Black Friday 2019 is right around the corner and there are going to be some truly crazy sales this year. In fact, there are already a ton of great early Black Friday deals available right now on Amazon and elsewhere. But no matter how good a Black Friday deal is, and no matter how deep a discount is, there’s one offer that will always be better: Free money.
That’s right, BGR Deals readers, Amazon is giving away free money and you’re positively insane if you don’t accept it — as long as you’re eligible, that is. Here’s how this awesome promotion works: head to this page on the Amazon site and click the button to add the promotion to your account. Then buy $50 worth of Amazon gift cards and you’ll get a $15 credit on your account within a couple of days. That’s all there is to it! After you buy it, add the $50 gift card balance to your own account since you’ll obviously spend that money on Amazon during the Black Friday blowout anyway, and you’ll end up with $65. The one catch is that the promo is available only to people who have never purchased Amazon gift cards before on the Amazon website. We made that last part bold because you can still take advantage of the promotion if you’ve purchased physical Amazon gift cards in a store, just not if you bought them online from Amazon.
The coupon code 19GIFTCARD is also supposed to work for this offer, but people have had much better luck with the first method. Go to the promo page, click the button, and then buy at least $50 worth of virtual Amazon gift cards (or physical cards if you want to give them as gifts). Now before you even ask, if you don’t see a button on that page to add the promo to your account, it means you’re not eligible, most likely because you’ve already purchased gift cards from Amazon in the past.
