no. 1 transaction
cashier didn't say a word about a limit per customer & the system automatically gave $10 off every gc

Anyone else try that yet?

Funny math.  You also could have $22 cash back with Barclays Arrival or 1,500 UA miles (~$25.50) with UA Club, etc.
Gotta subtract the other opportunities from that.

Might have been best, but it's not 70% off.  It's only as good as the next best card would have given you.

Made $54.05+ shopping for $77 worth of items at staples!!

I just used my $240 in ecards that I paid $200 for and $45 (on my ink card) to buy 2 cases and 4 reams of paper, a $200 Mastercard, a better binder (30% off). I'll be due back for $71.96 in rebates, $15.05 in UR points (worth $27.09 @ 1.8 ) and a $200 gift card. This adds up to $299.05 back for $245 paid + whatever the regular points I'll get, (maybe 25%+5%) for a total of $54.05+ back and all the items purchased($77)!!

Cardpool.com will send you a $40.50 check for a $50 Gap giftcard, I just saw. So you would come out a little ahead. Do you think this is worth it? Is cardpool reliable?

Cardpool is reliable but you need to decide if its worth the $2 each you'll make if you use your ink card minus the 47 cents paid for shipping. If you buy 20 (assuming the store has 20) then you're making $39.53 (or more if u don't want it lost in the mail), and if you bought the egift cards then you'll be making another $40 minus the points lost for not using the ink card ($12). Soooo: paying $800 for 20 cards makes you $39.53 or $67.53.

Good luck!

I just submitted the Easy Rebates and an looking to get 2 $28 visa cards and $15.92 via paypal!!

Yes, it looks like they added pqypal as a way to get your rebate for some of the offers!!

Been that way for awhile already.  Only rebates under $10 have the PayPal option.

And you could have changed the $28 rebates to checks

I just received my 10 $100 visa gc that I ordered
Last week each with a 20% off coupon earning almost $200 out of this game (and no they did not cancel my orders)
Now question where do I get the code to activate them? It says that it will be mailed to purchaser but I did not receive it with the gc. Will they mail it separately? Or am I missing something here?

I happened to need to make a purchase at Gap today so I went to Staples and bought one for myself and 10 to sell to Cardpool for a profit of $44.13 ($5 from Cardpool + 2200 ur points @ 1.8=$39.60 - $.47). It basically paid for my purchase and a little more

I forgot to value the Chase UR points at 1.8 and add the $.50/card from cardpool, which would make 20 cards a profit of $82 (shipping to cardpool is FREE). Not a bad profit!!
