Guru’s Wrap-up
Target Circle Bonuses are usually worth activating, especially if the spending requirement aligns with purchases you were already planning to make. The best offers can effectively provide an extra 10%-20% return on your Target spending, and they stack nicely with other Target promotions.
Before making a purchase, check your account to see if you’ve been targeted. If you have multiple Target accounts in your household, compare offers to see which one gets you the best value.
As always, avoid spending extra just to earn the reward. The best bonuses are the ones you can complete naturally through your normal shopping.
