I just HAVE to share my awesome Starbucks coffee buy story with you so you can hopefully save money too! Do you shop at Target? There isn’t a Target store all that close to me but I think it just might be worth the drive to shop there! I was in the area on Monday (1-6-20) and went into the Target store to look for a certain brand of dog food. I discovered the Target app for smartphones and if you haven’t used it, you really need to check it out! This week they have Starbucks Bagged Coffee & K-Cups for 25% off in the Target app, so I went to see how much I could save if I bought some coffee. Target ALSO has the Starbucks coffee on SALE this week in the store – BINGO!! (Kroger sells a 12 oz bag of Starbucks coffee for $8.99.) Target’s regular price for a 12 oz. bag of Starbucks coffee is $7.99. (So already cheaper than Kroger.) Right now it’s on sale and if you buy 3 bags, you pay only $5.99 a piece! Add on the 25% off coupon in the Target app on your phone, have the cashier scan your phone and you get an additional $1.50 off each bag! Which brings your grand total to $4.49 for a 12 oz bag of Starbucks coffee! WOW! So guess who is the proud owner of 3 more bags of Starbucks coffee?! Haha!
The Target app says only 3 more days, so if you are a Starbucks fan, RUN to Target and save yourself some money! 🙂 I hope this price is available in a Target store near you!

Hi Anita, it is good to find bargains like this! It feels good 🙂
To find out if it is worth driving to Target you could check how much the whole trip costs compared to a normal grocery trip. How much additional do you spend in gas and do you buy anything additional you wouldn’t normally buy in a shopping journey, like a snack, or lunch.
When I consider travelling further from home to shop I try to think about how much the trip is going to cost me all together, and if the discount is then still worth it. If I have to pay $5 more to get there, and I am not getting over $5 in savings then it’s not worth it.
Good luck in these troubling times! All the best to you!

Exactly! A bargain isn’t a bargain if you end up spending more on gas getting to the store. 😉
