Hi Darla! According to this Target Press Release, the 20% discount will be valid either in stores or online.
So this discount can be used on anything? I wanted to get my daughter a small tv for her apartment at college. I also need the dryer brush and a flat iron.

Thank you for this list of exclusions. This helps!
Yay! Glad to know it was helpful! You’re welcome! 🥰
Does this apply to paraprofessional (1-1 Special Education) as well? I didn’t see it listed.
Hey Kristi! I did find the details on eligibility! “Teachers, staff, and faculty employed by K-12 schools and colleges/universities in the United States. Daycare center and early childhood learning center teachers. Home school teachers.”
You can find more in the fine print here.
Just be sure to head here to verify your status. Hope this is helpful! 🥰
When I try to add the offer, it says “offer unavailable.” Any advice?
So sorry for the troubles, Angela! Were you able to verify your teacher status first?
Yes, it says I am verified!
Hmm. Are you by chance on the app or on a mobile device? If so, you might switch over to a laptop or desktop browser or log out and back in to your account. I just clicked through and am able to save the offer to my Target account. If still having troubles, you might reach out to customer service at 1 (800) 440-0680. Hoping that one of these options does the trick for you!
Thanks!
You’re welcome! 🥰
When I go to settings, it doesn’t give me the option to verify. Is this perhaps only on the regular site and not mobile AP?’
Hey Murielle! If you’re on the Target app, try going to “My Target” in the bottom right-hand corner, then clicking the gear icon for settings in the top right-hand corner. From there, there should be a “Teacher verification” option. ❤️
I tried as a homeschool teacher as I homeschool my daughter, and there is no official paperwork that Michigan requires for you to have to homeschool with a homeschool name on it? Says I can try again, I read their fine print but there is nothing I have stating Im an official homeschool teacher, other than my classroom that’s in my dining room, curriculum bought etc. Has any other Homeschool Parent done this and what did you need to submit?
I made a homeschool ID card with my pic and school name. Sent that and letter from school district that says we are homeschooling
That was 3 years ago and I’m still verified
Thanks, Jen that was a good idea. Can I ask if the letter from your district is the one you sent saying you were pulling your child to homeschool? Or a different type of letter?
Thanks so much for sharing this helpful homeschool verification info! 🤗
Hi, I am a teacher and would love the aqua Target bins that are pictured! However, my Target has deeper blue bins right now. I was wondering if the photo that is pictured is from this current year or last year. From my understanding, the green and aqua bins are last year’s models. TIA!
Hi Debbie! Those pictures are current (we took them in June) — so hopefully you’ll be able to find those Aqua bins!
