What do you buy so much of at target? Do you get free shipping on small amounts if you pay with target gift card? Or do you have to use gift cards along with a red card to get free shipping below $35? Sounds like a hassle. No deals on taking out red cards?When will their iPads be on sale again? Totally missed all last week sales

Hate to be that guy, but I'm not sure why this is worth posting. You can essentially make a post for every PayPal purchase this month with Chase Freedom if following this pattern.

I buy $500 GC each time target has this sales. Very good value for the most parts. For example; they often do deal like Buy $50 get $15 GC for household items concurrently with P&G Rebates. Take last week's apple earbud 4 for $70 for example, I got mine effectively for $63 due to discount from GC. It's different for everyone, I suspect many shop at Costco enough that they stopped cross checking pricing against Costco and assume Costco has the best price all the time. They do free shipping, I believe is $35 minimum but i could be wrong. I mostly do pick-up at local stores as I do pass-by sometimes. It's a good way to keep jobs and local economy going. keeping revenue tied to our local target store do help the local community in a small way, obviously the more people in the town do this, the better it is for the town.

I usually hit up their 90% clearance and spend a good $100 on a cart full! I also get smaller increment gift cards to give to teachers and family for Christmas presents!
They also have grocery coupons that you can stack with the discounted gift cards for even more savings!

Or pay with a target card instead of PayPal for an instant 5% off
5% discount on the target card doesn't apply to gift cards

Well... this isn't that great of a deal, above and beyond the 10% discount. Adding PayPal only gives an extra 5%, but you lose Red Card savings and is only a delta of 3% over most cashback cards these days (assuming at least 2% on daily spend).

I had actually forgotten about the Chase Paypal 5 Percent cash back as it was only for the month of December. Thanks for the reminder, good timing with the Target GC deal, great post!
