Target Launches New Loyalty Program So You Can Feel Good About Your Target Runs

Anyone can sign up, not just RedCard holders.

We've all been there. You go to Target with one item on your list, and you leave with a new outfit and a shopping cart full of seasonal products from the grab-and-go section. But what if instead of living with buyer's remorse, you got rewarded for your impulse purchases? Enter "Target Circle."

Targets has launched a new loyalty program just in time for the holidays. Target Circle members can earn one percent on every Target run to redeem later (it adds up, people). You'll also receive personalized "deals and perks," including a birthday surprise (!!). Members also get early access to special sales throughout the year.

The most unique part about this rewards program is members are invited to cast their votes to help direct Target's giving to local nonprofit organizations. So there's a lot of reasons to feel good about your shopping habits. According to Target, Target Circle members are saving more and spending more than guests who are not enrolled. And more than half a million dollars have been donated to local nonprofit organizations to date. It's truly a win win.

The best part? Joining is completely free. If you already have a Target.com account or a Target RedCard, you'll be automatically enrolled in the new program. If you haven't signed up, it's not too late to start racking up rewards with every purchase. Simply enroll on Target.com, apply for a RedCard, or provide your phone number at your local Target store. With the holidays coming up, we could all use a little extra cash to put towards our list. Target Circle is here with your incentive to treat your loved ones and yourself.
