Lol, that's what I alluded to in post # 2
...Visa/MC/Amex gift cards always are sold with a Fee..3-7+....so if you get 2 cards for $90..you are getting back more than what was printed in the ad. I was able to get 26 * $50 in this deal w/ 5x...on to the next deal...

I bought 30 of them...woot woot. I thought I've seen similar deals at staples which is why I thought this deal was actually for $89.90. Good for us who got in on it.

Gotcha..Congrats, I remember one with Staples but you had to deal with rebates, waiting, and store gift cards. This one was nice as it was all done on the register. Hope these return!

Wow, I wasn't sure if it was a glitch or not. I'm glad I got in while I could. I'm in for $6000, all on Ink cards :-) I got them from 2 different OM stores. Any suggestions on how to liquidate these, aside from AP?
The Staples promo was a little more work, but I ended up selling the Staples GCs on like Plastic Jungle or one of those sites. I went $13k in on that one.
Definitely want to say THANK YOU to the OP for pointing this one out. I find SD's site to be so chaotic and difficult to find the treasures buried in pages of blender, TV, cell phone sales.

Dead. Want to buy $100 worth and it rang up as $99.90.
Probably not a surprise when people are buying $1000s at a time and probably bringing tons of attention to themselves. People really can't control themselves can they?

It's funny to me that this deal is reported DEAD even when you still make a dime per $100, while the Vanilla cards you pay $3.95 for each $500.....
If you really have that much trouble unloading a $50 Mastercard.... feel free to send them over.

True, it's not technically dead, but it's not as good of a deal as it was before. For an extra $10 per $100 I'll deal with the hassle of buying $50 gift cards in multiple transactions and figuring out a way to unload them. Now that it's about even, I'm not sure it's worth the hassle unless you have a specific goal in mind.
