Did you ever get a gift card to a place you would never ever go? Like, say, a gift card to Burger King when you’re a vegetarian, or to Sephora when the fanciest thing you put on your face is Jergens lotion? Or have you ever wanted to make a large purchase at a store, had the money set aside for it, and wish you had a way to make that money stretch further?
Swing over to Giftcardspread.com! If you have a gift card that you won’t use, they’ll buy it. If you’re looking for a gift card for a major chain store or restaurant, chances are they’ll have it at a discount of anywhere from 1% – 33% off the actual value. I managed to buy a Claire’s Boutique $25 gift card for my daughter’s birthday for only $16.88 – that’s a heck of a savings. If you have a gift card to sell, it’s very simple to do – you enter the name of the merchant, the current value of the card, and how much you want to get for the card. After that, within 24 hours Giftcardspread.com will email you either accepting your offer, or offering you a counter offer if your initial offer was too high.
If that doesn’t sound like enough of a reason to try them, there are also Giftcardspread promo codes available online that can lower the price of your gift card purchase. A certain finance writer uses sites like this for large household purchases. For example, let’s say you have a home repair that you need to do, and you know you’re going to buy your supplies from Lowes. Go to Giftcardspread.com and see if there are any discounted Lowes gift cards available, and pay $90 for a $100 card, and buy $100 worth of repair supplies from Lowes. Then take that extra $10 and treat yourself to a drink for being so handy and clever with your money!
So if you have gift cards from well-meaning but clueless loved ones, turn them into cash you can use anywhere. If you have a purchase coming up, use the power of discounted gift cards to save money on that purchase! And don’t forget the potential savings for gift cards as actual gifts – the cards still have their full value, so the recipient never has to know that you didn’t spend a full $100 on that gift card for them. They’ll still get $100 worth of fun!
