My main question about staples is if the payoff really worth any of it. 1000 points per gift card but a (I think) $6 fee. So let's say you go Amtrak rewards which is about 4000 points or 44 bucks one way in my region. So that's 4 cards - but $24 in fees...so is it worth the 20 dollars saved?
Edit: I guess I kinda answered my own question considering how many do it..and if I'm saving 20 bucks on a ticket I needed to buy anyways.....it is lol
