Noobs. www.simon.com/giftcards
It's a Simon gift card. You can also try getting AmEx gift cards. Simon cards have a $5.95 processing fee when purchased online but only $1.50 when purchased at a Simon mall. When purchased online, they are attached to a name and address. When purchased at a mall, they are not attached to anything and so many not work with some offers--particularly the ones that verify the name and address on the card.

hunterr83 If I were to purchase one online, would I be able to start using it immediately? My debit card from my bank doesn't have an exp. date so I can't add it to PayPal, and my old debit card is on PayPal, so that's the confirmed address on my account, and it's causing some trouble with eBay auctions (most people only ship to confirmed addresses).

Simon cards are physical cards. They're not virtual, unfortunately. If purchsaed online, they will be mailed to your choice of either the recipient's address or the purchaser's address.

Thanks - Simon malls are probably very good when you purchase them at the mall. I sure will pick a couple when I go around there (20 miles). Other than that - any other way? Dont banks also give out gift cards (to members may be).. do you guys know of any banks that give you gift cards...

Hmmm. Even if banks gave out gift cards, I figure a Simon card would be no differerent than one you'd get from a bank. In fact, Simon cards are issued under Bank of America. They're pretty much gift cards from Bank of America distributed by Simon. At the bank, you'd have to wait in line. At the mall, practically no line. The $1.50 processing fee is hard to beat, also. I wouldn't be surprised if a bank charged more.

Totally agreed. Only that the bank is right below and mall is atleast 20 miles -)

THE SIMON cards work everywhere, even with AOL from what I remember thats what I have right now. for $1.50 you can beat the processing fee.

is the processing free a one time expense or everythime you buy something? Also what do people know about the 7-11 cards?

Basically a prepaid debit card. Just go to 7-11 and you can pick it up, they mail the actual card to u, the official one. Many many fee's though...pretty good thing to do offers etc though
