Target shoppers can get a free Target gift card worth $15 when they spend $50 on select household essentials, according to the retailer’s promotion. The offer runs through Aug. 1 and works both online and in Target stores.
The deal is aimed at the stuff that vanishes from closets and cabinets fastest: toilet paper, laundry detergent, trash bags, dish soap, paper towels, cleaning supplies and more. If the weekly restock is already coming, this is the kind of cart-padding that pays back in red-and-white plastic.
How do I get a free Target gift card?
To qualify, shoppers need to add eligible household products to their Target cart until the subtotal for included items reaches $50. Target’s deal applies automatically at checkout, according to the promotion.
For online orders, the $15 gift card is added to the shopper’s Target account after the items ship. The same promotion is also available for customers who prefer to shop in person at a Target store.
The offer is limited to select household essentials, so not every product in the aisle will count toward the $50 threshold. Target’s promotion page lets shoppers filter eligible items by brand or product type, which should make the hunt less of a scroll marathon.
What household items are included in the Target gift card deal?
The promotion covers a long list of everyday home supplies, including several categories that families tend to buy again and again. The included product types cited in the promotion include:
- Toilet paper
- Paper towels
- Paper plates
- Laundry soap
- Dishwasher pods
- Cleaning supplies
- Trash bags
Several national names are part of the offer, including Arm & Hammer, Mrs. Meyer’s, Bounty, Glad, Clorox, Angel Soft and Dawn. Target-owned brands are also included, such as up&up, Dealworthy and Everspring.
That mix gives shoppers a few ways to hit the $50 mark, whether they are grabbing brand-name cleaning products or filling the cart with Target labels. The promotion includes more than 50 pages of qualifying household essentials, according to the deal listing.
Anyone trying to claim the gift card needs to shop by the end of Aug. 1. The basic math is simple: spend $50 on eligible essentials, get a $15 Target gift card once the qualifying purchase is processed under the promotion’s rules.
