Target REDcard Thanks

Target REDcard holders! Check out the email I received from reader, Teresa:

Not sure what I did to deserve this or if any other Hip2savers received one, but I got a nice surprise in the mail. Merry Christmas to me!!! 😀

If you’ve also received a gift card like this in the mail, please be sure to share in the comments! How neat that Target is sending these out.


Target Redcard Perks
If you’re not already a Target REDcard holder and are interested in becoming one, check out the benefits below….

REDcard Holders will save an extra 5% off all purchases every single time they shop at their local Target store or online at Target.com! And, you’ll always score FREE shipping on Target.com – no matter how small or big the purchase! This perks means you can save gas and time… and opt to shop in your pajamas! Love that! 🙂 There are also additional perks such as scoring 30 extra days for returns and exclusive deals just for cardholders.

Not a fan of credit cards? Keep in mind that you can get all these perks mentioned above by signing up for a Target Debit Card. This card works just like a check by drawing from your existing checking account AND there’s no annual fee!

(Thanks, Teresa!)

    That seems sketchy to me….

    • Karen

      Why do you think it’s ‘sketchy’?

      • Erin

        Probably because companies don’t make a habit of handing out money with no strings attached. Good luck to everyone and happy holidays!

  2. Ashley

    A friend of mine recieved a $50 one today!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Woo Hoo! That is awesome! 😀

  3. Vanessa

    Nice! Nothing in my mail box yet. Fingers crossed 🙂

  4. Julie

    My friend had one of these mailed after a debacle with a black Friday purchase from online went wrong and they could not make it right. Just random though? That’s crazy!

  5. Emily

    How awesome is that!!! I hope I get one 🙂 Love being a red card holder!

  6. Liz

    I received a 10% of my total purchase coupon in the mail (as a red card holder) cross my fingers for one of these!! 😂

  7. Rainy

    Whoa!!! I hope I get one of those!!!! How cool! <3 target!!

  8. Pdxsong

    Wow that’s awesome!

  9. momof6

    Looks legit. I got a random gift card before from target about a year ago. It was Fore $20.

  10. Jenn

    Wow, congrats to the ones who received these. That’s awesome!

  11. Kimberly

    I got mine on Friday! It was a very appreciated surprise!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Congratulations! That is awesome! 😀

  12. Sabrina

    I received a $50.00 egift card because they could not fulfill an order I placed on Black Friday. It was a nice surprise.

    • Fabi

      Mine was $500 😳
      Oops. Lol

      • Fabi

        And that was $500 bill
        Not gift card. 😝

  13. Lo

    I got a free icee with my red card today

  14. Holly

    I got a Target BILL for $96, lol! Not as cool 🙁

    • Ari

      Ha! I wish my bill was only $96!

  15. Jeanette

    That’s awesome. I ❤️ Target. I hope we all get something.

  16. Heather C

    I’m waiting in CA! I am a G😍😍D Target customer, so I’m hopeful

  17. Jen

    I got a $50 one on the mail today. Looks exactly like the one pictured. Nothing fishy about it, Target is just awesome!

    • Katie

      That’s great!! Did you spend thousands of dollars at Target on Black Friday or anything that you think would make them want to gift you this?

  18. Lisa

    Oh wow, I hope I get one! That would be a huge blessing! I wonder if it’s just credit card holders though…I only have a red debit.

    • Julie

      Good question!

    • Kimberly

      I only have the debit card not cc and I received one so hopefully you will too!

    • Michelle M

      I am a debit RED and got one via email!

  19. Janet

    I got a 5% off my total purchase but it was from the pharmacy rewards because they’re getting rid of it.

    • debbie

      me too, sad to see the target pharmacy go : (

      • Tia

        CVS is taking over if I remember correctly.

  20. Jenna

    I received a $5 one today! It was a nice surprise!

    • Chris

      I received $5 from my Minions order.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Awesome!

  21. Jenny

    I would have been jumping for joy to see this in my mailbox.

  22. LG

    What kind of envelope should I be looking for?! 😂 Does it look like a bill? 😁

    • Angela

      That’s what I was wondering. We get a lot of Mortgage refinance junk mail that gets tossed immediately if I don’t recognize it.

  23. SM

    Dang that’s awesome!! Hoping I get one. I’ve spent an embarrassing amount there in the past few months between Christmas and the new house 😬

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Good Luck!

  24. liamporter

    I got the same one pictured above! $50!!!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Woohoo! Congrats!

  25. Colleen

    I got the $5 one Friday or Saturday. While it was a nice surprise, $50 would have been great!
    Something to note though is that it said I received it because something I purchased qualified me for a $5 gift card and I’m pretty sure I didn’t purchase anything recently that would have generated it. Plus, whenever I have earned a GC (other than in store), I have opted to receive them electronically.
    Those who got only the $5 did it say it was a gift or that you earned it through a purchase?

