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%

Quote from LiquidIce :
I did do self-checkout, I had a stack of $500 worth of $50 gift cards - no $100 were left - the lady was walking past me must have saw it and she was extremely loud saying "You can only buy 2 of those! You can't buy that many!" then she stood there and said "Hand me the rest of those cards" and she kept saying as loud as she could "You can only buy 2!" ...

She was not very polite at all, I think she could have been a little more discrete and nicer about it but whatever, Thanksgiving weekend can be stressful and 2020 has been a stressful year.

I didn't give her any resistance other than saying "The circular doesn't say there is a limit" (which is true) and she said "It says it online" - which it only says limit 1 per guest transaction - which is likely a limitation of their system being able to issue you multiple gift cards when you purchase more than 1 Apple Gift Card.

I didn't argue past that point, I just handed her the gift cards because it wouldn't have helped the situation at all.

I ended up going back to my local Target and just suffering through buying $25 gift cards at self-checkout, but nobody cared that I did it there.
" give me those! What are you doing?!!!? Not that many?!??? LIMIT 2! You can't have too many everybody!!!!!!"

No this is different, i am able to access the gift card code but when i apply it on apple, it says the code is invalid, kindly check or retry again. The code is not validated at checkout time.
Did you ever figure this out I bought 6 cards and am having the same issue, I'm afraid target won't be much help.

That is a sub-optimal calculation.
Since you are the smart one.....

For online purchases only.

Can one buy 1 $100 gift card, then wait for the $20 Target gift card before ordering the second $100 gift card?

I don't care about maximizing the 5% red card or Chase Freedom discount. Instead, I want to lower the overall upfront payment.

Thanks.

Guys, Illini is correct with the math. You are effectively paying 100 dollars for 120 dollars worth of value (100 apple gc + 20 target gc) which equates to a 16.67% discount. But use your Red card or Chase via Paypal to make it closer to 20%. Either ways, great value for brand new apple products.

Discover also has 5% back on Best Buy right now. So if BB GCs are more valuable to you then the cost should be the same.

I have purchased 12, each with individual transactions. I have received all my codes and still waiting for the 3 more $20 gift card. No issues at all. It does take a little longer this time, probably due to high demand.

Dont be mis guided. Read the OPs description. Buy any combination of apple giftcard of $100 to get $20 target gift card. Use same account, no fake ones necessary. If u r impatient, go multiple traget store do self check out

1) Has anyone bought 8 or 10 e-gift cards TODAY, or YESTERDAY, specifically and received the $20 target gift card on every e-gift card?

2. Has each transaction gone through on paypal (Chase Freedom with 5% bonus) without it being blocked?

You cannot use the Target gift card to purchase another gift card. Plus with all the delays going on, it's very likely that you won't receive the Target gift card until after the promotion has ended.

Quote from mattperham :
Remember that for the Apple GC's purchased at Target you will only get 5% off on the Apple GC portion of the order ($80) while you get no discount on the Target GC portion ($20). So your 11 GC's will actually cost $1,056, not the $1,045 you mentioned.

It also might be worth noting that the 11 Target GC's you get won't give you 5% back on your purchases like you would get if you spent that $220 from your Red Card, so you could say you lost $11 in savings there.

I'd say you're looking at more like $440.91 from Apple, but still it's the better deal.
Sorry, off topic: can sprint swac customers still get the phone from apple, activate later and get prepaid card?

I don't know what this person is talking about. I bought one and have a pending charge for $100 on my CC. I received the Apple GC but not the Target GC.

Little confused by this. The Apples GC is $100, not $80, a piece. 11 Apples GCs ($1100 to cover the phone) would return $55 in RED (5%).

So the original math is correct... I also assume T-Mobile upgrade for buying from Apples.
