Gas Gift Card Deal

Direct Link

  • Purchase $100 Circle K gas gift card for just $95 from SVM on eBay. Limit 3.

This is a great deal, especially when stacked with 8% back in Bucks. You can also get 2% back from Shopathome for eBay purchases currently or you can get the rate matched by Topcashback. See also Best Shopping Portal for eBay Purchases.

What to Buy

If you have the 8% bucks offer, you can take advantage of it by purchasing whatever you need now and lock in the 8% discount.

  • If you use Circle K gas, the gift card deal mentioned above would be a good place to start.
  • Buy any other items you need on eBay.
  • You can also purchase many other third-party gift cards on eBay and lock in the 8% discount. Purchases made from Paypal Digital Gifts can also yield you 5x points for a total of 15x back after accounting for the Bucks, portal, and credit card points! See our List of Best Options for Full-Price Gift Cards on eBay for some good ideas of which gift cards to buy.

Personally, I usually wait out the 8% bucks deal and try to maximize the 10% bucks deals when they come infrequently, but if you have stuff you need to buy now it could make sense to purchase gift cards to those merchants and take advantage of this offer.

Seems like useful discounted gift cards have been REALLY sparse here lately.

I agree. Has anyone bought any gc during this promo? I was going to buy Target gc but all but the $25 ones were sold out and the shipping made it a loss.

Man, I haven’t gotten a single one of them after I hit hard the 5x one in the end of September, while I was constantly targeted before that. But I don’t care much, I haven’t been trilled about any of the deals in the meantime and I still have a bunch of giftcards I need to get rid of (and the bucks certificate, which I have to cash out tonight).

Just noticed gyft clawed back portal $ from tcb for the last ebay gc I bought. Not counting on that 2% any more.

Haven’t shared that experience w/ TCB+Gyft.

Check your Gyft account and see if you were given points in lieu of the portal tracking. I have had that happen before.

I doubt it. It’s not even list in GCW. Hopefully there will be some new sales today or tomorrow.

Despite not being listed on GCW, Cardcash will buy them…for 78%.
No dice.

The gas card is 95$ so it doesn’t qualify for 8x, does it?

It should if you buy 2 or 3 of them. The $100 minimum is per item.
