Optimum 5000 pts for every $50 Apple gift card

There is limit of 5 cards per customer

That is kind of confusing. 5 cards of $50? or any?

Has anyone tried buying?

I think 5 cards per Customer

Or will it cap out at 5*$50 for only 25,000 points max?

I would think you get 250,000 since it is per $50

I purchased a $100 and got 10,000. I wanted to buy a $500 but was told I would have to pay debit or cash. So you would need to make sure your debit limit is $2,500 or take cash.

And the offer is only good for one transaction.

Gone after one use. I have made a claim for the second transaction as the terms did not seem to be one use only. Fingers crossed.
I will be using the offer from my other account and try to get $500… but I really want to put it on my credit card.

Does anyone know if tax will be charged on this GC? Last time I bought Netflix GC from SDM and was charged tax.

You shouldn't be getting charged tax because you're getting taxed when you use the card. You're just double dipping at that point.

You mean they refused to take credit card? That doesn’t make any sense.

I had the same issue. Does anyone know any CC friendly Pharamprix in the Montreal area?

Maxi Dorval… $500 gift card using credit card, no questions asked. For what it’s worth, it was a young cashier, she didn’t bat an eyelid at $500.

In my excitement (or was it the hot cashier) I forgot to use my Optimum card… DOH! But will make a claim.

How much does 5000 PCO points equate to in terms of dollars?

Bonus redemption events notwithstanding, $5 (but minimum redemption increment is $10).

Can we use apple gift cards online? If yes. Is it possible to use miltiple gift cards in one transaction?

There probably is some limit but can't you just redeem them all into your Apple account balance and then do it that way?

Yes, 8 in one transaction, but easy to get around it.

Not sure if "adding them to your Apple account balance" locks them into the app store side or not. There is another way to keep them in physical form: you can buy something with 8 physically, then return it and have them combine the refund into 1.

Everyone here buying huge increments of Apple gift cards are being judged by the cashiers as having fallen for one of those phone scams where you have to pay off a CRA debt with iTunes cards.

Thanks op! Actually worked, got 100k points.
Now….off to apple for back to school deals? Lol

So I can use old iTunes gift cards to buy stuff at the apple store now?

From my experience I have been charged tax whenever I purchase GC at my Shoppers in BC

Looks like you can use your balance for hardware

Yes, add them to your Apple ID balance first.
