Anyone here know which participating site(s) GCs have the best resale value after Walmart?

I finally got my 10th gift: a $15 statement credit for my next purchase at Walmart...

Why couldn't this have been one of my previous gifts?... I think I'm going to try buying a $25.01 giftcard with a $25 giftcard and pay the rest with my Amex card

I did it and it worked. Anyone here get a $x statement credit with your next purchase at site x? Does Amex giftchain confirm when you've places the order and earned the statement credit?

I made 5 purchases but only got 3 gifts. I realized that when I made quick successive purchases at th same site the second didn't register

You can, but that wouldn't count as a $25 Amex purchase.

just realizing the smart thing to do would be buy a 25 and then buy a 50 with the previous gc and and an amex and keep combining ur gcs like that

can you think this is the problem?

I only lost $10.10 by using my 10 Walmart eGC to buy a $200 Amec GC and $50 Visa GC. I don't mind using them in December for everyday purchases.
