But e-gift cards can be redeemed for a certificate of equal to the value of the e-gift card at any of the participating restaurants from what I can tell. In addition, I don't usually see deep discounts for the larger amounts like the $50 certificates and higher but you can get the e-gift cards on a number sites fairly cheap.
I see that some have mentioned that E-bay sells a lot of the egift cards but I have also seen them on Amazon and Coupontrade.com I know that Ebay and Amazon have been around quite some time but has anyone used Coupontrade.com that can give an honest opinion?
I have started buying $100 eGift cards. You can use them to convert to any denomination of restaurant specific cert. So if you use a $100 eGift card to get a $25 one, you will have $75 remaining. The $100 eGift cards are the cheapest from a per$ standpoint. Buy them during an 80% off sale for $8 each. That works out to $2 per $25 cert, less than buying four separate $25 eGift cards. I bought three during the last 90% promotion for $4 each.
