    can we use this for garnier shampoo and conditioner too?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Yep! ๐Ÿ™‚

      • newcouponer

        Thanks Collin…

  2. Steph

    Thanks!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      YW!

  3. Montanna

    I did this today, but a little differently. This is what I got:
    3 apricot scrubs
    2 Vaseline spray and go
    1 st Ives spray and go
    Used:
    $5 off $20
    (2) $2/1 Vaseline coupons
    $1/1 Vaseline target coupon
    $0.75/1 st Ives coupon
    $3 off $10 st Ives coupon
    Paid $14.99, received $10 in giftcards.

    I rolled the giftcards and got:
    2 acabi drinks
    1 pecans
    1 plum fruit chews
    1 dr scholls hidden arch support
    1 Lipton tea
    1 Nivea lotion
    Used:
    $2/1 Nivea target coupon
    $2:/1 Nivea coupon
    (2) $2/1 acabi drink coupon
    $1/1 plum coupon
    $2.50/1 target dr scholls coupon
    $2.00/1 dr scholls coupon
    20% cartwheel dr scholls
    Total: $13.68, used $10 giftcards
    Paid $3.68

    So $18.67 for 13 items, or $1.43 each. ๐Ÿ™‚ savings of $41.

    • Julie m

      Wow… Way to go Montanna! That’s awesome! I’m thinking of doing the first deal you posted about. Was there any hassle getting those 2 $5 gift cards? Just wondering if I should expect any talk of one $5 gift card per transaction regardless of number of Vaseline/st Ives products purchased. Thanks in advance!

      • mel

        Good Job! But, you didn’t roll your gc. You just used it for payment on your next transaction. Rolling is when you use a store reward/gc towards another store reward/gc offer. If you would have gotten more st ives/vaseline in the 2nd transaction, that would be rolling bc you would get a new gc in return.

        • Montanna

          Sorry, totally newbie to couponing. Thanks for the heads up ๐Ÿ™‚

          • Mel

            Welcome to the couponing world! Lots of lingo to learn!!

      • Montanna

        No problems at all! She just scanned the giftcards after the three items when the system notified her about them ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. brandice

    So many coupons to be used in all scenarios do u think they will beep

  5. Jamie

    How long will the $5 gift card deal run?

  6. Daniel

    Does anyone know if this scenario would work?
    x6 St. Ives scrubs @$3.59 each
    Total: $21.54
    -$5/$20 TQ
    x2 $3/$10 St. Ives
    x1 .75ยข/1 TQ
    Total: $9.79
    Get back x2 $5 gift cards = free!
    What I don’t know is if I’d be able to use two of the $3 off purchase of $10 or more St. Ives coupons. It does say have a limit of two per transaction, but I’m not sure of it’s possible to use both… What do you all think? TIA

    • newcouponer

      what an idea,,,,Even I want to know this

    • Tarri

      It may not work because it says w $10 or more purchase.

    • newcouponer

      just did this …it worked

      • Daniel

        Cool, thanks for reporting back!! I’ll def try tomorrow:-) btw you may now change your name from “newcouponer” to “mastercouponer” lol!

      • kelly

        should i use my phone q first then the two 3.00 q or 300q first then phone q?which did you do? thanks kelly

        • Daniel

          Kelly, first you should use the coupon on your phone, and then the $3 ones.

    • Kristina

      Couldn’t you use more than (1) 0.75 off St Ives Target coupon too?….. even 6 if you had them??? Or is there a limit on like qs? Surely it’s more than one though.

      • mel

        Target IP coupons usually state limit 1 per guest. That is why the deal scenario only had 1. Some stores will let you use more, But the max is 4 per transaction (per their coupon policy). The register will not accept a 5th identical store coupon.

        • Michelle

          Per their coupon policy it is actually four like coupons per household per day.

      • Cherie

        The .75 Q has a limit of one coupon or offer per guest, it doesn’t have the new wording ๐Ÿ™ so only 1

      • Daniel

        @Melissa, You could if you have a guest with you. I usually go with my mother or siblings to the store, so two would be allowed. I just used one in the scenario because mostly all scenarios focus on using one, because I guess some people shop alone. Just remember that there is a limit of 4 like coupons!

        • Daniel

          Woops, I meant Kristina! :p

  7. Melissa

    If you don’t have a smart phone, can use still get the coupon?

    • April

      I have a Tracfone with internet and I am able to bring up the coupon. Last week I wasn’t sure if the laundry coupon would work and the cashier who also works at the customer service desk said she would just key it in for me if I couldn’t get it to work on my phone. So if you have an issue I would just ask customer service to ring you up. IMO you shouldn’t be penalized for not having an expensive phone.

