Fire up some savings

As it has become more challenging for retailers to demonstrate value on leading brands, one of Target’s favorite strategies is the $5-gift-card offer when shoppers purchase two or more featured items. While it’s a nice bonus to get $5 for free on items shoppers purchase regularly, this week’s “wow” item is a Brinkman-brand gas grill featured in the retailer’s circular. Available in red or stainless steel, shoppers can receive a $100 gift card for purchasing the $329 product with free assembly. The allure of $100 makes the prospect of purchasing the grill much more compelling.
