Yesterday I shopped at my local Target (Hilliard-Rome Rd in Hilliard OH) and was informed that they are now interpreting the fine print on MQ’s “one coupon per purchase” to mean that you can only use one of the MQ’s per ORDER. So, I was unable to use the Arm & Hammer deal with 2 MQs and get the $5 gc. Likewise, I was unable to do the Happy Baby food pouch Q stack. I have emailed Target corporate about this to get clarification, but haven’t heard back yet. I was told by the cashier and someone else working the cashier area that they couldn’t do it because I would be “cheating” and because it was in violation of the manufacturer’s coupon policies. I hope Proctor & Gamble knows this … you would never be able to buy a bottle of Dawn and some Bounty paper towls and use coupons on the same order, under this new policy. This is totally new to me, and I just shopped there last week using multiple MQ’s for several items. Does anyone have any guidance on this?
@Martha. I get those coupons from the Catalina about once a month or so now. Sometimes they’re $10, sometimes they are $15.
On the Arm and Hammer Cat Litter– at my Target there were peelies on the Box for a MIR for $8 that’s valid only on the 28 lb box that’s on sale for $10.89. So if you print a $1/1 coupon from the Arm and Hammer website, your OOP would be $9.89 and then you’d submit for the $8 MIR, which would make your final cost $1.89 for the 28lb box. I’m just wondering if you can submit the $8 MIR and the try me free MIR on the 20lb box. Since they are 2 different sizes and 2 different rebates, I’m thinking that would be OK?? If so, that would mean 48 pounds of clumping cat litter for $1.89. Does anyone know if I can submit for both the $8 MIR AND the try me free (20lb) MIR. Hmmm..
VB, depends on the store, how much they have on hand, profitability & location….depts usually do their markdowns on certain days
@ Kerry… THANK YOU!!
@Kerry…thanks: )
The Bullseye Bodega products are a total ripoff in my opinion!!!! Lately, Target must think that we are idiots. Their grocery prices are almost as high as convenience stores!!! If it’s not on sale, you are paying too much at Target!!
@Danielle- no its a promtion- AND you can use a Q- so if you use the coupon depending on where you live- you will get 2 free skinny cow- or if you have fruit bars- free fruit bars & a free skinny cow wyb 6 lean cusisine. hth
@Kristi- no i doubt it very highly- ct size way too high i believe
There is a 3.50 Bullseye Bogega coupon for Huggies Pullups 56-72 count. Do you know if this is a match for theHuggies on sale for 19.97? Thanks!
Is the Lean Cuisine Special purchase a Target promotion or you HAVE to have the coupon to get the free skinny cow? I wa just wondering because if it was a Traget Promotion you could potentially get 2 free skinny cow… unless I am totally confused on this lol. THANKS 🙂
Could someone tell me if I must have an I-phone/apps only to get mobile text coupons? I see people use their phones at the register, but it is new to me. Thank you for any info.
yep – nfortunately I do not believe the cat litter is a match – but I appreciate you guys looking out for me
Here’s the link JIC for the cat litter rebate but w/out seeing the ad, I’m not sure if its the same cat litter that would trigger the GC. Rebate is for A&H Ultra Last Baking Soda Coated Clumping cat litter 20 lb
Kerry,
I think there was a $1 off unstoppables MQ in the 1/1 P&G 🙂
If the items being purchased/returned are exactly the same, the UPC will be the same, too. I’ve done that at Target more than a few times and not had any problems.
@ Melissa I don’t believe that will work. They have the upc# on the receipt by the item so the computers know that the item is not on the receipt. I got burned doing that last year with something I had purchased. CSR said the item I was returning wasn’t on the receipt I was showing. VB check your receipt before you do that, if that is what you are going to do.
Don’t forget there’s also a mail in rebate on the Arm & Hammer Ultra Last cat litter. Try me FREE!
So, it’s almost like Buy One Get One when you get the rebate back — plus the $5 gift card on top of it.
Any one know how long they usually leave something at a clearanced price before they drop the price. Target has had these sheet sets clearanced at the same price for almost 2 weeks and I’m wondering if that is going to be as good as it gets.
@Ashleigh- just left the zero off- it is $50 – will go correct- TY for catching it
Thanks I still have the receipt and looked up the model on target. So I think I will do the purchase and return with the old receipt. $25 is worth it to me.
Is it really a $5 credit for ipod nano or $50? I’d be interested but not for $5
VB – If you still have your receipt then just go buy another one on sale and return it with the old receipt (provided they are exactly the same seat of course).
@Martha, I have asked Pharmacy about this a few times. They said no more coupons in weekly fliers. They said only way to get them is through catalina or the VERY rare pharmacy coupon booklets
Price adjustments will be done withing 14 days of purchase. If it is beyond that, the Guest Service associate can do a return/repurchase, if they are nice. It is not “policy”, but can be done.
Would they do a price adjustment?
Dang it I just bought the Eddie Bauer car seat dec 26 at full price.
Thanks, looks like the car seat i need for my 2 yo is on sale!!!
@Martha- I believe so yes- we have not seen one in a very long time and don’t think we will again. The catalina machine seems to be spitting them out sometimes though.
Does anyone know if Target has completely stopped putting and Rx coupon in the weekly flier? Are there other ways to get a coupon?
