Today I got an email from a B2B rep at BJs as I've purchased $1,000 - $2,000 at a time in the past for upcoming trips, notifying me of a current promotion. Even though they would be the only ones to know that I had placed previous orders, I was wary of phishing and was not going to call someone and give my credit card info. So it worked out, as I was able to place an order on their web site and then email him the order number and because I bought 50 of the $100 cards he added another $199.50 discount off the order due to the promotion. So if you have a big trip planned and will be buying a stack of gift cards anyway, see the email chain from this evening and send an email to one of the two B2B reps noted in the thread to arrange for the extra discount - goes until the end of October.

We are running a promotion on the Disney gift cards from now through the end of October. Since you have purchased Disney cards in larger quantities from BJs.com in the past, we wanted to reach out directly to see if you are interested in placing any orders for cards at this time.
We are offering discounts from 5% - 8% off of face value depending on the size of the order. Please let us know how many cards you are interested in and we will place the orders on your behalf through BJs.com. We have inventory available so we can ship with our standard 3-5 day lead times for card activation.
Please feel free to call directly if you would like to discuss in more details.

Jeff, thanks for the quick response. We are looking for orders above $5,000 to qualify for the full 8% off of face value discount, for a $92 price on the $100 cards. For $2,000 we would be able to offer a 5% discount that would give you a $95 price on the $100 cards.
Let us know how many cards you are interested in and we can set up an order for you.
Thank you,
Bryant P. Sullivan

Bryant,
OK thanks, I will take $5,000 worth, they don't have an expiration date so those should last me for quite a while!
Thanks
Jeff

Bryant,
Done - order number is 8145xxxx
I am a regular participant on a Disney forum and it's a popular topic on how to get better deals on gift cards. Did you want me to pass your email addresses to the forum users? You may get a few responses or a lot, but I wanted to check with you before posting the addresses.
Thanks
Jeff
