This is what I'm getting:

352.99 + rax & fees - $40 (new user) = $350.59

$350.59 - $100 (max Paypal 30%) - $17 (5% CB from discover/chase) = $233.59

How did people get $207?

Hey, just a quick clarification since this is my first post here: 1. This is cashback, not an instant discount. 2. I already received the iPad I ordered through Costco via Instacart, and everything tracked fine. • Discover shows 5% cashback already in my transactions. • The extra 5% will come later as part of Discover's first-year Cashback Match. 3. PayPal's 30% cashback offer works on any store within Instacart, but only some (like Costco) qualify as groceries for Discover. I haven't tested others. 4. Make sure to activate the PayPal offer before using it on Instacart—it won't apply automatically. It is exclusive to only some people. 5. Yes, Instacart Costco via PayPal still qualifies for Discover's 5% grocery cashback. It shows up as *PAYPAL INSTACART COST in the transaction.
Thanks for this. Got the 128GB A16 for $211.22 from Costco after factoring in 30% cash back via the PayPal Instacart offer and 5% cash back for groceries on Discover this quarter.

Works for electronics too—not just groceries! Confirmed on my own purchase of an iPad 11th Gen A16 from Costco via Instacart for $207 after taxes (after cash-backs)

Super weird: on Paypal the offer said it was expiring on 06/09. Then when i added the offer, it immediately changed to May 22. What the heck?

Does anyone know if Target would work? When I go to Instacart and select Groceries, Target shows up as one of the grocery stores.

You have until 06/09 to add the offer but once you add it, it expires in a week.

No reason it shouldn't. Paypal doesn't even see which store Instacart is using.

Thank you! Any idea on whether we can use the offer multiple times to max out the $100? Or is it just for one-time use, requiring us to order at least ~$330 to max out the $100 savings?

I guess, tax part varies based on location

Ordered the greenworks 800 CFM blower. Combined this 30% back with 30 off 100 instacart, but what made it sweeter was I had 100 in credit for an error they made on a previous IC order I had. I only expected a refund of the difference but they refunded the entire order plus the 40 off coupon I had so the timing was perfect to jump on this deal.

Does anyone know when Discover is used through Paypal does it code as Grocery and get the 5% cashback?

What I have seen previously is that the Paypal payment in discover doesn't stack with their categories bonus. Thanks!

If you are in first year of discover, they will match the cashback earned through the year. Making the 5% -> 10% cashback. But you will get the other 5 at end of the year tho.
