Good one Collin! Hope of doing couponing like you some day!!!:))
Of course you can do it…you’re Collin!
Awww… thanks! 🙂
Has anyone else had a problem with Targets eggs? They are weird. One had blood in it and another the yolk wouldn’t mix. It was totally think. Grossed me out!!! These were from different packages/trips to target.
We buy organic or cage free eggs. 2 days ago I bought target brand eggs grade A (they didn’t had other ones ) and they smell really bad ugh!!! I paid 1.89 And wasted the money on them 🙁
No, never have from Target. I would call customer service or just take it back.
I thought that the coupon for eggs had to be on a 2 dozen flat of eggs. You can use it on 2 cartons?
Yes. I already used one on two cartons.
It says 1/2 dozen or larger- and there are 2 coupons…
Thanks for posting! Looking forward to my Target trip later this week. I hope you feel better! Question, do you ever use reusable bags to get an extra 5 cents off per bag?
Yes, I do… But I sometimes forget. I need to be better about remembering to take them with me. Thanks for the reminder! 🙂
That was our New Year’s Resolution last year and it really helped us get into the habit of taking them!
I can’t find my egg coupon anyway so I guess it doesn’t matter, lol.
thank u so much for the video collin. you always inspire me. thank u so much for all u do. and get well soon Collin. take care
You are so welcome! And thanks… I am feeling a bit better today!
Always love your target runs! How do you know what’s going to be on price cut to plan for your list? Would love a video on how to plan and organize what are hit items to go for! Please! I love to coupon at target but don’t always know how to get all the coupons ready for things on sale or price cut. Thank you 🙂
Shelli
Thanks! I find out about price cuts in different ways – from readers and bloggers emailing deals that they find and from discovering price cuts on my own when shopping.
great vid! hope you feel better collin
I spent $15 on 32 grocery items yesterday. I was so excited! And i could’ve done even better by doing the unilever deal 3x- paying less than $5 each time and getting $5 back.. Could’ve had 9 bottles of hair care along w/my groceries! But that’s ok, i have enough haircare already. And i’m always in target way too long! ☀️
First off hope you feel better Collin. I had it a couple weeks ago and it wasn’t fun. Second, went to Target early this morning and did the Kelloggs frosted mini wheats deal. Only 4 boxes left on the shelf of the reg. variety. Plus I bought 2 packages of GE reveal lightbulb double packs that were marked down to $2.38 a package and stacked 2-$1 MQ’s with 2-$2 Target Q’s and ended up getting the overage toward Reynoldswrap. Nothing beeped and I was shocked that the overage applied to the order. Ended up paying only $1.57 for all of it. Thanks for helping us save, save, save!!
I really liked your video. I love your site and use it daily. I don’t want to sound rude but sometime I would like to see you record your checkout process. That is usually where I run into problems. I can easily put together the deals with how you post them but usually there is issues at the cashier, coupons dont ring, the cartwheel scans wrong, the cashier questions my purchase, they can’t do a price match or dont know how. I want to see you complete some of the complex transactions with all the coupons, text messages, cartwheel and then see your receipt with the total. I know I always have to review my receipt with a fine tooth comb because often things do not come out in the end like they are supposed to. I often return things because of this.
I wonder if she doesn’t include the ring up bc she’d need permission from target?
Make sure you are more informed than the cashier. Start off with smaller transactions so you don’t get overwhelmed during the checkout process, and if things are not ringing up as planned, then don’t be afraid to ask why. Make sure you have the cartwheel coupons scanned last. If the cashier gives you trouble, just politely let her know that you follow a couponing site and thousands of other customers have gotten the same deal and you are getting. If something is not ringing up the way you expected, figure out why and put the item back if they wont give you the deal. You should NEVER have to wait in the customer service return line. You do enough work up front clipping all those coupons and watching Collin’s videos! The cashier can typically override a coupon being rejected if you can show that it is legitimately being used as indicated on the coupon. Also, you typically have to go to customer service to have them price match, so be prepared to wait a bit. However, you are allowed to use coupons on top of the price match, so don’t let them tell you otherwise.
