Well here’s a deal that’s right up my alley as it involves an entertainment magazine and a Starbucks beverage! 🙂 Through July 5th, head to Target, purchase a copy of People Magazine AND a Starbucks Blueberry Acai Refresher 11.5 oz and you’ll snag a FREE $5 Target gift card. Check it out…

Target Deal Scenario:
Buy 1 People Magazine $4.99
Buy 1 Starbucks Blueberry Acai Refresher 11.5 oz $1.50 (the gift card offer works with this flavor only!)
Total = $6.49
Use the $1/1 Starbucks Refresher coupon found here
Plus, use the $1/1 People Magazine coupon found here (note that this coupon prints w/ “Reedemable at Walmart” but it is a regular manufacturer’s coupon)
Pay $4.49
Get a $5 Target gift card
Final Cost Better than FREE!
And note that after checking out, I received two Catalina coupons – one valid for $1/3 Starbucks Refreshers and another valid for $0.50/1 People Magazine!

Also, if you are a fan of Skinny Cow Ice Cream, keep your eyes peeled for the large box of Skinny Cow Limited Editions Ice Cream Sandwiches 12-count! Regularly priced at $8.19, it is rumored to be ringing up at only $3.50 so be sure to price check even if it is not marked on sale at your store!

(Thanks, Totally Target!)

    Cool! Thanks! I have so many free magazines but this is a good deal. I love doing the gift card deals because it’s like your getting freebies if your going to do more shopping 🙂
    (I usually spend less than $5 and get the gift card back 😃👍)

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Unfortunately, that coupon has reached its print limit! Darn!

  2. Diana

    Who had the refreshers for $1 making them free?

    • mel

      Walgreens, but I believe that was week.

    • Amie

      It’s Walgreens and it starts the 29th. I have my coupons all printed with a sticky note on them to remind me where and when to use them 🙂

    • HollyS

      $1 QP not $!

  3. meghan

    i think it is walgreens

  4. Lesley

    There is a $1.00 shopmium rebate

  5. Suzy

    Anyone else try the Skinny Cow boxes to see if they scan for $3.50?

  6. Ciera

    There is a Shopmium rebate for $1 on this weeks People magazine and use referral code GGMKCGRN when you signup to get a offer for a FREE Lindt bar!

    • brandice

      Does the bar come in the mail…seems like it would melt in this Ga heat

      • lcdunlea

        You get a purchase and get a rebate back on the Lindt bar.

        • lcdunlea

          I tried to cancel that as it makes no sense! You go to the store and buy a Lindt bar and then get a rebate back from Shopmium.

      • Ciera

        It’s kind of like Ibotta you purchase the item then scan barcode and submit picture of receipt and once approved they deposit the money in your Paypal account.

  7. Deanna

    This link still has prints on it for the magazine if you want to add it to the deal. I just printed one. Note it does say on it in tiny print “redeemable at Walmart” but it is a manf. q

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Yay! I just added this – thanks! 🙂

  8. Suzy

    I just ran up to Target and my Target only has 6 count Skinny Cows priced at $3.99 :((

    • Lin

      Me too! Instead bought the magnum with the target q 1/2 and 1.25 Manu q cause I was in the mood for ice cream!

  9. Donna

    South florida: skinny cow 12 ct as shown above ARE indeed ringing up $3.50 and free with 5 lean cuisines!!

    • Brindha

      My target had the free skinnycow free with 5 lean cuisine but no 12 count boxes in ohio.

      • Brindha

        I did not find the people mag giftcard offer in my store:(

        • jac

          It wasn’t advertised at my store, but I scanned on the price checker and saw that it and the refreshers were both priced at the advertised prices. I took a chance and bought them, and sure enough, the $5 gift card offer was live!

          It’s worth trying even if not marked.

  10. Kelli

    i can’t find the coupon for the refreshers

    • Ally

      me either 🙁

    • katie

      I had trouble too… so i tried on my iPhone and there was a link to have the coupon e-mailed! it worked!!

      • lcjohnson

        I had print the coupon from Google Chrome. It would not show in Internet Explorer.

  11. Michelle

    I tried a few flavors of the Starbucks refreshers when there was a previous deal at Walgreens and I can’t say I like them at all. Don’t waste your money on them and stick to the iced coffees

    • Katrina

      I actually like them alot. I am usually a coffee drinker, too.

  12. Allison

    I was just going through my junk mail today and I got a SS coupon insert, inside were 2 $1 off People magazine. Oh, i’m in south florida.

  13. Erika

    Just got back from Target in Dallas, TX and tho it was not advertised, it surely worked!! Btw i also purchased a 12 pack of Nestea – raspberry flavor that were on sale for 2.99 and used the $1/1 total for everything was $6.55 got back a $5 GC what a deal!!

  14. Diana

    I found the refreshers at my target! Yay! Bought 1 mag and refresher for $2.48! And did 2nd transaction w/my giftcard! Sweeet! 🙂
    And got another free speedstick spray.
    Has anyone tried using the m&ms mastercard giftcard at stores? I’ve won 3x already!!😃😃😃😃😃😃👍

    • shireen

      Thanks for the reminder about the m&m gift card- did not win once also after multiple tries but my husband won

      • mel

        Wow Congrats! I’ve been playing everyday to the tune of Sorry, you didn’t win!

  15. Donna

    How do you get the free gift card? Do they give it to you at Target? Went there today and they were clueless about the deal.

  16. Olivia

    Unfortunately, just did this deal & the GC offer did not pop up. I’m in So Cal… booo

  17. Elise

    The cashier had to manually give me $5 off. The deal showed up in the register, but the refresher was a different price in my store, which is why it didn’t automatically come up.
