You probably wonder how I did it? Well, Macy’s is one of my favorite stores to shop at and one of the cheapest stores around if you know how to double and triple promotions AND shop on specific days (cheaper than Walmart, Ross, Marshall's, you name it!)… so here is where my $500 gift card comes from:
Like many other stores, Macy’s offered 10% return on all qualified purchases made starting some time in September till December 31st (Christmas shopping season). So this gift card is actually like a rebate, except I didn't have to fill out any lengthy paperwork to get my money back (if you know what I mean) - Macy's kept track of all my purchases and then automatically issued the gift card. Not only was I buying stuff for 80-90% off there the whole time, but I am also getting the extra 10% of my purchases back. So with Macy’s, I get stuff almost for free. There is a catch though – because I love Macy’s so much, I have their store credit card, which only works at Macy’s and nowhere else, and as their card holder, I constantly get coupons and special promotions before anybody else (before the people who don’t have the card). I make sure I pay off the full balance on my card each month and never had to pay a penny in interest. I love this promotion around Christmas time because it's a lot better than similar promotions from other retailers.