You always have to price match at CS or you are supposed to anyways… Also Target actually has strict rules with taking pictures and taking video… I have heard of Target security taking phones from people or making customers delete taken photos, apparently they are very strict about the competition snooping out prices and yes legally she would have to get release from everyone that is pictured in the video if she did (especially since she publishes it online) … that is probably why she does it and also not to call attention to herself
I agree, I wanted to see the same thing. I was disappointed to get to the end and we’re back in Colin’s kitchen. Like what happened with the Hot Wheels? lol
So… did the register prompt for the $5 or $10 gift card for the Claritin? Thanks!!
It prompted for a $10 Target gift card! Yay! 🙂
Is it just the children’s claritin that is included in the giftcard deal?
Thanks Collin for all your hard work! These videos always motivate me to keep using coupons!
You are so welcome!!
Hope you feel better soon, Collin! I’m hoping to get out to Target tonight and try to score some Starbucks coffee! Another great thing about the deal is the 2 Star Codes that can be applied to my Starbucks Rewards account.
I went to Target at 10am today and the Starbucks scanned at $12.99 on the price checker, even though the signs said $3.49.
Did you check the correct “flavor”? The price is only good on the Starbucks Caffe Verona Blend.
Could you use the Manufacturer’s Coupon for $0.55/1 dozen eggs along with the Target Mobile Coupon?
Hi, Christi. You can use both coupons for the eggs. The manufacturer’s coupon in for .55/2 though, but there is a .50 mobile coupon on both the “spring” and “thanks” Target mobile coupons.
FYI I was at Target today and was so excited to score some cheap Starbucks coffee. Although the coffee had a sign priced at $3.49, it rang up at $12.99 with the price checker. Just be careful Hipsters!
When that happens, I just take a picture of the sign with my phone and show it to them at checkout and they give me the price on the tag as long as its the correct item.
OH, April THAT was smart. I went to customer service & they had ME run back & pull the sign??? HELLO. I don’t see a name badge on my shirt. ugh. I ended up getting it for $3.49 though. It took awhile for them to figure it out.
On a positive note—I would have never looked if it wasn’t for Collin’s awesomeness! Thanks Collin!! and all you other coupon lovers!
WHAT??!! I don’t think people have the concept anymore that they’re at a J.O.B!! That means YOU do the W.O.R.K!!
Exactly Brooke! I can’t stress that enough.
What a smart idea, April. Wish I’d thought of that! I would have loved to score such inexpensive coffee. Maybe I’ll try again tomorrow…. Thanks again!
Thanks guys. I have learned the hard way when I have had to run and do the work so it just makes it so much easier. I do it at every store when I am not sure if the price will ring up right and it works like a charm every time 🙂
I do the same when I ask for a rain check. Saves so much time.
I hope you feel better soon! Thanks for going out and filming this for us….you’re such a trooper. p.s. Your hair looked awesome today!
Awww… you are sweet! 🙂 Thanks for the kind words.
Thank you!! I have been trying to figure out target! lol
You’re welcome! 🙂
I rarely ever comment but I just want to say, Thank you Collin! I was able to get some great things for my girls’ Easter baskets and even make wonderful goodie backs for the neighbors’ kids that are coming over on Easter to celebrate both Easter and my little one’s 4th birthday. Can’t wait to head to target and get some cereal 😀
So glad to hear you were able to get stocked up for Easter! 🙂
Do you need the Toys R us ad to price match at Target? I think I threw mine out:(
Yes you do need the sale ad to price match at Target but at Walmart you don’t necessarily need the ad to price match.
You could also pull up the ToysRUs ad on your phone. 🙂
Here’s what Target states in their Price Match Policy:
For printed ads: please show us the entire printed advertisement. Photos, photocopies, or mobile phone versions of the ad cannot be accepted as verification of a competitor’s printed ad.
For online prices: please show us your mobile device or a printout from a qualifying competitor’s website or Target.com. A Target team member will then verify the match using a Target device.
So first off thank you for all your hard work!!! I just got I just got done shopping at my local target and had the worst experience ever they refused to let me use three of the almay four dollar off coupons because they said I could only use one coupon per transaction the guy was so horrible and I mean like I’m correct I had three things and to my understanding “per purchase” does not mean a transaction.. It’s days like this that I hate as a couponer.
Cynthia, I just wanted to say WE have ALL been there and feel your pain. Seriously. Chin up –& don’t go to THAT cashier again 😉
We have all been there and it doesn’t only happen at Target. It happens to me at Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Etc. Just about the only store I never have issues at is CVS. I know it is frustrating but don’t let it upset you to long.
