Model: Disney - $50 Gift Code (Email Delivery) [Digital]
Deal History
Deal History includes data from multiple reputable stores, such as Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The lowest price among stores for a given day is selected as the "Sale Price".
Sale Price does not include sale prices at Amazon unless a deal was posted by a community member.
No need to buy from BJ's at regular price if you have a Target Red Card. 5% all the time, just make sure to transfer the values to a safe card number immediately.
BJ's will often have sales that go to 6٪ off. Combine that with warehouse stores 5٪ quarterly offers on Discover or Chase and you're up to 10.7% off top line. Can also get that when Paypal is on bonus. With the cashback earned, you can often leverage that to better than $ for $ by getting various gift cards from credit card company for 20% off.
However, Discover not showing warehouse stores on calendar for 2022. Chase doesn't announce theirs until just before a quarter starts. Best chance so far for 22 will be Paypal in third quarter.
Note this is only a deal if you weren't going to already maximize the quarterly cash back on the card. No point in buying $1500 in Disney just to get no cash back on everything else from warehouse store or Paypal that quarter.
Other strategy is to buy from grocery stores during promo grocery quarter. Pay full price, but get 5% back from card and do it during store promos for 4x fuel rewards. Coordinate your gas-ups with significant other and fill 2 cars and save $1 a gallon per purchase. (Don't shut pump off) For $250 in Disney gift card purchase, save $26 to $40 in gas depending on how big of a tank you drive. Your effective savings can be 15% or more but it's a hassle coordinating empty gas tanks.
One note on grocery and Target gift card purchases, I'd suggest immediately consolidating those gift cards to a card number you've got from somewhere else, even an ecard number to avoid card fraud from public racks. I've never had an issue with Kroger bought Disney cards, but did have a no value Netflix card and even an Arby's card drained by low life. Both companies made it right. Kroger shrugged their shoulders.
SD Users have reported being able to load these into the Disney App and using the balance at Disneyland.
Just Google the restaurant you are interested in and check in the Disney app if they take payments directly from it.

this cant be used for that overpriced food at DW right?
Yep, note there is a $1,000 limit per card and I believe you can only have 5 cards on your account at any one time (just remove the empty ones unless you might return something).
Heading to Disney st the end of the month so this could be useful. Anyone know if we can load these in to the app and just spend the balance or do I need to keep track of multiple cards/barcodes?
I was there last month and showed my barcode on my phone screen, wasn't aware of being able to merge gift cards like other commenters mention.

Are you staying on property? Disney world or land?
You can use the app and pay for stuff with gcs, but it's a PITA and you have to type in the numbers every time.
But, if you're staying on property, you can have the hotel load your GC to your hotel account and charge against that, as a default method of payment. Basically you're prepaying your hotel balance and it just deducts from that ad you spend. If you load too much, the balance can go back on the GC you originally used (just like with any Disbey GC payments like tickets), so be sure to hold onto it.

Yes you can merge. I forget the max balance, maybe $1k each? They have a website just for merging.
I payed for an entire vacation with GC last spring, nearly $10k worth, and I believe it was 10 cards. Yes it's a hassle, but it's also basically the only way to get a discount at Disney.

If you're staying on property you can go to the front desk and apply gift cards to you charges. Just don't wait until your final day, as the might charge your credit card before checking out.
I ordered one about an hour ago. Just tried again for giggles, and used the same account and same payment method. Went through just fine and have already received both GCs.

Staying off property this time but will still be spending money in the parks for food and souvenirs.

You can also use these at the hotel ticket sale places that you'd find at hotels not affiliated with Disney but nearby (specifically Anaheim)
