Checked around, sorry if I missed these specific questions answered as I'm sure they have been at some point. Saw some of them touched on but not completely cleared up.

- It says that you need to use your cert for an amount equal to, or greater then the cert...does that mean you literally cannot buy something a dollar or two cheaper? Or that if you do buy something worth more you lose the rest of the cert value? (I ask because it also says "no change will be given for Reward Certificate redemption" which seems to contradict what it says before)

- If so, can I think just buy a snack/soda or something up from to push it up to $25?

- Just to be clear, I know it says you can use your cert with "most other promos", that includes the Gamer Zone coupons both online AND in the magazine?...

- Can I use multiple certs together? Like if I accidentally printed out two $10's instead of a $20? (don't see that in the rules at all)
 
Yeah. You can buy like a soda or whatever for the extra buck or two. If they sell it in the store, you can use it. Basically the reward zone bucks is essentially cash. I've used them with other coupons and promos in the past and everything's worked well. Lastly, you can use as many certificates together as you want. I just bought Reach for 20 bucks out of pocket because I stacked 2 20 dollar certificates together.

Hope that helps.
 
1. You literally have to use every single cent or else the system will not let you put it through. And I'm not sure what you mean by the second part of that first point. How do you lose out on the certificate if you're spending more? That just means you've spent more than the amount you have and it used every last amount of the certificates, so I think you're actually confusing yourself with the wording there.

2. Soda, candy, something on clearance, cheap cables, something like that. I normally just try and find something on clearance and then do that.

3. There are some restrictions of what RZ certificates can be used for. Can't use them on gift cards, and you can't use them to pay for install services either and so on, but it normally does stack when items go on sale. For example when FFXIII went on sale for $20, I used my $10 certificate and got the game for $10, and that you had to use a Gamer's club coupon, so they do stack. I don't have the @Gamers magazine, so I can't tell you too in-depth if they do stack or not, but I can't imagine that they don't.

4. Of course you can use multiple certificates together.

And one last thing, because these are certificates, if you have sales tax where you live, the benefit to using certificates is that it discounts the game the amount on the certificate, so if it was $35 for the item, and you had $30 in certificates, you only have to pay sales tax on the $5.
 
Everything Squarehard posted is correct.

The main thing you have to understand is that BB considers RZ certs to be a payment method like a gift card. They will stack with any promotions, and you can stack multiple items on it. The difference between a RZ cert and a GC is that you have to have a purchase amount before tax more than the RZ cert value.

Yes, there's no exclusion on RZ cert.
