Quick Thoughts

This is a small win, but it’s an easy win that’s worth doing if you ever shop on Amazon. The $50 Amazon eGift card can be loaded to your own account or given as a gift to someone else, while the $5 promo credit will be added to the account you’re buying the gift card from.

Note that the $5 promo credit isn’t a regular Amazon gift card; instead it’s a credit that expires on August 25. If you’ll be buying anything on Prime Day – or at any time in the next 1.5 months – that expiry date won’t matter in the slightest. In the unlikely event that you think you won’t be buying anything from Amazon in that time, you can buy a third party gift card and apply the $5 promo credit against that purchase to ensure it doesn’t go to waste.

It’s also worth noting that this offer is due to expire on July 10, so don’t wait until Prime Day starts on the 11th to take advantage of this offer.
