For All Your Traveling Needs

by Lara on May 11, 2012

Ah, summer! The calendar says it’s not quite here yet, but it feels like it already is. I’m just loving the sunshine we’ve been getting in San Francisco, yet it’s certainly making me want to take a few trips and explore what the rest of the country has to offer during this spectacular season. Traveling is a monetary investment and can be a blow to anyone’s budget. Luckily, discount gift cards from Cardpool can help you save money on your transportation and travel essentials.

Make sure to fuel up with our discount gas gift cards. Cardpool carries BP discount gift cards, which may be used not only on gas, but on food and drinks as well.

No matter where you go and how you reach your destination, you’ll definitely want to supplies at drugstores or department stores so use your Target discount gift cards. You’re bound to see one of those stores during your travels, and they’re THE spots you’ll need to hit to stock up on snacks and quick meals, toiletries, clothes, and other basics.

By taking advantage of discount gift cards from these merchants and others, you’ll be able to leave the stress of extra planning and budgeting behind and focus more on relaxation and having fun. Treat yourself with the fabulous discounts and get the bigger break you deserve!

Movies! Assemble!

by Lara on May 3, 2012

The time has come, superhero fans: The much-anticipated The Avengers is finally making its arrival to movie theaters this Friday, May 4th, and it’s sure to be explosive! I’m looking forward to seeing an all-star cast reprise their roles as Earth’s mightiest heroes, and seeing how all the previous contemporary films from the Marvel universe will come together in this exciting culmination. I’ve already purchased my ticket for the midnight screening and stocked up on some authentic Marvel apparel to get ready for the big night. Have you bought your ticket and gear yet? If not, there’s no need to go into Hulk mode: Cardpool is here to prepare you for the first summer blockbuster of the year with discounted gift cards on movie tickets, t-shirts, toys, and more!

Cardpool offers Fandango discounted gift cards, which is ideal for purchasing tickets in advance online and beating the long box office line for this already-popular title. You can also purchase AMC Theaters discount gift cards and other movie theater chains to buy your tickets as well as concessions. Select theaters will be hosting marathons of the previous Marvel films leading up to a midnight screening of The Avengers, so you may be able to score a bigger deal with our discount gift cards on these decently-priced marathons. You might want to stock up on these movie theater gift cards since The Avengers certainly won’t be the only hot film to come out this summer!

By purchasing discounted gift cards from Cardpool, you’ll be able to save big on all things Avengers and be a shopping superhero! Now assemble your team and enjoy the show!

Spring Fashion!

by Lara on April 24, 2012

As April is quickly dwindling away, I have realized that I need to shed my winter layers and start day-dreaming about what I am going to wear for the spring and summer seasons. With all the rain, sleet, and snow this past winter I (as I’m sure many, many others) am anxiously waiting to shed the parka and flannel for a pair of shorts and some sunscreen. But after browsing awhile on the internet, I am quickly realizing that my spring cleaning of my closet (and makeup drawer) may be an expensive endeavor.

Thankfully, Cardpool (my shopping crutch) has the discounts I need to help soften the blow to my bank account. I plan on making a weekend shop-a-thon using discount Macy’s gift cards and discount H&M gift cards. From all the discounts I can justify a splurge on those beautiful Tory Burch espadrilles at Bloomingdales and not feel guilty!

March Madness is Upon Us!

March 9, 2012

Let’s face it: you probably aren’t going to win the Mach Madness pool this year either. It’s going to be your co-worker’s girlfriend who picks teams based on their mascot’s cuteness rating, a completely unscientific number that she whimsically assigns, finishing her bracket before you’ve made your first pick. Her accuracy, however, is consistent and [...]
