#1. Earn Free Target Gift Cards When Shopping Online at Target!

Okay… I’ll admit it.  I am regular online Target shopper.  And did you know that they regularly give away free $5 Target Gift Cards for select offers online?

Just the other day I stocked up on some toilet paper with a great deal on Target.com.  Then… I received a Free $15 Gift Card in the mail, just for purchasing 3 large packs of toilet paper!

The sale was already a bargain, but the gift card sent it over the top.

Talk about a sweet deal!

Then this week I was loading up on some sunscreen for an upcoming vacation, and they had a deal for a Free $5 Gift Card for every $20 spent on beauty products (sunscreen included).

So I just split my order up into 3 separate orders.  I added $20 of sunscreen or other beauty products to each order, and received $15 in Target gift cards loaded into my online account for future purchases!

Woohoo!

#2. Target Prescription Coupons: Fill a Prescription, Get $5.00!

Receive a $5.00 Target Coupon after filling 10 eligible prescriptions in the Target Pharmacy!

Ask at the Target pharmacy for details.

#3. Get A 5% Off Target Birthday Coupon!

When you add your birthday to your online Target.com account, you’ll score 5% off a Shopping Trip to help celebrate your special day!

Now you’ve got another excuse for a Target run!

#4. Get 5% off Everything Every Day with a Target REDcard!

Grab a Target REDcard Debit Card or Credit Card and get an Extra 5% off Everything!

When you save 5% on absolutely everything that can really add up.

But when you save 5% in addition to using coupons and free gift cards, your savings literally go through the roof!!

#5: Never Pay for Target Shipping + Get FREE Target Curbside Pickup!

Are you planning on ordering something from Target, but haven’t met the minimum balance to earn free shipping?  Avoid the shipping charges when you ship your order to your nearest Target.  Then simply stop by and pick it up when you’re out and about for FREE!

If you don’t want to go inside your local Target, you can also take advantage of the Target Drive Up order pickup option.

Be sure to check with your local store to make sure this service is available.

Then follow the Target App instructions for how to order and pickup the items you want!

#6. Join Target Circle to Earn Cash Back Just for Shopping! (+ Get Access to Target Offers)

If you haven’t joined Target Circle yet… just do it!!  You’ll earn cash back every time you shop + get access to hundreds of more Target Circle special offers!

I do this EVERY time I shop at Target, and love getting extra cash back on my purchases!

#7. Save Money on Online Orders with Target Order Consolidation!

Are you placing an order online?

Sometimes with larger orders or when you’re ordering multiple different items, they may be scheduled to arrive on different dates.

So before placing your order, always check to see if Target is offering an additional discount if you check the box next to ‘Order Consolidation’.

Today I just saved an extra $1.00 on my order by checking that little box.

Sweet!

#8. Add Items to Your Cart, Then Save for Later for the Best Target Deals!

Another trick I do when shopping online at Target is to always add items to my cart, then simply click ‘Save for Later’ on each item.

Then, once a week I just pop in to check on the price and see if anything has gone on sale, or if any ‘Offers’ have been added.

For example, I had some beauty products I had been wanting, but wasn’t loving the price, so after a few weeks of checking in on the price… I noticed one week they were all 25% off online only!  Yay!

I had also added several games and puzzles to my cart for some good ol’ family fun, but waited for a deal.

After a few weeks I noticed there was a special online offer for Buy 2, Get 1 FREE!  It really can just pay to wait! 🙂

#9. Use Reusable Bags and Get 5 cents Off for Each Bag!

Don’t forget to Bring Your Reusable Bags!  You’ll receive a 5 cent discount at checkout for each reusable bag you use at Target.

Hey…it all adds up! 😉

#10. Always Check the End Caps for Target Clearance Deals!

Take advantage of Everyday Target Clearance!

Find Target Clearance items at the end of aisles (or “end caps”) throughout the store.  Target will regularly clearance out products that didn’t sell well.

Here’s the trick, items that go on clearance are often very similar to items you already use.

You can buy these clearance items as a significant discount, then use them instead of the similar products you already use.

Dianna writes: “Keep an eye on Target’s clearance sections – they are constantly changing out their home section and you can get super cute, trendy pieces for cheap!”

#11. Know Your Target Clearance Tags! (Find the % off on the Tag)

Did you know that if you look at the upper right corner of the clearance price tags, it actually shows you what percent the clearance item has been marked down?

By simply looking at top right corner of every clearance tag, you can easily know how good a deal you are getting if you purchase the item on clearance.

#12. Try 1 New Target Store Brand Item Each Week!

Store Brands are an easy way to save money at almost every store and Target is no exception.  By giving up the brand name label, you can score the same or similar products for a discount everyday, sale or no sale.

Scared to try a store brand for the first time?

Make a game out of trying one new store brand every week.  You’ll be surprised at how many store brand products you like, and how much money you’ll save!

#13. Always Check the Target Weekly Ad Before You Shop!

Before you head to the store, be sure to check the Target Weekly Ad to find out what’s on sale this week.

Sales constantly change and the only way to make sure you’re not missing a deal you want is to review the ad before you shop.

I like to take time to review it at home before I go so I’ve got the best plan of attack ready!  Check your local Sunday Newspaper for the new ad each week.

#14. Shop The Target Black Friday Sale for HUGE Target Discounts!

I’ve scored so many great Target Black Friday Deals over the years!

Go check out the hottest deals, plus get sneak peeks at this year’s Target Black Friday Ads!

#15. Shop Target End-of-Season and Target Holiday Clearance for up to 90% off!

This is an easy way to save big when the store has purchased more for a holiday or for seasonal products than what they were able to sell.

Target can’t sell Christmas Wrapping Paper for full price in January, so expect some great discounts.  I loaded up on 10 rolls of wrapping paper, Christmas cards, and so many fun decor items after Christmas for 90% off!

Cha-ching!

Discounts will start immediately after the holiday or season has ended, with increased markdowns every few days or so.

The longer you wait the bigger the discounts, but also the less clearance items still available!

#16. Take Along Your Printable Coupons for Target!

Before you head to the store, make sure to print your favorite coupons to take along with you!  You can also ‘Stack’ your Cartwheel Offers with Manufacturer Coupons to double your savings!

Plus, if you’re going through self-check, they’re really easy to just scan yourself before you pay.

How sweet is that?!?

#17. Clip More Target Coupons to Use from your Sunday Newspaper!

Load up on even more coupons for Target when you get a local Newspaper Subscription!

This is one of the easiest ways to consistently collect grocery coupons.

#18. Know the Target Coupon Policy Before You Shop!

Get familiar with the Target Coupon Policy to maximize your savings.  The coupon policy is updated regularly, so be sure to read it before shopping with coupons!
