Perimeter Perusing at Target (Target Clearance Deals) - 2008
katiesmommy01 replied to Gator Pam's topic in Offline Hot Deals
I saw one of the remote starters at mine...just one there...but it's only at 30% off...and that makes it over $50! Still...i'm tempted, it's so darn cold here! FYI DE people, I just returned a V-Flash system from the Toy sale ($22xx), should be out on the shelf soon! Bought nothing today But saw bras for 75% off (just none my size!)...the party stuff was not even on sale at all Ran into the associate that bought the other Disney puzzle yesterday...he was so thankful and told me if i need help with anything to find him :) It's funny that they are starting to recognize me in the store...i told them this was my "hobby" lol -
I know, sounds crazy right? My daughter and I went over there just now to pick up some pizza (they are the ONLY ones in the entire area who carry Totinos), and checked out the toy clearance (still way too high!), found this one toy her friend has that she just HAD to have:rolleyes: (it was $9 so i said ok). Then we checked the wagons...they had a sign on the Radio Flyer floor model saying that the floor model was $30! ($69.xx normally)...they had ONE left in a box...so I figured it was just for the display model one, but we tracked down an associate (no easy task at Walmart, but we were determined), he tracked down another, a price gun was located...a supervisor was tracked down on her way out of the store...and she said we could have the one in the box for $30 since it was technically the same "model" as the floor model w/the sign! They carried it over to sporting goods to check us out...but 20min and 4 people later we couldn't track down a supervisor to override the $69.xx price!!! Finally one showed up to the 200 pages sent out...and it didn't look good that she was going to agree to the price (she kept pointing to the display model and stating that it was just for that one...but to the first associates credit he asserted that the TOY manager had approved it before she left). In the end they gave it to us (in the box) for $30 stating that Walmart could handle losing $40 to keep a customer happy Awesome.

lol, i didn't know what it was! I had to have someone explain it to me...but it looks like something my BIL would like, so i figured i'd get it and could always return it later (the cashier was jealous too!). I'll tell you what though...if he doesn't want it i'll PM you if you want and we can work something out to ship it to you! (i'd give you the price i paid of course). -

Alright, are you guys ready for some emoticons? Fantastic day at Target...best EVER. I love you guys by the way...GROUP HUG!!! I found a Cone vaccuum with the curves on an endcap (no clearance tags or signs) was sad thinking they must not have been clearanced at my store...decided to scan anyways...scanned 2 of the curves (one came up $49.99, the other $34.98...SAME model/color)...the Cone scanned $19.98!!! It was the only one and a color i really liked, so in the cart it went!! YAY!!! I never would've looked twice at them without people on here mentioning that they got them on sale :) THANKS!!! Also, went in search of the disney puzzle in toys...found 3, no clearance stickers/signs...tagged $32.98 on the shelf...scanned one "item not found" asked a worker, he said it would be the tag on the shelf (so $32.98)...but decided to double check the numbers on the tag (they were TINY), and different than the puzzle! Then he tracked down one of the scanner boxes they have, still not found...before this was over i had 4 people working on this...one manager said they had gone on clearance and to give it to me for $7.48! I was super excited, BUT then another manager went and got the HEAD person w/printer function...and that person actually gave it to me for $3.74!!! and tagged it so it would scan that at the register :) I decided to take all 3...but the guy who had been helping me originally was trying to find another one to buy for his pastors daughter's birthday, so I gave him one (he was so excited he RAN up front to buy it immediately, lol)...I thanked them all profusely and went on my way:2wiggle: Did not find any birthday supplies, but did also pick up the Nintendo Wii game w/nickolodeon folks (50% off) for $24.99, the Pirates of the Carribean CD chest player for $8.74, some pooh stickers for .74, mittens for .74 and some mandatory 90% off V-day stuff (found the carebear for .49!!!!). *sigh* I was shaking i was so psyched...I even finally got a red-card...so that was another $9xx back....good times! ps- almost forgot...finally picked up the my little pony pc games set for $4.98! I've been watching it on clearance for months! yay! -

Value city closing down stores. Big discounts on items
katiesmommy01 replied to mistral's topic in Offline Hot Deals
Our are closing too (DE AND PA ones), the DE one is becoming a Burlington. Even towards the end (the DE closed beginning of FEB) the deals weren't so great at all...eh, i wont miss the place. -
wow, my mouth dropped when I read your OP and I want you to know you have my complete support!!! I had a Target manager speak to me in a similar fashion in front of my DD6 as well, and was just as upset...spoke to the store manager about the situation while I was there and the Store manager gave me the questioned item (which yes, was mismarked in a similar fashion) for even less than the questioned value along with a huge apology and promise to repremand the supervisor This was exactly what should have happened in your situation!!! They made the mistake, you called them on it (I think a million of us Target Perusers have done this and gotten the deal that way), they give it to you for the price and then change the sign immediatly afterwards! There is no reason (in retail or otherwise) to speak to anyone the way this woman spoke to you! It totally devalues you as a person, and YES it can make you want to never revisit a store you may have had a great time at previously...not because of a missed toilet seat deal (or a blow up sleeping bed as was my case) but because of not wanting to come to a place where someone attacked you like happened to the OP. Please keep us posted if you persue the issue further, but otherwise know you have our support in general (even if some are being not so nice on here...) PS-I read someone above mention Disney...I worked there for a few years, wasn't allowed to wear ANY make-up, nailpolish, jewelry, only allowed stud earrings (one set), no visible tattoos, only an engagement/wedding ring if applicable, no crazy hair (color or style). You know what? I was fine with that and feel more companies should enforce dress codes, it just makes a nicer environment if you look professional while working (JMO).

