Check Offers with Target Cartwheel’s Barcode Scanner
Chrissy let me know about a cool feature available on the latest version of Target’s Cartwheel App. Now you can check whether a Cartwheel offer matches an item before you get up to the checkout lane using the app’s barcode scanner. Cartwheel has made this available on both iPhone and Android smartphones too.
You will need to have the latest update to Cartwheel to use this feature, Version 1.4.1. To find this feature on Cartwheel, just sign in and the main menu will come up. At the top of the screen, you’ll see the search box with a barcode icon to the right. When you’re ready to scan an item, just tap on this icon and then line the camera up with the barcode of the item. If there is a match, Cartwheel will bring up the offer for you to add. 🙂 That’s it! Your smartphone or device must have a camera to use this feature.
You can use this feature to scan items as you shop using Target’s FREE WiFi connection. Although my shopping trips are usually very-well planned- I think this is great for last-minute finds at the store and a big help and a time saver in my book! It’s also a way to check for cartwheels on spur of the moment clearance finds. Many cartwheels do exclude clearance- but quite a few do not- so this is an easy way to check!
If you do not yet have the Cartwheel App, you can go HERE to download for Android devices and go HERE for the iPhone, iPad and other Apple devices.
NOT FAMILIAR WITH TARGET CARTWHEEL? This savings program introduced by Target allows you to save even more when shopping in-store. Even better- these offers can be used with Target Coupons AND Manufacturer coupons for up to a triple stack! You can see my post HERE to help get you started.
–Thank you Chrissy for the heads up on this nifty little time saver!
Target Cartwheel: A New Way to Save Even More!
Target has an awesome savings program called Cartwheel by Target which offers additional opportunities to save even more! You can get as much as an additional 50% off, occasionally even higher, on items at Target including grocery, health & beauty, baby, clothing and much more. The best part is that you can combine Cartwheel offers with your coupons! You are allowed one Cartwheel offer with one manufacturer’s coupon and one Target coupon, triple the savings!
Cartwheel can be accessed 2 ways. You can access Cartwheel from a computer, browse and add offers and then print out your barcode to use in store. Or… Cartwheel can be accessed in the Target App on mobile Devices. This will allow many other features of the App to be utilized like scanning barcodes on items to see if there are any cartwheel offers and more.
To get started from your desktop, just go HERE, or just download the Target app from Google Play or iTunes and create an account. Then, log in to your account and you’re ready to start saving!
Now simply browse thru the offers on the desktop or your phone and hit the plus sign to add anything that interests you. When you’re ready to purchase your items and your offers are in your cartwheel, you can either print your Cartwheel barcode from your desktop at home and bring it with you to the store, or you can pull up your Cartwheel your mobile device.
To print your barcode, just go to www.cartwheel.target.com and login, then click on “Checkout” on the left, and then select ‘Print my Barcode’ at the top of the screen. This barcode is always the same, no matter what you add or remove from your list. So you could always laminate your barcode to be able to use it again and again at checkout.
To check out with Cartwheel with your mobile device, just open up the Target app and tap on the wallet icon to bring up the barcode for your cashier to scan.
Here are a few more points to keep in mind when using Cartwheel offers…
- The Cartwheel discount is taken AFTER Target Coupons and BEFORE manufacturer coupons.
- An IDENTICAL Offer can be applied a maximum of FOUR times in a single Transaction.
- You can save on your entire Cartwheel list up to 6 times per day.
- If you would like to make sure an item qualifies for a cartwheel offer before you buy it, you can use the barcode feature in the app. Just tap on the barcode icon at the top of the main menu and scan your item. If there is a matching offer, it will come up and automatically be added to your list.
