ORLANDO, Fla. - Hey parents: if your baby's car seat is looking a bit rough, Target wants to swap with you.
Starting Sunday, Sept. 13 through Saturday, Sept. 26, Target is holding its eco-friendly car seat trade-in event.
Parents can bring in their outdated car seats to the designated drop-off boxes near the Guest Services area of participating Target stores.
You'll then be given a coupon for 20% a brand new car seat, stroller or select baby gear item.
