“If you find something that’s cheaper in the app, online, or in select competitors, they will price match it for you right in the store,” the expert advised.

According to the Target website, the store will match the price if you find the identical item for less at Target.com or on their app.
This hack could save you hundreds as retailers like Walmart and Amazon have great deals going into the holidays.

Another TikToker named Lizzy shared instructions on how exactly to get the matched prices.
Lizzy explains that as soon as you walk in, head directly to guest services and show them the lower price from your phone or ad, and they will immediately change the price for you.
To save even more, she says that price matching is great when shoppers have Target coupons.
“When Target sells the Apple Watches or the iPhones and they have the extra $100 gift card or $50 gift card, you can get a better price and the gift card on top of that,” Lizzy explained.
Just note, the gift cards she is referring to are actually manufacturer coupons. Target gift cards are excluded from price matching.
Manufacturer coupons are issued by the manufacturer offering a free item or a specific amount off the purchase price of one or more of a manufacturer’s products.
