Apple doesn't ask for any proof. Literally ANYONE can get the discount. The fine print, if I recall, even says parents can buy for themselves.

Load up Apple account balance using Apple gift cards from Target at close to 14% discount and wait for Tax free weekends

Yes. You will be charged 90$ for Apple gift card minus the 5% redcard discount (so $84.5) and $10 for Target card. 5% red card discount applies to Apple card only.

So $100 Apple card and $10 Target card for $94.5
When doing this, you have to purchase one at a time? To get the $10 gift card from target

Technically Apple reserves the right to charge your card more if they find out you do not qualify or cant produce credentials when asked. So be aware.

If too many folks simply switch over to the EDU and start ordering there im sure they will do something about it. This is in the Terms you agree to when you place the order.
