The Fine Print
- Valid 8/13/17 – 8/26/17
- $15 savings code will be provided via e-mail on 9/5/17 for use toward a future purchase made from 9/5/17-9/18/17

- Savings code may be redeemed online and in store
Our Verdict
These $15 codes expire and can’t typically be sold. Not the greatest deal, but a lot of people find these useful for reselling or personal use. You’ll also earn Best Buy Rewards with the purchase if you input your Rewards number at checkout on Cashstar. Use your Ink Preferred card and let us know if it works for 3x.
Note, this won’t work to trigger the Amex Offer deal of $30 off $300 since this e-gift purchase  is processed through Cashstar and the terms exclude that.

Can the $15 saving code be used to buy a 3pgc at a best buy store?
Yes, including Best Buy gift cards with no expiration (though YMMV on Best Buy).
What happens if use multiple $15 savings codes to buy something at BB and then return the purchase. Will I get a BB GC that never expires?
As far as I know you can combine those codes into 1 GC which then won’t expire.
effortless $450 spend, you rock Chuck.
Thanks!
Anyone know if you can you use multiple gift codes on a single purchase.
I’m almost positive that these temporary gift codes function entirely like ordinary gc, with the sole exception being that they expire. As such, I’d guess you can use multiples on a purchase both in-store and online.
How is “max 3 per customer enforced?”
I assume per email, but they might track IP address, billing address or other things too. Not sure.
I think it is email. I set up 3 accounts last time – same IP and billing address and it worked. I just did 3 more. I also recommend setting up separate Best Buy Rewards account for each. Legit customers, it is not per household. I also use different credit cards for each.
can we still use best buy GC to buy other GCs?
No. Order will get cancelled shortly after it is placed.
I had luck using codes in store last time around to buy physical BB GC.
It can work in store though.YMMV