Awe Cynthia I feel your pain. Last night at Target I had a checker tell me my $5 Target Gift card wouldn’t be good for an hour. I looked at her sweetly but letting her know I’m on to her and said I’ll try my luck on my next transaction and wouldn’t you know the $5 gift card worked. What is it with these Natzi checkers who are just trying to give us couponers a bad time these days? When you know you are right don’t let them get you down. Just politely ask for a manager. If the manager doesn’t work for you get their names and call corporate or do the survey that’s on your receipt for the things you choose to by.
I have had the same experience before also. I went all the way up to the store manager and they all refused to take more than one coupon. It said one per purchase not transaction and they continued to argue with me that it meant the same thing. They even refused to let me ring them up separately. I work for Walmart as a Customer Service Manager I am not an idiot. How is it a whole store does not know the difference. I actually stopped shopping at Target for a year because of that and wouldn’t even take my mom there. I just wanted to believe me not shopping there every week for year would hurt them somehow.
Thanks for the video and all of the coupon deals you post. Without you and other couponing sites I would not get such great deals. Thanks again!! 😀
You are so welcome! 🙂
Awesome Awesome Awesome deals! Thank you for all the time and effort you and your team put into the blog to help us save $$$!
On a side note, is anyone else having issues with Targets coupons printing? It is seriously driving me crazy! i’ve been having problems with it for a week or so now. Does anyone know how to uninstall it on a Mac so I can try reinstalling it?
I’m having issues too! It’s telling me i haven’t chosen any to print, when it shows I have two (or however many) in the print section. Then when it finally works, it prints off the ones from the previous time. I figured out if I go directly to the target site, and not click the link, it works better, but only sometimes. I don’t have a Mac, so no help from me there, just wanted to let you know you aren’t alone in the annoying printable area 🙂
I’ve also been having problems printing Target coupons. I emailed them last week and I did get a reply but it wasn’t really any help at all. Customer service gave me several suggestions about how to print the coupons – all implying that it was something I was or wasn’t doing correctly or a problem with my computer. None of that is true. They did say that they would pass the information on to the right department. I told them that it has to be a programming problem because it appears that they have recently made at least one change on the coupon pages. If I hover my mouse pointer to the top of the coupon, it will now say whether or not it is a Target coupon. If the words “Target Coupon” don’t pop up then I assume that it will just print out as a regular mfr. coupon. That is a feature that will be very helpful if they get everything fixed so that it works properly. I choose coupons and at first they are listed in the upper left corner but when I “click” to go to the next page, all of the coupons I have chosen disappear from the list. Since this happened last wk. to me, I thought that they would have fixed the problem by now but nope as of yesterday it still didn’t work correctly. I haven’t tried it today. When I emailed them, I told them that I wasn’t the only one having a problem printing their coupons. I think there is a phone number on their website so maybe I’ll have to give them a call.
I am having the exact same issues printing Target coupons! It has to be something on their end because it started after a recent update (i.e. the coupons look different, say target or manufacturer above, etc). Super frustrating when this week has so many great deals…
THANKS…I SOOOOOO LOVE WHEN U POST VIDEOS ON HOW TO SAVE…GOING TO TARGET THIS WEEK…

Oh I forgot to include under the Eggo minis: $1 Ibotta rebate!
Where is the MP smoothie coupon??
It’s a target coupon, I just checked to see wording and it looks like it’s gone now! I just printed it last night too.
How do you get the Easter mailer?
Going to try to use the $10 off grocery coupon today. What order do I give it, before or after my MF Q’s? Then Cartwheel at the very end right? Just trying to figure out my precoupon total. Thanks!
Give the $10 off first, then store/mobile/manuf with cartwheel last.
Thanks!
Lol Collin, I always love your videos and I hope you’re feeling better!!
Just wanted to mention that while I was at Target yesterday, my cashier told me that they can now scan your Cartwheel barcode at any time during the transaction! He was very coupon-friendly and gave me a very detailed explanation!
And by “transaction” I meant to say “checkout process” lol
I had this tonight. Every other time I have used cartwheel I gave it to them last, but tonight the cashier first. I looked at my receipt and it was correct. I really do not think there is a specific order to doing it!
Thanks for the deals on the movies! I have had a lot of them sitting on my Amazon wishlist for awhile. Good to grab up blu rays when they go this low!
