This is a long shot, but does anyone know of any sites that allow you to use multiple credit cards to pay for a single order? I've got a bunch of those Visa gift cards I need to use up, but none of them have more than $5 or $6 left so they're not much use alone.

If there aren't any that will do that I'm open to any creative ideas you may have for using these things up.

if you go into any B&M store, you can tell them to charge $5 on this card and $10 on this next card, etc. I've done it before and I know it works.

I should have been more clear, these are the Simon giftaccounts, so there's no plastic card. That's why it's gotta be online or by phone.

Yet another reason that giftcards suck.
Give cash or give a real gift.
So what if you don't know what the recipient wants?
A gift is about expressing YOURSELF.
Give something you think is cool.
Maybe you'll open the mind of the recipient.

Couldn't you order on a site like Columbia House or Deep discoun that has a "bill me later" option? When you pay, justmake multiple payments and pay the amount left on each card.

movieguru's suggestion sounds like a viable one.

have you tried calling the CS number for simon? I know they make plastic gift cards too cause I've had them before. try calling them to see if they'll issue you a physical card. That can open up the possibilities of where you can shop too (in addition to using my first suggestion of how to use multiple cards)

Now that's not a bad idea. I hadn't thought of doing that. I'm going to have to look into that on Columbia House since I'm working on opening new accounts anyway.

They'll issue a physical card for each account, for a small fee of course, and that fee is more than some of these accounts even have left on them.

Do any of the sites (like Amazon) let you buy GC in odd denomitations? Most places that accept GC's also let you stack them.

If you pay your utilities (phone electric, gas, etc.) online you could make small patial payments as well.

i have the same problem. i have multiple visa simon giftcards that i want to use online. i know how much is on them but how do i buy something using multiple cards?

do i enter them as visa credit cards or gift cards? if credit cards, what do you use for the name on the card?

edit: was able to purchase an amazon GC in the exact amount i had left on one card but not on another because amazon requires a minimum of $5 per GC bought (and my other one only had a little more than $2 on it).
