Woman buys $100 Home Depot gift card at Target. Then she allegedly discovers it has $0 balance: ‘What customers are supposed to do’

A woman says Target refused to refund her after she purchased a $100 Home Depot gift card. Someone redeemed the card months before she bought it. She now questions who is responsible when a gift card has no value at the time of purchase. In a video shared on social media, the woman, whose identity and location remain unclear, said she purchased the Home Depot gift card from Target on July 9, 2026, as a gift for clients.

She then said in the post that the recipients opened the package in front of a Home Depot cashier, scratched off the PIN, and discovered the card had a $0 balance. According to the woman, Home Depot employees checked the card’s transaction history and confirmed its purchase in October 2025. They then gave her a November 2025 redemption date.
