this deal will long gone way before April 1st Bro
Doesn’t the offer expire on the 23rd?
Yes, SumOfAll is correct. I mistakenly based my tip on the coupon expiration date. However, the deal does end on 3/21
Because they come with activation fees? That fee would be a higher percentage on the $250 card than on the $500 card.
Why would buying a $500 card maximize your profit? Wouldn’t it make more sense to buy two $250 gift cards?
2x$500 would be better than 2x$250. But in terms of profit in percentage terms, $250 would be better.
