It is not as great of a deal as the typical 10% off but getting 8% off current sale prices is for sure a pretty good deal anyway!

Charlie,
Wouldnt you loose your travel Ins coverage if you pay with gift card rather than your credit card? Like for delays?
Yes, you would. But, in all of my travel, I have never had a delay with Southwest that cost me more than I would save with something like this. Not saying it can’t/won’t happen! So it is something to think about. Another aspect of the insurance is that you can easily get your gift card refunded if you need to cancel for any reason without needing insurance.
