gc to other gc is to do a 1 to 1 exact tender. I show them my ID when asked and provide my amex cc (not the gc I just swiped). I like using self checkout as well. All transactions worked without issue. You do have to wait a little while for the Amex/Visa/MC to activate to use. I basically stopped at one Kroger on way home and then after got my kid went to another one I have en route.
OOP $499.99, Fuel Points: 4500 (worth $135 as we use $30 of each), Target after Sunday's 10% off $655 (included about $190 in free gc I have for Target) that I will slowly transition to Disney, and $30 cc cash back. Not too shabby!
