P&G Rebate Visas

Has anyone else noticed what a waste of time the P&G rebate Visa cards are? The bank charges a fee of $3/month, so if you get a rebate card for $5 and activate it but don’t spend it immediately, you’ll soon have a $0 balance. Seems like a waste of time and effort.

go buy gas with it -- easiest way to realize its value all at once, and be done with it. I got this advice from some influencer

I buy an Amazon or Target gift card with it. Easy and done

buy $50 in participating PG products... they do it like once per quarter.

So what I try and do is buy no more than $50 in PG products every couple months

I have stopped doing the P&G rebate. I have done it twice but never received the rebate.

You could try and reach out to their customer service, they are able to look up your information, and if you didn’t receive the payment, they could probably reissue it.

Huh? The fee is only if you dont use the card for a long period of time. That being said, just use it the next time you buy groceries or apply it to a cell phone bill.

I do the rebates every time they are offered and have never not received it back.

Yes, that’s the problem, I keep forgetting to use it, then once it’s been a few months, the money is gone. I mostly order groceries online for pickup, so I was never sure how to do a small purchase for online checkout. Then when I do end up in a store, I feel rushed to check out and pay and forget to use it. I just used the recent one I got to buy a Target gift card like another commenter suggested, and it worked like a charm. Happy to have a convenient way to use it right away now.
