5x Bass Pro Shop next week. Feels like we should be due for another VISA/MC soon. Maybe the week after.

It better to be the week after- that way the points will expire in end of March.

IIRC, in past years we do not see much activity until March, with things picking up pace in the summer months.

Bad news. Ebay is not letting me purchase gift cards using the Ebay gc I just bought at Stop and Shop. I've tried Appleby's, Home Depot, Sears and Walmart. This is not good.

Correct. You can't use eBay GC's for other GC's. It's been like that for at least 6 months, if not longer.

It's been more than a year, I think. It makes holding onto ebay money not so valuable. At the same time, Amazon changed its policy to allow gift card funds to be used for other gift cards.

Correct; My records from 2016 and 2017 show no Giant Visa/MC GC promos from mid-Dec until early March.

Next promo to earn gas pts *likely* March 2 / 9 / 16, 2018...

Next week is UBER, JCPenny, GameStop, Ruby Tuesday, and some more store cards.
Nothing of much interest

Recently bought my usual $500 VGC at S&S with my linked Mastercard on FR and I only received 15 cents/gal on my fuel rewards, which is only 3 cents/$100 spent. I've been getting 15 cents/$100 spent, which equates to 75 cents/gal for each $500 VGC purchased at S&S. Anybody else getting the same?

How recently was that? My purchases from the beginning of Feb posted as expected. Is it possible that you've hit the promotion limit?

With no other Giant Visa/MC promos, I've been buying 3 $500 Visas every couple weeks, which gets me $2.25 off a gallon (plus several more cents from other promos). No problems with posting; the points show up after 2 days. The promo limit is $125, right? So this means I can do this 55 times, right? That's not going to be a problem for most folks. :)

Actually, I mixed up the two different FR cards I had. I did receive the correct discount as usual. I really hope Shell extends this past 3/31/18.

Giant
 
I can tell you for myself one giant store near me doesn’t post the mastercard deal correctly at all, not even on groceries. While the next closes store posts correctly everytime. I verified this my checking my fuel rewards transactions
