I love gift cards. I love giving them and receiving them.

So if you plan on buying multiple gift cards for a ton
of people as a gift, it can get a little expensive.
However, if you are planning on doing that,
you can purchase gift cards at a discount
if you buy them in bulk.

Hey guys, it's Justine with The College Investor:
Investing & Personal Finance for Millennials.
And one of the tricks that I've found on saving money
with gift cards is buying them
through discount online retailers.
So discount gift cards work by people selling
unwanted gift cards to online retailers.
And a lot of times what these retailers are doing
is they are selling them at a discount.
So high demand gift cards are typically
going out of stock really quickly.
Whereas if you are getting gift cards
with the least amount of demand,
you're gonna see them at a really steep discount.
But oftentimes when you are using
these discount gift card sites,
most times you are going to receive those gift cards
in the form of an email or an electronic gift card.
So you're not actually going to see a physical gift card
in the mail, unless there is an option to do that otherwise.
So you're gonna have to get creative
with how you present these gift cards
if you are doing these as a gift.
So of course, we scoured the internet to figure out
exactly where you can buy these discount gift cards.
And I'm going to start with my favorite one that we found,
which is with raise.com.
Okay, so right off the bat, what I really like
about raise.com is if you have a Rakuten account,
you can also get 1% cash back on your purchase
through this website.
What I also like about how this is really organized
is you can search for gift cards by discount, by cash back,
or, like I was mentioning,
if you really wanted a physical card to give somebody,
you could actually sort that by physical,
physical card type,
and then it's going to show you exactly what gift cards
are available as a physical card.
And what I also love about this is you can see
exactly how much of a discount that you'd be receiving
through each of these retailers.
So Cracker Barrel has up to 15% off their gift cards.
So if you find something that you like,
you can just click on that retailer
and then see exactly what's available.
So you can see, you could get a $50 gift card
at the price of $42.50, which is 15% off,
or $25 gift card for $22.50, which is a great deal.
So you can easily organize your gift card search
through physical or electronic, or by cash back
or the percentage discount.
Another one you'll wanna wanna check out is cardcash.com
So they offer a 45-day guarantee on all of their cards.
So if something were to happen and you weren't able to use
that gift card for whatever reason,
they do offer a 45-day guarantee.
And also they have a Facebook group
where you can get access to be the first to know
what kind of gift cards are being offered at a discount.
So let's head over to their website and I'll show you
how it works.
Okay, so this is the CardCash homepage,
and you can quickly see there are big retailers
like Starbucks, Walgreens, Michael's
all listed right off the bat and you can see exactly
how much of a discount that you would be receiving.
It looks like the ones in orange are probably
going to give you the steepest discount.
So you can simply highlight a gift card
that you're looking for,
and they'll give you the option of figuring out
which gift cards you want to use.
And so they actually have quite a few 250 eGift cards
are available at $50 and you can get a 1% discount
if you were to bulk order Old Navy gift cards.
Your third option is to go through cardpool.com.
They also offer a guarantee, theirs is 60 days.
However, I did find on their website
that some of the retailers that they were listing
and advertising as that they have gift cards available,
