Could someone please tell where the "Buy a holder, get the refills" free blinkies are? TIA!

Anonymous said...

Wouldn't it be easier to do only 3 tins and 3 refills per transaction?

3 tins @ $2.50 = $7.50
3 refills @ $2.50 = $7.50

then the cashier would be prompted to issue the gift card for buying 5 Glade items at this point.

Then use 3 $1.50 tin coupons and 3 free refills wyb tin coupons.

Total OOP: $3.00, but you get a $5 gift card, making this a $2 MM. Then each transaction like this can be submitted for the rebate as well!

I found a blinkie coupon dispenser at the air freshener aisle in Fred Meyer the other day. It was giving out thoese coupons. HTH!

Anonymous said...

I found my blinkies at Kroger and Kmart!

where do we find the coupons inside tins the new one?

Kristin said...

has anyone gotten the giftcard yet? My target didn't advertise it in the weekly and there's no sign. Just need a confirmation please!

Were any of you successful at stacking the free refill coupon? It says "limit one coupon per purchase. COUPONS CANNOT BE COMBINED" Does that mean we can't stack it?

The 3 tins & 3 refills at a time is a great idea. I was thinking of doing it that way as well.

Let me know if any of you have had success getting the gift card. My local target can be anal with coupons depending on the cashier =/

I found the blinkie at Albertsons. About the 5$ gift card. If you scan the candle on the price checker it will tell you if it is a $5 gift card promotion on the display screen.

tanks for the great deal info. Free refill pack coupons says EXCLUDES TRIO PACK. can i still get a $5.00 gift card when i buy 4 pack?

Anonymous said...

I've found the blinkies in Food Lion and Kroger

I found the blinkies at Jewel about a week ago. On Sunday I used one at Walgreens stacked with a printable coupon. It beeped, but they pushed it through. When I tried it at another Walgreens, it beeped and they wouldn't take it because it didn't say "manufactorer coupon" on it. Anyone else have this problem?

Mom of Many Talents said...

My Target wouldn't let me do this....I had coupon nazi lady after me!!! EWEEE
If she not there I might try it!!!

Anonymous said...

It is rare that i can find a tin with the coupon still in it...they are useally 1/2 opened with the coupon missing...sigh

Anonymous said...

Maybe they quit putting coupons in the holders.

The team said...

It just failed for me. They would not let me use both coupons at once and I had 10 items and the register only issued 1 $5.00 gift card. I walked from the order. Stupid Target!

Baker Tribe said...

Anon, I agree! I never find coupons in the tins anymore! They've all been removed!
I found the blinkies at Publix...tons of them actually the other day...I've been grabbing some each visit.
I have been waiting for a deal like this b/c I LOVE the cinnamon ones! Hard to find (I was going to do the deal at Wags, but there weren't any holiday scents!)
I hope the coupon nazi's won't take this away from me! lol...I'll go tomorrow with the kids...the distraction helps sometimes!

What a great deal! Thanks for sharing!!

The regular tins pictured in the post aren't included in the deal, just the holiday ones. HTH

Sarah said...

Can you "roll" this deal and keep using the gift cards to buy more?

Anonymous said...

I am sure you could if you have that many coupons

Anonymous said...

When does this promotion start & end? I didn't see it in my ad... Thanks!

Treasure Coupons said...

I did this deal today and it worked just fine. You can stack as many "5" deals as you want. Meaning, you can buy the items in multiples of 5 and after each 5 items are rung up, the register prompts the cashier to issue the gift card. Today, in one transaction, I purchased 15 Glade Scented Oil tins, 15 refills, and 5 glass candle jars. I used (20) 2.00 off any glade scented oil candle holder q's, (10) Buy holder get refill free q's, (5) buy 2 refills get 1 free q's.
Total OOP was 10.00 and I got back (5), $5.00 Target gift cards.

Anonymous said...

I can confirm that at our Target there were signs up about this deal. No tins left but I did grab the Air wick imotions for free! I have been buying the tins at Walgreens and they did have coupons inside of them.

