Get a FREE Gift Card with Your Gift Card Purchase at most Stores!

It’s that time of year when companies & stores starting giving out FREE Gift Cards! Here are some of the best gift card promotions that are happening right now:

• MasterCard: Register your credit card & when you spend $200 online, you will receive a FREE $20 MasterCard Gift Card
• Barnes & Noble: Spend $100 or more on gift cards & you will receive a FREE $10 Barnes & Noble Gift Card.
• The Children’s Place: Spend $40 or more on gift cards and get a FREE $10 Children’s Place Gift Card
• ExxonMobil: Spend $100 or more on gift cards & receive a FREE $10 ExxonMobil Gift Card
• Outback Steakhouse: Purchase $100 or more in gift cards & receive a FREE $20 Outback Steakhouse Gift Card

Almost all stores are running a promotion similar to the ones listed above right now. So, every time you are in a store doing your holiday shopping, make sure to ask. Also, most companies will let you purchase the gift cards & then use a gift card to purchase deals in the store immediately after. Just something to keep in mind when you are shopping to help you save a little bit more.

Keep in mind, these gift card promotions are a great way to save on your Christmas gifts, and they are also a great way to save a little throughout the rest of the year.

For example, if you know you will probably purchase most of your kids clothing from The Children’s Place during the coming year, I would purchase the $40 in gift cards now (to use on all your purchases in the future) because you’ll get the FREE $10 Gift Card. Whereas if you wait, and just use cash in store or online down the road, you’ll probably end up spending the $40 anyway & not getting the freebie. The same scenario could apply to the ExxonMobil or the Outback Steakhouse deals.

If you come across a store that’s offering a *HOT* FREE gift card promotion & I don’t have it listed above, make sure to come back and leave a comment about it.
