Target - Get 30% off some games w $1 pre order - MK X (PS4) 38.49, BF:Hardline (XB1) 27.99, +5% more off w RedCard, +$5(or more) off w Gyft signup

****Like always, using your Target RedCard to make the purchase gets you another 5% off******

 

Take 30% off the listed price of these games when you put $1 down on a pre order card (you don't have to buy the game you preorder, but you'll lose your buck - in store.   See the following update for online orders where you are asked to pay the pre-order in full)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: from  eulogywerd21

For anyone curious about placing an online order to get the 30% off and then cancelling the preorder later, it appears that Target splits the promotional deduction between the 2 items. My Paypal order looked like this:

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (PlayStation 4) $59.99 USD

Promotion on Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (PlayStation 4) -$6.00 USD

Destiny (Xbox One) $29.99 USD

Promotion on Destiny (Xbox One) -$3.00 USD

Amount $80.98 USD

If you attempt to cancel the preorded item, they'll split the promotional % off similarly.

Target's Video Game selection

(51 games here, 29 pre orders to choose from and 22 games you can apply the 30% off to)

 

Seems to work online with the games that are already discounted in that group, too.  Add a pre order (also from that page) to your cart and you should see an additional discount.

 

Mortal Kombat X (PS4) goes from $54.99 to $38.49, (XB1) from 59.99 to 41.99

Battlefield Hardline (XB1, XB360, PS3) goes from 39.99 to 27.99  (PS4) goes from 59.99 to 41.99

 

Dying Light (PS4) 41.99 to 29.39

Watch Dogs (PS4) 15.79 to 11.05

Destiny (PS4) 28.49 to 19.94

Dragon Age Inquisition (PS4) 41.99 to 29.29

 

Destiny (XB1) 29.99 to 20.99

Watch Dogs (XB1) 16.79 to 11.75

If your Target stores' prices don't match target.com's, get them to price match that first. 

People have also had varying degrees of luck PM'ing other stores prices, but generally you're more likely to get a pricematch through AND use a promo % off by matching to Target.com.  

 

A successful approach from past $1 pre order Card deals has been get a price match to the game but hold onto your pre order card until the very end of the transaction.  Buy a few items of filler that you need anyway, and when the cashier is finished ringing your items THEN produce the pre order card.  Just hand it to them to scan it and ring you up - don't feel like you need to tell them the pre order card should give you a discount.   It should apply the 30% discount automatically, even on top of a price match.  YMMV of course

 

 

from Wickedgamer1:

I picked up watch dogs PS4 yesterday at long last for 12 and change after I had them PM their own site. Showed 29.xx in store "on sale" but 15.xx on the site, and the guy tried to give me the excuse "oh that price is when you pre order a game too", so I had to kindly explain what 30% of 29.99 was, and he ended up PMing and using a battlefront reserve card.

If you want to go one step further into the CheapHole with this promotion, SIgn up to GYFT and use their promotional $5 off any $15+ gift card to buy a $25 Target Card for $20 and save another $5 this way.  I couldn't find a way to buy 2 $10 Target gift cards so I had to do this to get the promo to work).  People have also had success doing this multiple times by creating new accounts with different emails and using different forms of payment.  YMMV on this, too.

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

there's a couple more discounted games, but the listed ones are the decent ones I think.

 

 

also, the weekly ad, when viewed on Target's website, reads:

 

Select titles when you reserve any game for $1

30% off

• Titles shown and more. Quantities limited; no rain checks.

 

So you can possibly get 30% of other games not listed. Let me know if you can!