Anonymous said...

I did this deal tonight....only the holiday merchandise is on this promotion *not* the regular tins...they are really pretty tho for the holidays...my target is coupon friendly so even tho the free refill coupons beeped they pushed them through...wish i had known you can do this as many as you want tho

Kristin said...

To all of you having troubles with the free refill Q's beeping, what order are you giving your coupons in? I noticed that if you give the $1.50 Q first it attaches to the refills so when they scan the refill Q it beeps since it has nothing to attach to. If you give the refill Q first the $1.50 Q will have no choice but to attach to the candle holder. HTH someone!

Anonymous said...

Wow, Treasure Coupons...I can't believe your target let you use so many of the same coupons!

Brenda said...

This free Glade refill offer also has free music downloads - one with each holiday scent. :) glade dot com

Anonymous said...

There were no holiday tins at my Target. Are they with the regular ones - or a special location?

Kate said...

Can you take the coupon out of the tin and use it right away? Or do you have to buy some to get the coupons, and then do this for more?

Cydne said...

If you are buying the tin, take them out & use them then!

Leslie said...

I will freely admit that I am WAY to excited about this deal....I already have like 20 refills under my counter but I LOVE these! Throw in a gift card promotion and I am SOLD!

Anonymous said...

To Treasure Coupons, I hope you don't live where I live, I'd like to be able to get a few too!

Anonymous said...

I have never found any coupons in the tins, someone took all of them!

I just returned from Target and returned empty handed. SO SAD . . . 1) there was no sign anywhere re Target Gift Card promo, and 2) both the Tin and Refill scanned at $2.99. Has anyone try this in the State of CA? Maybe it's not offered in CA?

Kim said...

Anon 10:10pm... make sure it's the christmas ones. The regular ones ring up 2.99. I was only able to find the christmas scents on the end cap.

Also, regarding the buy scented oil candle, get refill free coupon--it's available on their website at http://www.glade.com/offers.aspx?offerId=108 if you're unable to find the blinkie in the stores.

Anonymous said...

Make sure it's the holiday tins you pick up. The regular ones are 2.99 and not included in the promotion. I found them at the endcap, not with the regular ones. I bought the holiday glass candle holders which is much nicer than the tins.

Anonymous said...

We were going to do the Glade deal at Walgreens but when we checked the tins the candles were GONE! I really dislike those who steal merchandise. Obviously we were unable to do the deal but looks like it was a good thing because I can go to Target instead. I received a Target Q in the mail for $1 off Glade air care product and it pictures the holiday tin. Just a little sweetner for the deal :)

Amy said...

I did this today:

http://amyinorlando.blogspot.com/2009/10/got-my-free-glade-oil-candles-from.html

Tracy Kosofsky said...

This worked for me (5 of each) but the cashier had to push the free refill coupons through (and the manager even told her it was ok!).

All the holiday promotional items were on an endcap - none were mixed in with the non-holiday Glade stuff.

Now if the nice Target manager could talk to the not-so-smart Walgreens manager who wouldn't let me use the $4 off the on sale for$3.99 Airwick iMotion coupon....then I'd be happy!

Amy in AZ said...

I could not find any holiday tins, ect. Maybe later this week they will have them.

I did find AirWick I motions on sale or rollback for $5.99 for the big ones and $4.99 for the smaller ones. i was able to use all my $4.00 coupons to get these cheap!

mom2taytay said...

I was able to stack the coupons but the tins are NOT included in the gift card deal. The tins are 2.99 what is included is the Glade 2in1 holiday candles on sale or 2.50 don't know about coupons for those yet, I have not looked. The tins are still a great deal though, for 7.50 I got 5 tins, 5 refill and will submit the rebate which will make each item .25.

Denise said...

my target in PA did not have any holiday tins yet - am hoping they come in soon. anyone know how long this promotion will last?

Anonymous said...

Just got back from Target, they the Apple Cinnamon Holiday tins and they were part of the promo @ $2.50 each.

