Need the big brains here:
Currently I have an offer on the BBP for Staples- get 10% back up to $40.
I need Disney Gift Cards for my upcoming trip.
I'd rather order the cards online instead of having to physically go track them down, and I see that there is a slight surcharge for that, so for $400 worth of GCs the total is $407.96. Theoretically I should get $40 back so total expenditure would be $400 worth of gift cards for $367.96.
- Is my math correct?
- Do any of you have experience with buying these online from Staples, and does it in fact "credit" on your Amex?
- Is this actually a good deal, or am I better off buying Disney GC's at Target for only 5% off but I have to use my regular Target debit so don't get any points/UR's/CR's anywhere for the purchase?
I do NOT have an MSR right now on any card.
What would you do?
