    51C44FC5-3D86-4FEA-92CD-D3FB75314757.jpeg View attachment 28417788 A few weeks ago, someone in here mentioned that target was giving a $50 off $100+ purchase if you got the red card. So I applied for it. And they have their own $25 off $100 deal going. And uh..

    It appears signing up for a red card today does not qualify for the 50 off 100 deal. Unless I'm incorrect, which I'm hoping I am.

    From what I can find it looks like the 50 off 100 deal ended on 9/28. I hope someone proves me wrong.

    Nice find by the way!

    Just picked up my Omega Supreme from Target. Got $25 off $100 and paid half of it with gift cards from the previous promo.

    Did somone say there is some way to buy Target Gift cards for less than Retail or get a bonus on them somehow so you get more on top of what you buy ?

    Or perhaps I can get cashback by buying Targetgiftcards even if I can't buying toys on target I was looking at Topcashback - who currently have a $2.50 off $10.00 spend offer on but they don't allow Target toy purchases. - which is annoying.

    I'm not sure I qualify to get a red card mind. so I was wonder of ways to get that little tax compensating discount on top of the $25 voucher they have - any one got any ideas ?

    Raise.com is your best bet. Seems they have an additional 4% off everything promotion right now.

    What about ones that don't have to be physically posted to you (like amazon uses) as I want to use them on the current offer so posting physical cards wouldn't work - they'd need to be digital ones.

    Does anyone know what's going on with target's inventory? I've been trying to buy Studio Series Leader Optimus Prime and he goes from in stock to out of stock within 10 minutes. And that's happened 3 times now in the past 24 hours.

    That's been happening all week. Turn on the "Notify me when back in stock" and be ready to jump. I managed to order one the other day, it was just one in stock when I ordered, and it shipped the next day, so they ARE getting them.

    If you want to take advantage of the coupon I recommend having something in your cart already so you can fly through checkout process ASAP. Here's a $0.99 filler you can use to get over $50 or over $100 if you're close:

    Seconded, and I'll add one thing based on my experience getting the Rainmakers back when they were difficult to acquire. If you get the back in stock notification and quickly go the listing but it already says out of stock, try refreshing for a while. I saw them go in and out of stock multiple times over a few minutes or so on more than one occasion. Not sure if that was something weird with that one item or not, but it might be worth a try.

    I got more Rainmakers sets around here than a red headed kid's got freckles. I'll bet if you hold out a while they'll go clearance.

    Wouldn't surprise me. I saw several at my local Target. I did get a certain satisfaction out of snagging them when they were tough to get though. :)

    I decided to bank on that....or at least a good sale for the Micromaster set. However I did HAVE to get the rainmakers first chance i could. Not sorry, no regrets.

    Thanks for the tips guys!

    It was a miracle that my girlfriend was in the car with me today because while I was driving she checked on her phone to see if it was in stock and she immediately added it to the cart when it was in stock. Finally managed to purchase Studio Series 44 thanks to her!

    It should get here in a week. :thumb

    I had a short discussion with a friend about that, but I used that "$40 off $100" coupon with the RedCard debit card sign up. I doubt they would survive on clearance past 50% off.

    I’d absolutely pick up a set for $40. I only really want Acid and Nova Storm but I’ll take the set for the price of two deluxes!

    The exclusive Titans returns Soundwave didn't really go on sale. I think it dropped from $50 to $40 or so. So, I wouldn't expect a big drop, unless the store is desperate.
