Our Verdict
We posted about this a while back. At that time we weren’t sure if it would be available online too; the good news came in now that it’s available for both.
There’s a limit of just 1 per household for online orders, but you can do $300 in-store and another $300 online.
The system will block you from getting the discount on more than $300. It might be possible to get more than $300 by checking out in separate transactions in-store, but the cashiers are likely trained to limit this deal to one per person.
Don’t pay for the gift cards with your REDcard since you won’t get the 5% discount on Target gift cards. If you have a Visa/MC which offers a bonus at the grocery, it’s likely you’ll get those bonus points at Target too. Otherwise, use your regular go-to daily spending card.
Currently, there isn’t any easy gc-reselling opportunity with these gift cards, but many people will be able to use the Target gift cards organically. Instead of the standard 5% discount you get at Target with REDcard, you’ll get 10% + credit card points.