Feel better Collin!!!
Thank you.
Hope you feel better Collin! ….Love those Target deals 🙂
Thanks, Kim!
Ok I need some help. I go on my catrtwheel and don’t see any of the coupons that Collin is seeing. Is it because of the area that I am in??? Please help!
How strange!? Have you searched or browsed for the specific items?
I had a question about the $10 off $50. Can it be used with target coupons ex. $1 off post cereal target coupon
I’m trying to build a scenario I like but unsure if it works with target coupons or strictly manufactures
They may be combined as long as the purchase requirements for both coupons are met. 🙂
Thanks!
When you text “spring” or “thanks” some of the mobile coupons they send you are the same. Like for the Nabisco wheat thins or the eggs. Can I buy two and use both coupons? Or is it the same coupon and I can only buy one?
Yes you can buy two.. Ex. 2 dozen eggs and have them scan both Spring and Thanks barcodes and $.50 will be taken off each carton.
Hi, April. You can use both of them. There are many duplicates on both “spring” and “thanks”. Just check your receipt to make sure they come off. I had problems this last week and had to go to customer service to get my money back.
They may be the same but the bar code is different
Thanks
Hi Collin– you are our Coupon Hero— feel better and thank you for all you do to help us S-T-R-E-T-C-H our dollars and better yet —not spend our dollars, LOL
God bless and have a great Easter. Just wanted to let people know that our local KMart ad had Barbies and Chelsea dolls (which is Barbie’s little sister) for 2.99 I price matched this and what a great deal!!!
Thank you! 🙂
Please help me clarify— since I live in IL., I could price match the $13 Jungle Book-diamond edition at Wal-mart,, correct??? I did not know if there are issues— I would assume this is a national price? Please assist …Thanks
Yes you can. And you don’t even need a print ad to price match at Walmart. Just tell them the movie is on sale for $13 at Target.
What are the recommended ages on the cootie game?
it says 3+
How did the hot wheels ring up?
I bought the hot wheels tonight. Went to customer service to price match from the kmart ad, and was informed that I could not get both the price match price and the bogo 50% sale too. It was one or the other…!? In the end I was given both, wondering if anyone else had this issue?
How did the hot wheels ring up?
Wish I’d realized Toys R Us had Hot Wheels on sale. Just bought two packs at Target yesterday. Would have been nice to price match!
If they are out of the frozen combo packs when I go to target I might sit down and cry.. I have got to see this movie!
My Target only has the Frozen DVD for $13 and the Combo Pack still priced at $27.99. Anyone else run into this issue? I was disappointed and am wondering if there is anything I can do.
Did you price check ? I just bought it yesterday for $13 the collectors edition.
YES same here! I was so sad. I price checked every copy just to be sure but no go. 🙁
Darn
Collin, I love your site so much!! your videos inspire me every time! hope you feel better. Happy Easter! God bless you and your family! thank you so much for posting all these fantastic deals
Thanks, Misty! You’re so welcome. I am starting to feel better. Happy Easter to you as well! 🙂
Thanks So Much Collin for all you do! Target is by far my favorite store and because of you I love it even more! You make couponing so easy for us! Thanks for doing all the work!
It’s my pleasure, Angel! So glad to help! 🙂
Than you for the hard work. By following your website, I have saved tons of money. I hope you feel better soon!!! I have tried printing the Target’s Mrs. Edwards coupon from two different computers with no success. Did any else experienced same problem?
You’re welcome! I just printed the coupon. Maybe try another browser.
there is a $2.00 off coupon in the children’s claritin 5oz grape!
Awesome deals on cereal this week! I used two of the $3/3 Kelloggs coupons. I bought three mini wheats and three cocoa krispies…I didn’t realize the cartwheel was only good on two boxes of the krispies. So, I would have spent less if I had picked up four boxes of mini wheats and two boxes of cocoa krispies. Just fyi for anyone else who is picking these up! Still a great deal even without the cartwheel discount on one of the boxes 🙂
Are there any printable Starbucks coupons? I didn’t get the 4/16 paper. 🙁
What zipcode is the $3/3 kelloggs coupon? Or is it just not available any longer? Thank You!
Tried to price match the cootie game from the Walmart ad and the girl said you couldn’t do a price match if it was a rollback price? Dumb.
can i use two like target coupons at one time of check out, if i buy two like items?