Lynne said...

The gift card candles were on an endcap separate from the other Glad candle products at the two Targets in my area. The deal is for Christmas design and scents only: Apple Cinnamon, Bayberry, Gingerbread and some yummy custard creme mixed one. (2.50 each)

Anonymous said...

Went to two Targets today one didn't have any of the Holiday candles yet. The first one I went to was cleaned out all holiday refills were gone and most of the holidy tin type candle holders were gone. I asked an employee if they had anymore and was told they didn't and that the entire endcap was full yesterday. Luckily the deal will be going on for awhile.

Mrs.Litz said...

What a fabulous deal! Thank you!!!

We went tonight and got 5 holders and 5 refills total OOP $4.78 with tax then got two $5 gift cards!

I had some $2/holder coupons from previous boxes (check your boxes if you've gotten any before!!!) and got the buy a holder get a refill coupons from our Kmart. Kmart had TWO blinkies in the aisle for the coupons, so I didn't feel bad taking so many. :)

ThriftyisNifty said...

I went to Target but they had no knowledge of the gift card promo! I'll check back next week maybe my area is just behind.

Lynn said...

I have seen the blinkies at Kroger, Randalls and Walgreens. Only the holiday scent candles are part of this deal and they did have the $1.50 coupon inside. Plus to sweeten this deal the tins are $1.50, so you pay nothing out of pocket!! Also make sure you give the BOGO Q last. I did this deal today and had no problems. HTH

Jannel said...

I did this deal today, but boy the manager was NOT happy!! She said I was committing coupon fraud! She said she reads all the coupon sites because she coupons as well, but does not do these type of deals because it is fraud! She said someone needs to write that these deals are not right on these websites. Why doesn't she then??? She also said they have the right at Target to limit the # of coupons used. I don't get what the deal is if they manufacturer is reimbursing the store the money for the coupons? I am glad I got the deal though!

Meredith said...

I did the deal today-Bought 5 holders and 5 refills. I gave the cashier my BOGO first and had no problems.

Leah said...

Must be a regional deal. Bummer! No Glade gift card deals for San Antonio.

Anonymous said...

I'm in Sacramento. Went to 2 Targets and one had the candles on an endcap and the other one was just putting the end cap together. I got 5 tins and 5 refills and paid $5.77 and go 2 $5 gift cards. Good Luck!!

Megan said...

Is this deal in the ad? I can't find it in my weekly Target ad. Want to go and give this deal a try along with the Degree deodorant and body mist:)

Heather said...

I tried to purchase 5 tins and 5 refills. they took the 1.50 q's but they told me they are only taking 2 of the free refill ones per trans. (they said they have the right to limit the amount). I was so mad. so I only got the tins because I'm going to try my other target to get 5 more tins and use my free refill q's. wish me luck.

Michelle M said...

Does anyone know how long this promotion lasts?

Evan and Amber said...

I went today got 5 tins and 5 refills. Almost all the Holiday refills were gone so i scanned some of the regular refills and the Cin. Apple ones went towards the promotion. They are not in a holiday package, but worked for the deal however the clean linen, ect. didn't work.

Also I saw on a different blog it lasts until December 24! don't know how true it is and don't remember the site...i don't stray to often from this site;)

Good luck! hand over the bogos first

Jane said...

Speaking about gift baskets, does anyone know where to buy cheap baskets?

Heather said...

my target had a sign that said it runs thru the 26th of dec.

Anonymous said...

Went to Target this am and they said I could not use the $1.50q on the tin and also use the B1G1 as I was using to many coupons on the deal..so I called corp and they said the same thing that I could only use one set of coupons but I already did the deal once...

Anonymous said...

My Target does not have this deal. They have the tins but there is no deal on them. They are 2.99.

Anonymous said...

This was easy. No peeps. A five dollar money maker is always nice, plus it smells great in my card - they were in there all day.

Evan and Amber said...

