I just got word that Simon Mall is extending the $1,000 Visa gift card promotion through August 31! This is exciting news if you’ve been maxing out this promotion since it started two weeks ago. If you’re like me and mostly waiting until the weekend to bulk up on $25,000 purchases, it’s even better.
There has been confusion at some locations about who is allowed to buy these $1,000 Visa gift cards. A few readers who visited the Folsom Outlets reported that the staff told them the promotion was for “established gamers” only. I asked Simon Mall corporate about this and they verified that anyone can buy them. The staff at that location has been notified and you shouldn’t have problems going forward.
The only buying restriction is on purchases over $10,000 per day. You qualify for larger quantities if you’ve made at least five purchases before, though the rule may vary by location. These buyers also fill out a much shorter form, with sensitive information being stored on a computer rather than paper. Regardless, now that the promotion has been extended, everyone can breathe easy and buy in smaller quantities if necessary.
As I explained, this promotion isn’t the cheapest way to buy Visa gift cards, but it is the fastest. There’s no need to wait two weeks for your order to arrive and worry about having a big balance when your credit card statement closes. Liquidation is also faster, since you can buy $4,000 worth of money orders per transaction as opposed to $2,000. All you have to worry about is which credit card to use. I’m sticking to cash back for the most part.
Are you going to take advantage of Simon Mall’s $1,000 Visa gift card promo through August 31?
