Save Money on Gift Cards and Sell Ones You Don’t Need!

If your like me then you probably got a few gift cards you don’t need and probably a few that you wish you had got!  To me some gift cards end up costing me more than their worth!  Like the $25 DSW gift card I got is going to end up costing me probably $50 out of pocket (at least!)  And do I really need another pair of shoes?  Right now we actually would rather have a Home Depot gift card which we could use towards new flooring in our basement.  Or even restaurant gift cards for a nice break from the kitchen!

One site I use regularly (probably too regularly) is PlasticJungle.com (Buy, sell & trade gift cards.) I use them for both buying and selling gift cards.  Like I recently sold a $100 Foot Locker gift card for $68, which yes I lost money but I wasn’t going to use the gift card so something was better than nothing.  I really like Plastic Jungle though for buying gift cards for places we are definitely going to visit.  They have restaurants, gas stations, entertainment and just tons of great gift cards in general.  There is no fee to buy from them and free shipping!  I especially love buying from them for stores that don’t offer coupons because I feel like it is a great way to get some kind of saving.  Like I bought a Home Depot gift card for 7% off which is better than nothing!  Oh and since these are regular gift cards you can of course use them with coupons, they are not special certificates or anything, just basic gift cards that cost less then their value!

Here is a small snapshot of what they offer to Buy:

I am honestly hooked on them and have never had a problem!
