Target: 10% Off Target Gift Card Purchase (TODAY ONLY)
Target Shoppers! Today only, Target AND Target.com are offering 10% off Target Gift Cards (up to a $30 discount)! Please note that the cards you purchase will be activated on December 21st at 10AM CST and there is a limit of 1 transaction.
If you’re purchasing other items at Target too, remember that all you Target REDcard holders can save an extra 5% off on your entire purchase. BUT note that you cannot get an extra 5% off when purchasing these Target gift cards.
(Thanks, Sandy!)
I’m all over it!
Awesome!
I have a question, I bought a 300.00 e gift card and had them text it to my phone, it came through but the amount on it says $0.00. Does anyone know if it will give the right amount tomorrow since it activates tomorrow or does that seem wrong?
Awesome promotion! Question though- is there really a limit of 1 gift card? Thanks
Agreed, I’m wondering same thing.
Found this:
“Limit 1 transaction with a max discount of $30. Gift card redeemable starting 12/21/15 at 10am Central time. Discount does not apply to Target Visa, Target MasterCard, Target American Express or other retailer prepaid cards. Terms and conditions apply to gift cards.”
Exactly what LindaK said max discount is $30 so cards can’t exceed
$300
I think the total can’t go over $300, so you could buy 6 at $50, 1 at $300, etc.
You can buy as many gift cards as you want. The total just can’t be over $300. I ordered 3 $100 gift cards online.
I did it last year and bought a bunch of $5 $10 $25 etc and gave them as gifts throughout the year to teachers, bus drivers, birthdays gifts–it was great to have! The total can’t exceed $300 but you can get various amounts.
You can purchase more than one gift card, however you have to do so in one transaction, with a max discount of $30. Hope that helps!
Whoohoo thanks.
You are so welcome!
Limit is one transaction so I would assume you can buy more than one card in a transaction
Yes, with a max discount of $30.
Can you buy 1 $300 gift card and then use it to buy several smaller Target gift cards? Or other gift cards like iTunes?
Yes! Starting tomorrow you’ll be able to purchase other gift cards with the target gift cards. I plan to purchase Disney gift cards.
Disney gift cards are on my list for my niece and nephew. They’re going to Disney in March. Do you know If they have lower denominations in the store? I’m only seeing $50 and $100 options online.
If I remember correctly the lowest denomination for Disney gift card in my store was $50.
Thank you!
They do have $25 ones in store but I’ve heard they are hard to get at some stores.
The gcs that you buy today with the promotion won’t be redeemable until tomorrow (after the promo is over)
Just looked and you seem to be able to buy multiple gift cards. It just needs to be purchased in one transaction and the discount limit is $30.00.
Yes! Thanks for sharing!
It looks like the only gift cards available online are e-gift cards.
**NO REDcard discount. Limit one transaction not one gift card per household. Max amount that can receive a discount is $300 but you are able to buy more than that amount without a discount.
Yes, you are correct. Sorry for the confusion, just fixed the wording in the post.
Darn i bought my gift cards yesterday i forgot about the deal. Too bad lol could have said 6 dollars.
Re buy one using those gift cards 🙂
Go back with your receipt. Customer service will refund the difference.
Thank you will do!
Not sure if I did get my red card discount too…doesn’t look like it though.
Can’t get redcard discount on giftcards.
I get my Red card discount when I buy gift cards.
This is true for gift cards other than the Target ones.
For those who ordered online when will the gift cards arrive? By Christmas or after?
My online option was for egift cards only, no physical cards shipped. I received the egift cards immediately but they aren’t valid until tomorrow.
How does the egift card work, do you print it out and they scan that?
In order to use egift cards in store you have to download the target app and enter the cards into that and they can scan it from there. There are instructions when you get the email for the gift card but it’s a pain in the butt !
Thanks, it sounds like it is.
It is a pain with the eGift cards. Can I use my eGift card to buy a physical one in the store?
You don’t have to have the app, but you do need a smart phone (or tablet). When I get eGC’s from Swagbucks, I open the link on my phone then take a screen shot, which saves to my photo gallery. Or you can bookmark the gc page. All I have to do is open the gallery (or bookmark) and the cashier can scan the bar code. It’s such a pain to get the gc through the app now since they changed the format.
You can just print the egiftcard
Hate e gift cards. Maybe u can use e-
gift card online tomorrow to buy real gift card?
