FYI Gamestop does indeed carry the $15 cards in store, I just went and bought two in two separate transactions.  Working on submitting the receipts now so will update when I hear back (hopefully within 4 days like it says).

 
I bought a $15 card from BBY and will not be getting more until my first one goes through. Need to make sure using BBY credit doesn't invalidate the promo.

 
Yeah, I had meant to grab only one but wasn't thinking and had more GS credit than I expected.
Yeah, I also had more BBY credit than I thought. Took some restraint right away. If I max out this promotion, I might have to go all digital for a while just to use all the Xbox credit I'll have including the X1 announce credit I still have.

 
The instructions state that you don't need to show the method of payment so I just didnt include it... I simply just included all relevant information in my pics I submitted. I had two separate transactions for $15 Xbox cards. I'll report back if this really goes through...

 
OK thanks. Was wondering where the "list" of participating retailers was. Guess you have to start the process to see them.
Yeah, you just do the little register and it takes you to submitting your photo and then lets you choose BBY, Walmart, GS, other retailers.

 
I just won a copy of 'Splosion Man this morning from the scratch off part of the promotion and already got the code.  I still haven't seen the $5 bonus for each of the 6 receipts I submitted, but the fact that I got something gives me hope that we'll start seeing the bonuses soon.

I won $2 credit the other day when I redeemed mine. No code for that yet either.
 
This actually is worth it to me since due to a recent onslaught of digital releases I want I'll need to get over 15 bucks worth of credit anyway so the extra 5 will be nice. Is the Wolf Among Us any good? I've already been wanting to get the first one to try it out before considering the season pass and with this extra 5 I'll definitely use it on that most likely. It seems the reviews are good.

After I won I received a "Claim your prize" email indicating I had to fill out a form to claim the code. After I filled out the form, I received the code in a second e-mail about 30 minutes later.

 
So no one has received their rebates yet? I submitted my rebate using the online site Monday. I would expect that today would be the latest I'd receive my rebate. I would also have thought that someone would have received their rebate and reported here by now.

I did mine on Sunday I believe and haven't heard anything yet.

 
Haven't gotten anything on it yet either.  Was hoping it would come through and I would try getting one from Kmart with the bonus stuff they're doing.

 
the bad part is it says "while supplies last" so if no one get one back Microsoft could use the excuse we ran out and they would be completely covered

 
Yeah, it would be hard to believe that they would run through all of their inventory in the first two days. Inventory that was forecasted to last until May 31st.

 
They would do well to hurry this up. I plan on maxing out on the deal but won't take the rest of the plunge until I get a confirmed success.

 
On the official rules page it says ePrize is one of three companies that is running this promotion. ePrize are the same people who run Xbox Live Rewards. After a month ends it takes them about ten days to put any credit you earned from MyAchievements into your pending credit. I didn't think we'd get this rebate within four days. I saw it as four days being the earliest.

And yeah, I really don't see the available rebates lasting until the end of May. They're probably already regretting they didn't make the minimum purchase be $25.

 
I bought the max 10 cards and have been doing one daily so I can do the scratch off and maybe win something else. I won't be completely bummed if they flake out on the rebate, I got a bunch of best buy reward points and shopkick points.

I don't think you need to do one daily to do the scratch off. I did it this morning without a picture upload.

This isn't a bad promo and the manager at my gamestop was cool doing the sales transactions individually. Good luck to everyone.

Yep, you get to do one scratcher per day regardless and then get one entry into the drawing for each receipt.

thanks for that reminder I didn't know you could do the scratch off without buying until I seen this comment and I registered just now and did the scratch off for the first time and ending up getting a 12-month digital xbox live card not to bad a promo after all

Sounds like you owe me a month or two of that. ;)

 
Thanks for letting me know the scratch off is daily without upload, I'll upload the rest of the receipts tonight:) I was reading the asterisks about the grand prizes, the free xbox live for 50 years is paid out in 50x1 year codes. I would prolly sell one off every now and then, who knows if/when the year sub price will increase, but almost positive I won't need it when I'm in my 70's.

The "home theater" grand prize is cool, 3x$1000 Visa cards and an Xone. I like my home theater setup now so I wouldn't be buying a new setup.
