Target $10 Gift Card w/purchase of any set $39.99 or more

Post by zak001 » Sun Oct 28, 2012 1:10 am

Excludes Friends, quantities limited. Not a bad deal for a frequent Target shopper; Star Wars 9494 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor and Monster Fighters 9465 The Zombies are Target exclusives at $39.99 each, so this is effectively 25% off, smidgen more if you have a Target debit or credit card.

Anyone know if this is valid online? Gift card doesn't show up in cart...makes me wary of pulling the trigger on some target exclusives...

Don't forget about the Orc Forge, another Target exclusive.

I stopped by my local Target this morning and they didn't give me the giftcard for the Zombie set. I'm not sure if it's just for specific sets?

The target store I went to today had signs under specific sets advertising $10 gift cards with purchase.

I'd take it back to customer service and ask for an adjustment. The ad says ANY LEGO set $39.99 and up, the only exclusion mentioned is Friends.

The Orc forge was listed for 39.29 at the store I went to, so unavailable for the deal. I had purchased the MF zombies set last week using a 5% off coupon, but they went ahead & gave me a $10 giftcard without having to return & rebuy it.

I got the Zombies and Orc Forge. Each scanned at 39.99 but with no gift card for either. Fortunately, a Target manager looked at the printed ad and quickly made the adjustments for the gift cards.

Picked up the Orc Forge, but the $10 GC didn't show in the system at my Target either. After pointing out the ad to a manager, they were able to take care of me.

There were no sale tags for Zombies or Orc Forge as there were on other sets and they did not scan for the gift card on the shelf scanners or the register. They called a manager and I showed her the print ad and she gave me the gift cards. The part about excluding only Friends helped show it was not only for the SW Calendar or Ninjago set only.

same experience for me. picked up a zombies set today. GC didnt ring up at the register. took it to 'guest services', and they did a price correction there.

Zombie graveyard didn't ring up but I was on lunch run so didn't fight it. I just got Ninjago Samurai Mech, the other set I had with me. I will stop by another Target after work with printout of ad to dispute nicely if necessary as ad clearly states any LEGO set $39.99 or above except for Friends. If it rings up as $39.98 or less I won't dispute it.

EDIT: Didn't ring up at another store. Took it to Customer Service and showed printout of ad from online. She made sure it was legit and she manually rang it up and gave $10 gift card.

Same issue as others. $10 GC sign all over $49.99 and up. My store seemed to think that was the 'sale'. I pointed out the ad on their Target.com advertisement and they adjusted the price by $10 instead. Even better so I don't even have to use the GC on another purchase :)
I have mixed feelings about new releases: I can't wait to see and get the new sets... but I can't figure out where I'm gonna put them or store them.

Hmm. I hate having to get adjustments. Wish it would just work.

I got Samurai Mech, Zombies and Orc Forge. The last two didn't ring correctly, so they did a manual adjustment. Assuming it's a systemwide programming error. (Has anyone tried this with Anakin's Jedi Interceptor or City Bank & Money Transfer, also Target exclusives?)

My store wouldn't honor the ad for the Orc Forge and Zombies set stating that it had to be the sets w/ the tags. I then showed them how not all sets have tags and still ring up w/ the $10gc. The Orc Forge and Zombies set both don't ring up for some reasons, but she used the $3 off "Target apology" coupon 3 times, so i got $9 off...not gonna complain about that last dollar.

Same issue at my local Target. Zombies and Orc Forge were not labeled as being included in the deal, but they gave me the card with the Zombies set after checking the ad.

Got Quinjet, Hulk Breakout, Zombies, Crazy Scientist and Anakin Interceptor. Anakin and Zombies did not ring up the card. Managers just gave me $10 off on those (because of the ad)!
