Amazing Deals & Freebies at Target

There are some great deals at Target right now. Right now Target is running a Buy 5 selected Quaker items & get a $5 gift card promo. Well, the Quaker Express Oatmeal cups are only $1.19 here in WA & as cheap as 99 cents elsewhere in the nation. So, I bought 5 cups for a total of $5.95 but got back a $5 gift card, making each oatmeal cup 19 cents! The cashier said to me "I'm gonna go buy some" however, I bought the last 5 on the shelf. I didn't tell him that, though!

Also, there are multipacks of Dove on clearance at the end of the aisle in the pharmacy/cosmetics area. They are $3.38 & come with 4 bars of soap & a travel sized shower gel. They have the traditional Dove bars & the Dove Men+Care as well. Additionally, Orbit multi pack gum (3 packs) is on sale $2/4. There are tons of other deals as well, but this is what I focused on. I'll break down my transactions for you:

#1: 2 Dove Men+Care packs (8 bars of soap & 2 travel sized shower gels) $3.38 x 2 = $6.76
- $1.75 off Dove Men+Care MQ x 2 = - $3.50
- $1 off Dove Men+Care TQ x 2 = -$2 (Target will stack a MQ with their own Q)
= $1.26 + tax = $1.38

#2 2 regular Dove multi packs (8 bars of soap & 2 travel sized shower gels) $3.38 x 2 = $6.76
- $1.25 off Dove 4 bar or larger MQ x 2 = - $2.50
= $4.26 + tax = $4.66

#3 5 Quaker Easy Express Oatmeal $1.19 x 5 = $5.95 = received $5 gift card

#4 1 Dove Men+Care pack (4 bars of soap & 1 travel sized shower gel) $3.38
- $1.75 MQ (above)
- $1 TQ (above)
1 Orbit multi pack gum (3 packs) $2
- $1 off Orbit multipack
= 2.38 + tax =$2.60 - Gift card = Free (& $2.40 left on gift card)

To summarize, I purchased 20 bars of Dove soap, 5 travel sized Dove shower gels, 5 Quaker oatmeal cups, & 3 packs of Orbit gum for only $11.99 & still have $2.40 on a gift card to spend. Not too shabby! If you want to score on the Quaker deal, head out ASAP because they are selling out fast. I bought the last 5 in Everett, & called Lynnwood. Lynnwood said they don't carry the cups (seems weird....but that's what they said) but she told me that Lake Stevens, Marysville, Redmond, & Northgate have a bunch. Also, there are other products that qualify for the deal, this was just the cheapest way to get the gift card. And note that only the brown sugar flavor of the cups counted towards the deal. I have no idea why, but that's the only one that was labeled.
