Consolidating those online (if that's what you plan on doing) will be a pain, since you can only use 4 GCs per order...

I have plans to be in Wal-Mart soon. I'll just do it there.

They don't have any of the pick your own price gc's? I've seen those around in stores and the activation fee is still only 5 or 6 bucks but you can load up to $500

Hmm... I'll have to look more closely next time. Thanks for the heads up.

Looked into the loadable GCs/debit cards today at the store. You apparently cannot reload them with WalMart GCs.

Will probably just go for $200 VISA/AMEX GCs for $3.

I actually didn't have any friends on my FB account that was linked to this so when I claimed it it came up with an error or something like that. Few days later I got this email from amex
just opened the link myself a few times and no problem

How long did it take to get the e-mail. I thought I had friends linked, but seems not and got error message, but never got an e-mail from them.

On another note, I started getting the amex gc's in the mail today.

Just got 4-$10 AMEX GCs in the mail.

Still waiting for a few more $10s and a few $25s.

Just got a couple of amex GC's. Interestingly though I got another envelope from with the same return address "Rewards Headquarters" But it was for a chase reward. Looks like they outsourced to the same company.

Finally got my big AmEx GC in the mail today, woot! Came via UPS, with the same envelope as all the other come inside of it. Guess they wanted proof of delivery.

Didnt realize this gift even existed, but got an email today for a 10k SPG Cert! Will be interesting to see when it comes if it is xferable...

Has anyone had success with claiming the FB gifts with a FB account that the names do not match? I have a ton of gifts in other people's names that I am trying to claim for them... Started making them all FB accounts but FB logs IPs and is making it very difficult.

TIA!

AJK · « **Reply #459 on:** January 11, 2012, 04:50:50 PM »

You don't have to create new FB accounts. Names do not have to match.
