One Week Only: $10 Off Visa Gift Cards & $50 Visa Gift Card Giveaway #MyMixxv17

Now it's the perfect time to stock up on Visa gift cards, my favorite kind of all. For one week only (4/16-4/22), buy $100 or more in Visa gift cards in one transaction and get $10 off your purchase instantly at Albertsons! Find an Albertsons store near you and go grab those great savings before it's too late.

Gift cards are such a safe and simple gift option that it's always a good idea to keep a few on hand. With so many important gifting occasions coming up in May and June, such as Mother's Day, Father's Day and graduations, it won't be hard to find a good use for all the gift cards that you've stocked up. Even if you don't entertain the idea of gifting a gift card, you can use the gift cards to purchase a more personalized and memorable gift, and the $10 savings is yours, regardless. By the way, gift cards can be used for so much more than gifting. For instance, you can use them to shop for a new spring wardrobe. Again, that's $10 saved on your new clothes if you take advantage of the gift card discount offer at Albertsons this week.

But wait, you can in fact save even more if you buy the gift cards with your favorite rewards credit card. You can earn rewards in the form of miles, cash back or points redeemable for merchandise, gift cards, and more. To the best of my knowledge, some rewards credit cards are offering 5% cash back on grocery shopping this quarter. So you could score an additional $5 savings on Visa gift cards, as they qualify for grocery if you get them at a grocery store like Albertsons. I wouldn't want to miss such an incredible opportunity to save, would you?

Why Visa gift cards are my favorite kind, you may ask? Because they work pretty much like cash and are widely accepted around the world! If you use a Visa gift card as a gift, it saves you the trouble of trying to figure out the recipient's favorite store, as she can redeem it anywhere she shops. If you keep the gift cards for your own everyday purchases, it saves you space in your wallet and is easier to carry than cash. It also helps you set a limit to how much you spend at a time, if you are not very good at sticking to a budget. You can use it both online and offline for a variety of purposes, shopping, dining, entertaining, paying bills, and many many more.

The list of why Visa gift cards make a sensible purchase can go on and on. But I'll stop here, so that you can head to the store now to take advantage of that limited time offer. Be sure to enter the awesome giveaway below before you go :)

The Giveaway

To sweeten the deal, Tatu Digital Media, the sponsor of this post, has generously offered to give one lucky reader of mine a $50 Visa gift card! The giveaway only runs for a week. Enter while you still can. More entry options will be added soon, so you may want to check back later to max your chances of winning. Good luck!

Save at the Pump with Safeway Rewards & $50 Gift Card Giveaway!

Now living in a state known for its high gas prices, it's more important than ever for our family to save at the pump. That's why we love Safeway's Reward Points Program, which helps us save at least 10 cents per gallon when we shop for groceries each week at Vons, a Safeway affiliate in our area.

How it works: simple and straightforward!

*Every $1 spent on groceries and pharmacy items = 1 point
*Every $1 spent on qualifying gift cards = 4 points

Every 100 points gives you 10 cents off per gallon for a single fill-up at a Chevron, Texaco or Safeway gas station.
*100 points = 10¢ per gallon Reward
*200 points = 20¢ per gallon Reward
*500 points = 50¢ per gallon Reward
*1000 points = $1 per gallon Reward

That's right. You get rewarded for buying things you need on an everyday basis and even when you get a prescription filled! The more you shop at Safeway, the more you save on gas purchases! To start saving, the only thing you need is to sign up for a Safeway Club card. It's totally free. And you don't have to take the card with you if you link your card to your phone number!

Extra, Extra!
What's better? You can quadruple your reward points when you buy gift cards at Safeway. Think gift cards are only for the holiday season? Think again! Gift cards can be used like cash at a department store, a restaurant or an online retailer that you frequent. For example, you will earn 200 points for a $50 gift card to Chili's. Enjoy your meals at Chili's and save 20 cents per gallon at the pump! Find a participating gas station here.

Safeway also runs periodic promotions that allow club members to earn extra reward points. During a promotion period, you can get 200 bonus points for spending just $50 in a single transaction. That's on top of the points you would normally earn from your purchases!

Safeway has partnered with Gift Card Mall to provide a large selection of gift cards from popular retailers. Safeway shoppers can check card balances, track spending, and consolidate gift cards with the free GoWallet service.

Savings Just 4 U!
You may save up to 20% more on sale prices by setting up a "Just 4 U" account. It grants you access to tons of digital manufacturer's as well as store coupons, which you can conveniently load to your club card. Yay for less coupon clipping and automatic savings! What I love most about Just 4 U is the feature called Personalized Deals. It offers exclusive extra savings for items I buy most often. Right now I'm being offered to receive 200 bonus reward point for spending just $20 on my next shopping trip, which means more than 10x points! Thank you so much for your generosity, Safeway!

Smartphone users can also take advantage of the Just 4 U app, which makes it super easy to browse weekly ads, add coupons and personalized deals to club card, create shopping lists and check gas reward points. Everything is neatly organized in one place and accessible at your fingertips.

Safeway is offering members so many ways to save. Why not stop by a store near you to start saving today? You may find it under a different name in your area, such as Vons, Tom Thumb, Randalls, Pavilions, Dominick’s, Carrs, Pak’n Save Foods and Genuardi’s.

The Giveaway

GoWallet has generously offered me a $50 Kohl's Gift Card and I'm giving it away to one of my lucky readers! The winner can use it to shop in store or online for anything from clothing to cookware. Happy shopping and saving!

Get What You Want at GYO Wish Store & Win 1 of 3 Beats by Dre Headphones ($300 Each!)

While we try to be a smart shopper by searching for the best deal for a product we need, have you ever imagined having things work the other way around, i.e. let sellers compete for your business by coming to you with the best offer for what you want? In fact, this mechanism has already been implemented at GiveYourOffer.com. Give Your Offer, or GYO is "a wish store where buyers can share their wishes and choose the best price offers for their wish, using a reverse bidding system and sellers can sell their products by fulfilling buyers' wishes from the largest online Wish Store."

Step 3: Share your wish. Let the world know about your wish item by sharing it with friends and family via Facebook, Twitter, email, instant messenger, forums and whatever medium you like.

Step 4:  Seal the deal. After going through the offers that vendors propose to you via GYO, you can accept the best one and receive the item you wish for once the transaction is complete.

What is extra cool about the GYO wish store is that you can actually earn cash by being an active user of the site. You earn points by completing such actions as creating an account, subscribing to GYO newsletter, following GYO on Facebook and Twitter, sharing your wish, closing a deal, and more.

Rewards start with just two codes and 10 codes are all that you need to earn the maximum $25 utility cash. You can also help make a positive impact by using the codes to make a donation to Habitat for Humanity.

Here’s how it works:

1. Once you are finished collecting your codes, visit www.nowthatspositivenergy.com/utilities to enter your codes.

2. You must enter your codes all at once. Limit two Utility Rewards or Donations per person/household/email address, up to a maximum of $25 each.
