This may be a remedial question but if I am buying 4 products at target and have 4MFs and 1 Target Q do I need to add a filler item?

I got in on the razor deal last week at Target. I was able to get 20 razors for just $3.98 OOP! I wasn’t able to get there till the last day of the sale and was surprised to see a plethora or these in stock! This is about an 8 month supply for us.

Total before MQ’s – $139.80($6.99 x 20) After MQ’s and rolling GC’s I spent just $3.98! I got back a $5 GC from this deal making these better than free!

Today I transferred a prescription from Walgreens, where it cost $12.83, to Target, where it was only $4.99 (a savings of $7.84). Then I got a $10 gift card for the transfer. Then I picked up 5 packs of Diet Pepsi and used the $10 gift card, spending $7.80 (which includes $2.10 in deposits on the bottles and cans), but I got a $5 Target card. Plus, I’ll get the $2.10 back when I return the empty cans. I’m new at this, so fuzzy on the math, but I think I did good!!

So today I went to Target to get some things:

This is my first time going CrAzY with coupons, so I’m really proud of myself. But I’d like to thank all of you on these coupon blogs for your information on sales. So I went to Target, my favorite store, My first transaction was with 5 B1G1 coupons for the Sobe waters, I got 10 waters. I paid $5.35, the .35 was tax and I got a free $5 gift card. On to transaction #2, 1 scrubbing bubbles battery powered shower sprayers $8.69, used target coupon for $3 off and maf coupon $ 5 off,then i got a refill for $4.14 and used maf coupon for free when I get a sprayer.Also got a reveal lightbulb for 1.79 and the target coupon went thru for 1.79 even thought it said 1.50 off. Paid .82 which was only tax. I believe the free coupon with a 3.99 limit went throught for 4.14. Used the gift card for that. Next transaction I did because the target coupons said only one identical offer per transaction. SO I got the same light blub, sprayer and refill then I added 1 armor all car wash and 1 armor all glass cleaner, used the same coupons again as above and 2 $2 off one armor all and 1 target 3 off 2 armor all. Oh and I got my daughter come clothing items and some pool toys. Paid 27.63 used gift card, oop 26.30.

Total OOP was $31.65, BUT the catch is that the total without tax on the extra stuff I got my kids was $ 32.12! So I got the waters, cleaners and lightbulbs for FREE!! I MADE MONEY!

I just started to use coupons and this is my first time posting, but I couldn’t have done this without all of your help. I’d like to thank all of you.

I went to target todayh and bought Scrubbing Bubbles Power Spray. I love this stuff. Used the Mfg coupon for $5.00 off one and the target coupon and got it for free.

I just discovered that Target offers the best deals. I have been scoring great deals lately. My purchases are usually around 50.00 to 70.00 and I paid usually less than $3.00 and usually end up with another $5.00 gift card. The cashiers are usually so helpful and nice. I used to get excited about the Kmart doubles but they lost their appeal now with the Target deals. I did well with the Kmart Double this past week, I got a lot of stuff and have $100.00 in $10.00 coupons to spend next week.

Oh! I knew I left something out lol added to my items gotten from the previous post

20 hydro 5 razors

I found an awesome deals on Pledge Products – was able to pickup 2 Pledge Multi Surface Cleaners/Polish and 1 Fabric Sweeper for $.74 each!

Im Happy

any body else have trouble seeing the pictures?

wasn’t sure where to post this, so I’ll try it here as well. I need help. I went to my target tonight, and had two MFG and two Target coupons. I was buying identical 2 packs of razors. My mfg coupons stated limit one coupon per purchase. Both target coupons scanned, and 1 MFG coupon scanned, then the second one beeped (it was an identical coupon as the first MFG). Of course the manager brought up the limit one per purchase. I tried to let her know that I was using one per purchase, but no go. the amount did not fall below zero, and I was supposed to get a $5 gift card from this scenario, making it a moneymaker, but she wouldn’t adjust it, saying that she couldn’t. am i missing something here? how do I let managers and cashiers know that limit one per purchase is not the same as one per transaction? the whole night was really frustrating. my huggie coupon for $2.50 off three rang up at 1.99 off, and several other coupons beeped as well. It was like I had to justify each coupon I used. grrr. Next time I will go to my other Target where I never have problems (I couldn’t go there tonight because it’s too far away, and I was on a time restriction).

I found gold n plump chicken breasts marked down to 1.99 ( normally around 5.99) I also had mfc for $0.75 off so I was able to snag 4 packs of chicken breasts for $1.25 each!!

I for got to say that I ended up spending less than $5 for everything. The cashier gave me the entire value of the lotion even though it was over the coupon limit which took almost $2 more off- sweet !!

My big score tonight at Target was on WW Smart Ones meals. They were B4G1 and they were also marked down to $1.80 each. Plus I had a $4 off purchase of 10. Then one of the WW Smart Ones had a $3 off purchase of 5. So in the end I paid $3.80 for 10 WW Smart Ones or $0.38 each.

Now that is what I call saving on my lunches for 2 weeks!

I purchased Glade spray starter item and Glade refill.

I used a Target coupon that is Buy 1 automatic spray starter kit receive a refill for free. Target.com coupon.

I also used a manufacture coupon for $4.00 off any automatic spray starter kit. Coupons.com

My Target just reduced the Glade Scents and Spray Starter kits to $5.04. So with the 2 coupons the Starter kit and a refill package is only $1.04. The coupons are for any of the Glade automatic starter kit and refills. I prefer the scents and spray motion sensor so that is what item I purchase.
