got a $5 gift card at Target this week from a different purchase. Cashier cashed it in immediately and gave us the 5 bucks. Couldn't just take $5 off the original purchase though. Funny.
I went to Target.com looking for the 50 cents off a box of Pop Tarts coupon, but I didn't see it? Can anyone provide a link to the coupon on Target.com?

NICE FIND! Also, bonus factor is that the coupons print from that site all on one page. I was worried that it was gonna be 1 coupon per page like a lot of coupon printing sites.

Just got back from Target. Printed 4 of the Target .50 off one coupons and they took all 4! So, I got 4/$9 - $2 in coupons - $5 gift card = $2 for 4 12 count boxes!
I'm going back again in a bit to use the 1st $5 gift card + another 4 coupons and with the next $5 GC I figure I've got free poptarts + made $3
Thanks OP, this is my absolute favorite snack too!

DS,
I gotta call you on this math here. How exactly are you getting a true freebie, let alone making money?!
The first 4 boxes cost you $2 OTD; How are you making $5 on the next 4 to make $3 profit.
Methinks you are double counting GCs.
Still not a bad deal though...

Target has Poptarts 4 for $9
If you buy 4, you get a $5 gift card this week
Target.com has a printable coupon for .50 off 1
Also, use the manufacturer coupon (1.00/2) for another .50 off
I'm confused. $9-$5=$4. $4-.5=$3.5 $3.5-.5=$3
So you'll still pay $3. If you use .5 off of each box that's $2 savings, and you're still paying $1.
Thanks! My sister hasn't bought her 10 items for the Kraft Fuel for School $10.00 rebate. She must have slept thru the Walgreens deals. She bought 12 and used 12 .50 off coupons = $21 and got back $15 worth of gift cards (3 $5 gift cards) all in one transaction. I thought maybe they would limit to only 1 gift card but she got all 3 and the cashier told her that was a good deal and was going to get her some after she got off work. Her purchase will qualify for the $10 Kraft rebate, so she made money on the deal -- $4 plus a ton of pop tarts.

Where is the $10. Kraft rebate?

Here is a link on Fat Wallet about the Kraft $10 rebate, but according to the post it says that the Pop Tarts have to be an 8-count or larger box in order to qualify. But from looking at the ad for Target it looks like these boxes are 12-count boxes so they qualify. Also, please note that ALL TEN ITEMS MUST BE ON THE SAME RECEIPT IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR THE $10 REBATE!
I highly recommend buying 12 boxes in one transaction (one receipt). That will give you 144 tasty Pop Tarts. Then you will pay $27 - $6 (12 50-cent Target coupons) - $6 (6 $1 off 2 boxes of Pop Tarts - can be found in the same TASTE insert that you get the $10 rebate form)...that will bring your total down to $15...then you will get 3 $5 Target gift cards and you can mail away for the Kraft $10 rebate also...so your net cost will be $0 and you will make $10 off the deal (minus your 42-cent stamp, of course).
Look for the TASTE magazine as a Sunday paper insert on 8/5 featuring a $10 MIR for 10 Kellogg's, Eggo or Keebler Items AND $15 worth of store coupons you can use towards the items for the rebate!
Fuel up for School! with great products and get $10 rebate by mail when you send ten proofs of purchase and original store receipt for any combination of these brands: Any Kellogg's ® cereal (12oz. or larger) Any Keebler® product (8oz. or larger) Any Sunshine® product (8 oz. or larger) Any Eggo® product (8 ct. or larger) Any Kellogg's® Nutri-Grain® cereal bar (8 ct. or larger) Any Kellogg's® Special K® cereal bar (6 ct. or larger) Any Kellogg's® Pop-Tarts® Toaster Pastries (8 ct. or larger) Any Kellogg's® Rice Krispies Treats® Squares (8 ct. or larger) Any Kellogg's™ Fruit Flavored Snacks (6 ct. or larger) All products must be purchased in the same transaction.
Requirements
To receive a $10 rebate check, complete and mail the Official Rebate Form with the required original UPC symbols along with an original dated cash register receipt dated between 8/5/07 and 9/30/07 with the qualifying products circled. (Photo copies are not accepted).
Official Rebate Form can be found in retail stores nationally in the Kellogg's® TASTE Magazine Back to School issue.
Official Rebate Form will also be available in National Newspapers in the FSI coupon section the week of August 5, 2007.
Limit one $10 rebate per household or address. Requests must be postmarked by 9/30/2007 and received by 10/11/2007
Quote directly from the 2008 form: Any Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Toaster Pastries (8ct or Larger) She bought 12ct so this worked out great for her! The Fudge Stripes, rice krispies or cheez-its would all work on this deal as long as all 10 on one receipt (buy 12 for 3 gift cards) The 2008 Taste magazine had a bunch of coupons including the $1 off 2 rice krispies. FYI - MrVietnam, you have linked to a 2007 thread not the 2008 one.
NOTE: Updated for today YMMV - I bought a combination of 12 items today and the cashier tried to say only one offer per purchase but couldn't produce anything that said this was the rule so she gave me all three. I was polite but firm and had the ad.

I answered that question in my previous post, but I will repeat it for you. The $1 off 2 boxes of Pop Tarts coupon is found in the same newspaper insert that you will find your official rebate form. It was included in the Sunday newspaper a few Sundays back with the other Sunday coupons. It is called TASTE and is a supplement by Kellogs.
By the way if you look carefully at the coupons they have 2 $1 coupons in the supplement. One is for $1 off 2 boxes any variety Pop Tarts. The other is for $1 off two boxes of vanilla milkshake or strawberry milkshake flavor Pop Tarts. I was successfully able to use both coupons even though I didn't buy the vanilla or strawberry milkshake varieties. The coupon scans just fine. The only problem you may have is if the cashier carefully reads its terms and realizes you didn't buy any of that variety.
What a deal! 144 Pop Tarts and when all is said and done they pay you to take them.

