You had to talk to people about this? At my store, I have almost never seen anyone let anyone else use their cards. Whether the stuff they buy for others is a gift or not (a distinction which is too fuzzy to mean anything in real life, since we generally receive some form of reimbursement for...

I do not understand why anyone asks questions about who can use the discount. It is not difficult. As the team member, buy the stuff yourself with cash or your card/check.

It is easy to have your parents enjoy the benefits nonetheless. Buy the stuff your parents ask you for with cash or your own check or Red Card. If reimbursement happens before or after the fact, neither the cash register reports nor cameras would show any evidence.

To all others with a similar question: Buy the stuff your parent wants with cash, or your own check or red card. If reimbursement happens before or after the fact, neither the cash register reports or cameras would show any evidence.

I confirmed with my GSTL that is not important to fill out the whole check. They can skip the word amount portion. Though, the guest must sign it. At least at my store, all checks clear as ACH transactions. The amount debited from the account is the amount the cashier types in prior to feeding...

You are complaining about check writing? seriously? Arguing over prices, coupons, which items to give back due to insufficient cash, etc. waste far more time. Moreover, card declines cause no less trouble than check declines. I think many who have used plastic all their lives are phobic of...

I feel exactly that way about both my bank account and target credit card statement (I have both debit and credit; I was immediately approved for the debit first and later immediately approved for the credit). I have found that both have about a 3 day lag time before posting to their respective...

I am fascinated/mystified by the details of how the two systems and their interplay or lack thereof. Once, a guest tried to make purchase with her new Target check card of nearly $120 and asked for $40 cash back. It was declined. I wondered if the purchase amount was too large for the first...

You are not making sense. This is quite normal. As long as the team member pays at the register, that is that. If any reimbursement happens before or after the fact, neither the cash register reports nor the cameras would show any evidence.

"AP" is not a meaningful answer. How did assets protection find out? Did the team members talk about it? Did they accept repayment in the store? It seems probable that there are many times as many team members who have illicitly accepted repayment as those who got caught.

Sometimes, "best practice" deserves to be mocked, not defended. No "correction" is applicable here. I intended to refer directly to Annie's assertions, not anything sinlesslave posted. I stand by by comments and strong language.

Well, if Target is worried about losing money, it should simply place an annual limit on the discount. Target should just forget the various rules about who is allowed to use it, buying for others who are repaying, etc. Those rules are not even enforceable. For example, Target Annie claimed...
