Target Deactivating Some Gift Cards Bought on the 10%-Off Sale

Déjà vu.

Target is again deactivating some gift cards purchased on Sunday’s 10% off sale. Similar things happened in 2017 and 2016.

In the past, it was only when multiple cards were purchased with the same credit card that they deactivated them, I assume this time is the same. Not sure if they track across stores or only when the same card was used at the same store more multiple times. If you ordered more than one gift card online, it’s possible they’ll deactivate those duplicates as well.

All cards got activated at 10 am this morning, and some got subsequently deactivated. I don’t think everyone who bought more than one gift card on the same credit card is getting deactivated, probably only the heavy hitters.

Check your Target gift card balance here. And contribute your experiences in the comments.
