The Offer
- Mygiftcardsplus is offering 10% back on Lowe’s gift cards in all the various denominations
- Additionally, as a one-time deal, they are currently running a promotion to get $2 back on any gift card purchase, so the actual discount on the Lowe’s will be slightly more
The discount is earned in the form of Swagbucks. Swagbucks are worth at least $.01 per point. There’s also currently a sale on eBay gift cards if that interests you.

The Fine Print
- This offer expires at 11:59pm PST on September 30th or while supplies lasts
- Limit $500 per member for duration of promotion; any Lowe’s purchases after the $500 mark will not receive the promotional Cash Back amount
- Your SB will credit when your electronic gift card is delivered
- Cash Back is paid in the form of SB points good for popular gift cards or PayPal cash
Our Verdict
Lowe’s is always a popular brand, and with this sale you can even buy a single large $500 gift card if you wish. Not much of a resale angle for most people, good for actual use. AT&T used to work for 3x, but I don’t know if that’s still true since the July 22 change.
I’ve never had a problem with Mygiftcardsplus points hitting my Swagbucks accounts right away. My experience has been that when they run deals like these, they deliver the cards quickly (mine took 1.5 hours). AT&T used to work for 3x, but I don’t know if that’s still true since the July 22 change.

I bought a $50 card last week to try it out and got the gift card fairly quickly. I went to buy more today but i dont see the 10% in swag bucks anymore. Its only showing up as 2%. I didnt see anywhere that said it was only on the first purchase. Anyone else having this issue?
Just a heads-up to anyone considering buying these, I’ve made successful purchases from MyGiftCardsPlus in the past, but when I tried to buy $200 of Ebay gift cards from them last week (they were having a 10%-off sale that they emailed me about), MyGiftCardsPlus canceled my order, citing “fraud concerns”, which makes no sense considering I’ve only had successful/fraud-free interactions with MyGiftCardsPlus/Swagbucks in the past.
I emailed both MyGiftCardsPlus and Swagbucks and neither have replied.
I know some folks say that Swagbucks can be pretty sketchy at times (banning people, clawing back points for seemingly no reason), but I’ve had decent experiences with them up until now.
If this kind of thing starts happening more often with MyGiftCardsPlus/Swagbucks, then you might want to think twice before buying one of their GC deals.
Caveat emptor!
Last week I bought a couple ebay e-GC from Swagbucks and it took 72+ hours for them to be delivered to my inbox. Just a word to the wise if anybody else buys them for anything they want to purchase immediately
+1 They are slow.
Maybe so in the past, yet one dp: place my first order with them last night at 10:20. Received my order in same in box 45 minutes later. Not a bad start.
Ah, o.k. Thanks.

I see if you order 1 $100 card you get 12% back. But 1 $500 and you only get 10.4% back. Weird. So the only way to get the full 12% back is to make 5 separate $100 orders? Or am I missing something?
The 200 SB per card bonus is limited to one time per store with a $50 minimum purchase. So if you get one $50 Lowe’s card, the total cashback is 14%. After that it’s just a flat 10%.
I should clarify this in the post.
