There’s a fantastic deal at Target on Olay products through tomorrow (November 6) that can make this a moneymaker. This week, Target is running a promotion where you will get a $5 Target Gift Card when you buy 2 Procter & Gamble products, including several Olay facial items. Here’s a possible deal scenario that can make this up to a $17.28 moneymaker after coupons, gift cards and rebate. Even if without using any coupons, this deal will still be a $9.28 moneymaker.
The Olay coupons state only 4 like coupons are allowed per transaction, so you would have to do two separate transactions to use all coupons depending on how many inserts you have. You can minimize your out-of-pocket expenses by using the Target Gift Cards generated with the first transaction to help pay for the second transaction.
***Deal Scenario #1 (requires multiple inserts)***
Transaction #1
Buy 4 Olay Refreshing Toners for $2.84 each
Plus, buy 4 Olay Foaming Facial Cleansers or Gentle Foaming Facial Cleansers with Aloe for $3.50 each
Use four $1/1 Olay Facial Cleansers or Moisturizers from the 10/10 or 10/31 Procter & Gamble inserts
Spend $21.36, get four $5 Target Gift Cards back
Final price: $1.36 for everything after coupons and gift cards
Transaction #2
Buy 4 more Olay Refreshing Toners for $2.84 each
Plus, buy 4 Olay Foaming Facial Cleansers or Gentle Foaming Facial Cleansers with Aloe for $3.50 each
Use four $1/1 Olay Facial Cleansers or Moisturizers from the 10/10 or 10/31 Procter & Gamble inserts
Spend $21.36, get four $5 Target Gift Cards back
Final price: $1.36 for everything after coupons and gift cards
Then, submit for the $20 Olay mail-in rebate for buying $50 worth of Olay facial moisturizers, facial cleansers or facial treatments.
Final price: $17.28 moneymaker for 16 products after coupons, Target Gift Cards and mail-in rebate

Thanks Totally Target!
Your turn: Did you make a special trip to Target to take advantage of this deal?


Carrie – Are you sure the toners are included in the rebate offer? It says “facial moisturizers, facial treatments and/or facial cleansers.” I’m just worried about getting rejected after buying several toners. Thanks!
I understand that a toner is a facial treatment… so you should be good!
I did this rebate and deal last May and got my full rebate even with the toners. They are facial treatments! :-)
Did you have more than 8 items? I have 16 and I’m wondering what to do with this rebate form in the spaces for the UPCs.
How are you dealing with the computer glitch? I made a purchased 4 products today and it would not go through with coupons. The manager finally put them through, but had no idea what the $10.00 glitch was!
Jennifer, I had that same problem when i did this deal on Thursday. After 25 minutes of looking at the computer and coupons with the manager and cashier, they had to manually enter them in as store coupons. :-( Frustrating but at least they pushed them through!
Yep….just ran into the glitch. There were no toners, so I purchased 8 facial cleansers @ $3.50 and tried to use 8 $1/1 coupons. It wouldn’t work. HOWEVER, the manager and cashier were super nice and we laughed the whole way through it….BUT eventually when they couldn’t get my coupons to go through….I paid the money then one by one they scanned my coupons, opened the register (after scanning my receipt) then handed me $1. They did this 7 times! (one of my coupons did go through on the original transaction) So I spent $25 then got $7 cash back and $20 worth of gift cards. (I had a catalina that was a target coupon for $2 off a $10 skin care purchase). So, all in all, after 10 minutes at the register I made two bucks! =) Just wish they had the toners since I used all my olay coupons and I would like to have gotten the rebate. They said *maybe* they’ll have more tomorrow before the $5 gift card promo is over, but I HATE target on Saturdays so I may just say thank you for my 8 free face washes and be done!! =)
Can we buy products from costco or samsclub and apply for a mail in rebate.
Shirin, I would think so because all it says is get a $20 rebate when you buy $50 worth. It doesn’t specify or exclude any stores.
Are the $5 gift cards back deals not always in the ads? My Target ad online (zip code 56001) says buy any two of the following items, get $5 gift card. Eg. 1.7-oz. Olay Total Effects moisturizer with SPF 15 for $18. All the items are high priced. :(
Gloria, no the gift card deals aren’t always in the ads :-( I think for better deals like this one, they don’t advertise them for the specific reason of avoiding a lot of people rushing in to get the deal since the items work out to be as low as $0.64 each after the gift card (not including any coupons).
What a night! I went to buy the Olay stuff, and say Curel was part of the buy 2 get $5 gift card. I happen to have a stack of Curel Target and Manufactor coupons. I bought 2 at a time, each time using my gift card, getting a gift card, making $2.38 on each transaction.
I got:
8 Curel Lotins. Sale Price 3.69
2 Olay Mositurizures Sale Price 4.78
3 Olay Refreshing Toners Sale Price 2.78
4 Olay Gentel Foaming Face Wash Sale Price $3.69
1 Toy Store Buckaroo Game Sale Price $17.79 <- Used $5 off coupon=$10.00
1 Brownie from Bakery $1 – After Coupon $0.00
Charmin Toilet Paper SP $12.49, $1 off manufactor
2 Simply Simple Lemonaide $1.27, 2 – $1 off coupons (thirsty from all that shopping!)
TOOK 8 TRANSACTIONS, one trip to Customer Service to get a gift card that did not work fixed. I used a $5 gift card to start/ended with a $5 gift card. Spent $17 on $97 worth of stuff. After rebate will have made $3.00. WOW!
The kids teachers are getting lotion for x-mas!
Can you help me find a $20 rebate that I could use on a purchase of $50 Olay Total Effects products purchased Oct 16, 2010. The recent rebate starts Nov 1 and won’t work for me. Thanks!
