Swiffer Deal::
Buy two refill packs and get a $5 Target Gift Card
Buy six and be eligible for a $10 manufacturer rebate
I found Swiffer wet clothes on clearance for $3.81 each, the shelf tag read $4.04
I bought 6 pks in lots of 2 - in separate transactions - in order to get the $5 gift card on each set. I also used $.75 off Target Q's that I found hanging off bottles of Tide in the store on the first 2 transactions.

I worked it like this::
Transaction #1
2 Swiffer wet cloths @ $3.81 each = $7.62
Used (2) $.75 Target Q's
Paid $6.17 OOP, earned a $5. gc

Transaction #2
2 Swiffer wet cloths @ $3.81 each = $7.62
Used (2) $.75 Target Qs
Used $5. gc from previous transaction
Paid $1.17 OOP
earned $5. gc

Transaction #3
2 Swiffer wet clothes @ $3.81 each = $7.62
Used $5. gc from previous transaction
Paid $2.84 OOP
earned $5. gc

I've now purchased $22.86 worth of Swiffer Refills (at a cost of $10.18), am eligible for the $10 rebate and I have a $5 Target gc to use on my next transaction (which I did) ~Woot!

From the manufacturer: Buy $20 in Swiffer products and get a $10 Visa Card via mail
You can print the form here and submit for the mail in rebate (you'll need the UPCs from the boxes). I hear if you received the Homemade Simple Coupon Booklet from Procter & Gamble you will find some manufacturer coupons to use on this deal....scout the cleaning aisle like I did you might find a few attached to bottles of laundry detergent. Even without the extra coupons it's a Great Deal!
