I called Corporate today because I was very worried about the poor nice cashier getting in trouble. This is what Corporate told me. They leave it to the store’s manager to make the final decision as the managers are Corporate’s eyes and ears. However, they would advise that the store first scan the coupon and if the coupon looks legit and scans without a problem, it should be accepted. However, if it is not printed clearly or looks like a hoax or doesn’t scan properly, then they do have the right to reject it. Also, if for any reason the store rejects the coupon, like you stated, Corporate also advised calling them at the store so there could be a quicker resolution with all parties involved.

At this time, Corporate has assured me the cashier will not be in trouble and also complimented as the cashier had handled the situation correctly. And also Corporate will speak with the manager involved in this incident to explain regarding the Internet MF coupons issue. Corporate was very nice.

Also, I had encountered an issue where the new Target computer system tries to categorize your purchases (Beauty, Electronics, etc.) and I was told that even if the coupon was listed in the wrong category, that should not affect the coupon’s validity OR affect any future price adjustment issues with a product going on sale for a lower price than what was paid at the time.
The new system is a test trial and Corporate would appreciate feedback on the new category receipts.

Hope this information is helpful! Have a wonderful day yourself

Your best bet so that you don’t have future problems, is the next time you go to that Target, ask for the manager that told you that you can not use internet printable coupons. Call guest relations right from the store and ask to speak to a guest relations manager. Explain to the guest relations manager that the store manager is telling you that they can not accept internet coupons and they will speak to that store manager. All things will be cleared up and hopefully you will NEVER have a problem at that store again.

Guest relations told me it is more effective to call directly from the store when there is a problem, so that all parties involved have come to a resolution.

I would carry the guest relations phone number with you just in case they tell you there is no number.

Sorry you are having so much trouble. It’s really a shame that we have to go through all this when these rules are clearly Target’s corporate policy.

Have a wonderful day!

The Target coupons found on their website are good for the product specified. If the coupon does not state the size (ie.: ounces, quantity, or type) you can purchase any size or variety regardless of what the picture is. Guest Relationsn said they put a picture to give you an idea of what you can purchase with the coupon.

As far as the manufacturer coupons, you can stack one Manufacturer coupon with one Target coupon for each item you are purchasing.

There is no limit of manufacturer coupons in one transaction, just one per item you are purchasing!

I have added these changes to my post. I hope this helps clarify any other questions.

Also the other day I was told when using a Target coupon it had to be on the item pictured. Do you know what thier policy is on that?

Thanks, again!

This is really helpful, though. It’s good to know their actual policy, so that you’ll know whether the store is wrong or not. thanks!!!!
