Best Buy

If you were given $490 in Best Buy Gift cards, what would you go buy???

DH and I were with Sprint, but switched to T-mobile last week (got *free* phones).  We had gone through Best Buy when we were with Sprint, and when we bought our phones, we had bought their buy-back plan for $29.99 for each phone.  Supposedly if you did that, when you sold you phones back, you got a lot more money than if you just sold your phones back without that plan.

Well that's the case - I sold both our phones back to Best Buy, and I walked out with a gift card for $490!!  We don't go shopping at Best Buy that much, plus we don't really need anything!  I'm guessing we'll end up saving these gift cards until we can think of something we need/want.

Re: Best Buy

  • That's awesome!

    DH would want to get a surround sound system. But I'd probably want to sell them and get the cash.

  • That's honestly not a bad idea to try and sell them!

  • Do you want a Kindle or need a new TV or something?  You could also go onto whatever that web site is where you swap gift cards so you get somewhere you actually want to shop.

  • Unfortunately I just bought a Kindle!  Ugh!  I bought it about 2 weeks ago, and don't have the receipt anymore.  Ugh!  That was a thought that had popped in our head, but I was like crap!  Don't have a receipt. Oo...I didn't know

  • I'd save them because you never know when you might need to make a big purchase. Case in point: Right now I need both a new stove (only one burner works, wtf) and a dishwasher.

    BUT ... the website cash swap thing is good, too. I had a friend who

  • Our last big Best Buy purchases for around $500 were a new flat screen TV and a new laptop. H's laptop completely crapped out one day.

    Is there anything you can think of that may need replacing soon?

    Have you looked online? They have a lot

  • H always gets Best Buy gift cards around Christmas. You can buy Amazon gift cards from Best Buy (they're in the kindle section), so he always does that with the cards if there's nothing he wants from BB.
