So, much to my horror, I discovered the other day that you can no longer purchase Disney gift cards from Target with a Target gift card.\u00a0 I tried two different orders and both got canceled right away.\u00a0 I was shocked, because it had always worked before.\u00a0 In fact, it was the primary method we used to reduce the costs of our Disney trips.<\/p>\n

After a bit of research, it appears that you can take your Target gift cards into Target and buy Disney gift cards with them, but you miss out on the 5% off.\u00a0 Or, you can buy them with your Target Red Card and get 5% off, but no discounts from buying that Target gift card.<\/p>\n
