For Any of those WC rewards that are about to expire (or for all of them so you can get these shoes for free if you have enough), make a separate purchase with each reward for an item with a $20 price tag. You don't pay tax on the item when you pay for the entire cost with a WC reward. Return the item whenever you feel comfortable doing so, or even take it to the other FNL in town if you have more than one, and since you paid with a WC reward, which has an expiration date, the employee will give you store credit in the form of a $20 gift card, which has no expiration date. You can't stack WC rewards (unless a worker feels like making your day, but they definitely would never stack 9 of them to use on one purchase) but you can stack gift cards. You can also stack all those gift cards, and keep one WC reward and it can be used on the same purchase with all your gift cards.
Definitely never let those expire, and with this trick you never have to just go ahead and use it before you lose it when there isn't something you want by expiration date. I've done this countless times, and the first time I had so many at once I was able to use 7 of the gift cards and one reward for a tax free pair of free Retros.
Back to the X's, I thought this were a big GR from most of the rumors, but a regional sports store here that gets 40-60 of each GR and some of the limited Jordan's isn't receiving their stock until Tuesday and is only getting six total pairs. I know this doesn't dictate how many of these will be out there or anything, but I expected them to have as many as a fire red or grape type GR but they hardly got any. Looking forward to seeing some actual in store numbers on these.
FNL as a company has taken notice of this "trick" and sadly they are beginning to contemplate going the FTL route and make WC Rewards cards the coupon variety. Instead of a $20 rewards card they'll change it to $20 off with a $20 minimum purchase so you won't be able to stack them with coupons. Also the Winner's Circle account will be required in order to be issued a store credit in the form of a gift card so they can track return habits in regards to issuing gift cards. Get in with the "trick" while you can.
