Target’s Car Seat Trade-In Returns With 20% Off Baby Gear Through Oct. 4

Recycle an old seat in-store to unlock a Target app code for savings.

Overview

  • Shoppers who trade in any-condition car seat now through Oct. 4 receive a 20% Target Circle discount on most new car seats plus eligible strollers and other baby items, with some exclusions.
  • To redeem, drop the seat in a designated in-store box and scan the box code in the Target app, which adds a Wallet offer usable online or in stores.
  • Each trade-in generates a discount code that can be used twice and it expires on Oct. 18.
  • Target accepts expired or damaged seats for recycling, and the 20% offer can stack with other qualifying coupons and promos.
  • Coverage notes rising baby-gear costs—car seats often run $50 to $800—so a $300 seat could see roughly $60 in savings, with safety research from IIHS highlighting 2025 Top Safety Pick vehicles.
