SEVERAL RETAILERS and restaurants are offering incentives to purchase their gift cards this year for holiday gifts — namely extra money!  Here is a snapshot of the ones I’ve seen.  Leave a comment if you know of other similar deals:

Pappas Restaurants — Receive a $10 bonus gift card for every $50 gift card purchased by 12/24/09.  Bonus cards valid through February 28, 2010.
Spaghetti Warehouse — Buy $25 gift card and receive $5 “next meal” bonus card.  Buy $50 gift card and receive a $15 “next meal” bonus card.  Buy $100 gift card and get a coupon for a free Family-Style Meal for Four.
Red Robin — Receive $5 in bonus bucks for every $25 gift card purchased.  Bucks valid January 1 to February 28, 2010.
CVS — Purchase a $25 gift card online and receive an extra $5 bonus gift card.  The bonus card is sent by e-mail and printed on your home printer.
Carrabba’s/Outback Steakhouse/Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse — Receive a $20 bonus gift card for every $100 gift card purchased by 12/31/09.  Bonus card valid through 2/10/10.
L.L. Bean — Spend $25 in the store or online (through 12/24/09) and get a $10 promotional gift card for your next order.  [This is not a gift card purchase, per se, but I thought it was worth mentioning.]
Thanks to Elizabeth and MyDallasMommy.com for sharing a few of these deals!

Walgreens has a $5 coupon too. It’s only good for today though. http://www.walgreens.com/topic/promotion/5off25.jsp
