Dollar General's gift card promo is strongest for Xbox and select restaurant cards, with 20 percent off Xbox Game Pass cards and discounts on brands like Cracker Barrel, Cabela's, Bass Pro, Domino's, Burger King, Panera, and LongHorn. The ad is confusing, though, because the picture shows Game Pass Core while the text points to Game Pass Ultimate, and the $10 off two $25 cards offer appears limited to one transaction. Store policy also varies, since some locations only accept cash for gift cards. A practical pick if the right card is in stock and your store allows card payments.

Common Questions (5)

  • It varies by store. Some Dollar General locations only accept cash for gift cards, while others accept credit cards with no limits, so it's worth checking your local store before shopping.

  • The flyer shows Domino's, Xbox, Burger King, Panera, and a few other brands; Domino's appears twice. PF Changs is not on the flyer, and the $10 off 2 cards $25+ offer is limited to one transaction.

  • The ad is inconsistent: the picture shows Game Pass Core, while the text says Game Pass Ultimate. An in-store sale tag reportedly showed the Game Pass Ultimate card graphic, but the exact discounted card should be confirmed before buying.

  • Microsoft only sells Game Pass as monthly subscriptions, so double-dipping with this gift card deal does not work. For online play, the lowest needed tier is Game Pass Essential, and five $25 cards would cost about $100 with this deal.

  • The maximum balance on an Xbox account is $1,000. That matters if you plan to stock up on multiple Xbox or Game Pass gift cards.

Last year during Thanksgiving weekend, they had McDonald's, Popeyes and Jersey Mike's gift cards at 20% off. I'm not seeing this offer anywhere yet but hopefully it turns up!

I thought this same thing for a switch 2, but if I'm looking at the ad correctly, GameStop is bundled with Domino's. I don't know about you but I don't want a ton of domino's credit. Please do correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm starting to find DG stores in DMV areas that only take cash on GC purchases. They never said why, but they have signs so you wouldn't need to wait in line to find out at the cashiers. Technically there is nothing preventing their point of sale device from taking credit card payments, but they just won't do it. I've been telling them that credit card purchases on GC can be traced, whereas cash introduces money laundering issues. I don't know why stores are doing this. I have two DG stores within 40 miles apart that do things differently with GC purchases.
  • Fraud Prevention: Gift cards, especially general-purpose ones like Visa or Mastercard prepaid cards, are a common target for scammers who use stolen credit or debit cards to quickly purchase the gift cards and then deplete the balance before the fraudulent transaction can be caught and reversed.
  • Chargebacks: When a stolen card is used, the legitimate cardholder reports the fraud, and their bank "charges back" the transaction. Since the funds on the gift card are usually spent immediately, the store (Dollar General) is often left responsible for the loss, as they cannot recover the money from the now-spent gift card.
But, it does vary by store. I have some stores near me that accept credit cards and some don't for gift cards.

Any idea purchase limits?
For the $10 of 2 of $25 each flyer says you can only get one. Maybe no limit on the others but there are only 5 brands (Domino's shows twice on flyer).

Can anyone identify the two remaining gift cards on the 20% off sale? I'm guessing PF Chang's and unsure of the other.
I don't know where you are even seeing PF Changs at all- the flyer shows Domino's (twice), xbox, Burger King, Panera, and a couple others. On the $10 off 2 cards $25 or more there is no PF Changs and its limited to just one transaction. View here on page 6 https://blackfriday.com/ads/black...ral?page=6

I don't see why not. I remember buying a PS5 Fortnite bundle last year for like $330 after tax when I bought it with Gamestop gift cards.

I'm sad this year that there's no PSN card sale.

For 20% off in the second image, the right bottom corner is Popeyes. I'm from New Orleans 😂

Edit: I figured them all out, for 20% in the second image. Candy Crush Saga was the hardest lol.

Going clockwise starting from top left corner:

Candy Crush Saga
Zaxby's
Outback
Cold Stone
Popeyes
Krispy Kreme
Red Lobster
Cracker Barrel
IHOP
Darden Restaurants

No 15% cabelas for Black Friday?
In the second image, there's cabelas and bass pro for 15% off. The second image appears to be from page 12 of the black friday ad, for those only looking at page 6

I used to get my cousins a year of xbl every Xmas but they changed that to something different now.

What combination of these cards would I need to buy for them to have one year of online service each?

They literally only play fortnight and maybe some form of halo. If there's one with fewer bells and whistles that's better for them.

Sorry I'm a Playstation guy and I only ever need to know this once a year.
You would need Xbox GamePass Essential (Used to be Xbox GamePass Core and Xbox Live Gold before that). There are other tiers, but Essential is the lowest needed for online play. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-game-pass#join

The Essential plan is needed to play online on console. It costs $10 a month. It comes with other stuff like 50+ games you can play. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-g...essential_

You would need five of the $25 Xbox gift cards ($125) for one year ($120) for each person. That would cost $100 with this deal.

Even with that it's not a good deal. You can buy 12 month of Xbox Game Pass Core for $75.

https://www.gamestop.com/gift-car...01317.html

If you can find one with the old $59.99 price posted in-store at Target on the physical card itself, Target will price match that and override what they have in their systems.
