    I did this deal today! Gotta love free stuff! I was so happy to see the $2.99 sign at my store. I love the smell of the lavendar scent!

  2. molly

    Just went and got this deal! Awesome 🙂

  3. Jordan

    My husband and I saw this last night and couldn’t believe it… I can confirm this price for Pensacola, FL.

  4. Kristie

    Thank you so much! I was running low on softener! Perfect timing! ;o) Does anyone know if they will let you buy two at one time? I was reading the Target coupon and it states, “Limit one coupon or offer per transaction.”

    • Jordan

      I bought 4 without any problems.

      • Kristie

        Thank you! ;o)

  5. Melissa

    Dang!! I just got back from a quick trip (vitamins, benefiber and a few travel items, spent $3.75 w/tax, saving over $14.00!!) Guess I’ll go tomorrow!!

  6. Amy Roper

    The Target in Jax NC doesn’t have any in stock…I have been checking daily!

  7. Brandon

    Can someone tell me what Purex cystals are and how good they work?

    • Amy Roper

      Fabric softner that smell AMAZING!!!!!

    • Lisa T.

      They are a fabric softener that you put right in the wash (not wait until rinse cycle). I bought some a few weeks back when they were free and I love it! Smells great.

      Btw, some people have reported their Target has them for $1.99

    • Melissa

      they are tiny crystals you put right in the washing machine, before you start the machine. They make my clothes smell amazing! (I’m using the purple bottle)

      • Jessica K

        I love the smell too. I have a little more static than with Downey, but I’m okay with that. I like that it’s mostly sugar and not animal fat.

        • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

          I think clothes are very static-y when they come out of the dryer also…..but they smell amazing!!

          • Stacie

            I agree. It seems to be more about fresh scent than softener or static. I am using it like crazy though. 🙂

  8. Catherine Bennet

    So Walgreens will take Target Coupons? I had no idea. Don’t forget tomorrow you can get 15% off Walgreens if you get the family and friends coupon!

    • Melissa

      huh? not following??

    • Sheila

      You should buy these at Target, not Walgreens, I think you might be confused? The price cut is at Target in some areas.

  9. Brandon

    There are also $1/1 coupons on facebook!!

  10. Sue M.

    No Target in my area. Don’t y’all just feel so sorry for me? LOL. I love Target! Lived in Vegas for 17 years and that was my “main store”, a couple blocks away. There wasn’t even a Wally world when I moved there, and I rarely went to K-Mart.

    ~sigh~ Maybe someday Target will consider us here again, when and/if the economy gets better. We actually had Target, as well as Olive Garden, and Red Lobster coming in a couple years ago…the building permits, etc…were all done. Then the economy took a bad turn.

    • Jessica K

      I’ll boo hoo for you. I grew up in Minneapolis, the land of Target. No Wally World until I was in college. Then we moved to Alabama. I was having a really bad day one day and drove 100 miles to Target just because it was so comforting. I think all I bought was cotton balls. My husband has never let me live it down, but now I laugh at myself. I understand how you feel though!

      • Cathy BB

        My friend and I always say Target is a medicine that lowers our blood pressure and makes us feel happy, just by walking in the doors. She’ll love this story. =)

  11. Josie

    In my store it was not marked, the $4.49 price tag was still up–bright red & proud!! But I used the trusty scanner & found they were in fact $2.99. Love it!

    • Jennifer

      My store (Louisville, KY) had a sign for $4.49 too. But underneath was the $2.99 sign, so I price checked to see and they were in fact $2.99. Love to get free stuff!

      • ashley

        Jennifer, I’m in Louisville as well – which store did you go to? Thank you 🙂

  12. tattooladyracer

    Anyone know if these can be used in a HE washer?

    • Allison

      I have an HE washer and I haven’t had any problems with it. Used it about 5 times so far.

    • Amy

      I have an HE washer too, and I haven’t had any problems yet. 🙂

      • BORN2RUN

        they also say they are HE safe and I as well have not had any problems in my HE with them 🙂

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      yes, it says so right on the bottle

  13. Brieanna

    Love love LOVE this fabric softener! Was wondering if anyone knew how I could get more coupons to snag these up? I have never used a clipping service before and did not know if they would even be here in time if I did? I only have a 1/2 of a bottle left and need more..been waiting for an awesome deal! Please help! Thank you!!

