Discount on Car Seats: How To Get One At Target

Target is bringing back their car seat recycling program. For the last three years, the retailer has celebrated Earth Day by letting us bring our outgrown or expired car seats in to Target stores to be recycled. And they offer a sweet 20% discount on a new car seat, booster seat, or travel system for your trouble.

Target’s car seat trade in offer runs from April 22nd to May 4th. And we’ll take any excuse to make a Target run.
