Frugal Friday

I love to shop at Target. Their stores are clean and bright, well-stocked, and have very friendly employees, unlike some other places I could name.

I also love coupons. So imagine the flutter of my heart a while back when I found out that Target actually puts out their own store coupons online! About every other week, they put out a new set. You can find them on the Target home page, a link down at the bottom. And even though they say "Super Target", they're actually good at any Target, assuming your store has the product in question. (Sometimes the coupons are for meats or produce that is not carried at the regular Targets - you're out of luck, then!)

But, when the new ones come up, the old ones come down, even though they are still good. You can always just make a copy and keep it on your own computer (right-click, save image as) but what if you forget, or don't get a copy of something and discover later that there actually is a good deal on that item? Luckily, there are two websites to the rescue:

Target printable coupons generator at 50webs

Target printable coupons generator at A Full Cup


Both of these places keep a copy of all known, current Target printable coupons, and the best thing is, they have them set up so that you can print multiple copies at one time without having to do it one at a time! I like to check both of these places because the one from A Full Cup sometimes has ones that the first generator doesn't have.

One more great frugal thing about these coupons is the fact that you can use them WITH a manufacturer's coupon! So if you love, say, Pantene, you can use your regular manufacturer coupon and STILL use the Target coupon for extra savings! I have gotten a lot of stuff ultra cheap, free, and sometimes even been PAID to take things home.

When I checked out she wouldn't let me use the Target and Manufacturer coupon. Should I have pressed the issue??

Write in to Target and ask for a copy of their coupon policy; you'll get back a form letter, but it does say that you can use them together.

Of course, individual store management sometimes make their own rules, but I would try again, nicely.

Thanks for commenting!
