target, cartwheel and win $1000!

This post sponsored by Target and Blogher.  

Well, I'm just a little excited about this particular Blogher partnership.  I fell in love with couponing a couple of years ago and it has truly made a HUGE difference in my finances.  I've learned that if I stock up on things (in a reasonable, normal person amount) that it is much more time and cost effective when I run out of something to simply walk to my stash cabinet and grab the one thing I need.  The other scenario is running to the store for "one thing" and coming home with a lot more than that!  That second way costs me a lot more time and money!

In the couple of years since I have started, I have learned a lot with what works and what does not.  Apps come and go, some seem great and then flop and others are just all around "meh".  I've been so happy to find a better app for one of my favorite places to shop.

The Target cartwheel app is by far one of my favorites to date!  This app makes couponing just that much more easy and who doesn't shop at Target anyway?  I love that you can add multiple offers (over 700 coupons/deals available!) and get them all scanned at once with ONE bar code (in the store only!)!  No need to clip and print these savings (saving even more money!!).  The search feature makes finding what you really need and all you have to do is save them to one of your offer spots (you start off with ten but can earn more as you save and share!).

So not only do you get the awesome "one barcode" feature of the Cartwheel app, but you can also stack these savings with other Target offers and coupons! What couponer doesn't love that?!  Just let the cashier scan your iphone (or Ipad or droid) and then hand them your stack of paper coupons! It's that easy!

You can find more info about the App here: http://cartwheel.target.com

And no, you don't have to be a couponer to love this app.  You can just be someone who wants more of their money to stay in their wallet!  You also don't have to be super phone saavy either, I am so not very on top of technology and have no problem using it!  It's even easy to use pushing two kids through a store who don't want to be there!  That kind of easy!

I can't do enough to encourage you to try it out!  Well maybe I can...leave me a comment telling me your favorite current Cartwheel offer and you will be entered to win $1000 Target giftcard!  ($1000 can go a loooooooong way using this app and stacking your coupons, just saying).

Ready?  Set? Go! :) Can't wait to hear your stories!
