Got the email 30 minutes ago. Too bad they put the kibosh on the ring sizing kit trick to convert the certificate to a GC.

I got one for $10 that expires on the 18th but it's not working when I check out. I think the issue is that my original best buy account I manually entered my gmail. Then later on years later, I signed in using the gmail portal. For some reason the certficate shows a different member id than the one I see on my best buy account. My luck.

This is a good option as $0.99 filler for those items under $10 total. https://www.bestbuy.com/product/g...J7GSL49Z24
Thanks but I ordered a laptop usb-c charger which was > $10 by itself.

bought this energizer 3-in-1 charging stand.

https://www.bestbuy.com/product/e...ku/6631374 [bestbuy.com]
Already picked up and it works well to charge my iphone and iwatch.
That charging stand or this? https://www.bestbuy.com/product/e...ku/6631369

Has Qi2, foldable for travel, seems like a newer model for a few bucks more?

What are people using this for? Hoping to not spend a whole bunch of money just to save $10 Smilie
The nimble wireless charging pad (with 20W AC USB-C supply) is still on. $8. Works well even with cased phones.

Just take the time to look around their whole site and just pick something up that might be useful to you that you might need. Could be cables, or something else that is cheap that you might need.
Getting cables at BestBuy is for suckers. They probably profit more off that than their TVs. They cost almost nothing to manufacture and best buy buys them for pennies and promotes them like it's the highest quality ever when most cables in the digital world we live in now are basically all the same. It either works, or it doesn't. you can get cables on Amazon/ebay, etc. for a fraction of the price.

This has probably been mentioned, but the slickest way to use these certificates is to simply buy an item for the same amount as your gift certificate that also comes with a bonus best buy gift card. Unlike these gift certificates, the best buy gift cards that they come with NEVER expire. You can make multiple Best Buy accounts and keep doing this every time they have this promotion and compile these gift cards over time and finally use a bunch of these gift cards for a higher ticket item instead of what a lot of people are doing and buy cheap $5/10 items they don't really want or need. I ended up getting a TV for insanely low price after adding multiple gift cards to the cart just buy doing this.

BB shut down the ring sizing kit loophole. Best bet is the $10 PSN gc (holday version with a bow on it)
Then you can resell the gc
what do you mean they shut it down? what did they do exactly?

Do you have a link to an item that works with this reward? The Oura ring sizer does not

No, i didn't know that no longer works. Can you explain how it doesn't work anymore? I see it for $10 and it comes with a $10 gift card. Does your order get cancelled after you place it?

When you checkout your reward is not available to apply to the order.

The loophole (ring sizing kit deal) was shut down

You can no longer purchase the ring sizing kit with the promo gc. If you place the order for $0 total (after promo certificate), order gets auto-cancelled and you lose the promo certificate. CS reps will not issue a new one. If your order is not auto-cancelled you get the ring sizing kit but no gc

No items currently qualify

Auto-cancelled by system, promo certificate lost and cannot be replaced by CS reps

The PSN gc (holiday version with blue bow) works for this promo certificate even though it is not supposed to (gc is a restriction that is supposed to apply to these promo certificates)

Any way to use it for gift cards? Specifically looking for a steam one
Cannot be used on gc, though the PSN gc (holiday blue bow version does qualify)
