    LOL i am thinking the same thing. The Target i went to yesterday had maybe 12 of them? if that many........

     

    how is the rest of that store? you must find lots of bargains Ü

    that was my first time there, actually....i haven't been living here long, back home there was a super target 5 minutes from my house! two, actually...i loved it!

    i think i'll start going to the super target every once in awhile, even though its farther away.

    I know that around here the wall borders and decals went 75% off. If anyone sees the sports decals and wall growth chart at 75% off please PM me if you would be willing to purchase and ship. We are doing my son's room in the sports theme and I wasn't even able to find any at 50%, I was lucky enough to get the dollar spot sports stuff to decorate his room, but that was it. TIA

    didn't see this til after i went to target today -- they were 75% off at the store near me, but i think it was mostly the animal prints

    You can't buy Red Sox tickets unless you own the team or are sleeping with one of the players!

    They have been "sold out" for years...same as the patriots:yup:

     

    Although parking near Fenway for a game is about $75...a little too rich for my wallet

    besides you can see them better on tv:yup:

    haha :D:tongue1:

    Got a question for everyone to verify what a Target associate told me...

     

    I was returning some items and when the person scanned it, she had to put a green sticker on each of the items. When I asked her what the sticker was for, she said that means Target won't allow it to be resold anymore and basically it is thrown out. She also pointed out a bunch of other stuff on a big flatbed cart that also would be thrown out. I asked if Target will allow its employees to take them or will Target donate them? She replied that Target will not give it to anyone for fear of being sued if someone got hurt from the item. All the stuff will get squashed with a compactor before going to the sanitation, so people cannot even scope out the trash area for goodies. I was astounded and she said that usually Target employees don't tell customers unless they ask. She even concurred how upsetting it is since there are tons of ppl that would be grateful for anything. She said it's even more upsetting when they do that with food!

     

    IS THIS REALLY TRUE??? If so, it makes me think twice about buying or returning anything in the future. I'm so upset by it now. Please tell me she was either mis-informed or she was just pulling my chain since today is April Fool's Day!

    Btw, I was at Westbury, NY Target today and Easter was totally gone. Even the Dollar spot was pretty wiped clean. And no good clearance deals at all. One of the worst deals stores I've been to in a while. I walked out without buying a SINGLE thing! And that's rare!!!

    Unfortunately, that's todays world. Target can't do the nice thing and donate items, because someone will take advantage of the opportunity to turn around and sue them due to injury (whether they did get hurt or they faked it). From a business standpoint, Target has made the right decision.

    Same reason restaurants can't donate leftover foods at the end of the day -- if someone who eats it gets sick, they can sue the restaurant. It's a risk businesses can't take.