      • Renee

        April, I totally agree with you about the phones. I read the fine print below a mobile coupon the other day and it states that the cashier is supposed to key in the code if scanning does not work. I have been printing mobile coupons at home since I don’t have a smart phone but since I read that they are supposed to key it in, I think I will stop printing and just show them the bar code number.

        • lorigibe

          Renee, How do you print out a mobile coupon? Thanks!

    • Jason

      Melissa, I have an older flip-style phone and I use Target mobile coupons all the time. You’re texted a link which people open with their smartphone and it displays the barcode to use at checkout. What I do is type the link I receive in the text into my browser and then print out the barcode and it works just fine.

  8. April

    You can click the Facebook link twice to print the coupons two times. You can also go to the Burt’s Bees web site to print the $3 and $1.50 each twice as well.

  9. newcouponer

    Collin does the Revlon eye coupon works on eye liner too?

    • Tarri

      It should.

  10. CHRISTINE

    I’m bummed =[ I really want to do the 3 st ives and 2 revlon deal and I went to print all of the coupons and I’m out of ink! Is there any way I can get all of these coupons on my phone? I’ve never done a Target haul and I was oh so excited lol thanks ladies for any help! =]

    • Edie

      Nope, you will have to print them out. Sorry!

  11. Christina

    I try to avoid Target because 4 mediums for coupons is overwhelming for me.

    Can someone help me understand the wording on the Mobile coupon?
    It says: “Target Coupons and Mobile Coupon discount cannot be combined on individual items.”

    What does this mean in basic terms?
    I’m reading it as: “You can’t use this because you have a $1.25 Target Q for the Burt’s Bee’s lip color.”

    Am I getting this wrong? Thank you!

    • Daniel

      Basically you can’t use two target coupons on one item. For example, If there were a $1.25/1 Burt’s Bees MOBILE target coupon that you wanted to stack with a $1.25/1 Burt’s Bees target PRINTABLE coupon, you wouldn’t be able to. However coupons for $ of entire purchase like the beauty coupon can be used along with other target coupons. I hope you understand my explanation! /:

      • Christina

        Ahhh, ok! Now I understand. Clearly stated, Daniel. Thank you!

    • B

      Im wondering the same thing? I avoid using both target q and target mobile q because I always thought you couldn’t combine them.

      • Mel

        It doesn’t matter the source of a target coupon, whether it’s a printable, a home mailer, from a magazine, insert or mobile. You can only use 1 of those PER item. You can’t buy 1 tub of wipes and apply the 4 different sourced coupons, you would need 4 tubs, so each coupon applies to one item.
        “Off your purchase” offers are different though. Since its a threshold you have to meet, you can apply other Target store coupons.

  12. Emmy

    Question- how many times can I use the $5 off $20 mobile coupon?? Can I do several transactions? Or is there a limit ?

    • Daniel

      Once you use the coupon, it grays out. If you try using it again, it most likely won’t remove anything. The only way I know is getting another coupon from another phone. Gl!

    • brandice

      Only once

    • Alma

      Once you take someone with you that can txt the # from there phone and let you use it ๐Ÿ™‚

  13. Misty

    Is anyone else having difficulty printing coupons from Target’s Website?? It keeps saying I must select a coupon when I have selected 3 to print. I have google chrome web browser. Thanks for any help.

    • newcouponer

      change the browser and try again…I had this problem too…
      change and try to do it again it should work

    • Anne

      Clear your history

      • Mel

        Clear your browser history & cache AND restart your computer. I only use Chrome, so once I did that, it fixed the problem.

  14. Lin

    Is hair color included?

  15. Ree

    Urgh, I just bought some conditioner yesterday and I didn’t know about this coupon! Does anyone know if I take this in with my receipt, will they give me money back?

    • Mae

      Yes. They will give you it’s full refund value

      • Chris

        It has to be within 3 days of your purchase though.

    • Ree

      Thanks!

  16. Loren

    I have not been able to print Target coupons in at least a week, is anyone else having this problem? I select my coupons, and when I go to the next page, they’re gone. Then I tried printing them page by page, ie I am on page 3, choose the one coupon I want from that page, hit print, and it says “Please select coupons to print” while I’m looking at my coupon showing up in the appropriate field showing what I selected.

    • C

      This was happening to me, so I switched to Chrome and worked fine.

      • Chris

        Clear your browser history and cache as well.

  17. T

    I have been searching for the St Ives coupon for 3 days now..Its no longer avail on the Target site ๐Ÿ™

    • love2deal

      It is there now. Put in search box St. and it comes up

  18. Jo

    Does anyone know if deodorant is included in this? Thanks!

  19. vicky

    Is hair color included?

  20. Jenny

    Are the St. Ives travel size products included in the buy 3 get $5 gc deal?

  21. Mini

    Oh I wish I had the 4/13 SS to get the coupons for the Vidal Sassoon!!!

