Woop and Wob loves gift cards (especially if they’re discounted)!

Hi everyone!

It’s Woop and Wob and today, we are going to share with you a brand new deal from raise.com!

For this weekend only (from June 26, 2020 to June 28, 2020, 11:59PM CST), if you spend at least $100+, Raise is going to give you a $10 off coupon to use on your next purchase of $100+.

Summer Day’s Sale

Of course, the way they phrase it makes it sound very confusing! To simplify the savings, if you spend a total of $200, you’ll save $10, which is effectively 5%. In addition, you can get 2 Amex points per dollar if you use the American Express Blue Business Plus credit card! On top of that, you can purchase these gift cards through Rakuten/Ebates to get an extra 1% back (or 1 Amex point per dollar)! We love to stack discounts!

The Calculations

In order to maximize the discount, you should purchase the discounted gift cards totaling as close to $100 as possible for each purchase. The more you spend over $100 in each purchase, the smaller the effective discount will be.

Note, we are not considering the additional savings you get from buying the discounted gift card. This is purely only the money that is spent on Raise.

The Best Case Scenario: Purchase #1: $100 Purchase #2: $100 - $10 = $90 Total Savings: $10 / $200 = 5% saved

A Not So Great Scenario: Purchase #1: $200 Purchase #2: $200 - $10 = $90 Total Savings: $10 / $400 = 2.5% saved

If you can manage the best case scenario and stack the additional returns from the credit card points and Rakuten/Ebates, you will save a a total of 11% off any gift card! This is on top of the already discounted gift cards! If you play your cards right, you can save 15% or even 20% from a store you would normally shop at! (including grubhub and Uber!)

Below is the breakdown.
