If I'm making a mistake someone please point it out, this is how I understand it.

Assuming you max out 50K only using visa gift cards and you don't do any other rebate offers.
 You buy 242 $200 gift cards for a total of $50,081.90 ($206.95x242)
This costs $1,681.90 in fees.
Now 85 $20 rebates will net $1,700 leaving you with a grand total of $18.10. 

You'd need 85 names, emails, addresses
True, if you do all of them in one promo.

I know others who tried this and the they got rejected. They had to call up and say that they were a neighbor or a roommate. Real PIA

Ink plus (& bold) only earn 5x up until 50k a year.
That extra 81.90 will earn you 82 points.

If you only buy during a promo, yes.
But practically speaking & if you want to space out the 50k,only 170 VGC's have to be during a promo..which is daunting enough.

Sadly, I won't be able to us this deal. There is only one Staples within 20 miles and they are out of 200s, 100s, and have a tiny number of 50s. I spoke to the manager and she said that they only get deliveries on Mondays and that will be too late. The other Staples within 50 miles likely also have no 200s in stock and maybe have a few 100s, but I haven't called all of them (besides, I don't have time to drive so far anytime before shabbos).

I think the pain factor with unloading them needs to be taken into consideration as well. I've only had grief loading vgc to my serve.

Depending where you live, that can be a pita also. Although I hear the target in Hawaii lets everything go...

If I am mailing them, do I need to include the rebate receipt or just fill out the rebate form.
I used the same CC prefer not to send it if no need..

Why in the world are you mailing them instead of submitting it online?
