A google search found this posting but I see it's from 07 - but a gift card I'm looking for was just out this Xmas 08. I haven't seen the actual gift card but here's how someone described it: Thinner than foam core, mechanical. Flips onto itself, but no tabs but no matter how you bend/flip it it stays the size of a gift card. Different parts bend forward/backwards...when you bend it, different things are created with various folds. If you happen to have this version - will you take a couple pics n' post or email them to me? Greatly appreciate it! Jen Do you still collect gift cards from Target?

I was going to elaborate on that... $1.00 is the minimum on each card - at least at the Target where I shop. Each card has to be purchased and have the amount applied. There are different kiosks of Target gift cards throughout the store each with varying designs. Electronics, housewares, greeting cards and at each checkout lane. I make sure I purchase the batch of giftcards at a slow time, as some people may not appreciate being next in line behind me buying them as they require two extra steps by the cashier! I suppose the giftcards are an inventoried item... thus not free. The beautiful thing is once the card is redeemed, they can be kept by the customer. I can't possible anyone throwing them away (from a pack rat's perspective - grin) Judie, I’m so glad you asked! I was going to elaborate on that…

That's one store where I can <em>always</em> find something I want...unfortunately. ;-) So let me be the one to ask - do you have to put money on each gift card that you collect in order to legally take it from the store? If so, what is the minimum? Kerry, I love giving and getting gift cards – especially from Target! That’s one store where I can always find something I want…unfortunately. ;-)
