Republic of Ireland peoples, Tesco have an offer of 15% off all Google Play and iTunes gift cards at the minute. The offer runs until the 21st of June. I have a notion to get some when I have a few bob to spare and then sit on them in the hopes of a Gil doughnut deal in the near future.
Every little helps ..(see what I did there?)
iTunes $50 gift card for $40 on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/50-iTunes-Gift-Card-for-40-US-Mail-Delivery-/261914536247?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cfb52a937
Kindlefolk, check this out! Until June 12, when you buy donuts, you get back 25% of the coins you spent, on top of the discounted prices on the coins you need to make the purchase!!
I just bought 360 donuts for a net cost of $17.75. What I did was to buy two sets of 1,000 coins @ $9.50 each, total $19. Then I bought the truckload of donuts (300) for $19.99. I got back a rebate of 500 coins, with which I bought a box of donuts (60), which then gave me a rebate of 125 coins (worth $1.25), which I’ll keep on account for future purchases. The net effect was that I bought donuts for close to what the per donut cost is for a boatload of donuts, but without having to spend $100 at a whack!
Readers in Oz – 15% discount on $30 and $50 iTunes gift cards from Australia Post online shop
I downloaded google play opinion awards and within a week already had enough for a golden scratch card…easy peasy! Hassle free donuts!!! Thank you for the great tip : D
…just wanted to add it works for UK users as I am one. When you purchase donuts it takes the money directly from your awards credit. Simples.
I’ve probably bought 15-20 scratchers at this point for just a few minutes of my time. Been using it for about a year.
So frustrated that it’s not available on my Kindle, iPad, or computer. I’m definitely a market research whore lol! 😉
Wanna hear the best deal ever? I’m in the middle of doing a market research thing where I answered a few questions in a survey at a market research place at the mall, got paid $20 and a bag of premium chocolates to take home and taste test (Oh no, forced to eat chocolate! 😉 ), and then there going to call me with a few more questions today, for which I’ll get paid another $25. Could there be a sweeter deal (literally or figuratively)?
*sigh* I meant “they’re going to call me,” not “there.” I really need to pay close attention to which word guess Swype chooses.
lol oh swype. Gets me every time, yet I still use it lol
Wait, what market reaserch thing? I gotta get in on this.
Khandie, Can you share the link?
I am sorry I did not see your post until now! I buy from “paypal digital gifts” on ebay when he has his 20% off itunes gift card sales!
$100 iTunes Code for $80 – Email delivery @ eBay
Add to Matthew’s comment- if you order the boatload of donuts (happy b-day too mee in a week) you’ll get 2500 coins free!!!!!!!!!!
AND! It keeps gettin’ better and better! If you then use those 2,500 coins to purchase a Truckload of donuts, they then award you *500 more* coins. But let’s not stop there. If you purchase a Tray of donuts with those coins they award you *250* more coins. So all in all, $80.00 got me 2,832 donuts (2,400 + 300 + 132)! AND I ave 263 coins left, which I will eventually use to purchase 2 Golden Scratch-R tickets (and still have 65 coins remaining).
Get those coins if you can Kindle Fire users, they are Hooking. Us. Up!
Heads up Kindle Fire users! Amazon is again offering 5,000 coins (or 900 donuts, basically) for $40 (normally $45) and 10,000 coins (or 2,400 donuts) for $80 (normally $90). Not sure how long the promotion will last but it’s usually only a day or two, so act fast!
Happy tapping. = )
install Google Opinion Rewards, and Google will reward you (ocassionally) with Play credit when you complete a survey, not sure how often surveys are posted, but somehing is better than nothing!!!
We’ve been doing it since 29 Jan 2015 and in 3.5 months have earned $15.83. We usually buy 60 doughnuts for $4.99 at a time. Pretty nice for free. The surveys are commonly less than 10 seconds in length.
I would recommend following this seller – http://www.ebay.com. As stated above re zwrxtrme’s post, $40 for a $50 iTunes card. Shipping was included but they sent it priority mail.
Not exactly a discount, but It’s my conclusion that the new mystery boxes on average will give you more doughnuts than they cost (assuming that you have all of the unique items already and that the mystery box gives doughnuts to the full value of the prize in place of a unique item you already have) I’ve not tested this theory yet…

$100 iTunes GC for $75 via eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/100-iTunes-Gift-Card-for-75-Mail-delivery/261818087389 Not sure how many of these are available.
I downloaded the game again through the amazon app and only got a $1 credit towards an mp3 download!
