Awesome Target Deal on Sunday

[DisneyHardin]

I just saw on Totally Targets Facebook that this Sunday only, all Target Cards are going to be 10% off in store and online. That could add up to some great savings if you bought them and then flipped them into Disney Cards.

Does the 5% red card discount apply when you buy Target gift cards?

Red card discount does not apply but it will when you buy your Disney cards and the pay them off after with your GC. Great deal!

Hmmmmm....last year I bought the full $300 worth, then immediately turned them around on T-Mobile prepaid cards online to pay for DD15s cell phone service for the year, thereby getting the 10% discount + 5% redcard discount + 5% sale on the prepaid cards they just happened to run the same week. But I already worked a different set of deals last week to cover her service for 2016.

I'm sure I'll get the full $300 again, I'm just not sure what I'll use them towards - you really need to use them for online purchases to maximize the value because that's they only way to get the 5% redcard discount when using a giftcard...

Can you apply the GC for payment after making purchase and saving the 5% buying a Disney GC? Like the next day or after purchase posts to your account?

I think I missed it last year but got it the year before.

I got the full $300 as well.

I will do it again this year.

I don't think you can use a gift card to pay your Red card.

It says limit of $300 per household. If you buy in store, how do they know? Would I be able to go to another Target and buy another $300 in GCs?

following...as some of these threads are starting to catch my attention.... I keep reading the GIANT thread on Target,redcard,and gc's....and I am still confused. Am I correct- I would first need to buy a Target gc(discounted on sale) then later on, go online,and purchase the dis gc's using the target gc's? I am still a little fuzzy on how this saves money- is it the 5% if you use a redcard to pay for the dis gc? But if you use the redcard, then how to apply the target gc? (I have a debit redcard,and assume it gives the discount 5% also???)

I assume so. Especially if you pay with gift cards. Or one in store with gift card, one online.

You pay $270 for $300 in Target gift cards. Then I go in store and buy $300 in Disney gift cards with them.

Red card is default payment. It takes off 5%. Edit payment to gift card. 5% savings remains. Submit order.

Or if you have a Redcard and time to wait for the gift cards to be mailed, go online and buy your Disney gift cards. You will save an additional 5% if you have the Redcard set as your default payment...even if you pay with gift cards!

Um, they don't know. It's just a nice idea to try and keep things fair. You could purchase at numerous different stores and online as well. Many folks over on the 'big' Target/GC thread are planning to do this.

 

[hsmamato2]

which is the 'big' thread?

'Disney Gift Card Deals' Almost always near the top!

Am I understanding this correctly? I can go to Target on Sunday, buy Target Gift Cards (to give to teenaged nieces/nephews for Christmas) and get 10% off on the cost of purchasing the card? Are these the cards that I determine the face-value of, or are they pre-loaded? Not sure I'm explaining it correctly... Can I go in and say "I want $20 on each of these gift cards" or do I have to buy cards that already have denominations on them (i.e., $10 card, $25 card, etc). It wouldn't save me much, but cheaper is better at this time of the year!

I'm considering getting the Target Redcard Debit Card.... So I could buy $300 of Target gift cards for $270. Then when I get my Redcard, I could go online and pay for the Disney Gift Cards with my Target Gift Cards... Would it know I'm a redcard member and get 5% off of that or how would I also get the Redcard discount if I'm not using the Redcard to pay for the Disney Gift Cards?

They don't have much information on the website... any drawbacks of the Redcard Debit Card? No fees or minimum balance?

Actually you pay 270 in the store and walk out with 300 in Target Gift card. Go home purchase 300 in Disney gift cards but if you default to red card they send you 300 in giftcards yet only take 285 from your gift card balance. So in reality you paid 270 at the store of target, get 300 Disney and still have 15 left so you could argue you are paying 255 for 300 in gift cards....

Yes - you can determine the value on each card, and yes - you will pay 10% less than the amount you choose to put on the card.
