Target has GREAT store coupons! Their coupons can be found on Target’s site HERE, there are no print limits!! Older Target store coupons are stored at the Target Coupon Generator HERE, you have to join this site to be able to print, but it’s totally free!
Target Policy allows 1 store coupon AND 1 manufacturer coupon to be used on the same product!
How do you know the difference between a store and manufacturer coupon?
Look for the top of the coupon to read either: Manufacturer’s coupon or Target coupon.
Examples of “stacking” a store and manufacturer coupon:
I can use a $0.50/1 Target coupon
AND a $1.00/1 manufacturer coupon (from newspaper, mail or printable)
for a total savings of $1.50 on 1 product.
-or-
I can use 2- $1.00/1 Target Coupons
AND 1- $0.50/2 manufacturer coupon (from newspaper, mail or printable)
for a total savings of $1.25 on 1 product, when you buy 2.
- Target often runs “Gift Card Promos“. Example: Buy 2 of the following products and receive a $5 gift card. When you use your coupons, these Gift Card promos make for some cheap or free items, after you factor gift card savings. Sometimes we have what we call a “moneymaker”, when the amount you spend out of pocket (OOP) is less than the amount of the gift card.
Example Moneymaker Scenario:
Buy 2 Softsoap Ensembles hand soap $6.00 each
*Promo: Buy 2 Softsoap Ensembles, receive a $5 gift card*
Use 2 manufacturer coupons $2.00/1
Use 2 Target Coupons $2.00/1
Total Out of Pocket: $4.00, but you receive a $5.00 gift card
Final Price: $1.00 Moneymaker, when factoring GC savings
Take note that to confirm that a product is participating in a gift card promo, simply use one of the red you-scan machines at the end of an aisle. The screen will show you the price and the accompanying promo. I like to save my gift cards from one week and use them on the next week’s promos, that is if I don’t spend them in Target’s to-die-for “home section”!
Target has an extensive trial size section comprised of items usually marked around $1.00. Many coupons exclude trial size, or specify an minimum size, but some do not. If you read your coupons carefully, you will be able to get many free trial size items from Target.
It’s important to share a possible scenario here:
Dove Trial Size Bar Soap: $0.97
$1.00/1 Manufacturer Coupon
Final Price: FREE
if you have a $1.00 off 1 dove coupon that doesn’t exclude trial size and you have a dove soap bar for $0.97, when you get to checkout and the cashier scans your soap and coupon, the register is going to beap- indicating there is a problem. This is because your coupon exceeded the amount of the item sold. {Target has a bad reputation for refusing your coupon at this point, but that is wrong!} Target Policy states that the coupon shall be adjusted down to the price of the item. The cashier will need to manually enter in $0.97 off instead of scanning the $1.00 off coupon, so as not to actually “pay” you to buy the item.
- Target is also famous for their orange clearance stickers. Find items on end caps clearanced in half, pair that with your coupons and get more Krazy deals!
