This is a big one. If you are a minor your parents are not able to use your discount either. I used to have to shut down parents who were so excited that their child had got a job at target to use their discount. Sorry but that's not how it works. In order to use your discount the person using it has to be YOUR dependent, so a spouse or a child who you still claim on your taxes.Also only your kid/spouse can use your card. No moms,dads,aunt,uncle and siblings. You have be present if they are using the discount.
Been a tm for more than 20 years. My children often did my shopping for me and nobody ever said I had to be present. Is this new or did nobody care? (They used my redcard to pay, so I was paying.)You not only have to be present but technically you have to be paying for the merchandise yourself.
More than likely no one cares, as no one really would if any of the other rules were broken. I assume they are your adult children? If they are filed as dependents they are able to shop for you and use your discount.Been a tm for more than 20 years.

No. Adult children do not qualify as dependents.More than likely no one cares, as no one really would if any of the other rules were broken. I assume they are your adult children? If they are filed as dependents they are able to shop for you and use your discount.
Edit: not that anyone doesn't care because I'm sure corporate would but I meant a TM more than likely doesn't even know or wouldn't turn you in.
Yeah given the fact they used your Red Card in your name with your discount it probably never sent any red flags for AP to look into. That being said if it was for you and you were paying you probably were in the clear anyway.Been a tm for more than 20 years.

Only people ive ever seen get caught are people giving their card to random friends and their friends not understanding they cant use their random credit or debit card in their name to pay for stuff.
Buying hot items and posting on social media for sale or on eBay where your coworkers can see will get you busted and fired.
