With that being said, I have followed the rules and have received 13 back. I mail in for Sunday (and put Sunday entry on the envelope) and have done a couple bonus entries.
Sad to see people still trying to cheat the system even when it's mail in only.
Its like those darn Allure giveaways where people say "I entered for me and all 498 of my BFFs, and they all got in in less that 4.7 seconds".
Really? That's not the spirit of things. If you're not filling out your own darn requests and mailing them, its S-T-R-E-T-C-H-I-N-G the rules.
Yeah, keep it up. They'll keep making the rules more stringent like they did with Allure.
Thanks for making it less friendly for everyone.
Just my 2 cents.
Can you please explain what you mean by bonus entry time? If you mail in a bonus today and tomorrow, you'll get the bonus? I've sent some in but have received nothing special back. Also, how do we know what the bonus days are?

1. Get your codes and verify their value on the VS website
2. Download the Gyft app (gift card manager)
3. Choose the store (VS) and add the reward card code. It will try to find the amount on the card but will fail because it's not a true gift card. Enter the amount manually.
4. Confirm the info is correct and save that card. Repeat until you have them all loaded.
5. You can now use the generated bar code in the store to use them all in one or many transactions, the associate will have to scan each one. If they ask, you simply bought a bunch of gift cards from some website
I don't have any experience doing this, just wanted to know if others can confirm.

Every time VS has an offer for receiving an extra "bonus" SRC you can send in an extra request for another SRC. (It tells you in the rules how to address the envelope differently).
For example, this past weekend, Saturday and Sunday, people could get a bonus SRC just for buying a bra. (I think that was the promotion!). Other times they just issue a code for a bonus card with any purchase above $10.
I watch for VS deals so I know when the bonus days come up. They may or may not have another time when they issue bonus SRCs since the promo ends next Monday.

As for handwringing them. I was told by 2 reps they would only accept them in handwriting. I printed some then a supervisor said that should be ok.
