I’m hoping to find time today or tomorrow to write a post comparing school supply prices, but for now I wanted to leave you with this great deal from my favorite app, the Target Cartwheel. If you’re not using the Cartwheel app, you’re truly missing out. Check it out today! This weekend they’re offering the coupons posted below.
This is a great deal if you’re already planning to buy your kids school clothes at Target, and seriously, how adorable is their Cat and Jack line for both girls and boys? Here’s some more great deals for back to school.
We’ve all been to Target intending to buy some paper towels and baby wipes and come out with fox-shaped salt and pepper shakers (They were on clearance!), a t-shirt covered in pineapples, three cases of La Croix and a box of wine. Why not maximize your savings on those impulse buys with a Target debit card? I refused the pleas of the cashiers for years before I finally got mine last October. I just didn’t want another card in my wallet. However, with this debit card, purchases just come right out of your bank account and you save 5% every time. It’s kind of a no-brainer, and I love seeing the total on the register change after I insert my card. Damn, I love saving money!!
Here’s another link the all of Target’s current promotions. My favorite is a BOGO deal on kids’ shoes.
Happy Saving!

PS-I am not affiliated with Target in any way and get nothing for promoting their stuff. I just really love saving and want to share the love with you.
