10/23 TARGET- $25 GC with Nintendo 3DS purchase

[luvmy3]

I know people are starting (or finishing) their Holiday Shopping so I just wanted to give a head's up that Target will be giving away a $25 GC when you purchase a Nintendo 3DS this week. Also, if you have the Red Card you automatically get 5% off so its not a bad deal.

Thanks for this!! My DS is getting one for his early December birthday. I can use the gift card for a game!! I was waiting for SOME kind of deal.

Does anybody know if you can do this on-line?

okay, so do we jump on this or keep our fingers crossed for something better?

I'm wondering this, too. I have one on our list.....I wonder if BF or later sales will see anything better/different.

Thanks for the heads-up! I just purchased one online and received the $25 GC! Also, the promo code TGT75HFN worked for an extra $5 off! I was in Wal-Mart the other day and was going to purchase the 3DS for my DD, but they didn't have the color that she wanted. I'm glad I waited! Thanks OP!

DreamDelta, thanks for the heads up on the extra $5 off. Question tho - if we pick the game system up in store, when/where do we get the gift card? We don't shop at Target often (nearest one is an hour away) so we haven't gotten one of these free gift card deals before. TIA

Shipping is free with any purchase over $50 and Target will mail the gift card to you. You won't even have to leave the comfort of your own home! HTH!

If you do go into the store, they will give it to you at the check-out, which may be in the electronics department. When the cashier scans the item, the register computer will prompt him or her to give the gift card. You can't use it during the same transaction, but could buy other items before you leave the store.

And for those wondering about this deal, Nintendo just dropped the price on the 3DS in August, so I wouldn't expect the price to change before Christmas. Whether you will find a better deal is a tougher call. There are some major games launching before Christmas (like Mario Kart 7), so you might see some deals in connection with those events. Somehow, I doubt this is the last time you see an offer like this one.
