Did you find a better price for an item you just purchased at Target? No worries—the store’s “Price Match Guarantee” might have you covered. We’ll go over exactly how you can price match your items at the store or online, as well as the policy’s guidelines, limitations, and exclusions. In a matter of minutes, you’ll be an expert on this handy, money-saving hack.
[Edit]Things You Should Know
- Price match at Target in person by visiting a physical store and speaking with a Target team member.
- Price match online by either calling guest services at 1-800-591-3869 or by chatting online with customer service.
- Target price matches with many major retailers like Amazon, Costco, Sam’s Club, and Walmart, but huge competitor sales and bundles aren’t eligible.
[Edit]Steps
[Edit]How to Price Match (In-Store)
- Search for a cheaper listing on Target’s website or an eligible competitor site. Hop on target.com while you’re in the store and see if you can find a cheaper listing for the physical item you’re about to buy. You can also check other retail sites like Amazon, Best Buy, Costco, CVS, Home Depot, Petsmart, Sam’s Club, Staples, Walgreens, and Walmart.
- Click here for an official list of retail sites that Target price matches with.
- You can also check local competitor print ads for a cheaper price listing.
- You can even price-match groceries at Target. Just make sure that the listing includes the exact same brand, size, and weight as the item that you purchased. The items also need to be the same quantity—for instance, you can’t price-match a single bottle of Gatorade with a multi-pack.
- Show the lower price to the cashier when you check out. Pull up your phone and let the cashier confirm that the listing meets Target’s price match policy. If everything looks good, the cashier will refund you the difference right there.[1]
- Unfortunately, you can’t do a price match by yourself in self-checkout. Target’s policy requires a team member to check and confirm the price match.
[Edit]How to Price Match (Online)
- Dial 1-800-591-3869 or open up Target’s customer service chat box. Did you just find a better deal on a competitor’s site while doing some online Target shopping? Call up Target’s guest services number or start an online chat with a Target customer service agent. Send them a link to the listing you’d like to price match—once you place the order, they’ll refund you the difference between the 2 listings.[2]
[Edit]Can I still price match after making a purchase?
- Yes, you can get a price match refund up to 2 weeks after your purchase. Bring both your receipt and the lower price listing with you to the store’s customer service department so a team member can confirm the price match.[3]
[Edit]Guidelines and Limitations
- The lower price needs to be active when you’re requesting a price match. Let’s say you’re trying to price match a shirt—you bought it at Target for $22, but you saw it sold on Amazon for $15. That $15 price tag needs to be live and active on Amazon’s site when you request the price match, or else it won’t be eligible.
- A screenshot of the lower price won’t cut it—the discounted listing needs to be accessible on the website in order for the price match to go through.
- The item listing needs to be completely identical to the item you bought before. Double-check that the brand, size, color, model number, and any other relevant product info on the listing is exactly the same as the product you bought. Even the slightest difference can invalidate your price match request.
- For instance, you can’t price match a 60-inch Samsung TV with a 60-inch LG TV.
- Target may limit the number of items you can buy with a price match. At the end of the day, Target has the final say in what your price match can be used for. Depending on the item, Target team members might limit the quantity of your price-matched purchases at their discretion.[4]
- Let’s say you price match a laptop at Target with the exact same model at Best Buy. Target might limit you to buying one laptop rather than buying 2 or 3 at once.
- If you live in Hawaii or Alaska, you can’t price match with other online stores. You can still use the price match policy with lower prices you find on Target’s website, though.
[Edit]Exclusions
- Clearance, used, pre-owned, refurbished, or opened items don’t qualify for price matching. Target’s price match policy only extends to brand-new items that are placed on sale or marked down at a lower price. Drastic clearance and liquidation sales won’t be price-matched, nor will used, refurbished, damaged, or pre-opened items. Other exclusions include:
- Items sold online by third-party sellers
- Major sales or offers from competitor sites
- Specialty purchases like alcohol, cell phone plans, warranties, and pharmacy prescriptions
- Typo-related price changes[5]
[Edit]Can you price match items that are out of stock?
- Yes, but only if the items are out of stock on Target’s website. Online competitor sites need to have the item in stock when you go to price-match or else you won’t get a refund.[6]
- Target has a rain check system for sale items that are out of stock in your physical store. Target will let you use the same sale price for the next 30-45 days at all Target stores.
[Edit]What discounts can you apply to a price match purchase?
- Target RedCard and employee discounts can be applied to a price match purchase. Using your Target RedCard always saves you 5% on your purchases, even if you’re buying price-matched items. If you’re a Target employee, your discount also gets applied to your final purchase.[7]
- Manufacturer coupons can be used with a price-matched item, but Target and Target Circle coupons aren’t eligible.
[Edit]Warnings
- Target’s price match policy doesn’t extend to listings found on comparison-shopping sites. Make sure that your online listing comes directly from an approved competitor website.[8]
- Only SuperTargets can price-match grocery items that are measured by the pound.[9]
