Several people have asked about the coupon on Target's Facebook page. Target responded by saying, "This seems to good to be true...because it is. Thanks for asking!"

A Target manager told the ABC affiliate in Denver that the coupon is a fake and will not be honored.

The coupon is being posted from several websites like grab-coupons.com, HolidayChristmas.com and Target.com-Christmas.xyz. It doesn't matter which website it comes from, the coupon is a fake.

There are some great deals from Target this weekend that are real, including buy one toy and get one for 50% off on several brand name toys, 40% off all apparel and accessories and spend $75 or more at Target on Friday and get a coupon for 20% off one shopping trip between Dec. 4-13. These deals are all listed in Target's Black Friday ad. See it here. See more Black Friday ads here.
