Disney Gift Card Deals

I can't figure out where to find my ebucks balance. I used to go to summary, then click ebay bucks, but that's only showing my history of purchases? Concerned because I activated the bonus bucks, then placed an order for Gamestop physical cards through cardency, it showed I would be receiving 8%, but then on confirmation, it showed only 2%. And now I can't find any info anywhere. I feel really dumb, but the ebay bucks page is not giving me the info I'm looking for.
I couldn't find it either.

I had to call PayPal to have my account reset again with in depth questions. Then, when I went to pay I thought I could pay with my gift cards BUT NO! Paypal grabbed the money from my balance and my bank account. I didn't even get a chance to use my credit card OR my gift cards. This is quickly becoming "not fun".

ETA and of course I went to churn all $250 So now I have $250 BB cards at full price with no discount. I guess I'll just have to set those aside to churn later for my Disney dues.

Crap, I do not want to call. I think it's just an issue on my computer. I actually just checked on my phone and the page for my ebay bucks balance is loading correctly there, and I did get the bonus promo on the cards I bought, thank goodness.
 
I bought $300 in Sears for a net price of $223. I could have done better had I gotten to Kroger but I didn't want to chance it.

Just went to grab 2 of the Sears cards and I get this!

To help protect your account, we limit the amount of items purchased by a single account at any one time.

This buying limit is temporary. You can come back soon and buy more items.

Protect your eBay Account: eBay will never ask you to enter your personal information - such as credit card number, password, or other -- in an email.
 
Has anyone had this happen to one of their transactions? I wanted to buy physical GS gcs before attempting anything through PPDG so I bought 2 $500 cards. I then attempted PPDG (which eventually went through) but got stuck in the verification loop. When I logged into my account, it said I had unresolved issues, then when I clicked on it for more information, it says they're investigating my physical GS gc purchase. Ugh...

Sears allows other vendor to use their website. In this case, GCM sells Target cards on Sears.com. Makes me cranky that they aren't on ebay as well.

I know. Makes me cranky too lol. I think GCM sells Target pretty much everywhere else but ebay.
 
So I called eBay and they said the problem was with PayPal and I called PayPal and they said that there was no attempt to make the Sears purchase so it's not them.
 
This is the first eBay Bucks promo I HAVEN'T received since I started the end of last summer. And I've been waiting SO LONG! Thinking about doing it just for the 3% Ebates and regular 2% back. Our cruise is in exactly 2 months and I need about a thousand more for excursions. Decisions....
 
I got the promotion in my email (saw it on my phone), jumped on my computer, clicked in ebates, made several purchases, and then realized I had forgotten to activate the promotion. GRRRRR!!! I checked ebay's help page, and saw nothing, so I just clicked on a random problem, and then said I wanted to call them. It took a while, but ebay credited my account for the money I would have received if I had activated it in time. So the moral is - it never hurts to ask ebay.

I am going to let my breathing get back to normal and then come back.
 
Went to GS today to see what gift cards they had and lo and behold they have eBay now! So, I didn't have my latest GS printed out with me and didn't want to push it by showing it on my phone. But, I had two of the $30 ones I bought and an older $50 that I had from awhile ago. I bought a steam gift card my son for $20 and got $90 on eBay. Didn't want to raise any eyebrows and just feel it out. The guy did ask if I had a membership and I said yes automatically so I did earn points. But figure the first time won't raise any red flags with GS anyways. Then I went to BB and bought $100 Disney and $100 eBay with my $200 Best Buy I got during the last ebucks promotion. Sales girl asked if I had membership card there too and I said I do but didn't think I got points Paying with gift cards. She said you do, I didn't want to argue so I let her scan my card for it. Next time I will just say no because I have been buying in store for a few months now, but never more than $300 and usually only once or twice a month so my numbers aren't huge. Then I got home and read about the ebucks promotion!! Yippe, went to eBay and bought $200 BB with my gift cards and only chipped in $10 with my credit card. No issues with PPDG. Phew.

Does Kroger not give fuel points when you buy online? Giant eagle does so I bought some eBay gift cards to get the sears deal. Assuming chase credits the purchase as a grocery store (which AmEx previously did) I'll get the 5% back plus fuel perks on top of the 4x promo and 3% ebates :)
Now here's to hoping Kmart will let me buy Disney again!!! If not I guess I will put it toward new patio furniture we have been considering.

I put an order through on Bestbuy.com after successfully receiving my PPDG (first time - no problems). I tested it and of course it got cancelled but I had went through Ebates and got $1.50 back. We'll see if it stays! Fingers crossed I don't have any problems redeeming for eBay gift cards in store.

So are you saying you bought at GiantEagle.com today to get your GC? Were they delivered electronically? I am confused.

I am from your area it appears. Just bought a discounted Sears GC...what Kmarts have you been successful at?
 
Well my Sears has both eBay and Disney but they wouldn't let me buy with a gc. Pointed me to the back of the Sears card which clearly states that and told me that the "security guards" told them not to.
