Update 9/25/23: I neglected to mention when originally publishing this post that this deal gives you $5 off your next purchase rather than an instant discount.
The Deal

- PetSmart
- Sephora
- Direct link to digital coupon.
Key Terms
- Expires October 21, 2023.
- Limit 1 per account.
- Must load digital coupon.
Tips & Ideas
This is a great deal as it’s valid on any denomination, so you can save an effective 33.3% on a $15 Uber gift card for example. The downside of this deal is that there’s a limit of one and it’s enforced through a digital coupon. Dollar General requires a unique phone number to verify new accounts and Google Voice numbers don’t work, so that limits its scalability.
Just tried the $15 Uber gc and it took 1 cent off not $5. Maybe it’s saying you get $5 off your next purchase (not the purchase with the gc)??
I did the same thing around 200pm est in Ohio for a 15 McDonald’s gift card, and it took .01 off.
Yes, same. It seems like it loads a $5 credit to your account for your next non-GC DG purchase making it not so worthwhile, even with CashApp stacking.
Oops, that’s my bad – it comes off your next purchase and I didn’t mention that in the post. I’ll get that fixed.
