Had an awesome trip to Target Today!

Here is my breakdown for this trip:
 Total Before Coupons: $48.93
Money OOP: $6.70
Still Have: $5 giftcard and $10 Phizer Rebate
Final Price = $8.30 MONEY MAKER!
117% Savings!!!
I like those kind of numbers :) 

Here are my transactions:


 Transaction 1:

Buy 3 Stayfree Pads - $2.89 ea.
Buy 3, Receive $5 Target Giftcard
Use (3) $2/1 Stayfree Product from 7/22 SS or 8/26 SS
Pay - $2.67, Receive $5 Target Giftcard
Final Price = FREE + $2.33 MONEY MAKER!

Transaction 2:
Repeat of above transaction.

Transaction 3:
Buy (3) Children's Liquid Advil - $6.09 ea.
Buy (1) Junior Strength Advil Chewables 24ct. - $5.09
Buy 2, Receive $5 Giftcard
Use (2) $1.50/1 Children's Advil Printable HERE
Use (2) $1/1 Advil Products HERE
Use $1/1 Advil Pain Relieve Product Target Coupon
Use $1/1 Advil Pain Relief Product Target Coupon (2 different coupons)
Use (2) $5 Giftcards from prior purchase 
Pay - $6.36, Receive 2 more $5 Giftcards
Submit for $10 Mail in Rebate WYB 3 select Phizer Products 8/26 RP (has to all be in same transaction for rebate)
Final Price = $3.64 MONEY MAKER! 

 (GIVEAWAY ALERT: I'm guessing the Phizer Rebate form is regional as my paper didn't have it so I had to order. But good news for 2 lucky readers I ordered a few extras and will do a giveaway later today so watch for it on Facebook.)

I Used my 2 $5 giftcards from above and a $5 Store coupon (see below) for only $1.36 OOP
 (The Berry flavored Advil was not ringing up for the giftcard deal so they gave me a $5 Target 
coupon credit to my purchase instead of giving me a $5 giftcard. Worked great for me to keep 
my out of pocket lower. Watch out for the Berry Flavor when doing this deal.
The sign was on the shelf for the giftcard so there should be no hassle if you just let
them know.)



 Transaction 4:
Buy (1) Colgate Total - $3.49
Buy (1) Colgate Optic White - $3.49
Buy (1) Up&Up 2pk. Toothbrush's - $1.25
Use (2) $0.75/1 Colgate Toothpaste, any 4 oz or larger from 8/26 SS
Use (1) $1/1 Colgate Total Advanced Target Coupon
Buy 3 participating Oral Products, Receive $5 Giftcard
Pay $5.73 ( Use Giftcards from Prior purchase so $0 out of pocket)
Receive $5 Giftcard
Final Price =  $0.24 ea.

If you can find 3 of the Up&Up toothbrush packs in-stock
this is an easy Money Maker with no coupons needed.

It would look like this:
Buy (3) Up&Up 2pk. Toothbrushes - $1.25 ea.
Pay - $3.75, Receive $5 Target Giftcard
Final Price = $1.25 Money Maker!

(I usually wouldn't pay for toothpaste or toothbrushes but there was only 1 Up&up 
pack left on the shelf so I just put the above deal together on the spot. Still a
great deal on a much needed donation item.)