    • Tori

      i just bought 20 of the $2/1 coupons on couponsthingsbydede.com for only $3.00

      • Brieanna

        Thank you!! I sure hope my Target doesnt sell out before I get a few!

  14. mary

    I have a Free product coupon I have been saving this will be awesome to pair with it. Hope my Target has them on price cut!
    Also, I like to use them as air fresheners. I pour a little in the bottom of my son’s trash can or put a little dish in his closet.

  15. Diane

    I’ll have to go in & check because they sort of gave me the run around when i just called, i guess the guy who looked up the price, briefly said they were $4.99 but didn’t say if they were on sale or not, so i’m going to go in today & check once hubby gets home from work!

  16. Caitlin

    Little Rock, AR has them for $4.49 so not that great… I did get two bottles, though. $1.49 isn’t that bad, especially for someone who forgets to put softener in the wash! 😉

    • Alicia

      Thanks for the LR, AR price…glad to know there is another “hip” saver in the LR area!!

      • Sarah

        Me too!! I live near LR! I sometimes feel like I am the only one in the area who likes to save money!! Especially since we often miss out on the really good deals and coupons….

        • Caitlin

          You are NOT alone! I thought I was pretty isolated, too. My family still thinks Walmart is “cheap”. Unfortunately, they all think I’m a weirdo for using coupons, but weird or not, I am getting by without swiping that credit card, so that’s enough reassurance for me 🙂

    • Sarah

      Which store in Little Rock? I know the one off of University Ave tends to be a little more pricey….

      • Caitlin

        It actually WAS the University store. I was at Children’s Place and needed to grab a couple of things, but now I’m reading these were price cut yesterday and this was on Sunday, so maybe they are cheaper now? I am going to the NLR store in about an hour so I’ll see if they have any there!

    • Deedee

      Caitlin, I’m moving back home to LR soon. I just recently started couponing. Would you mind emailing me any tips you have? Like where do you get cheap newspapers? Is there anyone who does a LR or central AR coupon blog? Thanks!!
      deeds_hayes at yahoo dot com

      • Deedee

        Or any of you other LR savers!

      • Caitlin

        I don’t know of anyone who writes a blog here, but there is a website that I read that lists yard sale/estate sale finds: ashleysfinds.com. I actually live in an apartment complex and I get unlimited Redplum inserts from the recycling bin so I have never had to buy a paper. Feel free to email me if you want to ask anything else… I am full of ideas! 🙂 stuart912 at gmail dot com!

        • Sarah

          Wait!! There are Red Plum inserts in our area?? I live about 45 min outside of LR and I have the AR Democratic Gazette delivered and I have never seen a Red Plum! I even put in my zipcode and a zipcode from NLR on Red Plum’s site, and they said they don’t have any in our area!!??!!?

          • Caitlin

            Yeah! I get them in the mail, on Wednesdays. I get Redplum plus Kroger sale ad, Edward’s Food Giant, USA Drug, etc. There wasn’t one this week, but I generally get one each week, prior to the Sunday that they are in the newspaper.

            • Sarah

              That’s crazy!! I need to figure out how I can get them….. We get a Community Shopper paper delivered every Tuesday that has Kroger, USA Drug, etc., but NO Red Plum….

    • Mdsiv

      I am from Little rock. I follow Collin for the past 3 – 4 months and really love her site. I am happy to see comments from LR ‘hip’savers 🙂

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Try the downey ball! I was the same way, I always forgot to add softener during the rinse cycle… but with the downey ball, you just add liquid softener, throw the ball the same you add the detergent… and close the lid. Your all set.

    • Laura

      Thanks! I live in Little Rock and I was going to check tomorrow. I think I might hold off for now, hopefully I can get a better deal in April. Thanks again!

  17. Laura Kochanski-Yawin

    Just came from Target and grabbed the cystals for .99. Can’t wait to try it.

  18. Mrs.Hall

    That would be nice if my area had it at that price. I’m not going till Friday so I’m sure by then the local’s will have cleared the shelves lol..but I guess its worth a shot at the one set of coupons I have to try this product.

  19. Nicole

    Will Wal mart match the price and accept both coupons????

