Target cartwheel question

[speckledfrog]

I just signed up to use it today and notice in the terms and conditions sections it says

"Limit of 1 Cartwheel barcode per transaction and 6 Cartwheel barcode transactions per day." 

Does that mean I can only use one coupon at a time?  So, even though it lets you load 15 coupons you can only use 1 and then if you really wanted to you could use six but you'd have to separate them into 6 different orders?

No. I don't know what that means, but when they. Scan your barcode it take off all the applicable discounts that are loaded into your cartwheel.

[saraandmichael]

no. it will use all 15 codes at once. it means you can't use the 15, then delete them and put 15 different ones and use it on the same receipt.

[ohgillian]

Eta: probably it means that you can't use, say, both your and your DH's (different) barcodes within one transaction as a way of circumventing the limited number of slots.

[saraandmichael]

also, you can use the same stuff as many times as you want.

ex: there is a current 10% off a drink at the target cafe. i use it every time i go there and it expires in a couple weeks. i can use it up to six times a day, but only once at a time (so if i am buying six drinks at once i need to pay six different times) but i can do that every day until it expires if i want to.

and you also earn more spots the more you use the app. i think i have 19 now?

[demelza]

You can use all the coupons you have in your cartwheel profile. So you start with like 16 spots if you were buying all 16 you can do all those at the same time. 6 cartwheel barcode transactions sounds like 6 different accounts like using someone elses barcodes in addition to your own, at least that is what I think.

[speckledfrog]

Okay, good. Thanks for the clarification!

This part is not true. Each coupon will apply a max of 6 times per transaction. I've done it before.

If you have paper coupons, make sure to use those before cartwheel. You can use a manufacturer paper coupon + target paper coupon + Cartwheel coupon.

Their stupid app never works right for me. I always load the coupons and like half will work and then I have to stand there an extra ten minutes and point out all the missing savings.

You can also print your cartwheel barcode out. Once you have printed it out it links to your account. You can even make changes on your cartwheel coupons and that would apply, your barcode stays the same no matter what. That way you wouldn't have to fiddle around with the cartwheel app on your phone just give them the printed barcode and use your other phone apps as needed.

Is cartwheel an app? Some lady used this who was in line in front of me and saved $15 on not a lot if stuff. I made a mental note to ask ML about this, lol.

Yes.  You have to link to it through FB, which I hate, but it looks like you can put it on lockdown.  You have to go back in and make sure to delete the part where is says it can post on your behalf.

I used cartwheel and mobile coupons yesterday and saved like $20.

I think it's 4 times. That's what my coupons say in the details.

I had never heard of this until right now. Huh...

This app plus the red card and I save so much. Love! Publix needs an app like this. The whole mobile phone no coupons deal is dumb.
