Back in December, I wrote an article about knowing your store's price policies in order to get the best deal. At the time, Target did not price match, but as of 7/12, they have a new Low Price Promise.
Target will match advertised prices from competitors on identical items in local markets. If you find a lower price on an identical single item (the same brand and model number) that is listed on a local competitor’s printed advertisement, during the effective date of the ad, Target will match that price. All price matches will be done at Guest Services, so you'll pay the Target price and bring your receipt and the ad to Guest Services for the adjustment.
Also, if you find a lower price within seven days of purchase, you can bring the actual printed competitor ad and a Target receipt of purchase of the same item to Guest Service to receive a price adjustment. You must have the original advertisement and receipt for the price match.
Do you price match? Walmart already has this policy in place. Do you find it's worth the effort? Plus, neither Target nor Walmart double coupons, so it may be better to go to the original store (like Meijer or Kroger) that do double coupons. What do you think?
