  1. Great trip at Target today...Found a portable DVD player for $64.xx Was marked at 50% off...I wanted to wait until 75% off...But the SA told me they were no longer marking electronics to 75%....

     

    Also found a portable digital photo album...It was marked $14.98 but rang up for $4.98....

     

    All the V Day stuff was pretty much cleared out...and all the Jolly Rancher lollipops were gone...That is what I am on the hunt for tomorrow...My 2 girls love those...

  2. So.. regarding expired coupons, can some of you experts here chime in.. I tried to use an expired coupon today, first attempt, and I got shot down by the checker. I thought I read here on the posts, that Target takes expired coupons... was i dreaming?

    Dont know where you are in Southern Cali but Targets here generally will catch it and not take them...You might want to try a different store..Also try and look for a younger cashier..Like a teenager?? They are usually the ones that past them through...

     

    Also make sure the coupons you are using are the expired Target Store coupons and not manufactured coupons...They dont get paid for expired manf coupons and they screen those heavily...Personally I dont use any expired coupons but I hope this helped...

  3. went to 2 Targets today looking for the 75% off jewelry armoires. The first Target had them at only 30% off. The second store only had the display models. I wanted the 129.99 now 32.98 but they wouldn't let me have the display model even though the first sales associates said I could have it, he called some woman over there and she said no. I told her that he said I could have it but she said no that it might fall apart on me. I was SO mad I wantedit to store my makeup in. I have ALOT of makeup and it would have been perfect

    I saw about 50 of those at my store today...All marked at $12.48. I wanted to get one but figured I didnt have enough jewlry to fill it up...It did look nice though.

  4. Something tells me I will NEVER find these at my Target. There is this nice man who works at the cafe like ALL the time and can be seen at almost any time of day bringing a cart up to the cafe full of packaged drinks to restock "his" shelf. He is very jolly about all of it and very protective and proud of his setup. I think that running this cafe is his life's mission. I am sure that any 10 packs that enter that store go straight to his cafe shelf, lol!

    It took me a whole year before I found any lol...I had just about given up when a couple of weeks ago I found 3 packs..After looking for months and months....

     

    Dont give up...You might just get lucky!!

  5. I spoke to one of my workers and she said they were putting the sale (bulk stuff) back in the areas they belong. Ex. diapers went back to the baby section, paper towels on the shelf with the other paper towels, etc... They are still marked with the red sticker but you might have to search the whole store to find everything

    Yep..They are all in the individual depts...They replaced the bulk stuff with Valentines...and it took nearly 2 hours for me to find all the bulk stuff that I wanted to pick up before it sold out...

  6. My Target just put out about 30 tubes of the Christmas My Little Ponies. They are on clearance for 30% off. I know alot of you got them for 90% after Christmas. I don't know what they are thinking. They must of found a box of them, but they have Santa hats and they are $4.98!

    I dont know what the deal is with those My Little Ponies...My Targets never did mark them down when everything went 50% & 75% off....They scanned at $6.98 I think..and are just now being marked down....

  7. The bulk items were marked 15% to 30% off for me today...They had honey bunches of oats for $2.96. I printed 2 coupons from the link below and got each box for .96!

     

    It will only let you print 2 coupons...After you print the first hit the back space and click on print again....Also it says $2 on chocolate clusters..But it works for all honey bunches of oats and scanned today for me with no problems..

  8. they only had a few for Christmas. they were a "special purchase." big lawsuit by a bunch of independent retailers over this as Ganz, the manufacturer, had agreements not to sell through mass retailers. so, the ones they have now are probably all they'll get for a while. Stupidly, the came so late in the season that they didn't even get to sell most at full price!

    Wow thats interesting...Costco has a whole endcap of webkinz....I was surprised to see that as I previously only seen them at hallmark and other small gift shop stores...

     

    Does anyone know how much that pressure washer that was on clearance was??

  9. Sporting Goods doesn't get marked till Thursday or Friday.

    I am going to check both days..and will let everyone know..At least for Southern Cali...Both stores that I frequent have tons of sporting goods clearance...

     

    Do you think they will take it to 50% or straight to 75%?? Both of my stores are still at 30%.

     

    I just checked online and the policy says a receipt is required for ALL returns. Maybe some stores are just more lenient than others?

    All of the stores I frequent will give NOT refund unless you have a receipt..Doesnt matter what the purchase amount is...

     

    Now if you dont have your receipt and paid with a credit card they can do that reverse receipt look up for you and give you a refund that way...If you paid with cash you are outta luck...

     

    I find the best thing to do with receipts is to keep a large shoe box at home..Each time I return home from a shopping trip I drop the receipt in that box...I have 2 boxes..One for Target and another for all my other shopping stores....Target gets its own box...lol..I shop way to much there.

  10. Savvybuys, what model did you get, if I can ask? I really like the idea of a quiet washer

    We purchased the Kenmore Elite HE5t King Size Capacity Plus Front-Load Washer & Gas Dryer...Looks like they are still selling the same model But have updated to include a new steam feature...They didnt have that feature when I purchased last April....Our set is blue as they have several colors to choose from...

     

    One of the things I found funny about this set is the Washer has a Hand Wash Feature..Doesnt say gentle wash like most washers..It says Hand Wash...lol....

     

    I hope you find the right set for you...Laundry is something some of us do everyday of our lives..lol..So I was very picky when I purchased...Make sure to ask lots of questions and visit several stores before you make your purchase....

  11. I would steer clear of Maytag front loaders

    This is so true...Before we purchased our washer/dryer I did lots of research..I wasnt really focused on the price but the quality...I found hundreds of stories on the internet about Maytag appliances...

     

    Sometimes when buying large expensive appliances its really better to pay a little more for quality...I researched for almost 6 weeks before we made our purchase...When you buy the right product it should last for years...My mother just got rid of a washer that was 19 years old...Ok that is a bit to old for my taste..lol...But it served its purpose...

     

    Whichever model you decide to buy make sure you google the name and complaints together to get a feel of others issues...Consumers today are very good at hitting the internet when they have a problem with a purchase...

  12. We purchased a Front Loader washer & dryer at Sears last April...They are Kenmore made by Whirlpool...Not all Kenmore models are made by Whirlpool...So you will have to ask the salesman what the manu is...They were pretty expensive...But its not like you buy this type of appliance everyday..So I didnt mind..The Sears guy told us the motors in our washer/dryer were made by BMW....They are extremely quiet..You dont even know there on...My laundry room is upstairs right next do DD room who is 3..So I needed a very quiet model.

     

    We did not buy the the stands for them..My husband built 2 very nice stands..and we painted them the same color as my laundry room...They came out beautifully and it took him just 3 hours and $25 worth of supplies from Home Depot...

     

    Like Azzycat we also got rebates..one from the water company another from the gas...Most utility companies do this as long as they are Energy efficient...

  13. Hmmmm.... My husband does buy a lot of his own clothes, and if it's something that I don't like, well.... it somehow gets lost , or shrunk... or a spot of bleach... well, you get the idea.

    Luckily for me, that doesn't happen too often, he's pretty good about picking out clothes.

    Lucky You!! My husband doesnt even know his size! He will always ask me what his inseam is..as he usually forgets..lol..

     

    I didnt even know Target carried leather jackets...Will have to check that out today.
