The recommendation to buy an amazon giftcard with the equifax refund thing was a good one. I did that today.
There are ways to figure out these rebate things, and they can be kinda fun. With CVS I go to their app before I shop, and load as many as I might use onto my card. Sometimes there would be a deal that if you bought X you would get a rebate onto the card. So sometimes if i needed a few things I’d buy the first things that I’d loaded the coupons onto my app, and when I bought them, I’d get the instant rebate/credit (cvs bucks or whatever they call them) onto my card. So then I’d buy the rest of the stuff, using the rebate that I’d gotten for the items I just purchased!