  22. April

    FYI Collin posted a coupon for Harbro gummy bears I saw these in the grocery clearance unsure exact size and price, we don’t eat these so I didn’t get details or purchase them.
    Also there was Secret Brazil deodorant on clearance for 1.98 and there is a 1.50/1 RP coupon and I see a target school supply coupon for 1.50 off of 3 and they have pencil packs for 0.77 so that would make three 0.27 for each pack of pencils.

  23. rachel

    Just went to Target Springfield VA to do Colin’s scenario #1. My target had the scrubs priced at $4.69 and $4.29. Boo, my target always has higher regular prices than those posted. But otherwise the deal worked. I got two Revlon colorstay eyeliners instead of mascaras, but they were also priced at $4.99. Got the orbit gum deal. Three scrubs, two eyeliners and the gum for about $4. Great deal!

    • Montanna

      Did you check all of them? All but the apricot scrubs I got were that price as well, but I found some that were $3.69

  24. jess

    Thank you so much for telling us about all these great deals. However, i feel like the Target cashier is tired of seeing my stinkin’ face by now. I am overwhelmed by all the possible scenarios that i think i will hit the pause button on couponing for a little while and just enjoy some time with the kids in this nice weather. We are well stocked already and honestly, any more items will be for donation. I’m sure some people need these deals for current personal use. Good luck couponing everyone!

  25. DeanaOC

    Ugh I went right when they opened this morning and the beauty section pretty much looks like it’s been ransacked. The Apricot Scrub shelf was wiped clean (I DID get a green tea mask on for 5.05 just because I needed something for $5 to hit the threshold) they were also wiped out of the Burts Bees face wash soooo I got the 2 mascara’s, 1 burts bees lip shimmer and 1 green tea wash. I only paid $6.86 BUT I didn’t get a giftcard which kinda stinks. Oh well next time I wont wait until Friday!! lol

  26. Laura

    Can you use cartwheel even if you don’t have a smart phone?

    • Deana Bryant Buelow

      Yes just go to cartwheel online and print your barcode. That’s how I use it cause my internet doesn’t work instore

  27. charo

    i have a question about the $5 off … where can i get that? cant find the coupon for that in target website. thank you

  28. Nikki

    Can you use this online?

  29. Brandi

    Not seeing the St. Ives Target coupon anymore ๐Ÿ™

  30. Anny

    Is it possible to print these coupons without the coupon software? Im not using a personal computer so it won’t let me download the software ๐Ÿ™

  31. MakeupMama

    Just did the Revlon St. Ives deal! And the lash potion mascara got really nice reviews…yay!!!

  32. Diane

    How many times can we use the mobile Q in a day?

    • infjourney

      Once

  33. CHRISTINE

    I had my first EVER couponing experience today and I got 3 St. Ives face scrubs, 2 Revlon Mascaras, 3 Speed Sticks for my husband, a huge pack of teeth flossers and some toothpaste lol all for $10.65! The St. Ives were $4.39 at my store so it should have been cheaper, but for my first time, I think I got some GREAT deals! Even my husband was excited and is now on board for the couponing trips with me lol THANK YOU COLIN!! =]=]

    • CHRISTINE

      *COLLIN!! Lol

      • Julie M

        Congrats! Glad you had an awesome first time experience! You were lucky that they had the face scrub, my Target was cleaned out. Enjoy the couponing ride! ๐Ÿ™‚

        • CHRISTINE

          Awww man that’s a bummer! But thank you! =]=]

  34. Amanda

    I wonder if razors counts as beauty item?

  35. Barbara

    I made this deal: bought 3 st ives scrubs and 2 revlon mascara, paid 6.17 they gave me a gift card for $5.

  36. csivanantha

    The St Ives coupon is not on the target website!

  37. Rosy_0726@hotmail.com

    Hey!! I wanted to know if any did any deals without the st Ives scrubs because those coupoons do not work any more so any freaks deals with the mascaras and Vaseline and shampoo??????

    • Rosy_0726@hotmail.con

      I meant to say!! Fun deals

  38. Noel

    HELP! Does anyone know if you can still get a $5 Target Gift Card if you “price match” St. Ives? CVS’ Weekly Ad has St. Ives Scrubs BOGO 50% Off. Ideally …

    Buy 6 St. Ives Scrubs @ $4.79 = $28.74
    Receive 50% Off 3 @ $2.39 = ($7.17)
    Use 2/$3 Off $10 MQ = ($6.00)
    Use $5 BEAUTY Mobile TQ = ($5.00)
    Out of Pocket = $10.57

    I can see receiving at least one $5 Target Gift Card for the 3 “regular” priced items … However, I was curious if you would receive an additional gift card for the 3 “half-off” items? Anyone know?
