A friend at work informed me tonight that Best Buy is giving people (presumably people who haven’t used their Reward Zone cards in a while) $15 or $20 certificates to use before Christmas.  I hadn’t used my card in a while, so I logged on to my account and I did indeed have a $20 certificate! Expires December 25th. Merry Christmas to me! What a great deal! I hope you’ll be able to share this so some other people can be pleasantly surprised.

Let us know if you discovered a gift certificate in your account as well. Also, keep in mind that this offer appears to only be valid for existing members and not members that sign up today.

(Thanks, Naomi!)

    I had gotten an email letting me know about my $20 certificate… I am getting my hubby an iPod touch for Christmas and I needed to get him a case so I got a really good one for about $5 after my $20 discount!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      There should be a cpn located in your rewards for a free case and earphones.

  3. whatabun

    I am BB rewards member and I didn’t get one.

    According to the 2nd rep I spoke with, you had to spend over $100 in one transaction after 11/7/2010 in order to qualify for the $20 gift certificate. Since I had made a purchase under $100 worth, I was awarded a $10 gift certificate, but only after I called twice. The first rep said that it was just random.

    I created an online account today after seeing this post. There wasn’t a certificate on mine, however, like a couple others who have posted, I called customer service (1–888–BEST BUY) with my account info and told them that I heard there were certificates and I didn’t see any on my account. They didn’t question it, and I received $10! I asked when it would expire and they told me March! So I don’t even have to rush to use it. Thanks everyone. Love this site!!! I did have to wait about 20 minutes on hold, but worth it!

      Can you post the numbers (instead of letters) for the CS?
      My Blackberry’s letters don’t match up to the correct numbers when the phone number has words or letters in them. Thanks!

    I also called since we did not have on on ours and the guy was so nice and gave us a $20 plus a phone we got back in sept was not on the account so he put the points on there for that as well!! Yay..thanks so much for posting! I just found this site a few days ago…I had been going to another one but this sight has so much more post and deals…I love it!!!

  7. Jason

    yes, got a $20 one a few days ago used it to buy Itunes

  8. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I waited on hold for over 20mins and got nothing. The lady said it was a marketing promotion for ppl who haven’t used their card since 2007.

    • Bev

      Not true. We use ours all the time and I still had one.

  9. Jackie

    Didn’t have one in my account so called Best Buy and they put $10.00 on my account. So excited! Worth the time! Thanks Collin!

  10. SUSAN

    Thanks for the heads-up. We had $10 waiting for us and my hubby’s co-worker had $20.

  11. Christina

    I am so happy I called LOL. At first she said we didn’t qualify then she told me she would give me 500 points for us to get the $10.00 cert. However I was having to hold while she was on the phone and talking to the kiddos about our trip to pump it up. I mentioned Groupon and she had no clue what that was so you knwo I just had to tell her 😉 She was so excited so I mentioned Hip2save.com and couponing and how I had started 3 months ago and that we were saving so much and how awesome you guys all are with helping etc. So she takes the info LOL then informs me happily I have 1,000 points now and a $20.00 cert and Merry Christmas and how excited she is to check this all out that it would help her family soooooo much. I was happy with the cert but even happier that I was able to pass the info along and be able to help her and her family:) So thank you Colin for having your wonderful site and for all that you do. I love being able to help my family and friends and that I can pass it to others as well.

    • celticmommie

      That’s awesome! LOL It’s good karma for you 🙂

  12. Amanda

    I got hung up on once immediately after holding for 20 minutes, didnt even talk to a live person. Then called back 2 different times and finally got a 10 dollar certificate. I got different stories both times, and dealt with a VERY rude lady. Sounds like they are not on the same page, they are telling everybody different stuff.

  13. Denise~Paper Ponderings

    Wow! I’m so glad you posted this…I had a $10 one that I can definitely use! Woo hoo!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

  14. Bev

    Not sure if you can use more then one but it prints more then once

  15. jill s

    I called, too. The rep said there was a glich in the system and some people did not recieve theirs… so she issued a $20 one to my account and since it takes 5 days to post, the expiration date will be later! Yay! Thanks for posting this… it’s worth a call from anyone that has a Rewards Zone card, for sure!

