Just a reminder that this thread is for CLEARANCE discussion only. If you want to discuss coupons and/or store policy, create a new thread in Deal Discussion and go nuts. Thanks.

NOTE: Starting with next month's thread (August), I'm going to start asking that when you post about your clearance finds that you use the format posted in last month's thread. This will allow for the top post summary, as well as the future cell phone features. Therefore I strongly suggest that you get ready for the changes this month by starting to follow the format. Again, when you want to report an item, do it like this: ### Item Title/Description, Price/Discount, DCPI/ASIN Info, etc... Do one line for each item. The DCPI info is not mandatory, but if you have it, it would help others. So for example: ### 072-08-0663 - KitchenAid Coffeemaker Model KCM5111 - $49.98 ### GPX AM/FM CD alarm clock radio - $9.98 ### Assorted Pet Accessories 90% off You can add other comments to your post (such as what store, comments about the items) but for the actual list, just use the ### at the beginning of each line, and that will tell the soon-to-be-implemented script that you are entering an actual clearance item find, and those lines will be combined into one master list at the top of the thread organized by date, and will also be used for any eventual cell phone service. Also, next month's thread will likely have the new, updated OP, so if there is any info that you think would be useful to include every month, please PM it to me. Thanks.

Why would you bump an old thread? Looking at your info: IP address: 153.2.246.32 Reverse DNS: mirage3.ups.com E-mail address: [email protected] I can see why....

The thread's title must include the name of the retailer the deal is for. 2. The post must contain a link, even if it's just a link to the retailer's home page. 3. The deal must be from one of our partner retailers (see list below). 4. The deal must must be unique and not be a repost of a recently posted deal. We reserve the right to disqualify any deal thread for any reason. Besides these mandatory criteria, we also ask that you be as descriptive as possible in your thread title. Where possible, include an image in your post. If there is a specific method to get the deal, provide step-by-step instructions. If a coupon code is needed, be sure to include the code in your post. Please do not directly copy and paste deals from other sites forums - you may "borrow" the deal, but type the title and post in your own words. Directly copied posts may be disqualified from counting for the promotion. http://www.gottadeal.com/images/partners.gif CONTEST UPDATES AND HELPFUL HINTS: PLEASE SEARCH BEFORE POSTING DEALS! RE-POSTS WILL BE DELETED! MAKE SURE YOUR DEAL IS A LEGIT DEAL AND NOT JUST "FILLER" TO EARN AN ENTRY! THESE "FILLER" DEAL THREADS MAY NOT COUNT TOWARDS THE CONTEST! PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THE ENTIRE CONTEST DESCRIPTION BELOW YES, IT'S LONG, BUT IT WILL SAVE YOU TIME TO DO THINGS RIGHT THE FIRST TIME SIMILAR DEALS POSTED FROM THE SAME RETAILER ON THE SAME DAY MAY BE MERGED INTO ONE MASTER THREAD - COMBINE DEALS WHERE POSSIBLE! PLEASE REMEMBER TO USE DOLLAR SIGNS $$$ IN YOUR SUBJECTS AND AVOID ALL CAPS! DO NOT POST DEALS FOR ON-GOING SITE OFFERS THAT ARE NOT LIMITED TIME, SUCH AS A FREE SHIPPING OFFER THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOREVER, ETC... THESE DEALS MAY BE DELETED AND WON'T COUNT TOWARD GIVEAWAY! If you have any questions about the promotion, please reply to this thread or PM me. As always, this promotion is being overseen by the accounting firm of Banana, Apple, Orange and Pineapple.

Just be aware that these are not official DVD releases - they are basically bootlegs taken directly from TV (either via VHS or DVR likely) and then burned to DVD. So don't expect quality. You'd be better off waiting for the official release.

c'mon, you should be able to get one for about $32 with your coupon skills

that was fast - mine was delivered 2 hours ago

mine shipped too :) this deal is good through saturday for anyone still considering it.

Nice. I'll have to pick up a copy to add to the collection :)

I believe so, but you might be able to buy a regular WM gift card with it.

Just ordered one myself :)

When you post, you'll see a picture icon above the message area (looks like this: ) Click that and enter the URL of the image.

We've removed a lot of the "personal" home page links because they were being abused by spammers, so as of now we're not going to add anything like that.

If you all want to start getting ready for the changes, when you want to report an item, do it like this: ### Item Title/Description, Price/Discount, DCPI/ASIN Info, etc... Do one line for each item. The DCPI info is not mandatory, but if you have it, it would help So for example: ### 072-08-0663 - KitchenAid Coffeemaker Model KCM5111 - $49.98 ### Assorted Pet Accessories 90% off You can add other comments to your post (such as what store, comments about the items) but for the actual list, just use the ### at the beginning of each line, and that will tell the soon-to-be-implemented script that you are entering an actual clearance item find, and those lines will be combined into one master list at the top of the thread organized by date, and will also be used for any eventual cell phone service :) You don't have to do it this way now since the script isn't done yet, but if you want to get "in the habit", feel free

New thread for June. I'm starting it a little early so the weekend posts aren't split between 2 threads. Just some friendly reminders: * This thread is for Target CLEARANCE discussion only. * Discussion of Target's weekly ad items belongs in Offline Hot Deals. * Discussion of Target store policies not directly related to clearance items belongs in Deal Discussion. * Off-topic chat should be kept to a minimum or taken to PMs - these posts may be deleted without warning. * Please PM me with any links or other useful info you believe should be added to the OP. Also, with the busy BF season just around the corner and the increased traffic coming, I'm thinking about some changes to this thread including a newly written OP as well as a feature which will continuously update the OP (or maybe the 2nd post) with a list of everyone's finds in one big, easy to read list (with DCPI info). Other sites do this and if you all were willing to help by following a standard format for listing your items, it could also work here and make this thread even more useful. There is also the possibility of a service which could send you a text message or e-mail to your cell phone with the latest finds if you are at Target and are wondering what everyone else is finding that day. This won't happen for another month or two at the earliest, but if you have thoughts, let me know. All of these features rely on this thread staying on topic with actual clearance finds, so your cooperation with that will make the thread even better. Thanks.

OOS again. I'm just going to leave the thread in this forum for a little longer to see if it comes back in stock again rather than keep moving it back and forth to the Dead Deals board.

wow, that was fast

We just got word that the very popular DeepDiscount.com 20% off DVD sale/coupon will be back June 6 - June 22. Coupon code will be DDAF. Just wanted to let you all know in case you were planning to buy some DVDs :)

A reminder that this is the Target CLEARANCE thread - if you want to discuss weekly ad deals and how to make the most of them, feel free to post a new thread in the Offline Deals forum, but it's getting difficult to find the actual clearance deals in this thread with all the discussion about general weekly ad items. Thanks.

Use the contact form here: http://www.gottadeal.com/Contact and send me your name, order # and contact info and I'll forward it to our affiliate rep to see if there is anything they can do. No promises, but it's worth a shot. But in the future, with any kind of discount at any site, you shouldn't ever hit that final "confirm" button unless you see the discount show up first.

No clue. Has anyone gotten the 10% to show up with anything? If not I'll have to send an e-mail. They made such a big deal about this promotion and so far it's been disappointing to say the least...

should be working now - i e-mailed our rep and they were having a problem with it.

http://www.olsonnet.com/images/sears.gif Sears sent this offer to just a few sites to promote - you can't get it just by going to Sears.com. So if you were thinking of getting something from Sears, consider getting it now - the more success they have, the more likely they are to offer us more exclusive deals in the coming months... :)

If I get some time soon I'll try to get another search box up there, but the Search drop-down does the exact same thing.
