New Target App Gives Cartwheel-Worthy Deals: More Than Just Coupons for Processed Food

I’m really proud of myself that at the end of 2013, I had kept my New Year’s resolution. I think I had success because I didn’t give myself some long, unachievable list that only SUPER ME could do, as opposed to just old regular me. I gave up white sugar and most processed foods, and it was the best decision ever. And now that I’ve got my sugar compulsion under control, it’s time to get my spending in check. 2014 is all about reducing debt completely and shopping smart. That’s why I was jazzed when Target approached the Powers that Be at Blogher to promote Cartwheel, and yes; you’ll be doing a lot of them once you read what it’s all about.

What the Heck is Cartwheel? It’s an iPhone or smartphone app that allows you to tailor your savings based on your interests and location. Sign up for the service, select the items you want to save, and then the thrifty little Target elves will generate a customized code in which you scan at the cashier’s desk. The Deets… –At the time of this post, there are over 700 deals on Cartwheel · Cartwheel can be used on your desktop, tablet, mobile web or iPhone and Droid apps. · Guests are able to use their Facebook login to sign up with Cartwheel. You have the choice to share or keep it private, because everyone on your friend’s list doesn’t need to know you need tampons. · Coupon & discount stacking is allowed, so if you want to see if you can buy that box of Cheerios for .02, go for it. And you can do it again, and again, and again (with the following exceptions: limit of 4 items per offer, per transaction; limit of 6 Cartwheel scans per day. )

I really like the idea of targeted coupons, especially non-food items because most of those promotions are for processed foods with a shelf life of 300 years.
