I’m sitting on a $30 in Rock Bottom gift card I got a deal on. Thankfully they still exist, but they closed their location in Cincinnati and aren’t located in a city I will be in anytime soon. Hopefully I can use it at some point. I’m actually on a mission to use up old gift cards. Not that I’m worried they will all go out of business, but I did hear that some lose value. Doesn’t seem like that’s happened, but some of these are easily 5+ years old so I figured I’d should just use them.

IMO these aren’t very good. I mean it’s edible, but I’d much rather have less good chocolate than more low calorie chocolate.

@briarycliffs My Cheesecake Factory offer not good enough to add?

Here’s how I fared:

$7.58 = $3.79 x 2 - 2x Velveeta cheese and shells
-$1 = $0.50 x 2 - Kroger coupon (was supposed to be limit 1, but they took a Kraft Deluxe M&C for the Velveeta)
-$0.75 - 1x Coupons.com paper coupon
-$2 - Swagbucks
-$2 = $1 x 2 - 2x Ibotta
-$1.50 - catalina coupon
-$0.75 - Alexa offers
= $0.42 MM

The Alexa offer might get rejected for using a coupon, but got all the others already. I tried to use 2 coupons.com coupons, but they only accepted 1 and Kroger definitely doesn’t double anymore (they haven’t in a very long time as far as I know). Unfortunately I might not be able to use the catalina coupon since we’re going out of town for thanksgiving and might not need to shop again and not sure it’s worth a special trip.

@briarycliffs said in Better than free TWO Baybel Plant Based Cheese Packs (six to a pouch) after 900 swagbucks and $2.50 in C/O51:

SB has been deactivating many accounts lately

Why?

$0.75 off with Amazon cash back (limit one I believe). Looks like most of these apply to Kraft Deluxe Mac and Cheese and Cracker Barrel Mac & Cheese if you’d rather have those. Most are separate, but looks like swagbucks are combined, so can’t double up on those. Not on sale at Kroger, but there is a $0.50 off coupon but it’s limit 1.

Bizarre that you have to buy the GC in store at a Walmart. $5 bonus eCard expires 3/31/23.

@mtnagel
Yes, I mentioned previously Brio did the “switch-a-roo”
(like UFB, Popular, CIT, Salem Five, and a few others)
I have:
BRIODIRECT MONEY MARKET Interest Rate 0.698 %
BRIODIRECT SAVINGS Interest Rate 2.127 %
BRIODIRECT SAVINGS PLUS Interest Rate 3.682 %

Shady. Makes me want to just pull all my money and close my account.

@jtownsucks46

Brio Direct High Yield Savings was 2.80% now 3.75%
CFG Bank MM was 3.55% now 3.70%

Brio was stuck at 2.80% for so long I moved most of my money out, mostly to CFG !

I moved most of my money out of Brio, but kept a few dollars in there and it still shows 2.127%. I’m guessing they are one of those crappy banks that create new accounts with higher rates so to get the new rate you have to open a new account?

I know people here don’t like them but sucks to see that Dollar savings direct removed the claim of the highest rate so they are still at 3.5%.