  16. Karissa

    Thanks for the head’s up, had a $10 certificate waiting!

  17. LYNDA

    woo hooo….. thought my hubby would only get one gift this year, but seen this post and now I can get him that game he was wanting that is 40.00…. thank you collin……

  18. Alea

    To everyone who was able to get good customer service reps – you are super lucky – I got an extremely unhelpful agent who wouldn’t do anything for me not even re-issue my worn out key tag!

    • Jen in FL

      If you go to the website, you can print your membership card. Hope this helps 🙂

  19. Kim

    Had $20 sitting in there….Thanks for the heads up, now I have to decide what to buy!

  20. Dorie

    had a $10 certificate waiting. Thanks because I never would have noticed it!

  21. richmelony

    I did not have one in my account so I called and the lady I spoke to would not give me one. She said it was for customers that have not shopped with them in awhile. So since I just bought a new tv last month and a camera 2 months before I did not qualify! I do not agree with their marketing one bit! I asked So you are telling me if I were not to shop with you I get rewarded? Yes that is what they are telling me. Oh well, I am glad so many of you got your rewards!

  22. Lori

    Thanks, I just got $10.00 exp. Jan 22, so no hurry for me, it was just sitting there waiting on us:-)

  23. Jennifer

  30. Sadina

    Does best buy sell other merchant gift cards? if they do, can you use the reward zone certificate?

  31. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I got a $10 certificate! Thanks for the post.

  32. Weslie

    We didn’t have one but I called and she said we should have qualified for a $10 based on our purchase history, but since it wasn’t there she would add 750 points to our account for a $15 certificate that will be good until April! 🙂 Thank you!!!

  33. Sara

    I had a $20 and I never would have known!! Thanks!!!

  34. nicole

    I got $10!

  38. beth wolfe

    thanks for the heads up, I didn’t have one in my account but I called and spoke to a very nice man and he gave me 500 points. thanks

  39. Carol

    got a $20! Yay!!!

  40. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I called and waited on hold for 20 minutes only to have them say I didn’t qualify. I asked why some people receive credit after they call and some don’t and he just said he didn’t know. 🙁

  41. irene

    I never would have know about the 20 dollar certificate just waiting for me in my account. The feedback section is where it’s at.. Thanks to all who contribute….

  42. Ashley

    Thanks! We just logged in and had $20 waiting for us.

  43. Kate

    It is quite possible I have not purchased anything since 2007 because I have been busy in nursing school. Logged into BB RZ and there was $20 waiting for me…thank goodness I looked here because I it is another email account I do not check regularly. My son wants an iPod Touch so I may give him the case to inspire him to save and pay for it himself (with Christmas money) or I will get some movies. LOVE THIS SITE…THANK YOU COLLIN!

  44. bleev

    Wow! Just checked and got a $20 certificate!! Awesome!! Will be heading to Best Buy after I post this!! I love your site Collin, thank you for saving me so much $$ this Christmas!!

  45. Betsy

    I had a $10 one waiting for me. Never would have thought to check. Thanks!

  46. TAMMY

    Thank you!! My mom has a reward card and I called her and told her to check her reward account and she got $20 Yeah!

  47. 417bmcatee

    Aw, sweet. I never would’ve looked, if it hadn’t been for this site. We had a $20 cert. I told my husband and I’m not sure what he bought. He was supposed to look for a game for my youngest for Christmas.

  48. Mary Alice

    Thanks, Collin! I hadn’t used my card in like forever. It has been so long, they had to change my last name to my married name. Anyway, the rep updated my account and while she said I didn’t qualify for the promo, she would give me $15 in points to use anyway and it would be there in 5 days and I would have 3 months to use it. Whoo hoo!!! Thanks again and Merry Christmas!!

  49. Joanne

    Thanks so much for posting. I would never have checked & there was a $10 certificate waiting for me. It expires on 12/25. I have used my card this year but no where close to $100 so not sure what info other people are hearing.

  50. carolina

    My husband and I both got the $20 certificates. I finally got the blender I was too cheap to buy myself with that and some cds for me, me, me!!!! Merry Christmas to me!!! Of course I did two different transactions to make sure I could use them.
