I'm a regular Target shopper, and buy 90% of our H&B products from there... But there's a 50/50 chance of me using cash, instead of my debit card. There's no way for them to track those purchases, and not all of my purchases with my debit card have had 100% of my H&B purchases on them. While I understand and know that freebies are simply a fun and awesome perk - it's kind of a downer knowing that my chances are slim because of the whole tracking thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-19966816685174297472012-03-05T15:23:21.967-08:002012-03-05T15:23:21.967-08:00Well, since the statement on Facebook said it was ...Well, since the statement on Facebook said it was based on "previous purchases" maybe some of those purchases will count when they roll out the rest of the rules!

I'm definitely starting to feel a little better today, but nowhere near 100%. :(<br /><br />I think it's important to remember that, as Phoebe sort of said below, freebies are not a right, they are a privilege. Target, or any other store, is not required to give away things for free, and if they choose to do it in a different way this time around, we can honor that and play along, or skip it altogether. I don't think this is a gimmick, but I can understand your frustration since the rules and guidelines are not yet clear. Like they said on their facebook page, there will be more ways than just the three qualifying purchases to get the code, so there might be a way that works better for you personally. But of course, if you're not happy with the way this is being executed, you've got every right to skip this promotion altogether! :)G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16658662222451658254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-88803598513054204572012-03-05T15:09:23.962-08:002012-03-05T15:09:23.962-08:00I needed a few beauty items from Target, so I went...I needed a few beauty items from Target, so I went today and bought five beauty items (most of which I needed, two of which I pretended I needed...oops?).

I, for one, am not about to buy three (no less!) beauty products at one time, unless it's an emergency, which I can't imagine running out of three products at once.
