I would like to trade a gift card (either Walmart or Tim Hortons) for 8 Astro Zero pins so I can get a free LUG bag. What would be a fair $ amount of the GC to trade for these pins?
I would love to hear your suggestions. Thanks.
I traded 8000 points for 8 pins last year so I would say $10 gc
Thanks Anna. Now that you mention it, I can also offer SDM points. Good idea.
How are people trading the PINs? At what value? For me, I'm thinking it probably wouldn't be worth trading them for a very low amount (someone said $10 GC?!?) since I'm buying them at $3 a tub and $5 for the multi-packs. I can't eat the yogurt (gelatin and sucralose...yuck!) so end up donating them to a food bank. Yet the stores near me have plenty of the yogurts with PINs in stock and I'd be happy to help someone for a fair trade. Hmm. Just throwing that out there..."fair value" I think works different for everyone. I would most likely just want my money back in trade value but then again, you are probably better off trading with someone who CAN eat the yogurt too so it works out as a deal for them but a free bag for you. I dunno! :shrug:
I just traded 8 pins for a $15 amazon GC.
I paid $16 for the yogurt and donated it to the foodbank. I already bought 8 for myself and there's no way the kids will eat more than that.
Honestly if I didn't feel for the trader (who initially PM'd me) I wouldn't have bought more. I wanted her to get the bag because she really wanted one.
But even for $15, I'm still out $1 plus gas and time. Not much so I don't mind but it wouldn't be worth it for me to buy the yogurt just to trade the pins at that rate.
I see people offering $10 and there's no way I'd trade. Simply because I'd be out money (again I give the yogurt to the foodbank).
I guess it just depends on each person - ie. What the person spends on the yogurt (some people have gotten amazing deals with PC plus and coupons etc) or what the bag is worth to someone.
HTH
Yep. This. I did not account for gas, plus time, going to the store, then coming home and cutting the peelies off and writing them all down, etc etc. I guess it all comes down to how badly does someone want this bag and if they're willing to "hire" you to go and get the PINs for them and compensate you fairly for it. But for $10 GC...no way. That ain't happening.
I guess it makes more sense for people that use the yogourt to trade. That way they are not only using the yogourt; but also receive something in return for the (pins) trade. I'm sorry, but I can't compensate you for yogourt that you choose not to eat. :shrug: All the coupons I trade have required my time, gas, etc.
Hi! Some trade canadian tire $. Did anyone traded? How do you go with regular coupons?
I would trade it as any other GC personally
How should I value the Green Giant FPC WUB Hamburger Helper coupon versus a $4 Chapman's coupon? The Green Giant would save me $2 but I'd have to spend $1 on the HH ( I'm going by sale prices here.) The Chapman's gets you a couple of free products.
Would you value it at 2x GG FPCs = 1x $4 Chapman's? 3x GG FPCs?
All opinions welcome. :)
I'm new to trading and don't trade often so don't know if this is a fair trade.
2X $4 Chapman for 2 FPC for berries (max value $3.50)? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
