Taxes: Federal Refund 10% Bonus from Amazon
« on: December 22, 2013, 09:23:33 PM »
Amazon is offering a 10% bonus when you use your 2013 Federal refund to purchase Amazon GCs up to $10k.
I know this topic has come up before, but is there any good way to liquidate Amazon GCs?
It's free money anyway, you'd might as well get another 10%.

Same thing would be for those of us with many amex AU that signed up for the amazon/amex promotion.

You have to use TurboTax to file your taxes. I have no dl'd yet, but I imagine it's one of the choices of how to receive your refund.

AFAIK not.
Unless you buy stuff on Amazon and then sell it...

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.
