Target’s nationwide car‑seat trade‑in event, running through October 3, gives families a rare chance to upgrade to a premium convertible seat while keeping more money in the household budget. Shoppers who bring an eligible used car seat to a participating store receive a 20% Target Circle Bonus that can be applied toward qualifying baby‑gear purchases.
How the savings stack up
The Evenflo Revolve360 Slim 2‑in‑1 Rotational Convertible Car Seat is already discounted by $73 at Target. When the 20% trade‑in bonus is applied, the total discount exceeds $130 for most shoppers. The promotion applies to any eligible car seat – including expired or damaged models – that is dropped off in a designated collection box and scanned with the Target app.
Features that matter to families
The Revolve360 Slim’s one‑hand, 360‑degree rotation lets parents swivel the seat toward the vehicle door, making loading and unloading easier in tight parking spaces. Its 16.7‑inch footprint frees up back‑seat room, a benefit for families with multiple children, carpools, or smaller vehicles. The seat supports rear‑facing use for children weighing 4‑50 lb and forward‑facing use from 30‑65 lb, allowing children to stay rear‑facing up to 50 lb – a recommendation echoed by child‑passenger safety experts.
Why the trade‑in program helps families
Car seats are a significant expense, and replacing an expired model can strain a household budget. Target’s program not only reduces the cost of a new seat but also gives old seats a second life. Since the initiative began in 2016, Target reports recycling more than 3.5 million car seats and over 1.2 million lb of material.
How to participate
Visit any participating Target store, place the old seat in the collection box, and scan the barcode with the Target app. The 20% Circle Bonus is credited to the shopper’s account and can be used on eligible baby‑gear items, including car seats, booster seats, strollers, travel systems, and more. The bonus may be redeemed twice and can be combined with other offers.
Local impact
For parents in our community, the combined discount makes a high‑quality, safety‑focused seat more affordable, supporting the family’s mission to protect children while managing household finances responsibly. The savings align with the values of traditional families who prioritize safety, stewardship, and prudent budgeting.
Don’t miss the deadline – the trade‑in event ends on Oct. 3. Check Target’s website or app for participating store locations and start the upgrade today.
