Oops. This quarter Discover is giving 5% back in cash rewards for shopping at Amazon or Target. I used it to buy $900 in gift cards over the December 2nd - 3rd weekend at Target. Target was running at 10% off special once a year. That was $45 in rewards. I also bought $400 in Airbnb gift cards from Target that gave a $40 gift card back as well. This also earned 5% for $20 more in rewards.
Then if you use the discover cash back rewards to buy resturant or other shopping gift cards you can add another 10-20% on top of the cash back value. So $40 or $45 for a $50 gift card to Dave and Busters, Panera, etc. I typically do this to stretch the cash back rewards.
I only use the discover card typically with the rotating 5% quarterly bonus rewards. Typically it pays back nicely but it maxes out at $75 a quarter or $1500 in spending every 3 months. If you don't have this check it out.
