@barrytuneup said in Giant/Stop & Shop 5x Gas Points on all Gift Cards (excludes Visa/MC/AMEX/Giant-S&S) starts 11/10:

also have S&S gas Stations in CT and have the 20.00 offer. Thinking of buying a 100.00 Gulf GC for the 20.00 free groceries. The voucher is good thru 12/7 so keep checking their ads. Usually no good stuff there. family buys lots of canned tuna, maybe the .99 sale in the next 2 weeks. Gulf is cheaper then Shell around here and S&S gas is about 4 cents less then Gulf.

I don’t see Gulf CC in the paper ad here in CT.
Unlike Mistercheap’s posted ad that specifies “all” gift cards, the ad I posted does not specify all. so I am not sure the Gulf GC qualifies for the $20 cpn…

yes s&s branded gas stations

Agreed on the $20 OYNO option BUT we also have gas stations here so I guess YMMV.

@mistercheap the Stop and Shop offer here in CT is buy $100 of various GC (Excluding Visa MC Amex S&S) and get $20 off your next in store shopping purchase (cpn expires 12/7)

MC any good deals on eye exams?? From the pic of the ad, I can’t make out the cards that qualify
Edit: Damn, I just reread the post and you noted those in the ad! I really do need an eye exam!

Staples gift card?.. not as hot as getting a visa debit card but that option is nixed since MasterCards have been thrown into the mix…

Take a length of coaxial cable cut off one end connector and strip back about 9 inches of the plastic outer cover and insulation from one end to expose the central copper wire. Now connect the other end to the coax connector on back of tv. Done!
Depending on how close you are to a window (or strength of signal) make the coax cable long enough to reach the window.
There’s is always someone throwing away old coax where I live so this is a free solution.

I wish there was a category for “Electronics” i.e. TV deals or am I missing something??

SD has subcategories and the ability to sort/filter by categories. (can’t seem to post a screenshot?) Under their Deals, there is a subcategory HDTV

Try using tags (click the little shopping tag icon at the top of every page and entering your category of interest: e.g., https://phatwalletforums.com/tags/hdtv)

so now I know!

I hope that PW becomes everything FW was and even more than SD!
Apologize that all I can offer is suggestions and not much in the way of tech ability to share the workload.
I want PW to succeed even if just to show up those who let FW die on the vine.

yup. thanks.
howasabout adding user ratings (thumbs up/down) on the home/title pages or is that subject to abuse? I see there are such +/- ratings within the post but as i said earlier, at a glance it allowed me to spot deals rated more highly by the community instead of sorting through every deal posted.

I’m in DE, the one good thing about living here is no sales tax.

and Joe Biden!

thanks… at least one good thing about living in CT

I know you want to be something new and exciting BUT if it ain’t broke don’t fix it!
The old FW that spawned PW was elegant and organized in an easy to use format.
I may be just set in my ways but I find there is too much open space and too many unnecessary distractions with big honkin’ avatars on the home pages.
How about giving us back the ratings as I used that as a quick glance indicator of what deserved a closer look.
All that being said, many thanks for recreating a home for all of us pirate shoppers.

signage said as above but in my store rang up for 9.99 plus tax out the door. May be a law in CT regulating rebates?

@spooie said in Staples B&M 10/22-28 Buy $300+ in Visa OR Mastercard Prepaids, get $15 staples GC via EZ Rebate:

Off topic, but great to see everyone back here!

Cheers, where everyone knows your name!
ok everyone, beers on @sppoie!
also off topic but can’t PW be made to look a lil bit more sofitikated and less like a game of Candy Crush?

this … on top of the 2 $25 courtesy cpns??
damn, you drive a pretty hard bargain!
I lucked out with my larger than usual rewards checks (35, 35, 40) in that a friendly cashier kept adjusting off the next purchase what I had lost after the second use of a check
I buy ream/case paper to resell to people who never heard of a coupon!
how long can steeples survive the two of us?

good catch. I missed that important point.

Good find. Do you recall the activation fee on the $200 card?
Are the activation fees the same for visa and MC?

Same here. after I chatted with Steeples, they reversed the “trial” and credited me the lost Rewards which since June 15th amounted to $100. Mr Coons, you might try cancelling claiming useless and burdensome. You may be able to triple dip if they reverse it for you.

do shipping charges count towards the $10?

PSA for me and anyone else asleep at the wheel:
I Just realized that I hadn’t gotten rewards since mid June.
Come to find out that somehow I was “upgraded” to Business Plus status so even though my Rewards spend level is premium, I get to choose special pricing on 5 items of my choosing BUT NO REWARDS!
I don’t recall asking for this or agreeing to losing Rewards benefits. Just verified that there was no mention in the offer that I would lose the Premium 5% in agreeing to the new “upgrade”.
Just got it all straightened out with Steeples… only took half hour!

Again I am asking how people discover these deals other than deal sites. Do you get email notices or popups on ebay site? I try to hold onto my shopping list until these deals come around but am never sure of the timing…
