I think I had seen on here someone bought Netflix and Hulu gift cards to pay for their subscription? Our local grocery store has buy $50 in gift cards get 20 cents off per gallon. Can I purchase the gift cards and pay for my current subscription? I don't want to have to purchase a new subscription.

Yes! I get hulu and googleplay (YoutubeTV) gift cards at Sam's Club! Cheaper, AND rewards!

@dub thank you! I didn't know I could buy them at Sam's I will have to do that and get the rewards back in my credit card!

Yes that’s what we do. You just go to settings and enter the gift card number under billing

Just asking because I’ve never heard of this before. What would be the perk of doing this instead of just paying for it from your bank account?

@toname933 I would get a 20 cents a gallon on the first 20 gallons savings.

@ultravirus29360 oh gotcha. That makes sense to do it for that benefit.

@toname933 our grocery store is also giving $10 off $150 purchase. I'm going to see if I can buy the gift cards and stack the discounts.

@toname933 some people also do it with their Target Red card and if you purchase enough for a year you essentially get a month free with the 5% you get
