Good to hear. I'll be on board unless Sears M/C throws me some more good 5% or 10% offers by that time.

I got all excited when I saw that DoC article, but looking more closely on the Discover site Q4 adds "Walmart.com" and "target.com". So I take it as online orders only, not in store, which makes sense as Q4 is usually Amazon, which is online only. Dang! Walmart in store is my biggest brick & mortar spend. I do spend more on Walmart.com than Amazon, but in store would have been great.

All the more reason to hit that app next week. Way to go Discover for raising the bar from what seems- no other lender wants to offer. I personally despise Walmart, but with my family situation, it's practically a necessity.

I'm down with Target tho, in case you cared 🤣

Just added it. It was on my app this morning (Android).

Nice catch.
I hadn't planned on apping for the 5% Disco, but would have rethought my plans until the .com was noticed.
I spend... a bit too much at Target, like everyone else, but only IN Target, so I may be safe from an unplanned app later in the year.

Gaaaaaahhh!
Read the terms. It's for amazon.com, Target and Walmart.com.
The terms say it's on-line for Amazon and Walmart. Read further and Target is for physical locations and on-line. Whew!
I never shop Target on-line, so I'm glad they allow physical locations for Target. I despise Walmart so it doesn't matter with them either way.

LOL, so I'm not the only one who hates Walmart? Smiley LOL

 

I'm glad they've added the in-store Target category. Looks like my REDcard will be stuck in the wallet in Q4 as I attempt to maximize double cashback with Disco!

What’s that? Black Friday shopping open to Walmart.com and Target too? Yes please! 

 

Heart Disco!

Huh, that’s interesting. PayPal terms on the app specifically say you can use it for Friends and Family payments — I would have thought that was always a cash advance on a credit card? That basically means I can earn 5% back on my rent all three months!
