ICYMI, here’s how it works: From now until April 23, you can take your old, used, crumbs filled car seat to a participating Target— no questions asked—and in return, they’ll give you a 20% off coupon that you can use in store or online towards the purchase of a new car seat, car seat base, travel system, stroller or “select baby home gear” like swings, high chairs, bouncers, playards, and more. Car seats that can be turned in include infant car seats, convertible car seats, car seat bases, harness or booster car seats, as well as car seats that are expired or damaged. Basically, it all goes and you get to feel good about recycling and save money on big-ticket baby gear you already needed. Each Target Circle app user is allowed to turn in one car seat for a coupon—which can be used twice—but if you have a partner or family member with their own app account, you could technically score several coupons and recycle more car seats in the process. The coupon must be used by May 13, 2023. As always, Target Red Card users will score an additional 5% off everything they purchase. And get this: if you have a Target Baby Registry, the coupon can be stacked on top of your registry completion discount! If you need some inspiration on what to buy with your 20% off coupon, here are our top picks on baby products to get with your coupon. Eligibility on what items you can purchase through your coupon may vary, so be sure to double-check before purchasing.
