Discover.com is offering Discover Cardholders: 5% Off Walmart Gift Cards when you Redeem Discover Cashback to purchase the gift cards from Discover's redemption portal.
Thanks to community member maxjf for finding this deal.
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.

I wouldn't want to test that theory on a $5000 item where you paid $500 with your Discover card and the rest with Lowe's GCs. I've never heard any CC covering the entire purchase when their card was used for paying for the fraction of the total cost.
If you're paying for standalone extended warranties, that's always an option, but it eats into savings by buying and using GCs.
Some cards used to warranty the whole amount as long as you paid for some of it with the card. But it's hard to find that now. Citi dropped most of its great extended warranty. I used Amex on a recent purchase at Lowe's along with some discounted gift cards. Amex only will pay up to whatever I charged on the card.
The only downside of this is losing any extended warranties from credit cards on those big ticket purchases. I try to use GCs for items that are not in that category.
Edit: learned this isnt work the effort/may not work anymore lol
You are a godsend I've been sitting here racking my brain about what stores can you buy gift cards from with a gift card, thank you thank you thank you
Not a great option for use of the rewards...either hold out for a another shell deal (unlikely), or use your reward points with the companies you shop that offer 15% or 20% value - Bath and Body Works - 20%, Nike - 20%, Lowe's - 15%, and pair them up with a Slickdeal on the purchase/redemption!

This is the answer, wait for happy lowes card and buy any gift card at lowes
I don't buy Shell gas, generally more expensive than any other place. BUT, I did empty out my (3) Discover CC's then resell the cards for nearly double my money.
We all dream this will happen again, paid for my gas for almost a year

Wait I must have missed that deal. How do you save 5% at Walmart with Paypal?
