Target's RedCard is a significant advantage they've built over all their competitors. They don't have to pay the fees, customers get a discount, and they get easy access to the data on your purchases. I'm surprised more retailers don't do it.

When credit cards first started you would have one per store only usable in that same store. (Also note how gift cards/stored value cards/"prepaid credit" cards recently seem to be following a similar trajectory. It is somewhat fascinating.)
