Title: WTF can I do with this American Express gift card?
Post by: R-Tistic on December 27, 2007, 11:07:43 AM
My mom got me a $250 American Express gift card...and I haven't been able to do shit with it. I went to buy some turntables last night, and I was going to see if I could buy a money order with it...but that wasn't possible. Next, I go to buy some vinyls that end up being $100...and I pull it out, and realize that the damm store doesn't take American Express. Later on, I go online to buy a carrying case for my equipment on EBay as a buy it now....and they said the card will not work for that.

So now, I'm like damn....wtf can I do with it? Is there anything slick I could do, such as going to a certain store, buying something, and getting a refund? I don't want to risk not getting cash or even a refund back onto the card. I am trying to find someone who has some bills to pay, or has to pay for their car to get fixed, so that I can use the card, and they can give me cash. That's the only thing I can think of doing.

You can:
Buy clothes
DVDs
CDs
eat out
or basically buy anything at any place that takes american express, and it has to be a ligit place. Which means no ghetto hole in the wall places. Enjoy!

Pass it on down this way :cow:



Nah, what Beatz said though. That's weird that them places ain't taking Giftcards. The whole point of those is to use them anywhere.
