I’m still trying to understand the Happy card process. You use the Happy card to purchase Disney GC at BBB (or other store like Lowe’s)?
Thanks for asking b/c i've been wondering the same as I've heard mixed stories on whether this can be done at places like Lowe's.
The process is to buy a Happy Card and then use that happy card in a physical Bed, Bath, & Beyond store (NOT Lowe's) to buy Disney or other gift cards. The only Happy cards this works with are the Happy Her, Happy Lady, Happy Moments, Happy Student, and Happy Bride since they are the only ones that actually send you a physical card AND include Bed, Bath & Beyond as one of the redemption options.
(None of the current happy cards include Lowe's as an option except for the ones that require online exchange or redemption but those can't be converted into 3rd party gift cards so that won't help you.)
If your Bed, Bath, & Beyond has a self checkout you can buy the gift cards at the self checkout. Otherwise, you must use as a cashier and every once in a while you will get a cashier that will not allow you to use the happy card as payment for gift cards. In the last year I used happy cards around 15 times at BBB to buy 3rd party gift cards and only once did I have a cashier not allow it.