    • Lexi

      I just got a $5 gc in the mail for pre-ordering the minions movie. It didn’t day what it was for, but I assumed it was the one for the movie since it came the day after I received the movie in the mail

  26. Michelle M

    It is legit! I received one last week and used it in store a few days ago! Just have to load it into your Target.com account for cashier to scan. Merry Christmas, Target!!

    • Julie

      I had no idea you could scan them from Target.com until you said this and I checked it out! Thanks!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Sweet! Thanks for sharing Michelle!

  27. Vivian

    Omg hope I get one , how cool is that?!!

  28. Melissa Rhodes

    Still have not gotten a gift I ordered on Black Friday. i am so calling them. Hope they make it right with me as well.

    • mochi

      Same! I had ordered a gift card to be mailed during Thanksgiving wknd & still have not received. I called CS today, waited 20 minutes! They told me postal office maybe having delays with the holiday & to keep waiting…. or cancel n do gc via email. I chose via email, bc delivery was est. to arrive 12/2!!! Good luck ;-/

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Oh bummer. Hoping you receive it soon Melissa!

  29. Jenn

    I hope I get one, especially if the bike ordered weeks ago isn’t here tomorrow. It’s been a mess trying to get it and they’ve changed the delivery date 3x. If it’s not here tomorrow I will swear off target for ruining Christmas.

    • mel

      I would never buy a bike online, esp during the holidays. Not Targets fault bc once it leaves the warehouse its in the hands of usps or ups for delivery. Hope you get it soon.

  30. Nl

    I wish!

  31. Kelli Butterfield

    I got one in the mail today!! I was so excited to see it was for $50!! I love Target ❤️❤️

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Yay! That’s wonderful Kelli! Happy shopping!

  32. K Tenny

    Just applied and got my Target card last week. That’s the only card I got lol.

  33. Bri

    I purchased a Nerf Rebelle a while back with $5 gc, the gc never came. I called, was on hold 30 minutes, but kept my cool, explained the sitch and they made it right by emailing me the card within the hour and tacking on another $10 for my troubles. Being kind to the overworked customer service reps made a difference!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Oh good! Thanks for sharing Bri!

  34. Kelley B.

    Did you all have the credit card or the debit card? I have the debit card but never seem to get anything with it but the 5% when shopping.

  35. Sammie

    I wish🤔

    • Jenny

      Right?!

  36. Kristina

    Yes I received one also, $50.00! I was shocked! I was thinking maybe they send them out if u spent a certain dollar amount in a year, which I use my card quite a bit.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      So glad you snagged one Kristina!

  37. Melissa

    Love Target! I got one yesterday too! I have hardly shopped there for Christmas gifts, mostly Amazon, but it was a wonderful gift to get in the mail. I have a Red debit card only.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      That’s great Melissa!

  38. Amy

    From their Facebook site: “Thanks for being a great Target REDCard guest! Here’s details of the offer: 10,000 guests will be randomly selected to receive a $50 GiftCard in the mail as a thank you for being a REDcard holder that has shopped in store or online from December 6 – 26, 2015. We hope you’re one of the lucky ones!”

    • Dayna

      Thanks for the info! I feel like I’m running to Target for something new after work each day! I think I’ve been to Target four times in last week and a half.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Oh cool! Thanks for sharing Amy!

  39. Emily

    I received an extra 5% off total order even after red card savings as a thanks for being in their pharmacy rewards

    • Ashley57

      Everyone in the pharmacy rewards got one because the program has ended.

  40. rachael

    I got one yesterday 🙂

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Woohoo!

  41. CJ

    Wow that’s awesome. Too bad I just updated my mailing address for my target redcard today. :-/ (I moved in August but didn’t think to change redcard address until seeing this.)

  42. Casey

    I hope I get one considering how much I spend there LOL

  43. Jennifer

    I got one on the 10th. I was starting to think I was the only one because I hadn’t heard anyone else talk about this. I was super excited! It certainly made my day!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      So happy to hear you received one Jennifer!

  44. Sarah

    That’s awesome! I love Target!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      😀

  45. jaime

    I didn’t receive this one, but got $10 from Barnes and noble which was nice!

  46. Evaa

    I did 1000 dollar shopping at Target Store & target online on black Friday, but nothing for me though…feels sad 🙁

  47. Maite

    Even if I do not receive one, I still love Target! Their customer service is amazing!!!! Shame on Kmart and Walmart, they should take some pointers from the best store on earth!!!! 😋😂😂

  48. lovethese

    Haven’t seen anything and never got my 20% off coupon after spending $75.00 either – they sent me the e-mail saying I would be getting the 20% off coupon but I never did get it. Sent them 3 messages about it and the last one they said ‘go into a store and prove you spent $75.00’ – wanted to use it online. I’m kinda done with Target.

  49. Maria

    I agree with the customer service at Target – amazing. I always leave happy and employees are always happy to help. I would love to receive a $50 gift card. I did get the 5% for the pharmacy rewards.

  50. Angie F.

    Does anyone know how to get the Joy Giver Cartwheel badge?

    • Anita

      I don’t have a Joy Giver Cartwheel badge. If you click the badge, it will tell you what you need to do.
