Does it say shipped? Mine shipped 12/28, have not received yet. Hoping it comes tomorrow

Simon Mall Gift Cards(2017)

A lady and guy buys 19 cards each everyday at my local Simon mall according to a cashier I spoke with. I may have to do the same soon.

The key is to have enough cl on cc that are worth doing it on and the ability to unload 20k per day. Had a local wm that allowed 20k mo per day but they stopped it a few weeks ago.

My orders from November never came. After calling a 3rd time, they replaced the cards and they came in the mail within a week.

I went ahead and put in another order on Christmas. Under status it says "Delivered on 12/28/2016". Obviously I know that isn't the case. I did a GCM order recently and it took 14 days to get to me. If I get to day 14 I'll give Simon/GCM a call.

"Delivered on" means shipped on. "Not yet delivered" is order in process. Delivery takes 5-7 days for from shipping date.

I had one that allowed unlimited MO per day but they also stopped.. real PITA! Why buy 19 cards when you max out with 20. My simon has about 5-8 hardcore regulars.

My SM enforces the $10K limit, so the 20th card has to be $421. I just get 19 to avoid keeping track of the oddball card. It was nice during fee free week getting the full 20.

you could do 20 cards @ $496.05. many variations are possible. a single oddball card isn't hard to track. to each their own. :-)

Good point. It also helps that I'm ten minutes from a SM, so I don't sweat missing a card.

Online limits?

For those of us too far from the Mall, any updates, or data points on online personal daily, monthly limits would be appreciated. I've followed and reviewed the thread. Thank you Happy for passing on you friends experience.
I currently do $1,500 orders ( non Simon ) with GCM with success. I'd like to hit Simon online a bit harder, just so I don't have to hover over the mailbox as frequently, but I don't want my GCM relationship terminated.

Any reports of Simon online orders, affecting GCM relationship?
