Holiday Gift Card Promotions for 2017

December 4, 2017 | By Rich | |

If you plan to buy holiday gift cards to give to friends or family members for Christmas, you might as well choose cards that give you a nice bonus in return!

Holiday Gift Card BonusThis year, many popular restaurant chains, and even some local restaurants, are giving away bonuses with each gift card purchased.

Typical gift card rewards range from a $5.00 bonus for each $25 gift card purchased to a $10.00 bonus for each $50 gift card purchased. One local restaurant in my area is giving out $60 in bonuses for every $60 purchased!

Often these bonus rewards have a catch, so be sure to check the terms and conditions. The most popular catch is that your reward is valid for a limited time, and often not valid until after January 1. Many gift card bonuses I’ve received in the past were valid from January 1 – February 28, or something similar.

If you usually buy restaurant gift cards at a local grocery store, drugstore, or gas station, or even online at Amazon.com’s gift card store, please keep in mind that these holiday bonuses are typically available only when purchased from the restaurant directly, or on their website.

Wondering if your favorite restaurant is running a holiday gift card promotion this year? Check out USA Today’s list of 2017 holiday gift card bonus offers for starters.

What’s the best deal you’ve seen on holiday gift card bonuses where you live?

    You are a genius!!!. I have a question, those discounted gift card sites, there are two options to buy online gift card or physical card (the online gift card also has a voucher) Can I really use the voucher in-store? have anyone tried this?

Money Wisdom from the Bible

"Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share." - 1 Timothy 6:17-18 (NIV) Click for more of the Bible and Money...
