    Good price and can even claim GST

  • AntMan76 on 03/08/2012 - 19:24

    And for anyone with a Woolies staff card, go to Big W for the price match and get an extra 5% off. http://www.bigw.com.au/help/BIGWMissionandvaluesContent#1

    Same applies if you have discounted Wish Gift Cards.

    • AssociatedAlexD @ Target Australia on 03/08/2012 - 21:06

      Remember, Target will also have iPad accessories at 15% off with the purchase, which won't be advertised separately!

    • tinx on 03/08/2012 - 21:50

      i don't think you can use woolies staff card after price match.
      it's in the policy.

      that's what masters employee told me when i tried to use the card.

      • AntMan76 on 03/08/2012 - 22:26

        I got a Big W price match on a discounted Canon printer (at OW) about a month back and then used the discount on top. The irony of it was that OW had reduced their price because Big W had it on sale, but the Big W sale had ended the day before lol

  • ihuangyu on 03/08/2012 - 19:39

    Could Coles staff get extra 5% off?

    • AssociatedAlexD @ Target Australia on 03/08/2012 - 19:41
      +4

      Yes, your Coles for You card entitles you to your regular 5% off on top of the already discounted price.

      • Dularn on 03/08/2012 - 20:32

        EDIT: Looks like the double discount is on clothing only.

        • AssociatedAlexD @ Target Australia on 03/08/2012 - 20:56

          That is correct.
          The 5% team member discount + the 5% off equate to around 9.75% off Target's already discounted price, though …

      • Ahan on 04/08/2012 - 09:16

        This is pretty good. I remembered when the new ipad was launched, Staff card happened to have 10% discount. That was awesome. I bought two on that day.

    ahh, why is the iPad 2 cheaper than the iPad?

    • prisonerzero on 03/08/2012 - 19:50
      +4

      The 'iPad' is the 'new iPad' aka 'iPad 3'. The original iPad (AFAIK) has been discontinued.

      • Rodgort on 03/08/2012 - 19:52
        +6

        Well that's stupid. Apple should of just called it the iPad 3.

        • mboy on 03/08/2012 - 20:33
          +5

          I think the reason behind discontinuing the number in the name is because if they keep releasing one every year (which.. they will), eventually they're going to be naming one iPad 14.

      because the ipad is newer than the ipad 2?

    is this for online store only or instore aswell?

    • neonlight on 03/08/2012 - 20:42

      Yea I was wondering too. Apparently you have secure to your order online then pickup….

      So is this discount online only Sunday then pick up?

      This is for the online store, as well as the 71 stores that stock iPad.

      • crazycat on 03/08/2012 - 20:59

        where can we see which target stores stock ipad?

        does this deal start at midnight tonight online?

        • AssociatedAlexD @ Target Australia on 03/08/2012 - 21:03

          The deal will appear as a deal of the day, I believe.
          I'm not sure when it will become active online, but stores open at 9am, so if you get to a store, you could get it in your hands without the wait!

    When I click on the link I ca't see any mention of 5% of the new iPad.
    Where is it because I want to show it to woolies staff to get a further 5% off with wish cards.

    • AssociatedAlexD @ Target Australia on 03/08/2012 - 21:04

      The link is not yet active, as the deal is for the 4th only.

      • AssociatedAlexD @ Target Australia on 03/08/2012 - 21:08

        The promotion will be visible tomorrow when stores are open for price matching.

      Where is it because I want to show it to woolies staff to get a further 5% off with wish cards.

      How do you get further 5% discount with Woolies? Target is subsidiary of Wesfarmers. Wish cards not valid with Wesfarmers stores (eg. Target), only Woolworths Limited stores.

      Or you mean price match with BIG W or Dick Smith?

      you have very little chance for refund as you already opened the product. you may get refund if the product is unopened and within 30 days. well ! please don't lose your sleep over 5% off. i am sure you will score more bargains within Ozbargain community in near future. have a nice day.

    • colinsi on 04/08/2012 - 08:01

      A document in detail page reads,

      Can I have my iPad delivered directly to my address?
      Unfortunately, we can only deliver iPads to a Target or Target Country store address and not to your
      home. After your order has been placed, you’ll receive a call from our Online Support Team to
      nominate and confirm the store where you’d like to arrange collection.

      So I guess $1 delivery doesn't apply to this item.

      Just ordered one and pick up in Castle Hill, waiting for the confirm email.

          You don't need an credit card to make an iTunes account. Just go to iTunes store, look for free games and download it, it will than ask for you to create an account. It shouldn't ask for credit card like that. Not for me anyway. Try it.

To sick to put up a fight so I went target n put the highest model with case on lay-by!! Thanks whoever posted this for my early birthday present :D

  • darrylxu on 04/08/2012 - 18:06

    I just came back from the good guys in Glendalough. They were quite nice to make price match with target where I couldn't find any stock in Perth. Took two 32Gb white wifi in 595 each, nice deal!

    PS，I also went to bigW and DSE at first, BigW refused to match the price as they said this is just a one day sale rether a regular sale price; and DSE said the price is over their cost~ So if u guys in WA still want to catch this promotion like me…try the good guys, they tend to close at 5:00.

    • ca6leguy on 05/08/2012 - 08:23

      I doubt it's going to happen. If it does, all the owners of the existing "faulty" iPads would demand for a replacement. Did you see an "upgrade" to the "faulty" iPhone 4 antenna? Not till iPhone 5.

      • camelgrass on 05/08/2012 - 23:39

        1 LEDs instead of 2 LEDs
        Lighter
        Less Heat
        New Sharp Display

        How would any of that be considered "faulty"?

        You can't demand a replacement just because an upgraded version is released. That's absurd.

        • ca6leguy on 06/08/2012 - 08:01

          Less Heat

          Been heaps of complain about overheating.

        • camelgrass on 08/08/2012 - 08:24

          If it's "overheating" and affects operation of device then yes that is fault but higher than expected heat on case after playing 3D games etc isn't a fault as such.

          I don't think most retailers will give you a refund for a perfectly working device just because it can get a little hot after intensive use.

    • MATTDAMON on 05/08/2012 - 11:31

        Thanks for the information. It seems silly that they won't post the item to someones home address after they have already paid for it. I feel sorry for the people who don't have a target close to their home.

  • sarbear on 08/08/2012 - 07:06

    I called and asked what was the go with delivery and she said "for security reason we can't deliver to your home". So the money i saved buying the ipad while on special i now have to use that money to pay for fuel to get to the closest Target which is 45 minutes away:(

    • ca6leguy on 08/08/2012 - 08:23

      I'm sure you have read the text highlighted in bold about item must be collected in store but still went ahead with the purchase because the deal was too good to be missed.

      I am going to use my staff discount card and get myself a cheap iPad tomorrow.

      Now you come here and complain about having to spend on fuel to collect your iPad. Totally unbelievable.
