I completely read it wrong and thought I had eight weeks from sign up to beat the campaign. Beat it on January 3rd. :(

thanks-- is this dead? is there a amex sync site to monitor these deals going forward

Get a one-time $25 statement credit by using your enrolled Card to spend a total of $100 or more online at Costco.com by 12/31/12

In case anyone was curious, the $50 off $100 at Best Buy promotion works on combined purchases that add up to $100. I bought eight of those 3-month XBL cards in eight separate transactions last week and finally got the credit today. Woot!

I was looking all over to see if multiple purchases count towards the total spent and I can finally confirm that they do!

Yes, just buy some Kindle cards.

I am assuming you are refrerring to the AMEX offer after you have synced the card. I was thinking of getting some gift cards or Xbox Live Gold cards. I couldn't find any purchase exclusions when I did some searching and was afraid it might have to be actual merchandise. I guess since the offer is from AMEX and not Best Buy, AMEX doesn't really care.

Has anyone run into problems just buying any kind of gift cards? It seems like an easy $50. A little too easy...

Gift cards worked just fine for me. I bought nothing but gift cards. But I did it very early in the deal, and right away after I got the email.

Thanks for the feedback.

Just a reminder to everyone: The American Express Spend $100 at Best Buy, Get $50 Back ends on 1/31/2013 so you just have a few more days to take advantage of it.

Paying taxes on $6000 prize is going to suck. Atleast you get a $500 amex gift card.

Who let Debbie downer into the room.

If I bought a drawing tablet for $99.99 would it count?

Also do they take returns for items without a receipt?

bump. I kind of need an answer soon.

$99.99 is not $100. Do not know if they count tax in the total, so why not add something $1.XX like a soda?

Trying to return w/o receipt takes A LOT of wrangling. Need manager approval, plus they copy your Driver's License, etc.
