Thanks to Mercedes at Common Sense With Money for many of these great deals!

Have you found any stellar bargains at Walmart lately? Please feel free to email me so I can share them (while giving you credit, of course)! Along the same lines, if you find a deal is no longer valid because the coupon has expired or reached its print limit, it’s very helpful if you let me know so I can keep it current. Thanks for your help!

Target: Official Corporate Coupon Policy

September 10, 2009 by Tara Kuczykowski 124 Comments

Fantastic news for those of you that have been having various issues with coupons at Target. The Target corporate coupon policy is now available online!

Target Stores Coupon Policy

Coupons are a great way to save even more when shopping with us, and it’s easy to use them at our stores.

Target accepts one manufacturer coupon and one Target coupon for the same item (unless prohibited)

Super Target coupons can be used in any Target store if the store carries the item

We gladly accept valid internet coupons

Because of the variety of coupons available to our guests, we do have some guidelines for how coupons can be redeemed at Target.

When accepting coupons, we use the following guidelines:

We accept two kinds of coupons: Target-issued coupons and manufacturer-issued.

We’ll accept one Target coupon and one manufacturer coupon for the same item, unless either coupon prohibits it.

Coupon amount may be reduced if it exceeds the value of the item after other discounts or coupons are applied.

We can’t give cash back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item.

We can’t accept coupons from other retailers, or coupons for products not carried in our stores.

All valid coupons should be presented to the cashier while you’re checking out.

This policy clearly states the official stance on many of the issues that have been reported to me recently. I would encourage you to print a copy and keep it with your coupons to present at the register should you have any future issues.

Thanks, Krazy Coupon Lady!
