Archived Discount no longer works on giftcards?

[Amly_221B]

So a co worker was telling me they were trying to buy a itunes gift card today and our team member discount no longer works for them? I'm not sure about starbuck ones, disney, southwest, ect. Anyone heard anything about this? I know I use to buy my itunes ones with me discount all the time?

Nah, they got rid of it a few weeks ago. Cheap bastards.

They cut that out back in April. They claimed they did it to align with industry standards. But the truth is, they're just cheap jerks.

One of the more douchebag moves on Target's part.

A RedCard discount still applies though. (Bright side?)

That being said I was bummed too.

Ugh that's annoying! 🙁
I loved getting 15% off gift cards.

Noticed this myself last week. Went to buy two World of Tanks giftcards (IS-6 was on sale) and it wasn't giving me my discount. Slight disappointment ensued.

Well our generous raises & excellent benefits makes up for this insult.

Oh wait. I must have been hallucinating again. Never mind.

I was completely bummed about this. Back before I was planning on leaving, I had plans to start stockpiling Disney gift cards to use for a family vacation in 2016. Doing the math, I would have saved over $600 on the resort package alone if I was getting 15% off the cards. Boo =( Oh well, I can't use the employee discount now anyway. Still planning on using the GCs though. 5% is better than 0% lol

I have a friend that used to benefit from me picking up some WoT giftcards with my discount (especially during those sale periods that Wargaming.net loves to have). Now I just buy my gold online. (Amazon occasionally has some good Tanks offers).

This one still annoys me. Grrr.

 

[Hauteclaire]

That's awful. I would always buy the gift cards before going to see a movie, was one of the best perks of working for Target.

 

[Amaazingdude]

dislike.

I used to buy steam gift cards, stopped doing so when I realized this had changed the last time I did so.

You still get the 5% redcard discount, but you don't need a TM to get that. Doesn't take as much off, but if it's for stuff you buy already like Starbucks and iTunes, it's still a bit of a perk. But yeah, Spot used to get a lot more of my money when I could get 10% off on the gift cards.

First I've heard about this. Bummed out since I usually bought the iTunes card packages for stocking stuffers when they went on sale and other gift cards for teacher gifts. Waaah!
