Target is getting more aggressive on it's video game pre-orders and offering a great deal on its in-store video game reservations. Today Target announced that it would start a new video game reservation program, to begin this weekend, Sunday, April 19th. Upcoming video game releases can be reserved when you purchase a $1 Target Reservation Card, which features a design based on the game. Although it will cost you $1 to purchase the reservation card, upon returning to purchase the game you will get a $5 Target GiftCard. It's good towards a future purchase. So it comes out to a $4 savings.

Details from Target:
"Beginning April 19, Target guests can purchase a collectible reservation card, only in stores, for $1. When they bring the reservation card back within seven days of release to purchase their game, they will receive a $5 Target GiftCard to put toward a future purchase.

“We’ve created a reservation guarantee that ensures guests will get their hands on popular games the day they are released, and a $5 GiftCard upon purchase adds even more value,” said Mark Schindele, senior vice president, Target. “We are constantly striving to make sure our guests find everything they need to work, live and play all in one convenient and simplified shopping experience.”

Target will offer this deal on select games, the first of which include Punch-Out!! (Wii), EA Sports Active (Wii), Ghostbusters (multi-platform), Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings (Wii), and UFC 2009 Undisputed (multi-platform). It's a great way to save a few dollars on your video game purchases and makes Target a more enticing to place a pre-order at, rather than other retailers such as GameStop. It also makes sure that Target gets you to return to complete the purchase.
