Target - April 16th 2012

Target Scenario

Target is a fairly simple place to coupon shop. You can find many printable In-Store coupons on their website. These coupons can be stacked with Manufacturer coupons to maximize your savings. Frequently, some Target stores have additional policies that are not listed in their official coupon policy. For example, some Targets only allow 3 like coupons per shopping trip regardless of what the coupon states. Talk to a manager if you are unsure about the store's coupon policy.
