Thumbs up Targeted: MR for Home Depot GC 20% discount until 07/31

Hi all,

I just noticed 20% off on $50 and $100 HD Gift Cards through AMEX MR. Basically 8k points for $100 HD GC. This offer is valid until 07/31. Also available on Pottery Barn GC and William Sonoma GC. I just ordered my $1k worth of HD GC for 80k points.^

This caught me too. I think the OP is paying MR points for the GC, and it costs 80 points per $ of GC.

Ok, that makes more sense. Thanks for the clarification.

Sorry about the confusion. Yes, I am trying to redeem MR points to get HD GC. I have tons of MR points (~250k+) that I am thinking of liquidating. I am slowly transferring to Chase UR points. I do not travel much anymore and want to redeem the MR points for more than 1cents per pt. This promo of HD GC provide a wonderful opportunity for me to liquidate my MR points at 20% bonus since I do quite a bit of purchases at HD anyways...

Strange, for me, the $100 HD Gift Card is still 10,000 MR points...

I see the 20% bonus on my account as well. But I'm not planning to redeem them for HD GC, I have some travel plans in the works and MR transfer partners (not that I have too many MR points left either) will be very useful.

Make sure you are logged-in in your MR account. I first tried to go from amex account to MR account and could not see this offer. I had presumed that since I went through my AMEX account, I may be already logged in to MR account. When I logged in separately for the MR account, I was able to see the offer.
