Indiana. Able to load BB or Discover for $200 at once and make money at the same time.

Super-newbie questions here:

1. Where does one typically find these for sale in the store -- behind the counter?
2. Am I correct to assume that if the promotion is running it will be advertised on a sign nearby? Or is it the kind of thing that's tucked away in a store flier or something?

Thanks in advance!

1. Look for a 4-sided kiosk that displays an assortment of gift cards on all 4 sides. It should be somewhere in the store.
2. There will normally be a sign on top of the kiosk.

The gift card stand is usually next to the register or in front of a random aisle. I usually just ask the employee and they're happy to direct me to it.
The promotion sign will be on top of the gift card stand. Sometimes, the store hasn't put up the promotion yet, but it is indeed running. Most of the time, employees themselves have no idea what the promotion details are.

The past few times it has worked out that way to get $30 off of $600. I think one time it did not start taking $30 until midweek of the sale. Other times just $15 off the entire week. Will need to test it out once the sale starts.

Yes, though the MCGC promotion this past week and ending today 6/10/23 says maximum of 10. So maybe next week's VGC also says that and 6x$200 could work or even more.

Absolutely.

I stopped into my favorite OD today for 3 MGC's because I was out of GC's for routine organic spend and saw the sign for the VI deal starting tomorrow.

The best thing was that I saw the BHN rep had been in to re-stock the racks since last month's deal.

Do you plan to be the DP for this potential play?

If you do, please post back and let us know if you get $60 off six cards.
