Update 11/29/20: 20% deal now live. Valid on Apple, Happy Dining, Fandango, PetSmart, and TopGolf gift cards.
Update 11/27/20: The November 27th offer for 15% off Apple, Chili’s, Happy Moments, Fandango, and Saks Fifth Avenue gift cards is now live now. There’s still supposed to be a different 20% off select gift cards on November 30th, but that one might be targeted and we don’t know which gift cards will be eligible for the discount.
Update 11/25/20: Others are reporting getting an offer for 15% off on November 27th.
Update 11/23/20: Reader anthonyjh21 was told via chat that the following gift cards will be eligible for the 20% redemptions discount: Apple, Happy Dining, Fandango, PetSmart, TopGolf.
The Offer
- On November 30th, Citi will be offering a 20% discount when redeeming ThankYou points for select gift cards.
For example, you’ll be able to buy $125 in gift cards for 10,000 ThankYou points with this discount (1.25 cents-per-point) whereas typically you’d only get $100 in gift cards.
Citi ThankYou has lots of nice gift cards available to stores like Apple, Best Buy, Target and more; we’ll have to wait and see if this offer ends up being for all gift card brands or only the less valuable ones. You can see which gift cards are available for ThankYou redemptions here, but the deal is not yet showing.
The Fine Print
- Valid on November 30 between 12:00am ET and 11:59pm ET
Our Verdict
Travelwithgrant got an email about this offer; I haven’t seen anything yet myself. I guess this will be a public deal available for everyone, but maybe it’s a targeted thing, we’ll see. This could be a worthwhile offer for some people. If you have a DoubleCash card, you can convert those point to ThankYou points to take advantage of this offer.
Hat tip again to Travelwithgrant
