I just checked. It did save me about $10 in taxes.In this case you end up paying less sales tax right? Because the item is discounted by $50, and there is no tax on a gift card. (So the price isn’t exactly the same.)
I ordered the Apple TV several hours ago and have not received the gift card. it says it should only take an hour. Order still showing processing.How long does it take to receive the gift card?
I don’t know why anyone is paying tax for gift cards. I have never been charged for taxes on a gift card from any retailer ever.In this case you end up paying less sales tax right? Because the item is discounted by $50, and there is no tax on a gift card. (So the price isn’t exactly the same.)

I ordered with the Apple card about six hours ago and stuck in processing.Received gift card in less than hour. Already redeemed. I’ll let apple hold it a few days though. No desire to deal with Black Friday nutjobs.

this is a little silly - i bought 2 ipad accessories yesterday and now i can't buy the 4-pack of airtags at all, because i've exceeded the gift card limit for the promo.
as far as i can tell there's no way to decline the promo gift card, so i just can't buy the airtags until the black friday promotion ends.
or why not just have a family member or friend order it with their Apple acct?![]()
So your paying sales tax on the gift card? but your not buying the gift card are you? because I was under the impression the gift card is just that, Apple giving you a gift for purchasing a product of theirs thus no sales tax should be applied, correct?
Be careful how you redeem the gift card. I got the email today, clicked on "Redeem" thinking I would get the code, but doing that caused the gift card to be added to my iTunes/App Store account. So now I'm stuck with $50 there that I wanted o use on hardware.
I got it figured out. It’s because I have two Apple IDs and I didn’t sign out of the wrong when when I did it. If only I could merge them…This account appears when you purchase anything online.
