Good morning everyone, happy Labor Day! To celebrate the holiday, GiftCards.com is offer free USPS First Class Mail shipping on all orders placed now through 9/10/2015. To get started, click here to order your Visa Gift Cards. To save you some time, you can only order 3 $500 Visa Gift Cards per order and the total cost after discount comes to $504.95 per $500 Visa Gift Card.
If you purchase more than 3 Visa Gift Cards in the same order, you will not be able to get the free shipping discount. You can personalize the Visa Gift Cards with your full name.
If you purchase 3 Visa Gift Cards and select USPS First Class Mail shipping, your total will be $1,520.82. When you enter promo code LABOR15, you will remove the shipping cost, lowering the price to $1,514.85.
I placed 2 $1500 Visa Gift Card orders using the promo code with 2 different credit cards. Both orders look like they are going through fine. I’m not sure how many orders you can place with the promo code. You will also earn G-Money points on your purchase which can be used for future orders.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment below. Have a great Labor Day everyone!
I assume you can set a pin to these?
I assume so too. I believe I added a pin last time.
Yes, a PIN can be set on these and they can be loaded to Serve at Walmart – I just did some this week. I’ve also used the code SHIPHAPPY for free first class – I think that one is valid to the end of the year.
Ahh, cool, thanks for sharing that coupon code.
Just tried SHIPHAPPY and it isn’t currently working. Maybe it’ll be back after LABOR15?
Let’s hope so. Thanks for checking for us :)
Anyone know if Barclays reward boost pays out for these?
No idea, sorry Steve.
ANYone knows if Citi Double Cash Card can be used here? Or does that count as Cash Advance?
This is a purchase on all credit cards. Citi cards are fine. If you are worried, call Citi and have them lower your cash advance limit to $0 on your credit cards.
Thanks! And do you know what is the use of those G points?
Never mind. Found it
Glad you found it, pretty good deal :)
Thanks!!
first time trying to use giftcards.com.. I have added $500 visa gift card, I see the option as ” Standard Carrier (FREE)” shipping. no shipping costs added in the checkout..do i need to select any where usps first class shipping and apply the discount code?
I think 1 GC order uses free shipping. If you purchase more, then you need to pay for shipping (which should be discounted by the coupon).
These are Bancorp right? I’ve heard they are hit and miss loading at Kate. Any tips regarding that?
Bring your lucky rabbit foot with you? I’m not sure, I’m a Redbird guy so I don’t know what to tell you about Kate
Like I was telling you before, you might want to advise on the limits. It seemed like a lot of people got banned after a month for ordering too many cards on flyertalk…

Thanks for sharing Jayson. After reading the first page of comments, it looks like the 4th order in a month got canceled. Have you noticed a different pattern?
No, I have orders 4 orders for $6k since Friday, and haven’t noticed anything. I only noticed that the people who said they got banned ordered a little less then $10k, which was a couple of pages in. I have sold lots of GCs to giftcards.com and then later to saveya.com, so maybe they will give me some leeway. I’m not sure yet. I’ll try ramping up a little after they have more experience selling me cards…Hopefully amex portal cashback comes back with higher denominations since I could order $40k plus there a month of personal cards with no issue, even when they state only $10k every 14 days.
Excellent, thank you for sharing your experience. I am still waiting for GC.com to ship out the gift cards.
I’ve ordered and received 8k in 30 days starting with my first order. I’ve also ordered and received 7k in one calendar month. Someone on flyertalk reported: “was told that there is a 10k per month limit, based on first order not calendar month.” I’ve called myself but after a very long hold by CSR was told that there is no limit. Has anyone ordered and received great than 8k in a calendar month, in a 30 day period, especially in a 30 day period beginning with their ‘start date’ based on first order?
One more data point, the most I’ve ordered and received in any arbitrary 30 day period is 11.5k.
Thank you for sharing your data points. It looks like there is a soft limit, not a hard limit that GiftCards.com is imposing.
CORRECTION: the most I’ve ordered and received in any arbitrary 30 day period is 8.5k NOT 11.5k.
Gotcha, thank you for the update.
In for 2! Thanks Grant for the heads up about this deal.
The free shipping code that worked for me is: FREEUSPS915
Not sure about when the code expires but live as of 9/9.
Cool, thanks for the additional code. I will use that for future orders.
I’ll give it a week, and order a few more to meet plat min spend. Hopefully they don’t ban me!
Let me know how your subsequent orders go.
Can I use Amex gift card to buy this?
I don’t think so, but you can try.
FYI, this deal is dying, they upped the price to buy the card to $7 and there is no current free shipping code, so with a shipping code and the gmoney, I guess it is around $4/card, not as good as free cards…oh well. I already got $9k before they raised their prices.
You’re right, good catch Jayson. I bought some more VGCs last night and cashed in my G-Money points to offset a lot of the activation and shipping costs. Not sure how much I will continue to buy if the prices do not decrease and there is no free shipping code.
I’ve ordered $15k in 30 days, and no problems, but now I doubt there will ever be anymore free shipping as they got rid of the $1.99 shipping. Now it’s the $7.45 or so fee…
Cheap shipping and gone is now too? Not another negative change :(
