Anyone use the Subaru Bucks on SubaruParts? Are they the best place to get them using the Bucks or are there alternatives?

From what I understand, you must use the bucks $100 at a time. I originally got them for the oil changes at the dealer, but it looks like I might have better use for the bucks on accessories. Any one with a better idea?

I actually found that my local dealer gives me very competitive prices for accessories. They constantly run "15% off "promotions for accessories, and I don't have to deal with sending the subi bucks anywhere, insure them (more $$), call to make sure they arrived, and such and such. Shipping is also free and on things like B9 hitch or roof rails for my LGT shipping from the other coast would be through the roof. I might be paying somewhat more than I could on smaller things like puddle lights or tranny cooler, but I guess for now it evens out for me.

That said, I bought things from SubieGal, but I paid with CC. Perhaps Peaty can provide more details about using Subi bucks with them.

You can use any amount of scoobybucks. I've used them at two different places. I have some info here:

Thanks for the replies. Didnt know that the Bucks can be used in increments. Do they actually give you "change" if the service/accessory is less? It does say coupon only redeemable once.

The dealer near here says no change for the bucks, just use all $100. So if I want a service of $212, I cant use $300. Sure use $200 and pay $12 in cash. But the main reason I got the bucks was for the oil changes.

So you guys are getting your Subie bucks via the Subaru Credit Card?

Yep. I had one for years and my wife got one right after we purchased Tribeca for her. So we can pull in $1000 worth of Subaru bucks a year

I see what you mean sorry I thought you meant that you can only use them in 100 buck increments. There are lesser ones but you have to use the whole thing.
