Buy from gift card resellers
There are several websites that buy unwanted gift cards from people and then sell these cards at a discount - sometimes for almost 30% off! And, if the company accumulates too many gift cards of the same kind, they run a sale. So, take some time to set up alerts for all your favorite stores, just so you know when new gift cards are in stock or if there are any sales being run - these cards go super quick, so you’ll need to be fast!
Buy your gift cards from a warehouse retail store
Warehouse retailers like Sam’s Club and Costco sell customers gift cards at a discount (sometimes even 20% less than the face value of the card). So, you can use your store membership to get cheap gift cards for Google Play™, Starbucks®, Dunkin Donuts®, Regal Cinemas®, AMC Theatres, and many other popular brands. You may even be able to order these cards online.
Buy gift cards in bulk
The next time you are at a drugstore or grocery store, make sure to check if they sell gift cards in bulk. Many retailers do, and the price is usually far lesser than that of the actual value of the card - this is a good idea if you are looking to give multiple people the same gift card. If you want to save even more, some grocery stores even offer promotions that will help you earn either points or cashback for buying gift cards. For instance, the store may offer you a cashback of $5 if you spend $50 on gift cards.
Make use of holiday bonuses
A number of restaurants and stores offer promotions on gift cards around the holiday season. So, for instance, if you were to buy a $25 gift card, they may throw in a $5 gift card. If you want to take advantage of such deals, start paying attention to in-store signage and radio advertisements when the holiday season is nearing.
