Anybody else seen this one?
Just got it on 3 primary business cards.
I think it said something like "Stock up and Save" in the offers:

Get a $75 statement credit (limit 5 statement credits total) when you use your enrolled American Express® Card ending in 61002 to make a purchase of $250 or more in-store by 08/14/2015 at any of the following:

BevMo, Gordon Food Service, The Home Depot, Jetro/Restaurant Depot, Staples, or Total Wine & More

Any experience with home depot? I tried buying Visa GC but they keep ringing up with tax??

The tax may just be the activation fee.

The activation fee is printed right there on the packaging. Is it adding another amount and referring to it as a tax? It would not be the first time a store made this error. Office Depot once added tax to Vanilla cards I was buying. I told them it was not taxable and they had to email their corporate office to fix it.

I just bought 2 x $5 google play credits, but when I try to buy a CD ($9.49) it tells me that my balance is not suffecient. Could it be that I need to wait until the charges are no longer pending?

Or maybe are they trying to charge me tax?

Anyone have a similar experience?

The credit should be available immediately. My guess is tax.

Do you see the credit in your account? If you do you should be able to use it no problem.

Guess I'll add another 5 and see what happens.

Am I right in guessing that they don't let you split payment (use credit + another payment method)?

Correct.

So I might end up with a small balance stuck in my Play account, huh?
