Every two weeks Target marks down each category even lower in increments. Right after the holidays they mark down every couple of days so don\u2019t let those deals slips you by!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s a handy guide that you can download to make it easier:<a href=\"http:\/\/cardcash-blog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184636\/When-does-Target-mark-down-their-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-591\" src=\"http:\/\/cardcash-blog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184636\/When-does-Target-mark-down-their-1.png\" alt=\"target deals\" width=\"480\" height=\"672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/cardcash-blog\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184636\/When-does-Target-mark-down-their-1.png 480w, https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/cardcash-blog\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184636\/When-does-Target-mark-down-their-1-214x300.png 214w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Price Matching: <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you just buy something at Target and see it the next day for half off at Best Buy? Target will match it within 7 days of purchase. They even match online competitors like Amazon.com. One caveat, it has to be the exact same model number, not just look alike. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Mobile Coupons:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sick of couponing? Target offers mobile coupons that can be sent straight to your phone!<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Super Sales:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Target runs \u201csecret sales\u201d on January 12-13 and July 28-29 for toys. And there are people who stock up for all their children, nieces and nephews, neighbors, students, and friend\u2019s kids birthdays. Make sure you are not stuck behind them on the line.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Make sure you are getting the steepest discounts:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look at the upper right corner, that tells you how discounted the product is. If it says 30 it is marked down 30%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cardcash-blog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184428\/Target-tags1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-590\" src=\"http:\/\/cardcash-blog.s3.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184428\/Target-tags1.jpg\" alt=\"Target-tags1\" width=\"670\" height=\"111\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/cardcash-blog\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184428\/Target-tags1.jpg 670w, https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/cardcash-blog\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18184428\/Target-tags1-300x50.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way to make sure you are getting the largest discount possible, is to look at the price tags. If it ends in either a 6 or 8 (as in $34.36 or $1.38), it will be marked down further within 2 weeks. If it ends in 4 (as in $78.84) that is the lowest price that Target will sell the item.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes there will be random endings, that simply means that the item will continue on its clearance cycle. Every two weeks it will get lowered further.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Rain Checks:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nothing left in that color but you still want that awesome price? You can request a rain check and get it for the sale price.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Discounted Gift Cards:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, when you buy a discounted gift card from CardCash, you are saving an additional percentage off your total. During a flash sale, you can save over 7% off with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardcash.com\/buy-gift-cards\/discount-target-cards\/\" target=\"_blank\">discounted Target gift card<\/a>.
