Target’s annual gift card promotion offering 10% off $500 in Target gift cards will be coming this Saturday (12/6/25) and Sunday (12/7/25), both online and in-store. These can obviously be worthwhile both for personal use and potentially for reselling, though we always caution folks who are tempted to try to exceed the limit. (h/t: DOC)

Quick Thoughts
Target runs this deal every year, and regular Target shoppers always get excited about the chance to save up to $50. You can load these gift cards to your Target wallet and use them on your phone to pay in-store, making them easy to use over time. Many people will find this worthwhile for personal use, particularly those who shop regularly at Target and/or are trying to, ahem, hit the target for minimum spend on a new credit card welcome offer. Note that you’ll need to load the coupon to Target Circle before buying the gift cards.
If you don’t shop at Target regularly, this could still be useful depending on your resale avenues. I wouldn’t expect to turn much of a profit, but for many, the chance to break even on a decent chunk of spend is appealing.
We don’t recommend trying to game this and exceed the per-customer limit. A few years ago, there were reports of people whose gift cards were zeroed out days after the promotion, which would have been an enormous headache.

Does this stack with the 5% discount when using Target credit/debit cards?
Unfortunately, no. Target gift cards are specifically excluded in the 5% terms.
