Target Trip

So, I went to Target this morning because I had heard that they were having some pretty fantastic deals/sales.  They are, but I think that they are starting to pull some of the stuff because it was pretty hard to find the clearance and yesterday's pictures off of other people's blogs showed aisles of clearanced items.  Oh well.  I had seen some free/cheap deals that I wanted to take advantage of.  I ended up spending $10.54 plus tax, but I saved $39.45.  Not too bad.  My goal is always to save at least 50%.  Here is what I got:

Transaction #1

Scrubbing Bubbles (Originally $6.99)-
      On clearance for $5.94-$1/1 Target Coupon and $5/1 from the Sunday Paper = $0.44

Quaker Oats
      $2.14-$1/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 from the Sunday paper = $0.14

GE Reveal CFL Bulb
     On sale for $5-$1.50/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 from the Sunday paper = $2.50

GE Energy Smart CFL Bulb
     $4.04-$1/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 from the Sunday paper = $2.04

Halls Cough Drops
    $1.19-$0.50/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 here = FREE

Tax  $1.10
TOTAL OOP $5.91 (less than the Scrubbing Bubbles were originally!)

Transaction #2

Scrubbing Bubbles (Originally $6.99)-
      On clearance for $5.94-$1/1 Target Coupon and $5/1 from the Sunday Paper = $0.44

Quaker Oats
      $2.14-$1/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 from the Sunday paper = $0.14

GE Reveal CFL Bulb
     On sale for $5-$1.50/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 from the Sunday paper = $2.50

GE Energy Smart CFL Bulb
     $4.04-$1/1 Target Coupon and $1/1 from the Sunday paper = $2.04

Halls Cough Drops
    $1.19-$0.50/1 Target Coupon and $0.50/1 from All You Magazine = $0.19

Reach Dental Floss
    $0.97-$1/1 from here = FREE

4 Hartz Crunch and Clean Cat Treats
    On sale for $1.49-$1.50/1 coupon from the Sunday paper = 4 FREE

Hartz Crunch and Clean Dog Treats (would have gotten 4, but they only had 1 :( )
    On sale for $2.49-$2/1 coupon from Sunday paper = $0.49

Tax  $1.92
TOTAL OOP  $7.65

There was also a deal for Garnier Nutri-pure Towlettes.  They are on sale for $4.04.  Target has a coupon for $2/1 and there was a $2/1 coupon from the Sunday paper so this would make these $0.04!  No wonder they were all gone!

To see which Sunday papers those coupons were from go to We Use Coupons and look them up in their coupon database.  It will then tell you all the different places a certain coupon can be found (or if you are looking for a coupon, it will tell you if there are any, etc.).  :)
