Thank you Target!!





Scary as it may seem, the retail value of these receipts represent over $48. I paid less than $20. Feel free to add the receipts. When calculating, please note that on the cat litter, the real price is listed second, after the Target coupon, and the same is true for the Renu.

My first transaction was the 2 bags of Starbucks coffee, paying $14.78 after the (2) $1.50 coupons. I received a $5 Target gift card for the purchase. I put it in the car, then got the rest of my agenda.

Purina Cat food 7lbs. $7.49
Tidy Cats litter 20 lb. $6.99
Renu solution $5.99
(2) Ben Gay @ $4.24 ea. = $8.48
(2) Skittles (no shame) @ $.79 ea. = $1.58

After Sales and coupons, and the $5 target Gift Card, my total was $4.53, making the grand total $19.31.

Let it be said that these items are very hard to coupon. And let it also be said that if you bring your empty Starbucks bag to Starbucks, they will give you a free 12 oz. coffee, no purchase necessary. You just have to make it there within 30 days of the expiration of the bag. I have until February 2012. Do you think I will make it? LOL!

So how much is a 12 oz. coffee anyway? $2? So you can add $4 on to my total retail value, making a $50+ purchase less than $20. That is officially 60% savings. Thank you Target!!
