Target Halloween Gift Card

Target stores have just put out a Halloween gift card, themed to the Japanese "Domo" monster, on which they've based their campaign this year.

The card itself is the "Domo".


Unfolding the cardboard holder reveals 4 sheets of static-cling reusable stickers to dress your Domo.


Mummy...
Frankenstein...
Vampire...

Ghost...
Here's the inside without the stickers sheets.


And the rear.


Did I Steal This Gift Card?

The small print on Target gift cards states that they have no value until purchased, require no fee, have no expiration date, and can be kept and reloaded at any time. To someone like me who shops regularly at Target, that translates to "Go ahead and pocket one once in awhile if you like." I suppose I could go through the motion of having the cashier put a couple bucks on it, spend it right away on a pretzel and a Red Bull, then keep the card, but that would just waste every one's time and wouldn't net Target one extra penny.

I have quite a little collection of Target gift cards, but aside from this Halloween Domo one, the only other card in my collection that is even remotely appropriate to showcase on this fright-themed blog is this one...


That's right---see what the world would look like if you were transformed into a fly! Sorry for the blurry scan... the bejeweled eyes of this "fly-vision" card keep it from resting flat on the scanner. Curious how things look in "fly-vision"? Something like this...
