Costco e-gift card 10% off $500

Costco.com has $500 Southwest e-gift cards for $449.99, limit 5. "Two days only", which presumably means August 12-13, 2023.
Be sure to read the fine print for limitations including this:
  • A maximum of three (3) Southwest Airlines Gift Cards can be applied per passenger on each reservation.

My costco in Carlsbad Ca has an entire display in the store so I would think they are going to be around for awhile.

And again ($450), only two weeks later. I'd say, "Southwest and Costco, get a room," but now comes Alaska with the same deal. (Per Costo.com.)
ETA: Right up at the top of Costco's emails. Must be performing well for them.

Back again today at 10% off ($449.99 for $500 GC). I had a $40 off $250 online coupon from using a Groupon to get a membership, so my net cost was down to $410.

If I use a Freedom card for this purchase, will it qualify for the 3Q bonus points (total of 5 points per dollar spent)? Or is there an exclusion for gift card purchases?

While there is always the usual caveat about "cash" items like advances and casino chips being excluded, every GC I bought at Costco or BJs is coded no differently than purchases at those establishments so I don't **assume** it will be a factor. But you know what Felix says about the word assume...

Never had an issue of GCs counting towards Chase's 5% bonus in the past.

I tried to buy these a second time on a different date and it wouldn't give me the extra $20 off.
