Payment for my trip

I'm curious, how do you use both the Zen Target card and the Red card.

You set your default payment to the Red Card and it deducts the 5%, then you enter your gift card as form of payment and finalize the transaction. Just know, going into it, when you use any of the gift card resellers you assume a risk that the card may be empty, paid for with a stolen credit card (newest scam), etc. While many report no issues, there are many that report issues. I'm not familiar with GCZen personally but recommend you do your homework and read the reviews before purchasing.

Good point. I can say about GCZ from personal use that they guarantee the displayed rate. If you get a card that's empty or the wrong amount you tell them and they refund, no questions asked. Of the couple hundred we've bought over time maybe four had an issue.

And then you'll have dozens of Disney gift cards that you'll have to enter into an email (my wife keyed the numbers and I double checked them as she went along) to your poor travel agent (we used a TA) who will then herself have to turn around and enter for your payment. I kept telling myself the whole time, "We're saving lots of money, we're saving lots of money..." And the TA was a really good sport about it.

You can also create a Disney Vacation account where you can enter the gift cards as you get them and when it is time to pay for your cruise or vacation, you call and have it transferred. As a bonus, for every $1000 you put into the account, you get another $20 Disney gift card mailed to you.
This means the TA does not need to enter them. At least with a cruise,(I don't have experience with a Disney World vacation doing this), you are allowed to make payment this way even if using a TA.

It appears perhaps target has caught onto the stacking of discounts as the disney gift cards are now only available to purchase on store.

Checked just now, they appear to still be available on the web.

When I look it says in-store purchase only, that's weird.

My bad. That's what it is showing here now too.

So, you don't get the discount if you buy them in the store?

Interesting....

Looking at the Red Card information on the website, it now says that the 5% discount does not apply to "Any prepaid card or gift card purchased on Target.com"

I wonder if it still works in store?
