Every College Girl Needs a Target Debit Card

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UNL chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

Let me start off by saying that this post is not in any way, shape, or form, sponsored by Target. I am just a normal college girl who loves everything about Target (it even smells good in there – haha!).

I was recently informed by a cashier while checking out about Target’s recent addition of the debit card system. I politely took the pamphlet and forgot about the whole thing for a while. About a month later, I saw the saw pamphlet sitting on my desk and decided to research it a bit more… I was SOLD! Here’s why:

  • The Target Debit card connects to your regular checking account. That’s right, no separate account needed, no weird catches, your account will just have the two cards connected to it.
  • You get 5% off of your entire purchase every time you are at Target. You can have coupons, use cartwheel, buy sale items, whatever. The 5% off will still be taken off at the end. I know that might not seem like all that much, but if you go to Target near as much as I do, those savings will really add up!
  • As an added bonus, you get that same 5% off at the Starbucks and food courts located in the stores (!!!) As if you needed an extra reason to get a latte, am I right?
  • Since this debit card technically counts as a “Red Card” you get special perks such as extended returns in-store or online and free two-day shipping on their website! Amazing!

 

As I said before, this is just a helpful hint to all my fellow Target-lovers out there. I went through the process to get the card, and I have never looked back. Instead, I am spreading the word about what an awesome deal this really is!
