The very first deal on PlayStation 5 Pro has arrived folks and we certainly didn’t expect to see a chance to save $50 or more on the brand new pro-grade machine this soon. While this isn’t a straight up cash deal, you really don’t have to run through very many hoops to score it at all. Combining the Target gift card promotion we spotted previously in its latest 44-page holiday ad, you can land $50 off a $500 gift card and then use that gift card to score what is effectively the best price ever on PS5 Pro. Head below for a closer look at how to make this happen.
First deal ever on PlayStation 5 Pro
Again, we aren’t talking about a straight up cash discount on the actual PS5 Pro listing at Target, but you can leverage the gift card promotion, which is a solid one in and of itself anyway, to drop $50 off the cost of PlayStation 5 Pro consoles. Considering how pricey Sony’s high-end console actually is, any title bit counts here.
Firstly, let’s talk about the now live Target gift card promotion. It is offering 10% off all Target gift cards right now. That means you can score all denominations from $10 up to $500 at 10% off. That also means you can score the $500 card for $450 right now…I think you see where I’m going with this.

So if you go score the $500 Target gift card while it’s 10% off – you are effectively just trading $450 for $500 in Target money here. You can then take that $500 Target money to put up against the regularly $699.99 PlayStation 5 Pro.
…And you might want to get a move on if you’re interested, the actual listing for the PS5 Pro might go out of stock at anytime.

Another thing to keep in mind here is how you opt for the gift card delivery. You will want to choose the email or text option on the gift card listing page to ensure you get the gift card as soon as possible.
The gift card promotion is only live for today and tomorrow, and you will need to be a Target Circle member to score the gift card discount – you can login or create a FREE Target Circle account at any time right here.
Just so we are clear here, here’s what you need to do to make this deal happen:
- Login to a FREE Target Circle account (sign up here)
- Score a $500 Target Gift Card at $450
- Navigate to the PS5 Pro listing and add to cart
- And then apply the $500 Target credit against your purchase
- This will effectively drop the price of the PS5 Pro to $650
