The swimsuit I bought there comes with a little compartment to hold my Target RedCard, its really neat!
On what though? All the good stuff excluded lol
Target is overpriced by 20% compared to Walmart.
Oh crap, it's the ghost of JTX coming back to haunt us.
RIP, JTX, wherever you are...hopefully not buried in a Costco casket!

What is the least overpriced big ticket item I can buy that makes it worthwhile to stack with rakuten + debit card + this discount? Some kind of electronics?
Been looking on how to use this perk for months with no luck. Finally gave in and bought a new Vibratex Magic Wand, a Hello Cake Buzzy Butt, and a box of Durex Tropical Flavors 12ct. Unfortunately, 'Plan B' does not work with the 20% discount - obviously, I tried.
F*** target!!!!
DP: for my teacher offer, the 20% off discount maxed out at $10 off even though nothing in the terms said so.
Oops, never mind -- it was a different issue. It looks like I had a $10 off coupon that was trumping the 20% off one even though the latter gave a bigger discount.
Looks like auto applied to my grocery delivery order. Shipt membership is free with ?any Visa infinite card although the link to get there only shows up with my US Bank altitude reserve portal but not in BofA Premium Rewards Elite portal for some reason (but the BofA card worked when it asks to enter first 8 digits of card number, so likely works with all Visa Infinite cards).
Last year I got my LG OLED during this - yay grad school! I see this year they excluded it lol
