Save Up to 5% Off at Target Every Day

Michelle — Thu, 12 May 2011 17:23:09 +0000

Plastic Jungle currently sells Target GiftCards and Target e-GiftCards (eCODEs) at up to 5% off.

Bring on the savings.

Five percent?! You think, “That’s hardly worth my time.” Well, when you compound a 5% discount with the hot deals Target throws out online, you’ll have great stuff delivered to your door. Clever shoppers might already have the hook-up with Target Mobile — a set of Apps and text alerts (across platforms) that keeps users informed as to the hottest Target deals and Target sales.

Currently, Target.com has free shipping on orders over $50 – which is offered without the use of any promo code, and applies to merchandise across departments.

Also on right now at Target.com: 15% off purchases of $125 or more on select furniture and select rugs through May 14, 2011. And don’t forget the furniture already on Target’s Clearance pages.

Target Clearance – Save up to 65% on select items. For example, check out this bargain table and chairs. It’s at 50% off… there is a small cost for shipping this oversize piece, but you’re not lugging it home, and the cost of the oversize shipping might be covered by your 5% discounted gift card. Target Clearance is huge, and covers all departments, including swimwear for the family, Health & Beauty, Bed & Bath, Kitchen… there are thousands of items in Target’s online Clearance pages.

Daily Deals – Now Target offers online merchandise that’s “priced to amaze”. See the official Daily Deal as well as fantastic bargains at what seems to be 20% off full retail or more. (Well, yes, I do need a new digital camera at $35–on sale today. Send it on over with free shipping.)

Consider checking out the Target.com Coupon Page: to your 5% savings on your Target Gift Card, take home another discount on your favorite name-brand products you purchase regularly.

Free Stuff at Target.com

Interested in winning a $500 Target Gift Card? It doesn’t take much if you shop at Target regularly: You can write a product review and you could win a $500 Target Gift Card. See Target Gift Card giveaway official rules for details.

And finally, Target is going the extra mile to get Target.com visitors free product samples. How fun is that?

What is it you regularly purchase at Target? If you’re a regular Target customer, it’s a no-brainer to purchase a discounted gift card that over time, could save you double-digit dollars.

Friday Gift Card Giveaways 2/18/2011

We Junglers are a savvy shopping bunch. We’re also big-time travelers. And eaters… we love to dine out! And just like everyone else, we love a good deal. So what happens when an entire office is constantly trolling the web for the best deals? You get a ton of juicy scoop on the best deals and discounts from a huge spectrum of retailers, airlines, hotel chains, and restaurants.

In fact, if you have a question about any retailer, airline, hotel chain, restaurant chain, it’s a good bet we could come up with an answer for you. Just ask your question in the comments section of the blog, and we’ll get the info to you, or at least start a discussion on the topic. One of the biggest questions we get is “How do I check the balance on my gift card?” The answer is that every retailer is different, but if you check our “Gift Card Balance” blog posts, you’ll find answers for the most traded gift cards on Plastic Jungle, including Walmart, Home Depot, Target, and Gap Brands.

Plus with all that web-hopping, we’re bound to come across a few eye-popping big-ticket sweepstakes and giveaways too good to keep to ourselves.

As the web’s largest secured gift card exchange, we’ve seen the volume of gift cards exchanged on our site rise exponentially in the past year (see our Plastic Jungle blog post with figures). It’s exciting to see consumers finding great ways to save money time and time again.

During the holidays, we found that the top ten gift cards purchased on our site were from versatile retailers with many product lines to offer. Clearly, we’ve got a hot market if you’re willing to sell any of these gift cards. Check the Plastic Jungle “Sell Gift Cards” page to see what your exchange value will be.
