LOL... I just received a shipping notice for a gift card I received a month ago.
Me too!LOL... I just received a shipping notice for a gift card I received a month ago.
Definitely YMMV, I was able to convert $600 GS GC to eBay today doing $300 at each store and employees had no problem with it at all.Just FYI....My DH went to GS today to buy a $400 Ebay GC with our GS cards. He handed the cashier the loadable Ebay card and asked for $400. He proceeded to pull out the GS cards to scan and was told to hold on. Policy changed and they can no longer accept GCs for Ebay cards. Only cash or credit cards.
He then tried another store close to us and they didn't have any ebay in stock. The sales person told him they have never carried them.
This is new for both of these stores. The first one we churned through just a couple of weeks ago with no problems. Same with the second store, so I know they used to carry ebay.
I'm hoping I can convert the cards at another store. I think it really is time for me to cash out and get out of the game at least for awhile. The risk is getting to me along with all the face to face churns. So different than ordering target online.
Just thought I would share our experience. It really is YMMV with GS.

Do you mean a gc you had loaded to the app or your profile?So, I think I am the latest casualty to Target 'losing' my GC's that I had stored in their system. I *think* it is about $25...it was various remnants of $12.xx, $5.xx, etc. Their new website stinks. I cannot look up old orders. It literally shows me the order I placed tonight and then goes back to Dec. Umm, I've placed probably 30-40 orders since December! They are just...poof!...gone. As are the GC's I had stored in their system. I will always spend over my GC amount from here on even if it means buying something just to return it.
Still works.Can I buy a Target gc at my grocery store and still use the Target gc online to get the redcard discount? I have been following along, just want to make sure the target online 5% hasn't dried up very recently.
This happened with one of my Target gift cards and it magically reappeared the next day.So, I think I am the latest casualty to Target 'losing' my GC's that I had stored in their system.

In may, right before everything stopped, I ordered ebay gift cards from target and they were delivered almost immediately.Did you look on the app to see if they were there? I have no idea if that is helpful, but maybe...
Also, I hate their new site too. When I want to look at previous orders it defaults to showing images of the items I've previously purchased. How is that helpful to a consumer? I don't get it. You have to switch to the date view (or order view?), then scroll to find your order. Then, to look at another order, you have to through the whole process again. it may not seem taxing but if you want to go back and look at multiple orders, it's a pain.
Finally, I went back and checked all the balances on my Target GCs and I think something is not right with the system. I checked a card that I know had a balance - it showed up in my Target account - and Target gave me the same message it does for the empty cards (it never says $0.00 for me).

These were the remaining balances of GC's that I had partially used so Target stored the balances in their system. When you go to make your next purchase, the balance would be there and you could apply it to your purchase. I had like 3 or 4 small balances remaining. Those are gone from my account. They were there on June 23rd when I made a purchase but gone as of last night.
