Free Soda at Target for RedCard Holders

From December 7, 2014 through December 13, 2014, anyone with a Target RedCard can get a free small soda at the store's cafe. It's a limit of one drink per person for each visit.

They're also going to be offering a 72-hour special savings from December 14, 2014 through December 16, 2014. Select Target brands will offer RedCard holders an extra 10% off. This is above the everyday 5% savings that you normally receive.

Remember that while Target offers that 5% off everyday when you use your RedCard, the interest rate will quickly add up if you do not pay your Target bill in full every month. Please use your credit responsibly.

Free Credit Monitoring From Target and ProtectMyID

Target wants to help protect their customers following their recent data breach. Head over to creditmonitoring.target.com for a free year of credit monitoring through ProtectMyID. It's been recommended by credit experts to accept the free offer, however type the address into your web browser and do not click the link directly from any email or website (including here) to be sure that the site is correct.

I already have an account with ProtectMyID through my AAA membership. It is a great service that will email you anytime something changes on your credit report.

The account provided through Target will include one year of monitoring. The account provided with AAA will include monitoring as long as you have AAA. I'm not sure about other differences because I know ProtectMyID offers different levels of protection.

Free Purina Beggin' Strips at Target

Right now, you can pick up some free dog treats at Target using a great coupon directly from Purina's website. Head over and print out two coupons for $3 off any one (1) package of Purina brand Dog Snacks. Purina Beggin' Strips are on sale at Target for 2 for $5 which means that you can get two free bags of dog treats. Some Targets offer overage on coupons which means that the extra $1 towards a different item in your cart. This is the company policy but I've heard of some areas not honoring it.

If you don't have a dog, please consider picking up some treats for your local shelters. Even dogs without families love treats.

Help a School By Voting in Target's Give With Target Promotion

It's back to school season and Target is running a great promotion. On Facebook, you can vote for any school in the country during their Give With Target. Each school that receives a minimum of 25 votes will receive a gift card equivalent to $1 per vote. That means that you can help a local school with just a few clicks of the mouse. You may vote once every five days for any school.

If you don't know what school to vote for, my students would love some extra supplies form Target. Tanner Duckrey Elementary serves a community where over 90% of our families live in poverty. Extra funds from Target for school supplies would be helpful in this time of a budget crisis.

There is a new deal on Groupon today for Target but it is only available on the Groupon mobile app. Either download or open the app. If the Target deal is not featured, type Target into the search engine. You'll find a $10 mobile gift card that will only cost you $5.

Hasbro Games Under $5 After Black Friday Sale and Rebate

If you love classic board games or need some inexpensive gifts for a secret Santa, kid, or other reason, I recommend checking out the Hasbro games at Target for Black Friday.

The games are on sale for $7 each but they are even cheaper when you use the Game Night Rebate that is currently being advertised on tv by Neil Patrick Harris.

The rebate works in increments of two games and is good for a maximum of twelve games. For two until eight games, the rebate is $2.50 per game. If you buy ten or twelve games the rebate goes up. The final price of the games will range from $3.67 (twelve games) to $4.50 (two games).

The rebate is for select games and Target sale is also select games. The following is a list that will work for this deal:

• Connect 4
• Jenga
• Monopoly
• Operation
• Scrabble

If I make it to Target, I'm going to pick up a few games. For under $5 these will be great for my classroom and Toys for Tots.

Discounts on Ingredients for Green Bean Casserole

If you're family is like mine, a green bean casserole is a necessary side dish for Thanksgiving. The basic recipe is two cans of green beans, one can of cream mushroom soup, and crunchy onions. Some people prefer fresh beans and others prefer frozen. Another variety is french style (shredded beans) versus regular cut. However you make your green beans, there are a few coupons and deals to help you out.

Green beans - Check out SmartSource for a coupon to save 50¢ any four (4) cans of Del Monte® Green Beans 14.5 oz or larger. These cans are on sale at Target for $0.65 which will make them $0.53 each after the coupon if you buy four.

