Publix coupon gives $10 Publix gift card with the purchase of a $50 American Express gift card.
The gift card may have an activation fee. Worse case the activation fee is $4.95. Therefore you end up with about $5 more than you are spending.
Thats a 10% increase in your money – I can get that from any bank right now, so I would say this is a FRUGAL DEAL. Now, doing just one card may not be worth it.
But think of this. Do it once…. Then use the Publix gift card they gave you to buy the next Amex card… get the idea! –just Keep Rinsing and Repeating — Now, this may take a little Social Engineering (if you read The Frugal Factor you know what I mean) and/or a few visits to several publix stores.