I went to Target today ALL the tins and refills were gone and the sign about the promotion was taken down (i was there two days ago and it was up) When i asked the clerk she didn't really know, but she said sometimes they take down the signs if they are out of products, so pp won't ask about it! Even though all the febreeze were still there...whatever I'll try again next week

Anonymous said...

I found a bunch of the blinkies at my Publix. Also, there were a few of the $1.50 coupons in a few of the tins, not all, I think some people are just taking them out to have extra. My Target had the tins and refills for $2.99 but they were only advertising the regular holiday candles not the tins and refills for the $5 gift card. I was able to stack the coupons wiht no problem but I think it depends on the cashier you get.

Cindy G said...

I ran into my first problem at Target today on this deal. I had 6 of the glass holiday candles and 4 of the refills. I had 6 $1.50 coupons and 4 buy tin get refills free. I was told by the cashier and "manager" that I couldn't expect to use a FREE item coupon and also get a $5 gift card. I was told it was Target's "policy" not to allow free coupons on items for gift card promos. I told her I would like to see a copy of this policy and was told they did not have one. Things that make you go hmmmmm!!! I left with just my soda.

Brenda said...

I did scenerio #2:
I purchased 5 of the glass candle holder and 5 of the candle refills. used all of the q's and paid 4.95 but only got a $5 gift card back...not the $10 gift card.

Since i purchased 10 items does this mean I can do the SC Johnson deal 3 times and get $15 back?

Kate said...

I'm pretty sure you have to mail the three rebates separately. So since they were all in one transaction, it wouldn't work. =\

superpaige said...

I think it's quite rude when someone goes through all the tins and TAKES out all the coupons for the candles. I mean, I understand using the coupons for the ones you actually buy, but if you take all the coupons, then there are NONE left for the rest of us. That just ticks me off. I mean, there's thrifty, and then there's greedy.

Anonymous said...

The Target I went to ALL the coupons were removed from the tins as well. But there was a sign on the shelf that did say that you get the $5 gift card for buying 5!

Just got back from doing this deal as well!! They have plenty of the candle christmas holders but no christmas like refills for this deal.. so i bought 5 regular refills for 2.89 and 5 glass holders at $2.50. used 5 b1g1 free but no gc.. and used 5,$2.00 off 2 glade products! Worked like a charm and got a $5.00 gc.. so over all paid $2.50 oop and got a $5.00 not but considering I got different kinds of candle refills. I'm getting tired of the apple/cinimmon ones LOL

Anonymous said...

Did this deal at Target last night: Bought 3 Christmas tins, 2 refills for $12.50. Used 2 Buy tins get refill free coupons, Used 3 $1.50 off coupons, and 1 $2.00 of 2 Glade products. Final Cost $1!! Got a $5 GC and will send in for the $5 Glade Rebate, so: final cost $9 Money Maker! Yahoo!

Anonymous said...

My target would not accept the "free refill when you buy a holder" - they said it was from a blinky machine, and they do not have those, so they cannot be accepted.....anyone else?

Kate said...

Nope, I used the blinkie coupons with no problem. It's a manufacturer's coupon, so they should be taking it. (Ask them why they take newspaper coupons if they don't sell newspapers! lol)

Has anyone else seen that there are $2/2 coupons inside the glass candles? I bought 15 of them and 5 of them had them. I only found 6 of the $1.50/1 candles in the tins, so I could have used these, I think, on my other 2 transactions.

Wouldn't this work?
Buy 5 candles
Buy 5 refills
Use 5 BOGO blinkie coupons
Use 2 $2/2 coupons for 4 of the 5 candles.

Anonymous said...

Kate you can actually do this

buy 5 refills $12.50
buy 5 glass holders 12.50
use 5 b1g1 blinkies
use 5 $2/2

Pay $2.50 for all and get $10.00 back

Works everythime with of course the right cashier!

Kate said...

It may go through because the BOGO coupons weren't attaching at all to the candles, but it would be using two coupons on the same item, which is coupon fraud. =)

Megan said...

My Target would not take my blinkie coupons today. I plan on heading up this evening to try again:)
