Target Red Card Question

[4luv2cdisney]

Does the 5% only apply to what is actually charged to the card or to your entire purchase? So, if you are paying in part with a Target gift card(s) does the 5% come off only the amount charged to the red card or the whole purchase?

Thanks!

5% is taken off after coupons and redeemed gift cards.

That is definitely what happens in the store, but other DIS-ers have reported that when buying Disney giftcards online at Target.com, they get the whole 5% off, then enter a Target giftcard as partial payment and the discount stays the same. I haven't personally tried it yet.

This is exactly how it worked for me when I purchased a Disney GC online 8/25/13.
I used a $25 Target GC and paid a total OOP cost of $22.50 for a $50 Disney GC.

I was also able to order a Disney gift card online and used Target gift cards to pay for it. However, mine worked a little differently.

I used my points from my credit card to redeem 2 $25 Target egift cards. I then put a $50 Disney gift card in my cart. The system automatically adds the $1.95 for shipping to the total of the gift card, so I used my 2 $25 egift cards and then entered my red card for the remainder. Going this route brought my total for the gift card down to $47.50 and all of it was charged to my egift cards! So, I essentially didn't pay anything for the Disney gift card because I used my points to "purchase" the egift cards. We only use the credit card for necessities, so it was money that was going to be spent anyway.

Someone on another thread said that her Disney gift cards from Target.com weren't activated when she received them Has anyone else had this problem?

Well, I guess I'll answer my own question.Yes, it does happen. I just found out that 1 of the 40+ Disney gift cards I bought from Target.com has not been activated.
