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 bought the Pokemon Cafe Remix Golden Acorns Pack code as a filler for my order. I have no use for it so it's free for the first person to PM me.

I recommend the 2-pack of 6.6ft INIU 240W USB-C ($10.53) for inexpensive but good quality, future proof charging cables.

I literally had this in my cart until I realized I didn't get the certificate Frown the barcode in my account misled me.

I got this several times a while back and did the Samsung ring to get the $10 best buy certificate each time. Now it no longer works?

Can you use this on any gift card? If so, which ones? Or It has to be physical or digital?

What is the best thing you can get with it assuming you don't want to spend extra money? Are there any cables or USB flash drives for $10 or less? So if the total cost is less than $10, you just lose the remaining certificate balance? Or the pretax amount for the order has to be a minimum $10 for order to go through? I still have about a $2 balance left in my last $10 best buy certificate from the last order I made a while back. I had saved up like 3 of those $10 best buy gift card certificates from the ring order thing a while back and bought something and still have about a $2 balance.

Are there any cables or chargers or anything like that which is worth it where it's around $10 so you basically just pay the tax for it where the total comes to below $10 or so? Someone mentioned if you buy something for $7, try to buy another thing for a bit less as a filler? Someone mentioned a power bank that is $9.99 but said that didn't work because the order has to be a minimum of $10 before tax?

Someone mentioned buying printing paper and that seems to be $7. So would that be the best option? But find another item that is $2 or so so it would be $9 and total after tax would be below $10? I notice you could buy AA or AAA batteries. Can you do this? If so, does the total amount need to be minimum $10 or not? What items are good for this?

I got one of these $10 Best Buy gc last time with the Oura ring kit. Are these gift cards regular Best Buy gift cards? Or are these promotional gifts cards with certain exclusions?

What are the best items that you can buy? Can you buy the printing paper for $7 or does your order have to be a minimum of $10?

Could you buy like 2 packs of batteries where it cost $4.50 each so it comes to $9 so after tax it would be a bit under $10?

Could you buy 2 packs of batteries where it cost $4.99 each so it cost under $10 before tax but more than $10 after tax? Or the minimum pretax order has to be at least $10 so you would just pay the $1 additional tax?
So the only gift card you can get is a playstation gift card? I don't play video games and haven't for a long time. So if you have to use it for something, it makes sense to use it for this?
What are people using it with?

ICYMI, these certs will work with items sold by 3rd party sellers, including AnkerDirect.

I considered a bunch of different items, but none were compelling enough, so I got desperate and settled on an Anker 30W nano charger [bestbuy.com], which is nearing the end of a sale period for $11.99.

Two bucks and change for an Anker product isn't too bad. Shipped free as well.

Ugreen his a similar adapter for the same price [bestbuy.com], and it can be found in BB stores.

It supports the optional 12V PDO output profile, for those who seek that feature. Otherwise, it's a coin toss between the two.

Promo expires at midnight, CST.

Total must be over $10 before tax. I've bought printer ink & paper, batteries, phone case, charging cables, Wrap-It products (several different items), HDMI cable, power bank, flash drives, and several other items.
