Target - Cheap Juice and Tarts

Today I stopped in at Target to do some cherry picking.

Juicy Juice 6.75 oz 8 packs on sale for 2/$5
Juicy Juice 4.23 oz fun size 8 packs on sale $1.75 ea.
Kellogg's Pop Tarts 12 ct. on sale 4/$9 get a $5 Target gift card.

Today's Deal:
4 boxes of Pop Tarts = $9.00
6 Lg. packs of Juicy Juice = $15.00
4 sm. fun pack size of Juicy Juice = $7.00
Subtotal = $31.00

Coupons Used:
(2) $1/2 Kellogg's Pop Tarts, recent insert
(4) $.50/1 Pop Tarts, Target printable
(= Free Pop Tarts after gift card)
(10) $1/1 Any Juicy Juice product, recent insert
(5) $1/2 Any Juicy Juice product, Target coupon, recent insert
Subtotal = $19 off

$31.00 - $19.00 = $12.00
Used $5.00 gift card from last weeks soda deal = $7.00 OOP
Earned another $5.00 gift card for buying Pop Tarts!

I like to look at it this way, I bought 80 boxes of juice and 4 boxes of Pop Tarts.
That's 84 items for $7.00 or about $.08 cents and item!

Loved all the savings from Target.
It appears that you were able to use double coupons on the juicy juice. Does Target accept double coupons, or did I miss understand.

At Target, you can use a Target coupon and a manufacturer's coupon on the same item. I had $1 off two Juicy Juice Target coupons and I combined that with $1/1 MF coupon. Target coupons are basically just a store discount. That's why you can use two coupons on the same item because the Target coupon really isn't a coupon. I think it's just a marketing ploy to make you use the coupon to get the discount. This goes for all the stores in my area, Kroger, Albertson's, CVS, Walgreens, etc. HTH
