The Offer
Direct Link (select ‘Plenti’ for all Plenti deals)
- Buy two Vanilla Visa gift cards at Rite Aid with your Plenti card and get back 800 points, or $8.
- Offer can be used a max of two times
- Valid 1/24 – 1/30
If we’ll assume you’re buying $500 Vanilla Visa gift cards, then you’d buy $2,000 in cards (four cards) and get back $16.
You can do all four cards in one transaction and get the $16 Plenti. Buying one at a time – like some cashier make you do – might not work. I’m not sure.

Stack with Amex Offer
What is particularly nice about this offer is that Amex has a targeted offer going on to get $5 off $15 at Rite Aid. That significantly helps the math. You can split up the purchase between multiple Amex cards as well (at least 3) if the cashier allows it.

Our Verdict
Now is the time to use up those Amex Offers. You may even get lucky and find the Rite Aid offer on your Old Blue Cash card, for a three-way stack.
For what it’s worth, here’s a somewhat related trick I recently (accidentally) discovered. A few days ago, I bought a Vanilla Visa gift card from Walgreens. Then somehow, on the way to Walmart, I lost the card. So, with my Walgreens receipt in hand, I called Vanilla, who agreed to cancel the card and send me a new one at no additional charge. It arrived today, with MY NAME embossed on it! This tip might come in handy for those who experience cashiers who don’t accept “debit cards” with no name on them.
Nice
The Vanillas at our RA are pinless, just FYI.
I tried to buy 2 VGCs at Rite Aid to help meet the minimum spending of my Barclarycard and I was declined. What gives?
More than likely it was a fraud alert to Barcalys. I make it a point to alert all CC companies when I get a new card from them befor emaking large purchases because it always triggers the fraud alerts
Probably a fraud alert. Call in to clear it up.
Plenti points not good for VGC, MGC, alcohol and not sure about merchants GCs.
You can split more than 3 CC but I don’t know the max (8?).
can these Vanilla gift cards be loaded to Serve? thanks.
You can, but not at Walmart. But then again, you will be in Rite-Aid anyways 🙂 Just make sure to open the package somewhere in the back and not in front of the cashier before going back to load them to Serve, looks a little strange to use the gift cards a second after you bought them.
Oh, how I wish I still had Serve…
Is this offer available in-store only?
Yes
Thank you..
I don’t know if I am brave enough to buy two $500 cards for the fear that my Serve will get shut down before I have a chance to load them (already maxed out for this month).
Not sure this is worth is then.
How about Family dollar ? because my local RA does not allow me to use OVs.
If yes, does it cost me any fees for loading the OVs to blue serve ?
can U still get the plenti points if u use plenti points to buy These giftcard
Can you even use Plenti points to buy gift cards at Rite Aid?
I assume it won’t work, but it’s been on my to-do list to try for some time now.
No. You can’t use Plenti points to buy gift cards. Merchandise only.
