    QUESTION Forgot to do 2 transactions and need a separate receipt. Any suggestions?

    I need 2 receipts for 2 separate rebates. No photocopies allowed. Of course I used coupons and don't have any more, so I can't just return and rebuy easily. Any suggestions of how I could get another receipt? Or has anyone ever gone to CS and had them return and rebuy and they gave you the coupon price without actually having another coupon? I mean, it does list the coupon on the receipt?

    Or....would they refund the whole amount pre-coupons. So, if I bought 3 ziplocks @ $2.27. Would they give me $6.81 back? Even though I used a BOGO MQ and another $0.40 MQ, so really only paid $4.14? And then I could use that $6.81 to rebuy my zipocks? Just thinking this one through now....

    WWYD? Suggestions? TIA!

    I've never tried it, but since cash registers are cleared out every day, they wouldn't have your coupons anymore. This means they'd have to refund you full value (since they'd be getting back the money from the coupons anyway). You could then use that cash to rebuy the product.

    I'd be leary of doing this only because my Target is pretty ignorant when it comes to coupons. However, if your Target is coupon-friendly or you just really need that receipt, try it!

    Refunding the whole amount is pretty YMMV. Some stores will and some stores will not.

    I have gone to CS before and explained the situation. I simply said I needed two separate receipts for rebates and would it be possible to do a simple refund for cash, then re-purchase the items.

    What I have done is to cut the receipt. I send them the part that shows their item purchased and a copy of the other half stating that I needed the other half for another rebate. Never had any problems.

    I think you might have a better chance of getting it accepted if you also send a photo copy of the original receipt & the portion you cut from the original , taped to the side of the copied part. You need to prove the date in most offers.

    I see no logical reason they wouldn't return the full price since you would literally be paying it right back.

    If that doesn't work out though, why not just buy three more items for the rebate. It is an easy rebate to do and they have so many cheap products to choose from. I know I could have done this one 100 times over without even trying I love all of their products so much.

    How is that considered fraud? By the end of the day, each register is cleared out and all the coupons are submitted (or stuck in an envelope to be sent away, whatever). Therefore, you can't return the coupon so you have to return full price. If you don't, the the customer pays $3 cash + $2 coupon; you return the $2, and the manufacturer sends in $2.08 because the coupon has already been submitted. So, Target makes $2.08 out of the transaction, and has now committed coupon fraud.

    Right?

    I have edited my post. I had been advised in the past to be careful with returns involving coupons, and I do make mistakes. I apologize for any misunderstanding.
