That's right, some retailers are giving away free money.
Most of us should be receiving our "Economic Stimulus Checks" soon, and if you haven't already spent that money you might look at this way of getting a bonus on top of your check.
Several retailers, and even grocery chains are offering bonus programs. Most of them require that you buy $300 to $1200 worth of gift cards, and they will add an additional $30 per $300 that you buy. So you get an extra 10% bang for your buck.
An extra 10% at the supermarket is a great deal, but unfortunately neither Price Chopper or Hannaford are offering the deal yet. I am hoping that they jump on the bandwagon with some of the other national chains so we can take advantage of the additional spending power.

Some of the others offering similar incentives include: Radio Shack, Sears, Kroger stores, Shop 'n Save, and Albertsons, among others. I just don't think we would have been spending that much at any of those stores ordinarily. Hopefully some stores where we would normally be spending will offer something similar.
