    Default Membership Rewards Gift Cards?

    Hello-

    My company purchases a large volume of Home Depot gift cards all time from businesses and individuals as well. I know that through the membership rewards program you can select Home Depot gift cards at 1:1 point to dollar ratio (i.e. you get $0.01 = $1.00), which is twice as much as if you redeem for an Amex gift card for example.

    Has anyone considered redeeming their points for Home Depot gift cards, as they're one of the more popular of merchants that you can get gift cards for?

    I will buy the cards back from you for 86-88% of the value.

    Any businesses on this forum that use membership rewards for gift cards?

    I haven't thought about using my points for gift cards yet. over the summer just about the time houilhans pulled out of the partnership program I did think about that card. I have no thoughts about home depot.

    Default Gift Card options

    If you're interested in simply cashing in on your membership rewards points, then Home Depot gift cards give you the best option. You can generate an e-card within hours, and sell it for most all of its cash value.

    Let me know if you're interested.

    You might be the kind of guy who can fix things around a house, fix sinks etc. what do you think about Barnes and Nobles?

    how does their gift card redemption compare to Home Depot, Jcrew, Banana Republic? value wise.

    Barnes and Noble is going to come in less in terms of redemption value. You may get about 80% for them, whereas with Home Depot you can get up to 88%.

    From looking over all the different stores available (gift cards), the best option is Home Depot in terms of value to sell the card.
