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%

Can someone please clarify if one can use a $20 Target gift card as a credit towards the next $100 Apple gift card at Target. Some say yes, other say no. So, what's it?
You can I did it. However, there seems to be somewhat of a delay for Target's system to activate a gift card. Like you cannot sit at self check out and loop 1 right after another it's too quick for the Target card to be activated. But if you go through the line perhaps go wait out in the car for 5 minutes come back and do it again it will be enough time for those Target GC's to be activated. I did this in batches of 3 at a time and did this a few times.

Just placed my last and final order for this sale for another 7. As of 1 hour in none have been cancelled thus far. So that is usually a good sign. Not worried about waiting up to the 48 hours as I am in no rush. Was able to get a couple orders in at Best Buy with 1 already fulfilled. Used same account and email addy, payment method etc.

If all are recieved/redeemed that would give me a couple grand worth, to max out apple account. By far this target deal although slow as molasses, has been the better deal of the 2.
You checked out 7 Apple Cards in one order, or 7 orders?

I thought you can't buy gift cards with target gift cards?

For this reason I'm considering just maxing out my 2 freedom cards (5% back on paypal up to $1500) and buying $3k worth. I plan to pickup a 16" macbook pro next year when it's ready and that will prob be $2500 alone.

So, if there is a loophole, does this mean it only applies to buying it at the store as opposed to online?

OR, is there no loophole and one can actually do this kind of transaction online and instore?

Ordered 7 with discover (all of them in "Preparing" status now), but they keep canceling more orders. I wanted to get 8 or 9 GC because my plan is to get Mac Mini 16 GB. I tried a different credit card as well and more orders are immediately canceled. I think I hit the target side limit already.

I don't think there is any loophole. For the 1st transaction I did I actually used the $20 Target GC I got from my online purchase of the Apple GC. But the in-store /self checkout method you are prompted to activate the Target GC immediately on checkout. And while my testing proved that the Target GC isn't immediately activated it only takes a few minutes.

Also any denomination of $100 works with the promo. A couple stores I went to ran out of $100/50 cards but 4x $25 cards works fine. I even did $50 / $25 / $25 for one and it worked.

does the Target gift card have a number? Is it automatically added to your account. What is the time gap from placing an order to getting $20 Target gift card. Have you been able to use the $20 Target card towards another Apple gift card.

did you reach out to Discover? Why not order through PayPal using Discover? Did you do anything to cause the problem?

How many cards did you buy so far...to hit the limit? What's the limit?
