Here are some tips for saving with gift cards this holiday season.
- Wait for a holiday season when all merchants run sales.
- Use a shopping comparison website to find the merchant that has the items you want for the cheapest.
- Apply for a cashback credit card (some credit cards can give you 1-4% cash back on your puchases).
- Use the cash back credit card card to purchase gift cards to your favorite merchant at discount gift card sites where savings run from 15% to as high as 35% off.
- Browse online to find coupons for that merchant. Coupons can be combined with the gift cards purchased at a discount to save you even more.
- Then if placing the order online, first go to a cashback website where you can get cash back from the purchase you make online (these cashback sites can give you an additional 2-4% cashback, which is part of their affiliate commission they get from the merchant for referring you).
- Use the discounted gift card with the coupon you found to pay for your order online.
