TARGET COUPON MASTER THREAD POST YOUR TARGET COUPONS HERE SO THAT WE CAN SHARE, RE-USE, AND AVOID HAVING TO WASTE ENTIRE SHEETS OF PAPER FOR ONLY ONE COUPON!
Background: So the geniuses at Target figured it would be a good idea to make it so that their online coupons require an Active-X plugin. In addition to this nuisance, they also want to make it so that you can only print each coupon once. Furthermore, they waste an entire sheet of paper to print one coupon. If you are as fed up with Target coupons as much as me, let's make this the Target Coupon Master Thread!
In the master thread, post scanned images of the target coupons.
How do you do this? Go to target.com, click on coupons (or use the link below), install the active-x plugin (coupon activator), and start printing out coupons. From there, SCAN the coupons into your computer using your favorite scanning software. From there, you will post the coupons directly onto an image hosting website like imageshack.us
Once you have those posted, insert the images directly into your post by using the HTML codes for pictures (your picture upload site will help you) or just post the simple link directly to the image
Thanks for starting this thread. I hope it is successful and permitted to remain. Often coupons are removed prior to their expiration date, and more importantly can sometimes be hard to find on the site.
No HTML allowed, but you can use the link tool to link to the picture url. And this thread will save no paper at all since you have to print the coupon in order to scan it.
Just FYI you can always go into the Target store and use their on-line kiosk (generally located near the front door) to print out the coupons you want. Waste their paper instead of yours.

Why don't you just get one of those apps that allows you to print to an image? That would save more paper and avoid crappy scans that are going to get rejected when you try to use them.

All coupon "printer software" that sites make you load makes it near impossible to use PDF printer or print multiple sets

Have you tried this? I went to Portland, ME store to try printing $10 off Leapster Explorer, but it would not print (had to install software). Asked at service desk, they confirmed that coupons can't be printed at kiosks.
When Target changed their coupon policy, they disabled the ability to print from their kiosks. I loved it before they changed it because I always forgot to print my coupons and because since we were printing them there on their 'special' blue paper, they couldn't argue the validity of them!

You need a better printer. Many printers will let you set the quantity from the printer side on their control panel. The only down side is if you forget to reset it, you get 5, 10, or 20 copies of whatever you print next.
You can also change copies in "Printing Preferences" (NOT Preferences) for the printer. Depending on your OS (behavior is different between XP/Vista/Win 7), the Target printer can't detect the change.
I am going to start printing out coupons and posting them later tonight. Hope we can get enough constantly on here to sticky this thread.
Also to address all of your questions:
1. You can NOT print the target coupons out with a virtual printer (pdf or otherwise) because "coupon activator" disables such measures. 2. The easiest thing to do is the original method I mentioned - Print the coupon, scan the coupon (scan as a jpeg or bmp for easy size), upload to imageshack.us (or any other image hosting site), post the "direct" link to the image here. 3. You can not print coupons in many target stores anymore. The 3 local targets by me no longer have coupon printers at customer service. 4. Everyone should look at the target coupons link:

Let's keep this thread alive guys! Let's all do our part and keep it updated with fresh coupons as they become available.
Happy New Year!
I suppose that will work...although sorting "alphabetically" worked better when you're uploading 5 or 10 files at a time, along with adding those to the list
I can pretty much get all the current coupons that are up, but it seems like a waste of time if people aren't going to use them. PLEASE POST if you do need some that are not uploaded yet.

You did not see a room full of shiny weapons, you did not see four alien night crawlers. You will love and cherish each other for the rest of your life.
