Andrew Roberts 17 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I was wondering if any have ever used the Sams club Disney gift cards. I was thinking of buying 2 grand worth to pay at check in. You only save 6 bucks on $ 150.00 dollars worth of gift cards. But my thoughts is on an $1800.00 reservation it adds up for a free meal. I know this is being incredibly cheap but a buck is a buck Any thought or experience Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know this is being incredibly cheap but a buck is a buck Any thought or experience Thanks We use them all the time. We bought some for our upcoming Christmas trip to purchase our park tickets. $150 in gift cards cost $142.98 at SAMs club. So if you were to buy $1,800 in gift cards it would cost you $1,715.76 or a savings of $84.24. If you want to pay for your rezzie you'll have to have a TA do it for you, call Disney directly, pay for it once you get there, or go to disneygiftcard.com. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I forgot to mention. If you buy $2,000 in gift cards from SAMs it will save the our even more. A $500 gift card costs $474.98. so if you bought $2,000 in $500 gift cards you would save $100.08. Or just over 5%. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is that in store or on line for that large of amount? Currently my credit card is giving back %5 at sam's club and I don't think there was any stipulations about gift cards being exempt. I need to look into that because that would be a great savings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 Oh and Saturday the 17th Sam's is having a sale for %20 off some gift cards (of course they don't tell you which ones) on line and in store. I doubt we'd be so lucky for it to be Disney but we can hope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the 13 month AP special is still available Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caveat lector 181 Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I've used the sams thing for both Fort and Disney cruise payments. Why not save where you can Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 The ad does not say what cards will be available, but they will be available online with free shipping starting at 12:01 a.m. 12/17, or at Sam's at 07:00 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The ghiradelli cards are 20% off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WannaBeImagineer 98 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'm bumping this post with an update. Today at my Sam's in south Louisiana they had $500 gift cards in stock. It's the first time I've ever found them at our store. The price in store is $474.98, that's a pretty good savings. They are also back in stock online but they are listed at $479.98 and you have to add $0.99 for shipping and they have a limit of one per order. I've been watching gift cards because for I used them for the first time to pay off my resort reservation. I ended up buying the 3-packs of $50 cards and consolidating them on the giftcard website before making payments. It was a lot of work but saved me some money so I guess it's worth it. Just an FYI at my Sam's the 3-pack valued at $150 cost $144.98. It used to $142.98 but went up recently. Online they are listed at $142.98 but they charge the 99 cents shipping. I wish the $500 cards would have come back in stock sooner that would have saved me some more money and lots of time. WBI BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caveat lector 181 Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 I paid for a $5K cruise with $50 cards. Lots of work. I "guess" it was worth it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 Thanks for the update We use them every time we make a big Disney purchase. I.E. buying 3 AP it saves 5% and I purchase them with a CC that gives me 2% cash back. It adds up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
