Chase Freedom card 5% off category for Q1 2023 includes Target as well. So no advantage of paying with red card over that one for this deal.

Makes the 41mm 8 GPS series only $30.57 more than the comparable 7 series from the target sale price. IMO, that's worth the extra money simply for the increase in resale or trade in value down the road.

for those with access to AAFES/shopmyexchange they have it for the same price so you'll save on tax.

-edit-
they only have the 45mm in stock in the midnight color with the small/medium band.

Depends on your needs.

The differences between Series 7 & 8: (otherwise, they are identical)

Crash detection - 8 has it, 7 does not. (Although, if you have an iPhone 14, that already has crash detection… in fact, crash detection is the only real difference between an iPhone 13 and 14!)
"Women's" cycle tracking via temperature - 8 has it, 7 does not.

Neither of those functions mattered to me so I searched for the best deal on a 7 or 8 with cellular.

Cellular function - I do not plan to turn it on immediately. You can ignore the function and use the watch just like one without cellular. But in the future I plan to turn it on so that my phone does not need to be within range of the watch. The watch becomes a free-standing phone, even in the absence of your phone. The MSRP a price difference for the cellular feature is +$100.

So the Walmart deal, at $329 is a $100 better deal vs the Series 8 without cellular at $330… actually $130 better since the MSRP upcharge for the 45 mm vs 41 mm is +$30. The MSRPs of the 7 and 8 are identical.

41 vs 45 mm - note Walmart is only shipping the 45 mm version of the Series 7 with cellular, for $329. While they show the 41 mm for $299, it does not appear to be shippable… and therefore, you'd have to get a sloppy Target chat agent to get a price match. Around us, Walmart never stocks Apple Watches in store.

Apple's results seem to have some consequences on these price drops. Series 8 this week is priced right around what series 7 was priced a couple days back !

Keep them coming
Yeah wearables were down. iPads were up

I don't think that's right, read carefully: "Target: A new quarterly category for Chase Freedom, Target offers the opportunity to save on everything from clothing to home goods, electronics, toys, and more. Qualifying grocery store purchases made at Target will only earn a total of 5%." From: https://media.chase.com/news/chas...categories

seriously, dude? Can you read? It doesn't want geniuses like you to think that you can double dip and get 5% of target and 5% with grocery store purchases. Clearly you will get 5% cashback on an Apple Watch..

This may be a stupid question, but do I have to order it online at midnight to get the deal or go to the store in the morning?

Like will the price change online at a certain point so I can just buy online?

Target is not price matching Costco. I asked three different reps..all of them said its out of stock and it is on sale. We cannot price match. Guess have to wait until sunday
They do. May the reps are not aware of this.
They have a list of competitors whom they price match.
Check the list on this page. Costco is one of them.

I typically upgrade every 3 cycles on Apple Watch. Currently have series 6 and am happy with it. Any compelling reason to upgrade to 8 instead of waiting for 9?
I also have the 6, I'll probably wait for the 10 if anything. Should be a major redesign
