I noticed, as you mentioned, that some coupons that I print from Target.com state “manufactuer coupon” at the top. So my question is, are you allowed to stack one of these “manufacturer coupons” printed from Target.com with a manufacturer coupon found somewhere else? Or, are you only allowed to stack Target “Web coupons” with manufacturer coupons? Thanks!

They must say “Target Store Coupon” or “Target Web Coupon” on top in order to be stacked with a manu coupon. If it says manufacterer coupon on top, you can not stack that with another manufacterer coupon if they are for the same product.

I HAVE PRINTED OUT TARGET WEB COUPONS AND WHEN I TOOK THEM TO THE STORE TO USE THEY WOULDN’T TAKE THEM . THEY SAID CAUSE IT DOESNT HAVE A PRICE AND IT WONT SCAN THEY CANT TAKE IT. WHY DO THEY HAVE THEM TO PRINT OUT IF THEY WONT SCAN.I HAVE PRINTED OTHER COUPONS THEY PRINTED OUT JUST FINE SO IT CANT BE MY COMPUTER OR PRINTER.

I was wondering with Target is there any specific order to give the cashier the coupons. Does the order in what you handed them to them matter? First Target coupons and then Manufactures coupons? Ive saved shopping at target but i am curious about the order of handing the coupons.
