Target has a gift card deal running through Nov. 14 that gives you a $10 bonus Target gift card on $100 in eligible gift card purchases. If you have the right Target Circle offers, you may be able to stack even more savings.
I just combined three Target deals to earn $30 in Target gift cards and rewards on $200 in Disney e-gift cards I needed anyway. And I did it all from my couch in just a few minutes.
Get a $10 bonus Target gift card with a $100 purchase of other gift cards
Until Nov. 14, you can get a $10 bonus Target gift card when you purchase $100 worth of other retailer gift cards available from Target — and yes, this works with e-gift cards, too.
A few of the big-name gift card options this works with include:
- Disney
- Apple
- Uber
- DoorDash
- Southwest Airlines
- Marriott
- Home Depot
- Nordstrom
- Starbucks
- Many more, including fast food restaurants and big retailers
Note that this deal does not work with Target gift cards or Amex / Visa-type gift cards.
To get this deal, purchase $100 in eligible gift cards during this sale, and you’ll also get a bonus $10 Target gift card emailed to you. In my tests, it works more than once, though likely not indefinitely. I received both the retailer e-gift card and the Target e-gift card within minutes of making the purchase.
Potentially stack Target Circle deals for more Target credit
In my Target Circle account, I had a deal for $10 in bonus Target Circle Rewards (essentially $10 in Target credit) after making two eligible $50 Target purchases by Nov. 18. Third-party retailer gift cards worked for this deal.
So, when I placed two back-to-back orders for $100 Disney e-gift cards that I can use to pay my Disney Vacation Club dues, I also earned $10 in bonus Target Circle credit on top of the two $10 Target gift cards I received for those orders.
Stack with a 25% off Target Circle deal for an even better deal
You could stop with the first two steps — or even just the first step — and still have a solid deal.
But another Target Circle deal in my account is making this overall deal even better. That deal is for 25% off one children’s toy or book. And one of the items on my daughter’s Christmas list is a boxed book series that is sold by Target and is regularly $47.99.
With that 25% off Target Circle deal, the price drops to $35.99 before tax. I used the three $10 Target credits I already had from the gift card purchases and almost fully covered the cost of the gift.
Target even already had the two $10 e-gift cards and the $10 in Target Circle Rewards available at checkout for me to click to use, as shown below, making the whole process very simple.
TPG tip: Start your online purchases through a site such as Rakuten to earn bonus points or cash back on top of the deals you’re getting directly through Target.
Bottom line
Your Target Circle deals may vary a bit from mine, but the $10 bonus Target gift cards with the $100 in retailer gift cards portion of this should work for everyone.
If you have a Target credit card, you should also get your typical 5% discount on these purchases.
And if you are sad this doesn’t include Target gift cards, I’d stay tuned, as in the last few years Target has offered a one- or two-day sale of 10% off Target gift cards for Target Circle members, so it is certainly possible that will return, too.
