FYI Target is once again offering a free $10 Target gift card when you spend at least $100 in Apple gift cards online or in stores. The deal is valid 4/2 thru 4/8 according to page 6 of the weekly ad preview: https://weeklyad.target.com/promo...402&page=6 Ad does not indicate a limit of 1 per guest, but YMMV in stores.

RedCard holders can save an additional $4.50. The discount is not equal to 5% ($5) because Target assigns a $10 charge to the "free" gift card and $90 for the remaining balance owed. Therefore RedCard 5% is based on $90 so the discount equals $4.50.

https://www.target.com/s?searchTe...+gift+card

P.S. Apple has a limit of $2000 to be saved to your Apple Account Balance (*I believe*) + an additional 4 gift cards during checkout when using the Apple Store app, but the website checkout still allows 8. An individual gift card can also not exceed $2000.

Be careful when purchasing in the store. There is known scams [google.com] going on where giftcards are tampered with.

Dont buy when seal is tampered. Scammers are getting creative to hide this, so check multiple times. They remove the internal gift card or replace it with some other giftcards.
Take pictures of receipts and front-back of gift card envelope and inside card

Target physical store cant do anything if you bought tampered card and will direct you to target giftcard services at 8005442943

If you are stuck with bad giftcard, here are multiple routes you can take (all of them are slow).
1. Contact Apple and explain the situation, they might help you. But mostly they will direct you to Target as cards are bought there.

2. Contact 8005442943, explain the situation. They will create case # and email you to attach all the details. Wait for few days for the result.

Your comment cannot be blank.

I'm hoping Target will offer a Circle Bonus during the week as well since this deal will count toward the spend requirement.

Tried that, but denied. They said they cant do anything in the store. It has to be done online.

They're lying. During a previous promotion, I bought 7 when the store policy was apparently limited to 5. They had no issue whatsoever voiding the extra 2 transactions and refunding me even though I didn't want them to.

I have no problem getting more than 1 in store. Just do separate transaction. I did 4 today.

For those buying this in store, make sure you open the gc and check for anything that look specious before buying it. I found one that the redeem code had been scratched off.
I'm curious how you get the $10 Target GC issued to you when doing this in the store?Smilie

Go to self checkout, there's a bunch of target gcs right there. The machine will prompt you to scan one after each apple gc. To be fair it's pretty slow and obnoxious. I prefer doing this online from now on. Much less messy.

I bought 8 from target. But 5 of them are showing no scratch code or valid code. I am checking with apple but hopes are dim. 😞

I hope you purchased using a credit card. This is "not as described" (it's not $100 value). Keep everything you can to prove your case. Give Target one chance to fix this: document their name, date, and time.

If they refuse to resolve it your next call is to your bank and tell them you want to file a chargeback on the cards that failed to activate. Reason is "merchandise not as described." Target knows full well this has been going on a while and it's on them to be accountable for it.

But one order per account online though. At least no one here says otherwise. Cancellations on additional orders.

Look at my previous post on page 2. As long as I use the target app on my iphone I can keep ordering gift cards. I bought and redeemed 10 so far. All online.

Good info, I had not gone back to the beginning since I posted. hug
Maybe I can offer you a good tip now. Go into your user page and select the tab "Settings and Options">"Edit Options">"Number of Posts to Show Per Page". You can adjust the number of posts you can see per page up to 45. Less page turning. All of the posts are in my "page one" for this thread.

You scan the apple gc first, it will prompt to scan a target gc (which you can grab from the shelf) when you about to pay. After the transaction, I went to target starbucks to load the apple gc into my apple ID account. Then repeat the transactions, don't want to hold up the line. You can use the same target gc to add the $10 each time. You don't have to get a new target gc everytime.

You were luckier than me. When I encountered a similar issue Target store and Apple both would do squat for me. Took about a month of nagging to finally get Target's gift card vendor company to refund me (minus the $10 for target gift card).

I bet Apple still hasn't fixed their manufacturing line yet. My problem was clearly an issue on Apple's side where the gift card inside didn't match the packaging outside (so the wrong card gets activated at checkout). Everything looked fine - it was sealed, scratch code still intact.

Long story short, I also am never going to buy these in store again. Slowly building up my balance 2 cards at a time (we have 2 accounts) whenever these deals show up.

It is really sad. I went back to the store and found couple of tampered giftcards and gave it to manager so that other can be avoided with the pain.

AFAIK, people had some success doing it online (safer) multiple times. Give it a shot.

I was able to buy 2 using Target App. Thanks for the note! I may even buy more, this avoids the issues seen in store.

I've bought thousands of dollars before in anticipation of buying a new iPhone. Now that I have the latest phone, it's harder to buy these as interest rate is up and basically can get 5 pct return on money. If buying soon, worth it. If not buying soon, value is less