katiesmommy01 replied to Gator Pam's topic in Offline Hot Deals
I was so annoyed today...hit a different target than usual (south philly), found one of the Christmas tubes of MLP, came up not found...got excited...went to customer service to ask and told them it was Christmas so it should be 90% off...she got all mad at me and said "i shouldn't even sell it to you!" Said i should be happy that she was "letting" me buy it! I was really annoyed with this girls attitude to say the least My friend was like "well, it was worth a try" and I was like "i'm not done yet" so when we hit the registers I told the cashier that it was christmas and should be 90% off the ticketed price...she looked at me, and it rang up item not found and asked her how much...but instead of the usual "how's .50?" I got...i can only give it to you for the ticketed price!!! AGHHHHH!!!!!!!!! The store was picked clean of clearance in general, so i won't go there again anytime soon. (yes, i bought the MLP anyways...it was $1.74, it was just the principal of the thing!) -

went today and picked up some v-day stuff, mlp for $3, cupcake holders for .99, shirt for $2...our big find was the my little pony backpack which has sat on clearance for 30% forever...and i just kept telling my DD to wait it out (she wasn't as calm as i was)...it was marked $11.98 (had been $8 at another store)...scanned it and it came up $3.98! She looked at me hopefully and i was like *nodd* 75% off...it's a go! she was so Also found a great hello kitty sleepover bag that came up "item not found" but the cashier refused to give it to us for anything less than the stupid ticket price!!! Needless to say we did not get it. -
Hey, i've checked IKEA, Amazon, stores...cannot find a nice one in a good color (neutral) for a good price...was hoping maybe someone knew about a great furniture sale tomorrow or monday?
-
We hit it up yesterday (didn't think to bring my 15% off coupon!!! NOOOOO)...got a princess skirt and sweater for $8 each, the stuffed Aurora pillow for $3.19, stuffed Aurora and the 3 stuffed faries (fairies were about $1.19 each, princess was about $3.19), stuffed dopey (for me), Alice in Wonderland mug (again for me, about $1.19), t-shirt for $2...i wanted to grab one of the $30 snowglobes but my DD said i didn't need one sniffle! So question...can i return everything, then rebuy it with my coupon? or just cut my losses...the whole thing was only about $30...so that's only like $4.50 missed....and i can always hit another disney store and get the snowglobe when my dd is at her playdate tomorrow!

Ok trip today...our dollar spot went 75% off this morning, tons of stuff there...so I bought a bunch! Nothing else in the store worthwhile (I was hoping the valentines would be clearanced already like someone earlier said theirs was...but no dice). Checked out with all the dollar spot stuff and one blue dot hello kitty socks...they wouldn't ring up, she asked me 3 times how much they were (50cents? dollar?) i honestly didn't know and thought she'd call over someone to ask, but instead she gave them to me for 25 cents :) yay! My DD is going to love those...spent $5 total...that's gotta be a first! GB still 30% in DE. -
So i've realized that, no, I will not crack open my old textbooks again, no matter how many good intentions I have...so i'm ready to sell them and hopefully make some $$$ only thing is I have no idea where to do or what to do help?

I dunno if this is the right place to put this, so please move me if neccessary thanks! I just finished a photo book for my daughter and paid $17.57 in the end w/shipping! It is usually $29.99 + shipping I wanted to do it as cheaply as possible...so i'm passing along the codes I found that worked to bring down the price...also, keep in mind that they are having % off sales on the website itself until TOMORROW...and yes, the codes stack!!! YAY!!! HTH 15% off $25=> AF40-1908 15% off w/Visa=>VS09-VISA 20% 5x7 photobooks=>DR26-SFLY -
wow...i just spent like 15min trying to track down company information! I even checked the BBB site...this is going to bug me...
-
hey, thanks...i usually avoid petsmart because they are typically so expensive, but I checked it out, only 1 review, but it was positive...and the price was about $100 less than others i've been looking at, so it's worth a try! I ordered one (found a 15% off code online), so got it for $144.15 in the end...not toooooo bad, hopefully it works! Otherwise i'm pretty sure I can return it to a Petsmart store right?

Back! Success!!! Returned the shutterfly with no questions or problems AT ALL! Amazing the difference between 2 Targets. Also returned the toy organizer...she even held it for us to see if we could find another one. They were only 30% off at this store, and only still had 2 left, both with damaged boxes...one was open and the wood was also broken, we took the other up to customer service and they opened the box for us to check out all the pieces...it was ok!!! DD was soooo happy :) Plus they refunded our tax for us even (2nd Target was in DE, first was in PA)...*sigh* happiness... -

I thought about asking her about it, but at that point the issue was the other employee and the dora bed and I didn't want to complicate things anymore. I'm going to try to return it to another store today (when we return the toy organizer)...i'll let you guys know how it goes.
