I (yearly) seem to buy BOGO admits to the Silverball Pinball Museum (which is the coolest place in SoFla, btw) in Delray.
I never make it down there though. That’s the extra margin they’re counting on - and always receive.
I should say that in my previous post - gift cards too don’t get redeemed at a very high rate. Some expire, some don’t.
Up until about 3 years ago I scored very well with INCREDIBLY DISCOUNTED electronic gift cards. Like 50% or more discount. I would buy them online usually at eBay. One favorite was Golden Corral electronic gift cards. With the 50% discount I would go to Golden Corral at almost 4 O'Clock and pay for lunch which with the discount came to OOP of under $5. Of course a few minutes later I would be there for dinner so the cost for the Golden Corral dinners came to under $5.
That went great until late in 2019 when Golden Corral and most other places stopped accepting electronic gift cards and that gravy train sadly ended.
Charles Henrickson was with me in Tampa in 2019 when I used an electronic gift card to get a bunch of us dinner at a Golden Corral.
