Just to answer some common questions I keep seeing:
- Each card needs to be purchased as a separate Target transaction in order to get the Target card bonus for each Apple card.
- You can use the same Target account, no need to make separate accounts (unless you are trying to circumvent the new limit that seems to have been added today).
- You will get an order confirmation email immediately.
- Apple cards will arrive via email several hours to a day later. The email has a link to Target's fulfillment site which will then take you to the actual gift card code. From there you can either manually copy/paste the code or simply click the link and it should open up the proper program on your computer or phone in order to load the card to your Apple account.
- You will receive another email at some point that informs you that the email with the Apple gift card was sent. This email doesn't have any value.
- Target bonus cards will arrive a day or so later via email. I've found that they generally arrive a few hours after you receive the email I mentioned in the previous point above. Sometimes the cards will already be loaded into your Target wallet in the Target app, but the majority of mine have not been preloaded. The email will contain a link that will load them into your Target account. The Target app also has a button that will allow you to combine all the cards into a single balance for easier use.
- The Apple gift cards will trigger the bonus offers on the Apple site (for instance, buy an Apple TV with the Apple gift cards you bought from Target and Apple will send you a $50 Apple gift card).
- You can use the Target gift cards to buy other items at Target that have a gift card bonus offer, but you can't use them to actually buy more gift cards. For instance, you can buy two packs of laundry detergent which has a $5 Target gift card bonus offer and you'll get the $5 bonus gift card, but you can't use the Target gift cards to buy more Apple gift cards.
- You can load up to $2000 in total balance to your Apple account. Additionally you are only allowed to load $2000 total per day. So even if you buy something using your Apple balance you'll still need to wait a day before you can load more gift cards into your balance.
- You can apply up to 8 gift card codes during checkout at Apple.
Apparently, Best Buy will offer the same deal (BB GC) during BF.

Edit: some idiots have been replying to me on how they like this deal better than BB's since GC is more useful to them. I couldn't care less about your situation. I'm just letting people know about BB's deal.
Assuming you're treating the $20 like cash, you're getting 16.67% off, not 20%.

20% would be if they were only charging you $80 for a $100 gift card. You're paying $100 for $120.

Edit: Unless you're including the Red Card 5% off, in which case it's more like 21%

I actually typed them in. Didn't think of cut and paste. Maybe I will do that when I start my new batch of orders.

Can the apple gift cards be used to pay down my Apple Card?
I do not believe you can do this. You would need to use it during checkout rather then pay off the credit on the card atleast from what I've read.

Is target gift card coming with a code or is it going to your account?

I'm asking because what if I open different accounts and buy multiple apple gc then merge the target gc that coming with them?
Mine came as a code and then I had the option to add it to my account or not. The Target code arrived only after I redeemed my Apple gift card by adding it to my apple account. Not sure what others experienced

I still think you're wrong. Let me try and help...Let's just pretend it's ALL cash and ignore cash back/reward points for the moment:

You are being charged $100 for $120 of cash, aka 16.67% off.

You're thinking of it as being charged $80 for $100, but that's not the case. You are being forced to "buy" $120 in cash. There is no other option available.

Helpful?
I'm being charged 96 dollars for 120.

No, it's just semantics at this point. Everyone here can divide 100 by 120. Congrats on that. What is the justified net cost to someone when all is said and done? (Given Target GC = cash) It's a 20-24% discount.
The net cost is $100 (for $120 of goods). You should think about changing your user name.

I bet Best Buy lost a ton of sales by moving their promotion to the 26th. I know I just spent $700 at Target instead of Best Buy simply because I didn't want to wait.
No they haven't "lost" sales. Folks will still buy from them

Moment of silence for that person who ordered all 10 gift cards in one transaction.

Fact. To simply for it for the gentleman that is struggling with the math I suggested we ignore the credit card discount / cash back.

I'm seeing a vivid discussion of discount percentage going on here. Guys, I think we need to look at the donut, not look through the donut. Cheers to a great day!

Yep, it's how I got the MacBook Air M1 that I'm typing this on right now (from the last Target GC sale). Just add all the Apple gift cards to your account, and when you check out at the Apple store (online only, not in store), choose to pay with your gift card credit.

And yes, the base new M1 MacBook Air is completely worth it. If anyone is on the fence between 8 and 16 gb or the Air vs Pro, try the base Air first. It's amazing what it can do without ever slowing down or heating up.
Great I'm customizing right now. So 16gb ram and 512 on hard drive right? It's around 1700 after tax for 13 in macbook

Unless you do really intensive work, 16 isn't necessary.

Now keep in mind you're losing some of that when you shop at Target using your Target gift cards, because you're no longer getting 5 percent off any of the purchase that is paid for with the Target gift cards. It essentially negates the Red Card.

Lol. Let ME try and help.

You start your comment with the assumption that Target gift card is same as the cash ("Assuming you're treating the $20 like cash, you're getting "). How much more clear could you get in that assumption?

Now you come back and justify your comment saying the gift card is not the same as cash.

By your first assumption, your maths, and hence your comment is wrong.
Funny that we're arguing so much about math in this thread. I think user "deal master" has a nice argument. However, the issue stems from whether the user considers the gift cards to be cash. All gift cards are technically "cash" when used at the appropriate store.

The math for percent saved works out as [1 - (total expense/total gained)].

Assume it's all cash. You give me $100 and I give you $120. Yes, $120 is 20% more than $100. However, we aren't looking how much larger 120 is vs 100. We are looking at the percent discount.

Assume the same situation as above, but now you give me $80 and I give you $100. $100 is 25% larger than $80. However, percent discount is 20%.

I think this makes the most sense. So overall percent discount for this sale is 16.67%.
