A friend's trip to Target

Yesterday I met one of my friends at Target to try to help her find some good deals. She has used coupons in the past, but is just now getting back into the habit of shopping with them. We found some great deals. She bought everything pictured below, and spent...


$25...AND she received a $5 gift card that she can use on her next trip to Target. She saved over $128.00 by combining coupons with in store sales and promotions!!