    • Caitlin

      They will match the price but won’t accept the Target q. They will only accept coupons that state a specific price for an item, like the Wags ones for 99 cent Dawn or whatever. HTH.

    • Katie

      Is it in this week’s Target ad? I think Walmart only price matches what is in the ads. I could be wrong, though…

  20. Christina

    I love this stuff! Guess I’ll have to go tonight…we’re supposed to get 5-10″ of snow tomorrow-friday! Just when my 4′ of snow was ALMOST completely melted…..

  21. Elke

    well got mine yesterday for the regular price, will be back tomorrow for the price adjustment since I had the coupon from the paper for $2.00 plus Target Coupon for $1.oo to in my Book will makes it FREE.

  22. Casandra

    got mine..no problems :))

  23. Felinda

    Got this great deal here in Sacramento, CA!! I was able to get 2 bottles for free and pay only tax. My Target has been great with accepting coupons 🙂

  24. benitezfamily

    Thanks again Collin. My store had a sign up for $4.99 but thought I’d take a chance and see what would happen at the register and I got lucky. They scanned $2.99 so I got it free. Going back again tonight to get one more. I’m in the California, San Gabriel Valley

  25. Lana

    Can you print this RP coupon off from online somewhere?

  26. Luv4meenu

    Where can I find a $2/1 coupon? It says I can find it on the 3/13 RP. What does that mean?

    • Caitlin

      3/13 Redplum insert. If you don’t have one you can always buy them from eBay!

  27. Beth

    Glad to see that they are 2.99 I have the Target 1.00 coupon and the manu 1.00 coupon so I’ll be able to get 2 bottles for 2.00! 🙂

  28. katie z

    just saw this this morning in central illinois.

  29. Malinda

    I grabbed 2 free bottles at the SuperTarget in Southwest Charlotte for $2.99. They had several in stock. Thanks Hip2Save!

  30. jason

    any luck in ohio?

    • Robin

      Thats what Im wondering.. I’ll swing by there in a bit and if I have any luck I’ll let you know.

    • Lori

      shelf price at the Bridgewater Falls store was $2.99 but the shelves were empty, none on the end caps either. This was Thursday afternoon)

  31. Denise

    Any luck in Maryland?

    • Reese

      they have them at the germantown store as of wednesday night

  32. Michelle

    Just got back from my Target in Jax Fl and mine were on price cut. I love those deals. Swung by K-mart and did double coupons since I was out that way. Got $118.93 of stuff for $3.08 love love love saving money.

    • Angie

      Any luck in AZ??

  33. claudia

    i don’t like to buy in target i have problems all the time with coupons

    • Rebecca

      Have you been to Target lately? I was getting extremely frustrated with Target and using coupons there, but a few months ago things started to get so much easier.

      • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

        My Target has suddently become much more coupon friendly! Huge turn-around from the last 2 yrs. I’m lovin’ it!

  34. Thalyta

    I am new to couponing and am curious about the Target coupons. How do you know if the coupon on the Target site is a manufacturer or store coupon? I hate it when I print a coupon from the Target site that I already have because I think that it is a Target coupon but it turns out to be a manufacturer coupon instead.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Not to plug another site but Collin references her often for Target deals – totallytarget.com keeps a running list when the site addes mew coupons. She’ll tell you if it’s Target or MFR.

      • Thalyta

        THANK YOU!!!

  35. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Any luck in CT????

  36. Judy

    The Target in Limerick, PA has a whole bunch on an end cap priced at $2.99, if you live in the area! :}

  37. Julie

    I just got home from the Target in Bellevue NE and they were on sale there. Got 2 bottles without any problems 🙂

    • Cathy BB

      Hi, fellow Nebraskan, and thanks for the tip! =) I hope to look for this one today in Lincoln.

      • Cathy BB

        Found them marked $2.99 on an endcap in Lincoln!

  38. LaToya

    Never used the Target coupons…..but I love this stuff and just called my store and they have them for $2.99. I have about 10 of the manufacturer’s coupons…and the 1 Target coupon….will they let me use that on all 10…or maybe just one and the rest I get for 99-cents?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You would need to print 10 Target coupons for it to apply to all. Target isn’t like wags. So You’d be getting one bottle free with the target Q but have to pay 99 cents for the others.