Has anyone done this in store? If so, is it active right away or do we wait until tomorrow for in store purchases to be active too?
I bought one this morning. Will not be active til tomorrow.
Can I use some target gift cards I have now to buy a target gift card on discount ?
Yes
If you have a previous gift card, you can use it (up to 4) to buy a new one for an additional 10% off 🙂
It looks like the minimum gc you can buy is $10. Has anyone tried buying several smaller ($5) gc’s with this deal?
Wait – so if I order on-line I only get an e-card? Last year I got gc mailed to me.
You can get them mailed to you but not sure how long it’ll take to get them.
I’m not seeing the mail option only email or text, but I remember last year they did mail them.
I did too but this year that and store pickup aren’t options
So you can use it at the store and get an extra 5% off your entire order if you use the Target card? Or just theportion that is being paid with your Target card, and no discount for the gift card portion.
Only the portion being paid with your REDcard gets the discount
That’s what I was thinking, too. If you buy it to use, you’ll be using the gc instead of the redcard (if you have one) on future purchases, so you wouldn’t be getting the redcard discount. Which amounts to, really, only an additional 5% savings instead of the 10%. However, I don’t think you get the redcard discount if you purchase gc, target or otherwise. So buying gc seems like the best way/value to use with this promotion.
Anyone else getting charged tax on the gift cards? I don’t think I’ve paid tax when purchasing in store. There’s nothing else in my cart.
Nevermind, it went away when I entered recipients name.
Oh good!
Seems like this is a better deal than the 5% off when u use red card, unless im missing something
Nope, it’s better, bc you’re saving an extra 5%! 🙂
It is because this is 10% 👍
I did a big shopping trip at Target yesterday, I wish I would have bought gift cards to pay with and then see if they’d adjust my gift card purchase receipt today!
Don’t forget to use ebates!!
no cashback on gift card purchase
Ebates says the 2% isn’t valid on target gift cards, but I tried it anyway! Thanks for the reminder.
Wondering since there is a stipulated activation date for these (December 21 at 10 a.m. CT, is there an expiration date (date it mst be used by)?
Did everyone’s e gift card arrive instantly? I’m still waiting so just wanted to check.
Mine arrived 21 mins later.
It says 4 hours at checkout. After 5 I would call.
Thank you! I have a Super Target near by with a Starbucks inside. Now I have $30 in free groceries or coffee!!!!
Perfect! You are so welcome!
I bought a $25.00 egift card using another giftcard. I didnt know it’s possible. Paid 22.50 for 25
Is there a limit to how many gift cards you can use to pay for a transaction in-store? I have 6 $50 gift cards and want to buy 3 $100 ones with the discount using the 6 cards.
You can use as many gift cards as you need to pay for your purchases in store 🙂
So if i buy in store, the 10% automatically comes off?
Does anyone know if you can pay your Target Red card monthly payment with gift cards?
Unfortunately no
Thank you! I bought $200 gc from eBay a few weeks ago for $185 (thanks to H2S’s post) and I used that with some of the other gift cards I have on hand and total came out to $9.xx oop! For a $300 card. Yay!
Wow! Super great deal!
Target has “The Martian” movie on dvd on pre-order for $19.99 …. Plus you get a $10 gift card…. Making it $9.xx after red card and gift card. Looks like it’ll ship 1-12-16
Sweet! Thanks for the heads up!
So…. I use my red card a lot because you always get free shipping. So if I’m using the gift cards online later next year am in losing the free shipping benefit? Or will I still get free shipping since I have my redcard on file, even though I’m using gift cards? Anyone know?
You will get free shipping for having red card in file.
Has anybody else had an issue that it will only let you by $300 worth online. I bought one and was going to by a second one for a family member (different transaction) and it won’t take the discount
It says there’s a limit of $30 discount per household.
Can u use red card for additional 5% off
It will not discount the purchase of a Target Gift Card.
Has anyone bought one online and then gone in to buy in store? Just wondering if they track it somehow so you can only do it once.
I did. Hoping it doesn’t get cancelled…
Looking for walmart and target e-gift cards. Have amazon code ranging from $5-$15. Looking for even exchanges. Make me an offer.
Sorry wrong comment section!
My store is also giving away a free small Icee this week for redcard holders!! What a nice surprise when I went to grab one on my way in!!
Sweet! 😀
