Update 11/11/23: It looks like Williams-Sonoma also processes online purchases of physical gift cards themselves, so that works too.
The Deal
- Spend $100 in one or more purchases at Williams-Sonoma & get $20 back with an Amex Offer.
Key Terms
- Expires December 31, 2023.
- Offer valid in-store at Williams Sonoma and online only at US website williams-sonoma.com.
- Valid at participating locations in the US.
- Not valid on purchases shipped outside of the US.
- Excludes e-gift and customized e-gift cards, group gift cards, and corporate gift cards.
- Valid only on purchases made in US dollars.
Tips & Ideas
eGift card purchases are excluded because payment for those is processed by CashStar. However, you can buy physical Williams-Sonoma gift cards online and in-store to lock in the 20% discount.
Williams-Sonoma gift cards are interchangeable with a number of other brands like West Elm and Pottery Barn.
Did not trigger for in-store purchase. Amex says gift cards are excluded for deal even though the terms would lead me to conclude in-store purchase wouldn’t be a problem.
eGift cards are excluded, but in-store purchases of gift cards aren’t excluded – those would presumably be processed the same as any other in-store purchase. How long ago did you make the purchase?

I’d follow up with Amex then about not getting the statement credit. I wouldn’t mention that you bought a gift card – just do an online chat and highlight that you spent $100 at Williams-Sonoma and haven’t received your statement credit.
