Not sure if this is the right section, but it has something to do with deals.

I have been buying a lot of stuff with rebates, I hate rebates, because you have to do all of this paper work then they come on these stupid cards and I can never buy stuff that uses exactly the amount on the card, or I will forget about the and it expires.

Is there a way to transfer the money off of those cards and in to my normal account?
Would pay-pal of something be able to do this?
 
Can always combine them or use them as partial payment if there is not enough left on a single card for a purchase - you just need to tell the vendor how much to charge to each card and they will. (ie. if you have $4.56 left on one card and $20 on another and you purchase a $15 item you can have them charge the $4.56 to the one and the $10.44 to the other using up the one card and leaving the second with $9.56 left. )

You can transfer the money from one account to another, then send it back. You'll take a small fee though. I would recommend just making another account to do this.

Yeah, JFFan I have done that before, but it is just a pain to do it, and would prefer it to be all combined.

Thanks jaguarmatt I will have to try that.
 
I think you can use Amazon Payments for it as well. They generally charge a $1 hold to make sure its a legitimate balance but I think it only does it the first time so you can get all of the money off of there. Its also fee-free