Cream of Mushroom Soup - Check out Coupons.com to get a coupon for $1.00 off any four Campbell’s Condensed soups. Use this coupon at Target, where the Cream of Mushroom soup is on sale for only $0.60 which makes the $0.35 each after the coupon if you buy four.

Remember that coupons from Coupon.com can earn you Swagbucks. Just head over to Swagbucks and select "coupons" under the earn heading. Each coupon you redeem after printing from Swagbucks will earn you 10 Swagbucks.

Crunchy Onions - No green bean casserole is complete without that delicious onion crunch. French's is the most common brand of these onions that you will find in the stores. Head over to French's website for a coupon good for $0.30 off any French's French Fried Onions.

If your local grocery store matches ads and doubles coupons, take the Target ad over to save even more. I've never seen the Campbell's soup under $1 before coupons so this is a great sale.

If you buy these great deals but can't use all the cans, please consider bringing them to your local food bank. You'll still save money and help others.

Official Black Friday Ad from Target

Target is the first store I've seen to post an official Black Friday flier on their website. They have some good deals including a $10 gift card when you spend over $50 you spend before noon (select departments).

If you've been waiting to buy a Nook, this might be your year. The Nook Simple Touch will be $49. I personally prefer this type of e-reader to a tablet because there is no glare on the screen and the battery lasts a long time.

Another deal that is worth looking at will be the $60 iTunes giftcard pack for only $50.

Get 10 SmartOnes Meals for $0.99 Each at Target

Target is running a promotion this week on SmartOnes frozen meals. When you buy ten meals at $1.89 each, you will get a $5 Target gift card back. That means you'll get 10 meals for $1.39 each. Already that's a cheap price for frozen meals but there is a coupon available to make this deal even better.

Head over to Eat Your Best to print a coupon for $4 off 10 SmartOnes frozen entrees. You will be prompted to create an account, but it's free.

After the coupon, your total out of pocket will be $14.90 and you'll get the $5 gift card. So the final cost for the 10 meals will be $9.90 or $0.99 each.

Free PaperMate Pens at Target

Head over to Target's website and print out the coupon for $1 off PaperMate writing instrument. These are currently priced under $1 for back to school shopping.

$20 for a $25 Fandango Gift Card from Target

Target is currently hosting Bonus Black Friday. The deals will begin tomorrow (July 20, 2012) for the public, however if you are a Red Card holder you can get the discount today.

The deal I want to draw your attention to is the $25 Fandango gift card for $20. That discount alone is good, but Red Card holders still get their 5% off ($1) and free shipping which makes the final cost of the gift card $19.

The discount will not appear on the item, but you will see it during checkout before you submit your order. I didn't see it reflected in my cart until after I entered my billing information.

Possible Free First Aid Supplies at Target

There is a great coupon right now available for Target. You can print a coupon for $0.75 off an up & up first aid item (Target's own brand). Some smaller items are priced under $0.75 so this coupon can lead to free supplies for your first aid kit. Remember that you can print coupons out twice.

Possible Free Comet Stainless Steel Cleanser at Target

Right now you might be able to get free Comet Stainless Steel Cleanser at your local Target. It's not currently on sale, so prices may vary based on your location but the stacked coupons will total $2 which covers the $1.99 that most Target Stores currently have the product priced at.

A manufacturer's coupon for $1 off is located at Coupons.com. I recommend heading over to Swagbucks to print the coupon so that you get points after redeeming. The image on Coupons.com shows Walmart's logo, but the coupon is a manufacturer coupon which means you can redeem it anywhere.

Target is offering an additional $1 off coupon which can be stacked with the manufacturer's coupon for a total of $2 off a bottle of Comet Stainless Steel Cleanser.

Free Sample of Starbucks K-Cups

This is probably the first time I've ever seen a free sample of Starbucks k-cups. Head over to Target's sample page and you can request your free sample. You have to qualify for this sample, but that's basically saying that you own a Keurig and stuff. However, if you didn't own a Keurig why would you be requesting k-cups that you couldn't brew? Enjoy!
