These are stores that I have talked with customer relations and they will NOT be doing Earth Day promotions this year:

Target -In previous years on the Sunday before Earth Day, Target has given away reusable bags filled with coupon books and samples. However, this year that Sunday falls on Easter and all Target stores will be closed.  I received an email from Target customer relations that they will NOT be doing the tote giveaway this year.

Lowe’s Home Improvement Stores – Looks like there will be no promotions this year.  I called the 800 number as well as my local stores, they said no. Lowe’s Facebook page also confirmed no promotion. (Actually 800 number customer service rep said they gave away trees on April 9th.  But I can’t find details on that anywhere…sooo…) Chipotle – No national promotion, check local stores for their own offers (Sawmill Rd in Cbus not offering anything)
