Here’s Target’s Coupon Policy if you haven’t had a look at it before.

Upromise March eCoupons are now up! There are over $36 dollars in coupon savings this month. Load your coupons and have them saved for any purchases during the month!

How these are different from other ecoupons:

1. You can use them at almost any store!
2. The money does not come off at the register but is put in your Upromise account.

Can I use a coupon too?
Most certainly, yes! These are not tied to coupons or discounts in the store. Potentially you could still use a manufacturer coupon, a store coupon and get the item for free PLUS the extra savings you’re banking in Upromise!

Don’t have a child…
No problem! If you’re planning to have a child in the future you can open the account in your name and once your child is born you can change it to your child’s name. Grandparents can also sign up and have it go to their grandchildren! We have 2 sets of grandparents all saving a little bit for our account. You can change the beneficiary at any time. If you don’t plan on having kids or your kids are all grown and through college, ask friends or family if they would like you to save for them.
