Target Victory!

Earlier I posted a sad shopping trip I had at Target. My lovely niece in law (friend!) had previously emailed Target Corporate about their coupon policy and this is the response she received...

*** When accepting coupons, we use the following guidelines:

- We accept two kinds of coupons: Target-issued and manufacturer-issued.
- We'll accept one Target coupon and one manufacturer coupon for the same item, unless either coupon prohibits it.
- We can't give cash back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item; in this case, we're able to adjust the value of the coupon to equal the price 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.

For questions about using a specific coupon, we encourage you to stop by Guest Service and ask to speak with the Guest Service Team Leader. They'll do their best to help while you're in the store. If you still have questions after speaking with them, please call our Guest Relations team at (800) 440-0680. Either way, we're here to help! ****

So Saturday I printed out this email and went to get some deals! I spoke to the Guest Service desk and told them of my experience and then showed them the email. They seemed surprised by the policy but was willing to honor it. So when it was time to check out the managers were nice enough to watch my transaction and make sure that the cashier honored all of my coupons... even the ones that allowed for a free item. Yay! I was able to get 2 pledge cans, a Vitamin water and 2 Dry Idea deodorants for free - woohoo!

I told them that this blog had been started and that I will be mentioning the policy here... so feel free to mention us if you have trouble :-) Thanks Kelley!!
