I was just looking back through some of records I kept on deals back in the day...
I think I use to make money off some of this stuff.
Check this out...
Reel.com $25GC through AMEX and get $10 I did this a bunch, ended up with quite a few GC. These GC cost me $0.60 per $1, 40% off!
BrandsForLess would do deals like $25 off a $50 order and shipping reimbursment.
I, no doubt, would use a coupon for say $10.
So fill up the card with $68 of DVD's
$68 of DVDs
-10 coupon
-----
$58 subtotal minus tax
$58 paid with GC that cost me $34.80
or
$34.80
-25 BFL rebate
-----
9.80
total cost of $9.80+tax for almost $70 of DVDs!
I see some other things here that are boggling my mind...
Buy a reel.com GC for $30 get a $20 bonus credit from Amex and a $10 pruchase discount. So $30 for FREE! How many times did I try this?
Other things... BFL $30 back on a $50 purchase, $50 purchase was $50 in GCs so $20 get's ya $50.
Many of the GC deals would later be combined with other deals and I have no idea how I ended up paying cash for the hundreds of discs I bough...
