Staples is currently selling no-fee virtual Visa gift cards, which can be used online right away and are especially useful for paying insurance, utilities, and similar bills. If you have a card that earns bonus rewards at office supply stores, this could be worth buying—it’s basically 5x on all spend. For example, Chase Ink Cash earns 5x back
Chase Ink Cash still has a pretty good sign-up bonus right now, so using this to meet the minimum spend is a solid deal.
