I have been doing the OD/OM specials on visa gift cards while still owning the old Chase Ink Business card of which I will never let go. Between buying the discounted visa cards and the 5oo Amazon cards for my amazon spending, I do well. I am lucky enough to have an outlet for money orders but limit to 2k daily. Currently generating MR points as I have a huge stash of Chase. I see that Ebates is currently offering 4x at staples (Alaska and American shopping portals the same) so I bought a couple of the 300 visa cards so with my MR ebates account the points will be a little of 1/2 cents each since I'm using a MR amex card to do the purchase.
Good luck with the Ebates clawbacks from Staples VGC purchases. I've yet to have a transaction go through. Dosh shows as "pending" but eventually clears for in store purchases though.
