An Amazon conundrum

Hello Pickers... I need your help. Are there any savvy Amazon users out there? Here's the deal... My job gives merit awards, that are amazon gift cards. Awesome right? Well when I add them to my Amazon account, I can often get upwards to $150 worth. Which is great. I ordered an AA a few weeks ago. Now, that set is $200 on Amazon, a good $40-50 over retail. Which is not so cool. There are a number of other sets I'm interested in, but don't want to have to pay over retail even if these are merit awards and not money coming out of my pocket. Does anyone know of a way to get those funds in my hand and not spend on amazon? All of my research yields that I must spend on Amazon. Since my last purchase, I've got $75 piled up to spend. So it will be a little while still until I can make another purchase. Am I just stuck paying over retail on Amazon? Best, AC
