I was looking to cash out a gift card and noticed they added a Walmart gift card option, and they are adding 5% bonus. Goes from $5-200.

I held out for YEARS after doubling my money on that deal - like $2000 between 3 cards.

Now the best, repeatable, deal seems to be around the Holidays when they offer Happy cards @ 20% discount, and the card is accepted at Lowe's where you can buy 3rd party GC with it, so for me it's basically an Amazon 20% discount. That's happened the past 2 or 3 years.
But why buy a gift card for 5% off when you can just use PayPal at Walmart to get 5% off?
No gift cards with gift cards anymore.

Is that written on the card?
Yes; "run as credit" or "online redemption required" or something to that effect.

This is a terrible use of discover points. Capital one Walmart card is always 5% online. For in-store, I just load up on some discounted gift cards from raise and keep a balance in my Walmart pay account and use that to check out.
Chase Freedom offering 5% off Walmart for their Oct-Dec '22 bonus category, Buy as many Walmart gift cards as you will need or purchase merchandise directly from WM using chase freedom.

Pay with Discover via PayPal.

Pay out of pocket $450 and get a $500 Target gift card. Gain $22.50 in Discover cash back (5% Quarterly Reward).

Net effect of $427.50 paid. Pretty good deal here.

Thanks for this! Hopefully that comes back. I'd like to buy Apple gift cards since they no longer offer 20% off on Discover anymore

Edit: Lowes is not currently an option for any of their "Online as Credit" gift cards Frown

👎🏽👎🏽 you can get a walmart visa and get the same amount.

Walmart has a MasterCard with Capital One... If there's a VISA, who has that card?

I get the Discover 5% part but where is a $500 target GC available for $450?

That's the best GC deal I got this year. Saw the 20% off happy gift cards earlier but didn't like the selection. Still waiting for some better deals.

As I said SOME of the card they sell are "run as credit". Just pay attention to what you're buying first.

As a rule of thumb, merchants generally do not allow you to buy 3rd party GC with their own store GC if they sell 3rd party GC.

Sorry I still didn't get it. Once you get Happy gift cards from discover deal comes as a email with code and a pin to redeem in the website. Only option is to convert to merchant gift card that can not use as credit card in the store. As I know u can buy plastic cards only if u buy from store. Is there any work around this?
