Some Of My Best Target Tips

I go to my local Target so often, the cashiers recognize me! One time, I had taken a break from Target (for about a week or so) and when I went back in, one of the cashiers said "I haven't seen you in awhile." When a cashier says that, you know you are at Target too much!

Here are some of my Target money-saving tips!

Tip #1: If you go to Target on the following days, you are more likely to find the great clearance deals before anyone else!

MONDAY- kids clothes, electonics

TUESDAY- women's clothes, domestics

WEDNESDAY- men's clothes, toys, health and beauty

THURSDAY- lingerie, shoes, housewares, sporting goods

FRIDAY- cosmetics, hardware, auto, jewelry Target

Holiday Clearance:

50% off day after holiday for three days

75% off fourth day after holiday for three days

90% off seventh day after holiday for 1-2 days

Tip #2: Match manufacturer coupons + Target coupons + sale= really cheap (or free!) stuff!

Sometimes you get just the right combination of manufacturer coupon, Target coupon and sale. For example, if Lysol was on sale for $2 and you had a 50 cent manufacturer coupon and a $1 Target coupon, you would get the Lysol for 50 cents! Check the Target web site regularly for printable coupons

Tip #3: Think outside the box At first, stocking up on holiday clearance may seem like a waste of money. For example, items at holiday time, packaged in red and green, seem too "Christmasy" for another time of year. But you have to think outside of the box! Last year, I found cute metal beverage tubs with the Christmas clearance. Perfect for summer parties!

Tip. #4: Target hop Sometimes my favorite local Target does not have any good clearance. Instead of waiting, I check out other local Targets. You'd be amazed at how different clearance can vary from one store to another! For example, I found a pair of cleats for my son at one Target for $4.98 (a steal of a price!). I checked another local Target and they didn't have any cleats on sale. Also, when I am in other cities, I try and visit those Targets and see what they have.

Tip #5: If something goes on sale... Sometimes (rarely!) I buy something full price at Target. If it goes on sale within 14 days after that, I get the difference back! I've gotten back $10 off a video game, $8 back from storage containers and more.
