$5.95 for the $100, i think for $50 ones are 4.95 or 3.95, not sure

I just did one and sadly no gas points...oh well. I was able to stack some other discounts and got two of these, some activia and yoplait rogurth, big bag of cheese (32oz for $4!!), eggs, and 2 bags of slices of cheese all for $205 Big Grin (I had an extra 1 off 10 special offer). The cheese were $0.69 each (limit 2).
great deals all around Big Grin
I used my discover IT that is still in the first year, so 10% CB Applause

So is the net "profit" here the 8.05 per $100 plus cash back per credit card? Could you do more than $200 or was that the limit?

The offer says $100 carda, but if there is any brave soul that wants to try $200 or more cards... I'd recommend the fixed value ones. I vaguely recall someone saying it worked, in a similar offer, but we dont know if it will work this time

My local Vons stop taking CC for Visa/Master/AMEX GC a while back, cash only.

I wish it works for me as I need to spend $5k on my new AMEX card in 3 months.

Maybe try again? It was probably a "policy" made up by the manager in turn...try taking a card with chip and matching id

Incorrect math... $5.95 fee per $100 gift card x 2 = $11.90 in fees > $15off - $11.90 = $3.10 net "profit" when buying $200 in gift cards plus credit card cashback.

plus credit card cashback.
Which is 5%, so not a bad bonus.

Worth it if you are already going there, not worth a special trip.