  39. Helen

    Thank you thank you thank you for posting this so fast!!! I was able to get to my Target and snag them for 99 cents after coupon, with one free using Target coupon. I finally got to a deal before the coupon queens in town cleared the shelves! LOL

    Also, I want to thank Walgreens for letting me keep all my coupons a couple weeks back during their sale and RR offer, because they never restock once their shelf is cleared. Because of them, I was able to snag this deal without the register reward ordeal of one at a time, and Target thanks you I am sure for the business as well! Thanks, Wags! LOL

  40. Laura

    Does anyone one how long these are supposed to be on price cut? I can’t tell from the pic tha tis posted. Thanks!

  41. sharon

    got one for free today, only had one $2 left. watch out for $1/1 hangtags for purex crystals on the purex detergent!

  42. Oralia R

    I have about 8 of the 2.00 coupons for this product, do I have to print 8 target coupons too? Can I just give them one and it automatically deducts for the other like Walgreens?

    • Renae

      no, you have to have target coupon for each item purchased. not like walgreens :O(

  43. Renae

    Did anyone else have this problem? I went to Target today to do the travel size sales and the lady manager said that ALL coupons are NOT for travel sizes regardless if they say it or not and they won’t take them. I had to put all my travel sizes back. Granted it would have been some decent overage because the ts deodorant was clearance too but aren’t they supposed to take them? I thought as long as it didn’t say ‘not travel size’ its legit for any size item. Help!!!! Seriously confused!!!

    • Sarah

      Take their policy with you, according to it they can reduce the amount of a coupon for items less than the amount. I’ve found it to be a YMMV, I rarely even try anymore, it is too much of a fight.

    • fairys5

      YOu got a crabby cashier. Only all target coupons are no good for travel. Shes confused, call the store and give reg info off reciept so they can correct her. I had to do this too…they apologized

  44. Anisha

    Today in St. Charles, MO they were $2.99.

    • flattsfan96

      Hi! I’m in St Charles also. I was going to get the reese’s mini pb cups (which they were all out of, had to get the drops) since today was the last day on the coupon. And checked the purex price and was so happy to see them at 2.99. Hopefully there will be some left when I go back with my q’s. I didn’t have the target ones with me, just the mq’s. They also had some on an endcap. this was the mexico rd store.

  45. Agnes

    did anyone managed to get the YELLOW one?
    I havent even seen yellow at Wags and CVS…

    • Kathryn

      The only place I got yellow was Meijer. And that was then they first came out :S

  46. Samantha

    I got mine today!!! I did my first big Target coupon trip and spent $.11 out of pocket for almost $90 worth of stuff!!! I am super excited! Thank you!

    • flattsfan96

      Great job! Most of the time when I try to plan a big trip they are out of almost all the ‘good’ deals. There must be lots of couponers around here. 🙂

    • Agnes

      WOW, Samantha that’s AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I wonder whatwas cashiers reaction to your savings. sometimes they are super nice and say WOW, you did good and sometimes their face says OH NO! LOL. Great job friend!

  47. Stacy

    I just got 2 for free tonight in Central IL! They were marked $4.99 but when I scanned them they did come up $2.99. So excited, thanks for lettting us know!

  48. candace

    $2.99 at Target in Austin, tx!!!! Whoohoo… Got 4 and have enough coupons for two more. My Target has started limiting me again on target coupons per transaction. THey did this before and I ended up getting corp envolved….may have to again. :-/ I hate that!!

  49. Stefany

    I was just wondering if anyone has read mixed reviews on the Purex crystals? I got some free and used them once. While they smell amazing, the two main ingredients are sugar and clay. I’ve heard that these crystals can eventually case problems with your washer, causing residue build up etc. I’d love to go and snag more for free, but not if this product will cause damage to my brand new washer. I’ve also heard that in a few months the makers of the Purex brand will begin selling a new additive that will clean washers. I wonder if this is purely coincidental. I think for now, I’ll stick to my liquid softener.

    • Agnes

      that got me thinking, and sudden price drop. those were like over $6 at first…. Im a bit worried now.
      Maybe there is something suspicious about washing cleaning product comming up.. are they afraid of broken washing machines lawsuits?
      Hmm….I’ll try but I think I will stick to my 2 bottles (and giving the other 2 away)
