Have you heard the news? I had heard ramblings about it, but consider it *official* now that’s it is on the Target website.

From the Target Press Release ^[1]:

As of July 12, Target stores nationwide will match advertised prices from competitors on identical items in local markets, assuring guests that our products are priced right.

The Press Release goes on to say that if you “find a lower price on an identical single item ‚Äì defined as the same brand and model number that is listed on a local competitors printed advertisement, during the effective date of the ad ‚Äì we will match that price.”

Also, you can get a price adjustment if a competitor has an item on sale that you purchased at Target. The catch is you must have made the purchase within 7 days of the competitor’s sale/ad date. Just take a copy of the competitor’s ad and request your adjustment.

I suggest printing off a copy of this press release and keeping it in your binder. If you do want to price match at Target and they are unaware of the new policy, you can share the information with them.

Kudos, Target! We are definitely going to *Expect More* and pay even less!

Thanks to A Thrifty Mom ^[2] for sharing the link to the Press Release!

I would print off the official Target Coupon Policy ^[3] and keep it with you while shopping. There is also now a $.05 Reusable Bag Credit at Target ^[4]. So, don’t forget your shopping bags so you can get a discount!
