Similarly, don’t they mark down regular merchandise after it’s been on the floor for a certain period of time? Can you find out the details of this process?

I guess my math is different: if they offer five cents back on every reusable bag, wouldn’t that constitute a savings of 25 cents?

Do they post “Target’s Daily Deals” online, in the stores, or in the flyers you find with the weekend newspaper?

On items that are refundable, most non-tech items have 90 day refund period. (tech might have shorter return period / re-stock fees)

Just return the old one using the old receipt and buy a new one. (known issue: is time/effort worth it?) If using debit/credit, just be sure and use a different form of payment, (eg: different card, cash) since a ‘return & re-buy’ can be considered as a price match. (where PM rules may apply)

> Price Match

For me, time/effort is not worth it for a low cost item. (PM can only be done at customer service counter)

> Bring Your Own Bags

Really sucks that refusing a bag is not the same as BYOB in many CSR’s eyes. I also make it a point to bring a different from the store brand bag to ensure that I won’t be recharged for a bag that I brought in.
