Head to your nearest Target to pick up your free baby gift at Guest Services!

If you start a Target baby registry , you’ll get a free welcome gift with coupons and samples worth $50! The gift bag can vary but right now it includes a free MAM pacifier and AVENT bottle.

You should also get some great baby coupons in the mail.

2. Target Cartwheel

Target Cartwheel has a section just for baby offers that you will want to check out at about once a week. There will be discounts on baby clothes, diapers, wipes, toys, nursery items and pretty much everything in the baby section.

Just add the offer to your Cartwheel and print your barcode or show it using the app on your phone. Easy peasy!

3. Target Printable Coupons

Target.com also has a page of printable baby coupons that change a couple times a month. You can see them all here. Coupons will vary but I’ve seen some for Carter’s clothing, diapers, wipes, $20 off $100, and more.

4. Target Mobile Coupons

: Target has phased out baby mobile coupons but will sometimes send special baby coupons via text so keep an eye on the weekly flyer.

Target will also send baby mobile coupons to your phone! You have to sign up by texting the word “BABY” to 827438. They will be sent out every 6 weeks or so.

5. Manufacturer Coupons

6. Stacking Coupons

You can also use manufacturer coupons to save on baby items at Target – especially diapers, wipes, baby food, and formula. Here are some websites where you can find baby coupons to print before you shop.

You can combine coupons to maximize your savings! Target’s coupon policy states that you can use one Cartwheel offer, one manufacturer coupon, and one Target coupon per item! There will be times that you can use 3 coupons on one item, such as diapers or wipes, which is always a good deal.

Make sure you check all possible coupon sources before heading to the store and keep your paper coupons organized in a little folder.

7. Weekly Ad

You can often get a great deal without any coupons at all! Target publishes their Weekly Ad online every Sunday.

Just head to Target.com (or the store if you prefer the paper version) and find the baby section. You will find items on sale for the week as well as free gift card offers. If you can pair a sale with a coupon or two, even better!

8. Target Red Card

I am still kicking myself for taking so long to get a Target Red Card . You can apply to get either a debit card (linked to your bank account) or a credit card and both will get you an additional 5% off your total purchase including baby items! It really adds up over the year!

You will also get free shipping at Target.com with no minimum purchase requirement which is great when there is a hot deal. You can apply right here.

9. Target Baby Mailer

Target also mails out baby coupon booklets but there is no official way to sign up for one. Increase your chances by doing the following:

Create a Target Baby Registry

Sign up for a Target.com account and check the “offers and promotions” box

Sign up for a Red Card

There are always great coupons inside the booklets.

10. Price-Matching (Including Amazon!)

How would you like to shop at Target and pay Amazon prices? Target has a great price matching policy! They will match competitor’s printed ads or online prices at websites like Amazon.com, Walmart.com, BabiesRUs.com and lots more.

They will also match Target.com if you find the price lower on their own website, up to 14 days after you purchase an item!

Just show proof of the lower price at the customer service desk to get the price match deal.
