When reporting a new offer please post here http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=49544.0

To take advantage of an Amex offer, first save the offer to your card, then do the spending. There are a few ways to save offers to your card; http://www.amexoffers.com/ has links to most of them. Depending on the offer and depending on your Amex card, it may be available via none, one or more than one of these methods:

americanexpress.com web site
Log into the americanexpress.com web site. If you get the new version of the site, scroll down to Amex Offers & Benefits at the bottom of the page. If you get the old version, click the Amex Offers For You tab. You can also see on this web site which offers you already saved (even if you saved them via a method other than this web site) and which offers you already redeemed. This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express.
The maximum number of offer that the site will show you is 100. If you already have 100 available offers, there may be other offers that they are prepared to show you, but are not showing you because you already have the maximum. To see additional offers, save one or more of your available offers and then refresh the list (F5 in most Windows browsers).

Saving an offer on AmericanExpress.com to one of your cards will automatically make it unavailable for the rest of your cards linked to the same login. The way to get around this is by opening all of your cards in separate tabs and then saving the offer in each.  **

**Sign into different tabs?!?
Sign onto your Amex account. card #1 is on the page.  scroll to offers. note a good one. 
Open  tab 2: amex.com (or with Chrome, right click on the first tab and choose Duplicate) > you are already logged in.> go to my accounts > click on card #2  on the top of the page. scroll to offers. check for same good offer. 
Open tab #3. repeat as for tab #2. Repeat as necessary.
THEN: on tab #1 - click 'save' .  Then on tab #2 click 'save' . Then on each tab.
If you so desire: check on each card's 'saved offers' to check that it's there.

This link should take you to the Amex old layout,
which is much easier to scroll down through all the offers.

Amex® Mobile app
This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express. The login is the same as for the americanexpress.com web site.

Dedicated web site for enrollment
Some Amex offers, most notably Small Business Saturday, but also NYC Restaurant Week, Home Depot, Amazon and DirecTV, offer a dedicated web site where you could enter your card information to enroll.

For Bluebird/Serve cards
Amex offers can be saved via the bluebird.com web site. Go to Plan & Manage > Amex Offers. Amex offers can also be saved via the Bluebird mobile app.

For cards not issued by American Express (such as Amex cards issued by Citi, USAA, PenFed, Bank of America, etc.)
Add offers to your card at this site: https://www.americanexpress.com/us/network/shopping.html
You will be prompted for your name, card number and email address.

You can buy $600 in Shoprite GCs on 4 cards  for $480 and then buy 3 x $200 Visas.

Nobody has ever tried buying GCs with GCs there?

Why not just buy 4*$200 visas on 4 cards for 680+~20 fees?
I'm blaming sleep deprivation  ;)

Your way: 827.80-120=$707.80/4=$176.95 out of pocket per $200 card.
My way: $620.85-120=$500.85/3=$166.95 out of pocket per $200 card.

Yup I paid six fees. Customer service said she doesn't think they usually carry 200 ones.
I'm gonna try another location next week.

Shoprite in freehold has $200 gc's,  but I didn't get an email confirmation after purchase.   :(

Yes.  I signed up 4 cards and got all 4 email confirmations. 

I used 2 of them in 2 separate transactions and hot no email.

Anyone else here shopped at freehold that did get a confirmation after purchase?

Nice to hear,  but I haven't seen even one report in this thread of someone not getting an after purchaseemail cconfirmation. 

I'm wondering if for some reason that specific SR is coded differently or something. 

To get the credit manually is gonna be a pain bec their gonna give  me the 8 week speech.

Dunno, thought SR is more "yeshivish". (IMHO they should allow buying GC with store brand cards, they should be as good as cash in SR.

I have not found a single store (and I've tried many)  thy says it's allowed.
Even if it works,  it's against store policy. 

So when you ask they'll say no (and it just raises awareness),  if you just try it,  it may work.

Doesn't really matter what they should, etc.
Just matters if the system allows, a la BB, Staples, etc.

Another option would be to buy gas GC and have 20% off ur next bunch of fillings...
Compared to staples through Ink (just shell gas); 4 UR (1.8) x150= 10.8

I have no idea why 1.8 is showing a symbol...    Its pretty cool though
