I've read GoC cards may expand to BBY. Now, if they're considered GCs, could you buy BBY GCs at a discount when PPDG or Cashstar runs those promos (and earn 3x or 5x UR with Ink), use BBY GCs to buy GoC, and essentially pay down your student loans at a discount or funnel the savings into a 529? I haven't put much stock into it because from everything I've read, GoC seems to be having some issues. DPs report the max eGC amount reduced from $500 down to $300, and physical cards going OOS or possibly being pulled from TRU since you can still load a max $500 on them.
ETA: I've posted this before, but it bears repeating since the subject of student loans has come up again. I've been paying student loans serviced by AES and Mohela using CIP via Plastiq, and they've been coding as 3x, which more than offsets the 2.5% fee.
Why would CIP code that as 3x? I wonder if CSR or the CIBP would code at 3x??
What is BBY and PPDG?
Seperate question, I have some business/sales/CLE training classes I take every year. Any thoughts on if those would code as more then 1x on any various cards?
