FAQs:
(1.) Can Happy cards be purchased by self-checkout?
No. (It either will tell you to go to a human or tell a human to go to you, both ways have human interaction, bleh!)
(2.) Can Happy cards be purchased with a Lowe’s gift card?
No.
(3.) Can Happy cards be purchased with a Visa gift card?
Yes, but because a $50 Happy card prompts for I.D. verification when running credit, it’s wise to pre-register your PIN and choose debit.
(4.) Can Happy cards at Lowe’s be purchased with a Happy card from a different store?
Yes, but may take convincing, subtlety showing a different card with your name, or a petition to change your legal name to ‘Happy Card’. During the previous Lowe’s promos, I used Happy Father’s Day from Safeway for fuel rewards in June (all Happy cards removed in July) and Happy Holidays from Discover for 20% off in October (“Limited Time Offer ends 12/31/2021 or while supplies last”). https://www.doctorofcredit.com/discover-improves-redemption-rate-on-some-giftcards-including-20-on-chipotle-happy/
(5.) Can Happy cards at a different store be purchased with a Happy card from Lowe’s?
Yes, ineligible Happy cards (e.g., Happy Student or store GCs, HD/Lowe’s, etc.) are available at some BB&B locations and can be purchased with the Happy Her and Happy Moments from Lowe’s. During this current promo, I scored 16.7% off Lowe’s (would’ve been 33.3% off w/ Discover points). Also note that BB&B split payments (using multiple cards to pay) requires manager override in-store, is not an option online, but works on telephone orders for organic shopping w/ 20% coupon.
(6.) Can I start an infinite loop of purchasing Happy cards with those purchased Happy cards?
No, or at least I don’t see that angle here. Perhaps I missed something?
(7.) Can Happy cards be purchased $500 or more at a time (i.e., on the same receipt)?
Yes, but requires manager override, or to split it up to get under $500, and that you change your IP or use VPN during claim submission.

can I use a lowes gift card to buy the happy cards?
“Not a huge discount/deal but could be useful for some”
$10 on $50 is a 20% return. That’s pretty significant – of course you’d need to weight the advantages of purchasing GCs through other channels. Does anyone know if you can use a Lowes GC to purchase these Happy GCs at Lowes? You can potentially double-dip by taking advantage of a 4-5X (or better) card to purchase the initial Lowes GC at a grocery store or pharmacy, and then flip it at Lowes to get the additional $10 GC.
Is anyone seeing the Happy Holidays gift card available? It has Lowes as an option on it. Also, are we permitted to purchase these with the prepaid Visa giftcards? Thanks!
there appears to be a VGC option now too?
do you know if any Happy cards apply or just Happy Moment in the picture?
There was an inclusion list of 3 Giving Good cards earlier this month and an inclusion list of 12 Happy cards for the promo before it. You’ll find the most likely answer to your question is that it’s neither any/all of them nor just the one.
