Saved 76% This Week

I finally made it to Target for some coupon shopping. I've been reading about some fantastic deals, but Target was always my $100 store. I was reluctant to face the temptations. I put blinders on and headed straight to the items on my list. I'll start posting Target deals now that I seem to have Target under control.

  2. LOL! I think she means, "I can't go to Target without spending $100"
    I know I seem to have that problem too! ;)

  3. I love Target deals. Sometimes I have problems with certain cashiers, but for the most part, it goes great.

  4. Earthy Mama has it right. I love Target. Before couponing, I would go to Target for only a bottle of shampoo and spend $100.

    Ditto on the $100 Target comment. I go totally for just 1 small item and WHAM! $100 spent.

  6. ebocage- Now, I'm going to think WHAM! everytime I walk into Target. I always felt that way, you just coined the word.
