Our Verdict
Retailmenot comes out with some nice deals semi-regularly. Looks like this is today only, Monday, January 28th.
Hat tip to my friend Mike
got an email today saying the credit was coming within 45 days.
sad i didn’t see this until this morning. was looking to buy tickets to a show this week. any way to set up my email subscription to the evening of instead of the morning after?
Not that I know of, but you can always use instant notifications instead
How long will it take before it shows pending?
Do you have to buy all $100 in one transaction or can you buy in multiple transactions where it adds up to $100+? Looking to buy tickets to two separate events and totals would be $66 and $45 (before taxes, fees ,etc)
One transaction.
Well that sucks. Deal is useless. Thanks.
RetailMeNot has pretty good deals every Monday. They had $15 back on $30 at Barnes & Noble and $15 back on $30 at Staples. Sorry forgot to share. I have an alarm now set for every Monday to check RetailMeNot Monday Deals.
Thanks, please share in future <3
great deal for baseball tickets this season
This was huge for me. Anderson Paak has been sold out in Chicago for months. The price was perfect at $105, totaling $135 after fees. $85 bucks isn’t a great deal, but certainly better than any other option. Craigslist sellers were only skeezy 2nd hand ticket seller companies. We doubled up with Player 2 as well. Thanks DoC!
Also, try not to be a schmuck and do this as a moneymaker for reselling. Scalpers are loathsome individuals. Just one man’s opinion…
Enoy Paak!
Is the service fee considered as handling?
Yes. I would go by ticket price straight up before all the tacked on fees.
It’s crazy they charge $30 fee and then another $6 fee to the buyer. This is on top of the fee they charge sellers. Definitely would not buy from them unless I’m desperate. 🙄
Is there another resale market you prefer? Obviously it’s usually best to buy direct from the ticket office, but assuming I need to buy from the secondary market, I generally have found Stubhub reasonable compared to other sites (Vividseats, Seatgeek, etc.)
TickPick has no buyer’s fees.
Will this work buying tickets with StubHub GC credit or do I have to use a CC? I have $300 worth of credit on my account to use up at some point and could use this opportunity to buy some MLB tickets for the upcoming summer.
Same question. Otherwise I was buying tickets anyway, and I will BTDPYWTS
What is BTDPYWTS?

I feel like that should be a motivational bumper sticker
I just bought a $100 StubHub GC via Gyft and used it for $116 payment. However, I don’t think the offer is going to work because the “purchase” amount comes out as $16 since the $100 GC is considered a “Discount”, which is probably the amount that StubHub sends to RetailMeNot. Should’ve just used a CC, but we’ll see.
Would have to agree with this reasoning, I didn’t put enough time into a dummy booking before I posted that. In any case I chickened out and my total purchase price is still over $100 after the same “discounts” that Carl mentioned, so I will not be the data point I wanted to see.
When buying from StubHub I always use a cashback portal, and more often than not I make at least a portion of the payment via SH gift cards and/or SH Fan Codes. When getting the cashback I’ve NEVER gotten it on the full purchase price but rather only on the portion of the purchase that I actually paid for using a credit card.
Stubhub will report the ticket prices before fees regardless of gift cards used. It should work for you
