How BOGO works at Target

Target runs buy-one-get-one and 'Buy 2, Get 1 Free' promotions, often on books, movies, video games, board games and toys, plus 'gift card with purchase' offers. Its help pages say the discount goes on the lowest-priced item, and Target Circle deals apply when you identify as a member.

Rules to know

  • Discount is applied to the lowest-priced qualifying item.
  • Gift card with purchase: the gift card is a separate item, ships separately, and is non-refundable.
  • Returning a qualifying item reduces your refund by the prorated discount.
  • Only one item-level and one category-level Target Circle deal can apply per item.

Tips to save more

  • Put the most expensive items in the deal - the cheapest one gets the discount.
  • Stack with a category Target Circle deal where allowed (one item-level + one category-level).
  • Gift-card deals are a future-spend rebate, not an instant discount.
