Since starting GC Galore a few years ago, I’ve wondered whether to create a tag that would be added to posts about gift card deals where the deal was valid on all third party gift cards.
Up until now I’d decided against it as there wasn’t a way to disseminate that so that all third party gift card brands were subsequently tagged in a post without manually adding them which isn’t a great option for a couple of reasons. For deals that were eligible for all gift card brands, I’d instead added tags for high value brands that resellers might be interested in like Best Buy, Apple, Home Depot, eBay, Nike, Amazon, etc.
I received an email from reader Matt yesterday asking if it would be possible to set up a tag for all third party gift cards. Another reason I’d not created a tag like that in the past is because I wasn’t even sure if it would be useful for readers, but the fact that he would find it helpful suggests that there are other readers out there who might like a quick and easy way to filter for deals that are valid on all gift card brands.
I’ve therefore created an ‘All 3rd Party Gift Cards‘ tag that I’ll be adding to all applicable posts going forward and which I’ve already added to recurring posts such as the Kroger 4x post that gets republished any time they run that deal.
If this is something that you’ll find helpful, you can set up a brand alert for that particular tag like you can for any brand on the site – here are instructions for how to do that. You can also find a link to it at the top of the ‘Find Discounted Gift Cards For…’ section that’s in the right sidebar on desktop and further down the page on mobile.
