The holiday season is about giving and for some of us the easiest way to give is to pick up a gift card, but if you want to get the most bang for your buck then its important where you buy the card.

For example, this Sunday Target is taking 10 percent off $100 gift cards. That means you pay $90 for a $100 gift card.

That's one of the tricks. You have to buy at the store you’re wanting a gift card for. You can’t go to any random rack to get the great deals.

Other retailers offering amazing deals like Target are Applebee’s, Chili’s and Cold Stone Creamery.

Applebee’s is offering a $10 bonus card when you purchase a $50 gift card.

If you buy a gift card at Chili’s for $50 you get a $10 bonus card.

If you can’t make it to the actual store, places like Cold Stone Creamery are offering deals online, like a $5 bonus card for a $30 e-gift card.

Remember like everything else, read the fine print and all the details that go along with it.
