Three separate orders. No preorders past the end date.

Didn’t realize I had a Circle offer: 3 purchases of $45, get $15. I placed an order that qualifies a few minutes before activating it; anyone have experience with that scenario and know if I’ll get credit for the order since it will ship after I activated or will I need to cancel and re-order?

Cancel and reapply.

[Gold Ranger]

Nope, didn't activate it. :'(

Of course after I make several purchases for the sale, they end up giving me a spend $50 get $10 off through Circle. I even made a purchase just a few hours before I got the coupon. Hope I find more stuff to buy before week's end.

It's possible that orders made the same day or even within 24 might qualify since I'm not sure if any or all of the order time, shipping time, time with final charge post are the critical piece.

If all the items are still in stocks you might have a window to cancel/reorder or possible CSR might be able to help out -- though I'm betting that might be difficult since they might not be able to see all your acct info

Was at my local Target and took a peek in the movie section. This is the new release/popular titles display:



And this is the movie aisle:



The endcaps in front of the checkout stands are just as bad.

My local stores have the same setup at the moment and most titles still have inventory especially for this week’s B2G1 promo. The only spot with noticeably open racks is the front lanes island by self-checkout, but those always seem to be poorly stocked for whatever reason.

Got my reward!

I got that offer as well. Spend $50 and save $10 in store only.

That's good - all we can hope for at this point is that Target recognizes there remains some demand for movies/shows on disc and will continue to carry them at-store and online.

No, this is bad. I'm guessing a lot of stuff that had been collecting dust for months was removed and not replaced with anything. Customers weren't buying it up.

The store I was in yesterday had a couple sorta well-stocked rows (well more like one and a half maybe), not much of a selection though, but what else is new. Also the 4-sided thingy in front of those rows, was pretty full, except for the front-facing side which was empty and had something else in front of it (coulda been a snacks display, didn't waste too many memory cells registering what it was apparently).

Was more trying to find where the magazine rack ended up (I rarely look for such things any more, but thought I'd give it a shot), turns out they were in each check out aisle, same small really bad selection of magazines in each one. You'd think with books being a thing now there would still be somewhat of a selection. (Went through the same exercise at nearby grocery store, and walmart, similar sad states of affairs. Next stop will be to see what's left at b&n; that's about the only somewhat nearby store left I can think of that has any, but it's still a significant distance away so left for another day.)

So strange their offers are different for everybody. Mine is online or in-store.

[gudemameshiba]

I couldn't figure out why my "Make 2 qualifying purchases of $120 or more to earn a $20 reward in Target Circle earnings" bonus took so long after Sunday morning to register, and then I remembered that Target only does a pre-authorization at the time of order and then charges as items ship, and then once $120 worth from each order shipped, there it was.

[Gold Ranger]

My closest Target has movies up by the registers and three 3-foot shelves in electronics and that's it, it's a fairly large store.

[Jennifer Lawrence Fan]

Mine has them by the cash registers. A small section in electronics and a saw 3 sided display by the snacks/groceries.

Mine doesn’t sell movies at all.

Can confirm there is definitely a window of eligibility. My order I placed before activating the offer shipped today and shows as having fulfilled one of my required purchases.
