Can I use the $5 monthly coupon on gift cards?

Yes you can in store but not online please note not all gift cards will apply to this rule.

I have a $XX.xx pre-owned reward certificate, and I want to use it on a B2G1 transaction. Should I?
It depends. If the three games are equal value, do not use your certificate. The value of the certificate would be applied to the free game, which would not benefit you. If one game is more expensive, you can use the certificate to make it the same value as the other two games ($5 reward certificate applied to transaction with two $10 games and one $15 game would make all three games $10).

Do you gain something from posting clickbaity YouTube videos on here? I don’t see the point.

On topic, the rare persona 5 Royal for Xbox series x sporadically comes back into stock, if you’re looking to take advantage of B2G1 and wanted that game
 
I was in store today and someone traded in street fighter 6 for the switch 2 right before me.

So I picked up :
Doom Dark Ages PS5
Phantasy star online GameCube (CIB)
Street fighter 6

However one thing I didn’t realize is street fighter 6 had all the year 1 and 2 fighters as a code - it was already redeemed by the previous owner so I took the L on that one. Only the vanilla street fighter 6 is on the cart…(even as a game key card…)
 
I was trying to put in a b2g1 free order but the sales tax wasn't calculating correctly. The b2g1 just ended and the amount of sales tax in my cart actually went down a few $ despite my cart total going up significantly. I wonder how many orders they lose simply to their site being buggy as hell.
 
Funny that free shipping over $55 is working correctly now that the b2g1 is done. Would have probably done one more order if it was working right, but overall did pretty good. Got my last 3 in today 2/3 came complete. Overall 9/12 came complete. Went into store yesterday and they hooked me up with two game cases/covers for the 2 I had been missing. So all in all got 11/12 complete. Might go in and see if I can get that one too but not going to stress about, will probably wait until I go in and get DK Bananza
