In other deals, Target this week has App Store and iTunes gift cards on sale with its traditional buy one, get one 20 percent off discount. While not as good as the more common 15 percent discounts for a single card, this is one of the only online iTunes gift card sales going on right now, so it could be a good opportunity to add some credit to your iTunes account.

The offer is valid on $15, $25, $50, and $100 iTunes cards, which will be delivered via email. The 20 percent discount will be applied to the lower priced item, so multiple price tiers can be added at once, and after two cards are placed in your cart you'll notice the discount. As usual, Target REDcard members can save an additional 5 percent in the sale.

We've rounded up a few examples of the savings you can net with Target's new offer below:

  • 2x $15 iTunes gift cards: $27, down from $30

I did this. I got 2 $100 cards online from them for $171 with my target card. Email delivery.
Not sure if Costco still has it, but last week I bought $100 iTunes for $85 in the warehouse. It was a pack of 4 $25 cards -- 15% off.
