Dollar General Gift Card
Dollar General isn't just a neighborhood convenience store with low-priced everyday items; it's a go-to spot for finding discounted gift cards for some of your favorite restaurants and retailers. Here's what you need to know about saving on Dollar General gift cards for stores like Apple, Amazon, and Netflix, as well as prepaid cards for Visa and cell phone carriers.
Make sure you're signed up for Dollar General's rewards program.
If you live near one of its 17,000-plus locations, you'll want to make sure you're signed up for the Dollar General Rewards program before doing any shopping there. You can sign up in-person or online.
You don't have to be part of DG's rewards program to use Dollar General digital coupons on your gift card purchases, but it does make it easier to load them to your account (which connects to your phone number and email). Plus, you'll get special coupons and discounts sent to you.

The best time to buy gift cards at Dollar General is Black Friday.
Dollar General's Black Friday 2020 ad included 20% off when you bought a multipack of dining gift cards. That means you could get $100 worth of food from places like Applebee's, Chili's, and Domino's for just $80. Not bad.
You can use rebate apps like Ibotta on top of coupons and sale prices.
Ibotta, Checkout51, SavingStar and Fetch Rewards are all free rebate apps that help you save money on certain groceries, retail items, alcohol and more.
After purchasing the specified item for a rebate offer, snap a picture of your receipt in the app, and the app will give you cash back. Best part? You can use store and manufacturer coupons in addition to most rebate-app offers all on the same item. Check the fine print on offers carefully.
Once you've earned the minimum cash-out amount in whatever rebate app, like $20 for Ibotta, you transfer your earnings into a PayPal or Venmo account. Or, redeem earnings for a gift card with Fetch Rewards that has a $30 cash-out minimum.