Specifically the pop tarts coupons are in the Red Plum insert from (fixed) 8/3. There is a Kellogg's section in the insert, the edge is green and it should stick out a little on the side. All the coupons and the rebate form are towards the end of the Kellogg's section. MrVietnam's information is perfect. It's a great deal, now I just need to be able to find 12 packs of them.
edit: yes, Bill, it was, I was just coming back to edit. The Kellogg's insert was 8/3. I got it confused with the Pop Tarts coupon that is also in RP 8/17 (it's for the vanilla but as stated with the 8/3 version, it should also scan). Sorry. I guess I'm more tired than I thought.
Actually, I think the Kelloggs insert (with rebate form and coupons) was in the 8/3 paper, at least that's when it was in my paper.

I am having problems locating the Target .50 coupons. I have checked AFC and the Target website with no luck. I find other coupons, not the Poptart ones. If anyone can assist me I would appreciate it.
Look at Dark Mistress' post on the first page. I clicked on that yesterday and it worked fine for me. Also Dark Mistress put the link on the quick summary so you can click it there too. I just clicked on it now to confirm it is working and I found the Pop Tart coupon. You have to scroll down a while (it is about half way down the page), but it is there. Pop Tarts are just a click away. Good luck. This is a great deal. They actually pay you to buy their Pop Tarts in bulk.

Kraft Fuel for School $10.00 rebate is from 2007. Won't fly without time machine. Last time machine deal is now dead. Only those who got in on that deal will be able to qualify, but that's too many hoops....

If somebody has the Vocalpoint coupons (the special K ones)they're $1 off one product and they work fine on the Poptarts.
Credit goes to MISTERCHEAP for making us all aware of the deal.

-$5.00 (gift card) -$2.00 (4 x .50 Target coupon) -$2.00 (2 x 1.00 manufacturer coupon)
= $0
Have you done it yourself? I've never seen target allow 2 coupons for any one item. You can either use mfr coupon or Target coupons for same item. All coupons used at at target will show a line number pointing to original line where the item was purchased. I've tried it several times but their system will not let you use two coupons on same line number. For example, if you can combine a GE $2 off any CFL and Target $3 off one CFL, that will make it free. Believe me - I've tried it several times but no go.
In this case best bet will be to use 2 target coupons plus 2 mfr coupons. Mfr coupons are $1 off 2 and target is $0.50 off 1. So technically you can use both coupons for purchase of two Poptarts. And if the computer allows it or you get a willing cashier, they can ring each coupon on a seperate line number.
So according to my calculations, your best price may be $9 - $2 (mfr) - $1 (target) - $5 Target GC = $1. A super excellent deal but not free.

I have used both manufacturer and target coupons for the same item all the time at target. I have seen both coupons under the same line, if not, one will go below. These items will not zero out as you are still paying cash for them and getting the gift card. I have also used multiples of Target (same coupon) and other coupons with no problem at my Target.
I actually haven't tried this deal, because if I do they will get in my mouth. : ) But, I know it would work here.
YOu may also be able to get these coupons on eBay. I saw some yesterday...unless they have all sold out.
I have done this offer using 12 50-cent Target store coupons and 4 $1 off two boxes manufacturer's coupons. Works fine without a hitch. Store coupons and manufacture coupons can be combined at most any store and Target is no exception.

The rule at Target is one manufacturer AND one Target coupon per item. Some employees are not aware of this rule but it is corporate policy. However, the stores can limit the number of printed Target coupons you use at their discretion.
I copied this from helpme363 at families.com but it is identical to the Target coupon policy I have seen posted before. I'd suggest printing it and taking it with you. I can't count the number of times I've had to use mine.
TARGET POLICY
Dear Target Guest,
Coupons are a great way to save even more when shopping at Target, and we make it easy to use them at our stores. But because of the variety of coupons available to our guests, we do have some guidelines for how coupons can be redeemed at Target:
-- We accept two kinds of coupons: Target-issued coupons and manufacturer-issued coupons. -- We'll accept one Target coupon and one manufacturer coupon for the same item, unless either coupon prohibits it. -- We can't give Cash Back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item; in that case, we'll adjust the value of the coupon to equal the price of the item. -- We can't accept coupons from other retailers, or coupons for products not carried in our stores. -- All valid coupons should be presented to the cashier at the time of sale.
I apologize for any disappointment this may have caused you.
Have questions or want more information about using coupons at Target? Check with a Guest Services Team Leader at your store. You can also give us a call at (800) 440-0680, or visit us on Target.com. Either way, we're here to help!
Thanks for shopping with us. We'll see you again soon at Target.
SafetyDance said: crazycool said: Target store in San Mateo is the worst, they don't take any printed coupon including from their own website. All they said is "I cannot do anything for you." What kind of customers service is that? Target should fire her, why Target hire someone cannot do anything for their customers?
Why chastise her? It's obviously a management decision. Fraud is rampant, they are just trying to protect themselves.
Management decision? She is completely wrong and impolite. She can said "We won't accept any computer printer coupons." instead of "I cannot do anything for you." The way she talked just like a waiter ask you "What do you want?" instead of "What can I do for you.". How can a floor manager can talk to their customers like that?
I called their customer service number and file a complaint, and she also talk to that manager at the store to make sure she understand Target will take any computer printer coupons except the $5 off $20 coupon.
If enough people file complaint on the same person at the same store, I hope Target will really do something on it.
