I got next weeks ad today. Looks like Staples GC's are on 5x next week. I'm all loaded up through the end of June, but I'm going to use this deal to get the points I need for July. This deal isn't the cash cow I was hoping for in the middle of dad's and grads season, so I might hold off until the following weeks ad comes out to see if there is a better deal right before fathers day.But this can still be profitable for sure.
Here is my best idea for liquidating.
- Every $1,000 earns $150 in gas assuming full 30 gallons
- Staples GC's can be sold on Cardpool for 86% this pretty much washes out the gas savings
- But Topcashback.com is paying 4% of the value of gift cards that you sell. So that will net you $40/$1000 on top of whatever rewards you get from your CC

Any experienced staplers got any other bright ideas on how to get more value out of the GC's? I thought of FAR stuff, but didn't see any available right now.
