Having fun with Cartwheel

We all LOVE Target.  Some of you may already know about this app from Target.  I discovered it a little while ago and have been having fun and saving money too.  This blog may highlight the fact my life is a little boring or how much I love to shop.  Even if it is for tissues, peanut butter and eggs.  But here goes!
 
 
I already made a weekly trip to Target before I got the app.  And I do cut coupons from the Sunday paper.  Actually, the coupons are the only reason I get the paper!  Sorry Buffalo Snooze.  But I was buying pretty much all my food from Wegmans and it can get pricey. I feel like I am constantly trying to buy and keep food in the house.  These boys can eat!! I try and keep it around $200 per week in groceries and household items but sometimes it isn't possible.  My kids can inhale a carton of strawberries 4 minutes after I come home from the store.  So the great thing about this app is it can be combined with coupons and store coupons.  Which equals more savings! 
 
So first you make your list for Target and then go through the app and see what products have cartwheels on them.
 

Then I usually browse the trending offers and see what is a good deal. The app creates a barcode that the cashier then scans.
BAM!  Money off.  It is fun and then you earn badges. I am a little jealous of my friend's $100 badge.  The great thing is it tracks what you save, not what you spend.  So just show your husband all the savings and he will think you are wonderful.
I will confess using cartwheel and coupons makes me feel like a rockstar.  Happy Shopping!
