Before I started adding in GameStop, I was using Kmart to get ebay (or Disney, if available) cards in order to avoid spending too much through Target..... Also, there's no shipping charges on most Kmart and Sears cards......
So, if I had a Kmart card, they should take the physical cards to buy Disney cards or don't all stores allow?
All my orders from last week were delivered today. Target really needs to get those $100 Disney cards back in stock! Got a set of Disney $50s ordered from Target and $300 of my kmart cards turned into 6 $50 gamestop cards, which are now a single $300 ebay card and 6000 gamestop points
Nice! I'm still waiting on an order from the week before, should be today. Still have three small orders from last week not even shipped yet! Wondering about the Gamestop points I've seen you mention. I don't do any games or anything of that sort at all, so are the points for games and such? Would you mind sharing what the points are and how they help you? I really like the little bit of GS I've done so far, but only plan to use gamestop to avoid target a bit, buying gs from ebay, then ebay from gs, ending in buying target, to make some ebucks. Would points help a churner like me or not really?
That option is never available for me through GCM. I get this option through Target though....
The option is available thru my Ups account, over the $750. When I get the email that I have an order coming and it requires a signature, I go to my UPS account, choose release for no signature and where to leave the package.
If you have a few thousand in Ebay, then I guess it wouldn't matter if you did GS first or not. When we did it for the last promo, we were working with the $1650 in Target GCs I had on hand and we didn't want to convert all of that in two days, so we converted $1k ($500 per day over 2 days) and then spent that $1k first on GS for the $100 in ebucks and then on Target, once we had it converted into Ebay again, for another $100 ebucks. ...
Yes, I am addicted to getting free money
Ha, hard not to be addicted to free money! Love it! Well, GS may be a good first start to get extra ebucks to get to the max earlier, using a promo the most you can in case you don't get the next one. I did it last time to get my DD25 some extra ebucks, since she'd had only one other promo, and without having to do so many Target cards ordered, and my account was maxed. I may start this way again, too, if I have time.
So, what is everyone doing with your ebucks? Holding until we get an ebucks promo, or will you go ahead and spend them to get the money churning? If we go off Jan, which was an ebucks redemption period, we did not see an ebucks promo until Jan 21st, right? So, does it make sense, in any way, to go ahead and use those ebucks to buy Target or GS or whatever store you churn through first and then get them converted back into ebay to be ready for the next promo?
Well, I've got a trip to DL in May. Yay! And, I have enough to have some ready to churn, while holding back on a quick redemption of my ebucks. So, I wanna use the ebucks we got, (500 from my account and 338 from my DD25's account), to get Target cards to get the Disney cards. But, that might come too late if I have to wait till too late in the month, so I'll wait maybe a week or two weeks, then probably put my plan B in place, lol. Luckily, I have enough other Target cards I can use in lieu of those to get my Disney cards in time for my trip, and when/if a promo comes, I can redeem ebucks then and will pay that target stash back. If no promo comes in this month well, I'm still good where I'm at and I can redeem for just their value without extra ebucks. But, why take away my possibility of making some ebucks from my ebucks, since I do have some play in there? Plus, I want to use the good amount of Ebates I will get on 5/15, and TCB. I plan to take my own cash to cover those amounts to convert to cards, or use as cash, before the release date from Ebates. When the 15th comes and my cash back is released to my paypal account, I'll just take that to pay that back, as that release date is just two weeks after I'd have to have to convert in store. So, for me, I think it makes more sense to wait to see if a promo comes to make some ebucks, since I can still use the ebucks and ebates earned to my good benefit for our May trip. Then I'll start working on our Nov trip with the cards I have for that churning! I'm not sure, if all goes well and I have time to buy Disney cards thru Target, if I should do that, or go in store and lose the 5%, to avoid put another $1000 thru in gc's, Disney cards.
I order three $100 ebay gift cards, one $50 ebay gift card, and some notebook paper. Everything was canceled.
