Someone in the previous post mentioned that if you wanted something that is not available for in-store pick-up, that you could order something that is and exchange it towards the item you wanted and still keep the credit. Can anyone verify that this will work?

optical said:   How about combining w/ AMEX? Still on?Yep -- you can combine it with the $20 off $200 AMEX Sync promo (Facebook/Twitter/online AMEX account) and also the $50 off $100 Xbox Halo AMEX Sync promo if you have that activated

The credit is emailed 1 day after you pick up the item in store. It is not stated on the receipt that you got the credit. Once you receive the email with the credit you can print it out and buy a giftcard in store if you want to preserve the credit past January. I have successfully combined with AMEX $20 off $200. I believe offer is still valid for AMEX.

FYI. My store had no idea the promotion was even running. Seems like an online/corporate deal the stores weren't notified about.

Great idea. I don't think it's fair for them to put an expiration date on the GC... they didn't even bother to extend the expiration date from the Cyber Monday deal.

yes, it does quality. That is what I did and I got the crredit.

Mulox said:   What are the excluded items? Can we purchase Gift Cards on this? I believe the only restriction is that you have to order with "store pickup". They unfortunately do not sell gift cards with store pickup.

EDIT: Oh, I guess it also says, "Eligible items: TV & Home Theater, Computers, Tablets & E-Readers, Video Games, Cameras & Camcorders, Mobile Phones, iPod & MP3 Players, Car & GPS, Appliances, Home, Movies & TV Shows, Music, Musical Instruments, Health & Fitness". Pretty broad categories, but I guess if you find something outside that, it might not work.

Thanks OP

thats what I am wondering too; plus get them to price match to Radio Shack $279.99 iphone

well target and RS in my area only carry 16gb versions. thus making getting a pricematch for 32gb version "impossible?" however p/u at store $25 plus iphone5 $25 should still work presumably.

did anyone get iphone 5 32gb pricematched? I read targets and rs were doing $20 off all models.

I tried to pick up 5 phone cards at exactly 250 and paid with gift cards. This was on Saturday but no e-mail so far.

I ordered a desktop on Friday early morning (12/7) and I still haven't received an email notification for the $25 savings code, but my AMEX credits (Halo 4 $50, Twitter $20) have appeared on my statement.

I still havent recieved my 25.00 savings code for a t.v. purchase i made on 12/6 would you have any info on who i might contact about this.
thanks.
