Ugh!! I am SO upset! I am doing my final preparations for my trip in 2 weeks and in the process of doing some of my redemptions. I wanted to "maximize" my options so I redeemed a bunch of my rewards (Receipt Hog, E-Rewards, etc) that had Uber OR Amazon options for AMAZON, with the intention of using them to buy Uber/Lyft gift cards as needed on our trip. We do not use Uber/Lyft at home so I did not want to "overbuy" and I figured that we would simply "convert" the Amazon to Uber/Lyft and then use the leftover Amazon when I get home.
Now, I am DEVASTATED to see that Amazon no longer allows Amazon gift cards to be used to purchase third-party gift cards! I know we will use AT LEAST $100 worth of Uber/Lyft while we are there (I cashed out $225 into Amazon!) and now I am stuck with Amazon money and I will still need to come up with the money we will need for our Uber trips.
It's not the end of the world....I have the funds...it's just not the same in my mind since that was "free" money and now I have to take the cash out of my bank account. I will still use the Amazon funds since we have our subscribe and save shipment that comes every month which is well over $100, but it's still a blow to my obsessive-compulsive mind.
....It will be OK...I'm going to WDW in 13 days!!