I recently downloaded Amazon app store and to my delight was awarded £15 credit towards any app or in-app purchases! You need to install Simpsons from the Amazon app first and then …yes you guessed it free donuts!! All for just five minutes of your time uninstalling original and reinstalling using Amazon. Sign in as normal with origin and go to purchase donuts. The credit doesn’t show when you spend but they send an email confirming amount spent = £0 Pretty Cool hey?
Great advice! We downloaded the Amazon App then deleted and reinstalled TSTO. Amazon gave us $20 US to use on apps and in-app purchases. Since we don’t need anything else, we bought 300 doughnuts and finally got the Duff Brewery. Pretty nice for free! Thanks for the great tip.
Still making up my mind on what to spend the donuts on ….had forgotten about the brewery! Maybe the cracker factory? Maybe Barney? Just so pleased to get some lol : )
Do I need to do anything within the Amazon app to get the credit? I deleted Tapped Out, installed the Appstore and reinstalled Tapped Out but haven’t had any mention of an offer….
We must have downloaded the Amazon App sometime recently onto our Android device. They credited us then with $20 which was to expire last night. We had never ordered anything from the Amazon App Store but installing TSTO from the Amazon App Store meant that buying doughnuts would use the credited money. We got the doughnuts with a couple of hours to spare. We would not have spent that money on anything else. We have no idea what prompted the credit when we originally downloaded the Amazon App. Afterward, we uninstalled the Amazon version of TSTO and went back to the Android version. The bought doughnuts were still there.
If its the first time you have installed amazon app store they should just send you an email about the credit …that’s what happened with me anyways. Maybe wait and see?
Found a eBay buy it now $40 itunes gift card for $30 with free shipping on http://www.giftcardgranny.com.
Target is offering 15% savings on iTunes cards with promo code ITUNES15 also 2% cash back via ebates.com.
For anyone in the UK: until April 1st you can get £3 of Google Play credit when you pay using PayPal (here: https://coupons.paypal.com/offers/mb147p5) So if you play on an Android/use Google Play on your device, you can get 60 donuts for £2.99, checkout using PayPal and the credit will be used. (Or you can chance getting a Golden Scratch-R- pretty sure it’s only redeemable against a single purchase)
I’ve just done this and had an email to confirm that ‘your offer covered your payment to Google’ i.e. it didn’t take any money from my PayPal!
Ok, to use amazon coins:
you need to download the game from amazon.com and install it, after installing it you can buy doughnuts and instead of having thr normal, google app/iTunes way of paying, it will ask for amazon coins.
it installs a 2nd version (amazon only perhaps ) version on your phone/tablet
I’ve been using it without any problems
Apparently if you download the Amazon app, and sign up to purchase on amazon, they will randomly email you either a $10 or $20 credit to purchase apps or make in app purchases
i cant verify how often or how to get it but I’ve received 2 emails with offers and used them both.
Ps- sorry if spelling and gramma is bad, on my phone
I recently came into some amazon coins but I can’t figure out how to use them for the app. Help!
Unfortunately…that’s one area we don’t know well. Any of our Amazon user friends have any insight?
Actually, it’s quite easy (assuming you have an Amazon device), because all in-game purchases are made via Amazon Coins. (So, for example, when I recently won an Amazon gift card, I had to first convert it to Amazon Coins to be able to purchase some donuts.) When you go to make the purchase, it will automatically use the Amazon Coins to complete the purchase.
If you don’t have an Amazon device, then I’m not sure how/if you can use them. You might want to give Amazon a call… I’ve generally had pretty good customer service experiences with them.
For any Aussies – Woolies is currently having 15% off iTunes cards.
Amazon Coins in packs of 5,000 and 10,000 are currently 20% off–just in time for Superhero splurges!

eBay Deal: 20% Off on iTunes Codes
$100 Card for $80; $50 Card for $40
1 day 19 hours 31 minutes left as of this posting
http://www.ebay.com/rpp/dailydealevents/Save-20-on-iTunes-Codes/?_trksid=p2050601.m1256&_trkparms=%26clkid%3D4310900125943573252
I shop on eBay with some frequency, but this listing makes me a bit nervous…115 negative ratings (plus another 20 or so of the neutral ratings that have negative comments) in just the past month alone. If you buy it, let me know how it turns out for you!
I see what you mean about the feedback rating, although there are 8,866 positive ratings for that same time period. The seller is PayPal Digital Gifts, so one would think they’d have a better record than 98.7%. Maybe it’s a good indicator that they don’t whitewash their FB.
I have purchased from this seller twice now and will continue to do so… I had an issue with my first purchase because I had an old e-mail address on file! The seller was extremely quick to respond and resend the code to the correct e-mail! As a matter of a fact I was just hoping he was having another sale! I need a card NOW! lol I knew I should have bought that last one! Grr…
