    Supercharge Your Gift Card

    Hasbro is running a new promotion called "Supercharge Your Gift Card". It runs for a little over a month starting Dec. 25 and ending on Jan. 31. You spend $20 worth of select Hasbro toys, fill out an order form, and get select toys back depending on your preference you select. This is basically the same as the "Double You Action Giveaway" they had a while back. It is however, limited to 5 per person or household this time around.

    Transformers that are part of the giveaway:
    1.Transformers Combiners & Speed Star Mini Vehicle
    or
    2. Transformers Activator & Speed Star Mini Vehicle

    I kinda like this, given that if during the course of the promo I wanted something besides TFs I could get MLP or Ironman or GIJoes or something.

    So when they say Combiners, do they mean PCC 2 packs or the 5 Pack?

    Edit:

    It also includes Transformers Star Wars Crossovers, so a little more for TF fans to choose from

    I wonder if Hasbro is nitpicking with when you bought the toys. I bought some stuff of HTS when they had free shipping on any order, but that was on the 20th. I don't want to send them the receipt and find out too late that it was unacceptable...

    EDIT: Noticed you have to circle the date of purchase, so yeah they'll probably care.

    Well, just sent in my two forms w/receipts. Hopefully sending both in the same envelope was ok (can't remember if it was with last year's promotion or not). With any luck I should be getting a Star Wars Crossovers figure, a PCC 2-pack, and a Speed Stars mini vehicle.

    At first I thought they would probably send PCC 5 packs and a Street Star for the "combiners" and Street Star, but then I read that the total value for the pack will be between 10 and 17 dollars, and PCC 5 packs MSRP at $20, so I guess they will probably send a PCC 2 pack and a Streetstar.

    I have already sent some, and I'm sending more in, Heck, I figured why not try sending ebay and online purchases. They might honor them. Only costs me a stamp to try.

    What sort of non-Transformers things are people picking as alternates? I picked the NERF guns and darts as an alternate in my first order. Might pick some gi joe or Star Wars, or just get some thing I can get my nieces and nephews for Birthdays next.

    Well gijoe alpha vehicles are in the promotion. And their useing the pursuit of cobra logo, so I think its going to be pursuit of cobra alphas, so it could be only be the doom cycle, ghost hawk, awe striker, or ice cutter.

    Great vehicles with drivers for army building.
    So that's my primary choice on this promotion.

    I'm so far behind in GI Joe, I stopped following in the 90s. Got links to pictures of the vehicles in the promotion?

    So if I bought an MP Grimlock (@ $70), and send it that receipt, do I send in three forms for three items, like the last promo?

    I was wondering the same thing, anyone email them by chance? I say may as well send in 3 forms. Free toys are free toys, and if I don't get them, no big loss.

    I think it says right on the form something like, "if you qualify for more than one offer, please fill out another form."

    Not those exact words.

    Can receipts of smaller amounts be combined (example: 2 $14 purchases) or does it have to be $20 or more per receipt?

    I only ask since I have 6 receipts, one is $14, one is $21, one is $8, one is $16, one is $5, and one is $39.

    They keep saying receipt(s) on the form, and I don't know if they mean receipts of $20 and up, or a bunch of receipts totaling to $20 or more spent on Hasbro toys.

    So for the combined amount spent on Hasbro products, you would fill out however many forms you are eligible for ($20 or more per form).

    I would really like this clarified.

    The form says "save your original receipt(s)", which implied to me that more than one per $20 total was okay. I sent in two separate receipts that totaled over $20 in the same envelope with one form.

    Yes. I did this with the last promo(Ravage)and I just stapled all of my receipts together, having circled all the prices and put the grand total written on the top receipt. Then a form for every $25 spent. I would imagine this one would work the same way, thats how I will be doing it again with this one.
