I love free stuff. No doubt about that. Even better than free stuff is free money to spend how you like. This is a growing trend in retail it seems which is great for the consumer and the retailers. The three biggest retailers doing this are Target, giving Target gift cards, CVS, giving ECB's, and Walgreens with their rewards points and register rewards. Here's a great example of this free money in this week's Target ad:
When you buy 1 23.3 oz Metamucil powder for $15.99 Target will give you a $5 Target gift card with your receipt so you can buy more for free! Plus, in the Proctor & Gamble insert in the Sunday paper on 8-30 you'll find a $1 off coupon.
Summary:
Buy 1 23.3 Metamucil powder for $15.99
- $1 off P&G coupon in Sunday paper
- $5 back on Target gift card = like paying $9.99 (savings of $6 or 37% savings)
