Target's Take Charge of Education links your Target REDCard to a school of your choice. Every time you use your Target RedCard it gives 1% of your total back to the school while also giving you 5% savings. In August 2012, Target gave $138.65 to Whitney. This was all because 12 people signed up for a REDCard and linked it to Whitney. Can you imagine the impact if there were 12 more families that also linked their Target RedCard to Whitney?
Don't have a Target REDCard or you choose not to use a credit card? No problem. Target has two programs to choose from, Target REDCard Credit and Debit. All you need to do is link your checking account number to the Target REDCard and Target will send you a REDCard Debit card to use at Target.
The Target REDCard program is awesome for its work with schools in the community but it's even more awesome for the card holder. Not only do you get 5% off your total purchase, you get free shipping from the website, 30 extra days to make returns and one of the best perks I just found out about...drumroll...Target lets RedCard holders shop 1 day early for Black Friday deals. Instead of standing in line at 4am with everybody else, Target makes the list of deals available for RedCard holders on Wednesday November 21. Wednesday REDcard holders are given 20 items they can early shop for from Target.com. I don't know what the deals are but with free shipping included in the REDcard deal you have nothing to lose but a little internet shopping time by checking out the deals early.
Do you want to score even more money for the school? Use the Target link on this page and the link will send the school an additional 5%. That comes out to 5% savings for you and 6% cash for the school.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO to get the most savings is: make sure your Target REDcard is registered to give to Whitney and use the Target sites on this Blog.
Happy Hunting!
