Target tutorial

[Dancing Lotus]

I think I would like to share some of my shoping tips with those who are interested. I will do a turorial on Target, walgreens, and cvs. This wont be new news to some of you but maybe afew of our newer members could benefit from it.


Target

Did you know that Target will accept both manufactor and store coupons combined? This is called piggy backing and its one of the best ways to get free or supper cheap stuff.

Target has a coupon link on their sight and it is updated every other week. You can print as many as you like. They have both Target and Supertarget coupons but they can be used at either one. Regular Target will take supertarget coupons. There is no offical limit on how many coupons you can use at one time but your store does have the right to impose a limit if they like.

Those coupons do have an exp. date so don't print them untill you are ready to use them. And often those items that they offer a store coupon on will go on sale, thats what you are waiting for.

NOw once an item that has a store coupon goes on sale you want to look at your manufactor coupons and match them up. NOW you have your super bargains.


Curently you can get Kellogs frosted flakes for only .59 by piggy backing. The target sight has a kellogs coupon and the Novemember 4 th paper had a coupon.



Want free stuff?

Trail sizes are a great way to get free stuff at Target. IF you read your coupons carefully any of them that say "good on any size" you can use to buy trial size items and most often get them for free.

Try these two
In the novemeber 18th paper there is a 1.50 coupon for Purrell hand sanitzer. The trail size bottle is only 1.49. Free

In the September 30th paper there is a 1.00 off st.ives lotion coupon. The trial size bottle is 1.00. Free

Now do you see why you should never toss out a coupon? Even if you think you wont use it you never know when it might mean getting something for free. And if its something you can't use you can dontate it or use it to make gift baskets.

I will do my best to answer any additional questions, but remember I am not a Targer employee.

Cool, thanks. I'm excited for the CVS tutorial because I've tried so many times to get in on the good deals and find I am NOT saving money.

YOu can look for my cvs tutorial tomarrow, its a lot more work then any other store so I have to put it together before I type it out. The thing with cvs is if you are spending more then a few cents after your first visit then you are doing something wrong.
