In fact, this weekend only, Target will offer a Target gift card sale.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, Dec. 2 and Sunday, Dec. 3, <a href=\"https:\/\/fave.co\/47WVFnJ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Target gift cards are 10% off<\/a> in-store and online with a one-time-use <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/target-new-loyalty-program\/\">Target Circle<\/a> discount.<\/p>\n<p>From milk and bananas to clothes, luggage, toys and home furnishings, Target is the one-stop destination for almost everything. It&#8217;s pretty hard to go wrong buying a Target gift card whether for yourself or someone on your shopping list.<\/p>\n<p>If you know you&#8217;re likely to regularly shop at Target for the foreseeable future, buying discount gift cards now also helps you meet <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/ways-to-meet-minimum-spending-requirement\/\">a minimum credit card spend<\/a> to earn a credit card <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/limited-time-card-offers\/\">sign-up bonus<\/a>. That way, you&#8217;ll meet the deadline for the earning spending bonus and save money on Target purchases over time. If you have some Toys-for-Tots type purchases to make and donate, these gift cards can make it easy to stretch those donation dollars 10% further, too.<\/p>\n<p>To take advantage of the kick-off to the holiday savings, you&#8217;ll first need to <a href=\"https:\/\/fave.co\/47WVFnJ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">activate the offer in your Target Circle account<\/a>. This limits the number of discounted gift card transactions to just one per account. You can purchase smaller denomination gift cards up to the $500 discounted max or one $500 gift card, as long as it is all in one transaction with the Target Circle offer activated.<\/p>\n<p>A few restrictions apply:<\/p>\n<div class=\"&#10;        EmailSignUp_container__70lh2&#10;        undefined&#10;        EmailSignUp_isLoading__zGkU5&#10;      \"><picture class=\"EmailSignUp_graphic__AEA5s\"><source media=\"screen and (max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"\/images\/EmailSignUp\/daily-mob.svg\"\/><\/picture>\n<div class=\"EmailSignUp_form__cnneL\">\n<p>Daily Newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Reward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Join over 700,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG\u2019s experts<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Limit one offer per guest to purchase Target gift cards online or in-store.<\/li>\n<li>One transaction can include multiple Target gift cards up to $500 ($50 maximum discount).<\/li>\n<li>Offer excludes Visa Gift Cards, Mastercard Gift Cards, American Express Gift Cards and gift cards issued by other retailers, such as dining, lifestyle and entertaining gift cards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"jsx-4252866712 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-36530878 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:41.348973607038126%\"\/><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/12\/Target-gift-cards.jpg.png?width=3840\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-4252866712 figcaption\">TARGET<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you want to increase the value of this deal, you can pay for your discounted gift cards with a <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/credit-cards\/chase\/5x-chase-freedom-paypal\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chase Freedom Flex via the PayPal checkout option<\/a> on the desktop Target.com site.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t already maxed out your $1,500 toward Freedom Flex&#8217;s 5-points-per-dollar bonus categories for this quarter (including PayPal), you should earn 5 points per dollar spent on this purchase (activation is required).<\/p>\n<p>With this, you can buy a $500 Target gift card for $450 and earn 1,350 Ultimate Rewards points (or $27 at current valuations of 2 cents per point) via PayPal with the Freedom Flex card. If you also have a premium Ultimate Rewards card, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/credit-cards\/chase-sapphire-reserve\/\">Chase Sapphire Reserve<\/a>, those 2,250 points you&#8217;ll earn are worth over $46, according to TPG valuations. That totals $96 in savings\/earnings on a $500 purchase.<\/p>\n<p>This is beneficial if you would spend those dollars over the coming weeks and months at Target anyway. Finally, <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/maximizing-online-shopping-portals\/\">going through a shopping portal<\/a> before clicking on the Target website is also good advice, though gift card purchases are typically excluded from earning cash back.<\/p>\n<p><em>Additional reporting by Jennifer Yellin and Melissa Klurman.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Black Friday and Cyber Monday are in the rearview mirror, but the deals haven&#8217;t stopped just yet.
