[sati769leigh]

walked in with $40 in target gift cards and walked out with $0 in target gift cards. missing is 4 pepsi 12 packs. they are still in the car. 4 seperate transactions.

[mmbtdecker]

2 transactions-I got 5 12 pks. of pepsi, used 3/$5 gift cards from last weeks Pledge deal, my oop was .74, then got a $5 gift card for that purchase. 2nd trans was 2 Glase whisp flameless candle starter kits, and 1 luminair (I think that's airwick) flameless candle kit, used 2-$5 peelies from glade and the $3 luminair coup, paid w/my $5 gift card, and oop was only .24. Under a dollar and got 3 xmas gifts and enough diet pepsi to last the dh a couple weeks!

[gizzelle1111]

In 2 trips I got:

2 Glade Wisp Cinn. Apple Candles, 6 SOC refills, 2 Pledge Duster thingies, 6 duster refills & $20 in GCs. Paid about $17. Don't know the full breakdown as I am still trying to figure dang CRT out. I either ripped them off of $3.50 or they did me for $2.50. Still happy though! For the pledge I used the Buy Duster/refill Qs plus one $3/2 & two $1/1 Qs. $5 on Wisp & B2G1 Qs on glade. Gizz

Forgot to add I learned something new (to Me) at Target website. I saw on left side how they had a breakdown by dept. of the ad so checked out the GC category....lo & behold, all the GC offers on 1-2 pages. Now how do you figure out if its just for that week or for longer? TIA for an answer. Gizz

[neelia]

Obviously not that great, but we desperately need TP (we're on our last roll!) so I went and:

Charmin Ultra Soft 18 big roll - $9.99
- $0.25 of any charmin Q
Gilette Fusion Razor - $7.94
- $4.00 Gilette Q from this weeks paper
Tide trial size - .97
- $1.00 any Tide Q
4 Rayovac AA battery packs - $4.00
- 4 $1.00 Rayovac printable

- $5.00 GC from glade deal

= $9.95 OOP

and I got another $5.00 GC YAY! I panicked at first because the GC I got from last time which I gave them to pay with.. wouldn't scan and she said it must've been used already. Um.. no? So I gave her the one that they had just given me to see if that one would work and it did! So then she scanned my original one again after the transaction was over and it still has $5.00 on it. I was going to cry. lol.


I did have trouble with the Rayovac coupons though.. they wouldn't scan. At all. So they had to manually give me the discount and the manager took the coupons to figure out what was going on. Hmm.. I'm afraid to try those again.

We (DH and I) are just baby couponers...started in Oct. But wanted you all to know what you've inspired. Here is our Target receipts tally for 11/11 thru 11/28. We bought in 6 trips to Target:
8 snack size potato chips,
4 boxes Ritz,
20 trial size eye drops,
7 glade candle holders,
9 glade refills,
1 12pk cottonelle TP ($7.69),
1 meat thermometer($8.29),
6 bags Dunkin' donuts coffee,
2 Goody hair acces.,
4 purina dog treats,
2 bags nestle fun size candy,
1 dial foam soap pump,
and 2 pharmacy (meds for DH @ 7.99 for both)
(also 1 christmas present not incl. in totals)My final OOP (out of pocket) was $27.42 and I still have $20.62 in gift cards gained from these transactions so actual net OOP was $6.80. Now surely, I don't need all of this stuff but the TP, the meat therm, and the meds were all needed and these together cost $23.97 pls tx. The candles are gifts, the hair acc, and candy are stocking stuffers and the dog is learning to retrieve the paper in exchange for the treats. The eyedrops will go to Goody bags for the Homeless and the soap pump will be refilled to stretch our current supply of hand soap. We will enjoy the coffee here in Starbucksland and think fondly of our courting days in CT where Dunkin' Donuts abound. So all will be put to good use. ( A new Target just opened 5 min. from our house so it is a convienient stop on the way to Albie's.)
My best piece of Target advice from HCW was to go on the Wed. before to buy Black Fri. deals and then return for a 7 day price guarentee adjustment. Thank you Thank you Thank you!! You all rock! ~CouponNg

Sorry, I don't see on the Target website where the gc's are listed? Can you walk me through it? :)
