  1. Well, 3 targets, lots of whining (3 kids!) and $120 later I didn't find any of the things I went for. LOL

     

    I found Target brand diapers marked 15% off, but scanning 30% so I bought 5 boxes! Also, got some Huggies wipes that were 15% off.

     

    The rest was just crap I didn't really need but bought anyway....a dress for my daughter, some baby food, groceries, towels (50%).

     

    I don't have the stuff or the receipt right now, but I will get on later and add numbers.

     

    I was really hoping to find the car mats to help keep my new car clean and the cool car coolers! GRRR. The second Target I went to had higher prices on everything. They are only about 10 minutes apart and batteries I bought at the first for .88 were $1.78 and the second. The dress was only 30% off there and I had bought it for 50% off.

     

    Anyone else in Utah see the car coolers or floor mats? If so let me know which store and I will head there.

  2. dang, I havent made it to the Easter clearance yet, and now we are supposed to get 1-2 feet of snow =(

    I am in Utah and we got hammered with that storm yesterday and this morning! Lots of rain and then about 6 inches on my lawn this morning! Grr.....I want spring.

     

    I also haven't been to the Easter clearance, I did go last week (right before Easter) and I was really, really disappointed with the whole store. I used to go while ds was at preschool once or twice a week, but now it just doesn't even seem worth the stop lately. :(

  3. I am looking for a cheap place to buy faceplates and other accesories. Or maybe even FS codes for some sites that do this.

     

    My phone broke and my nephew gave me his old one. It was WELL used and I would love to cover some of the scratches, but I don't want to sink in a ton of money because hopefully I will be changing carriers soon and get a new phone anyway.

  4. I went to 8 Targets today, and Im exhauseted. I found 2 plasma cars at the first one, and keeping my eye on dvd player that is 50% off. Other than that, I found nothing that interested me. Bummer...........I was really hoping to find spike.

     

    Oh.........anybody in the KC area looking for the Step 2 puppet theatre........they have 2 of them at Oak Park........for 17.xx

     

    You are insane! :) I have been stalking two Targets for a few weeks now all for Spike! One of the stores is out and the other has a few left, but they are still $65. GRRRR!

     

    Trying to decide if I should get out early and drag the kids to try and get him tomorrow or if it just isn't meant to be. My 3 1/2 year old would LOVE him, but I just can't justify $65.

  5. I got one of them for 75% off on wed. 14th of jan. first day of sale @ 8am as soon as the store opened 2 people offer me an extra $10 to let them get it NO WAY!! If I by some miracle see another one up here I'll gladly grab it for you

     

    He is still only 50% off at all the stores here and I am so sad about it!! My ds3 really wants one, but I just can't spend $65 on one toy for his birthday. I gotta keep watching.

  6. I guess you just have to make sure there are any left before you return. I'm not sure about these Kid Tough DVD players though. I just have a feeling once they hit 75% off one Ebayer will just take all of them. :no:

    My sister went to a store yesterday morning after dropping her kids off at school. She was still there pretty early, but there was a man at the front with at least 27 carts (that is how many she could count). He spent over $5000 and was planning to resell it all.

     

    How frustrating!

  7. Yes, I got him yesterday for 75% off ($32.48) Here is the dpci

     

    ####204033058 Spike the Dinosaur

     

    I also find this format tedious, but I'm happy to go look something up on my receipt if someone wants to ask specifically. Doing this during the toy sale though is really kind of futile (IMO). Nothing is going to stay on the shelf very long at 75% off. I think we were all witness to that in some way or another yesterday. Occasionally we will get lucky and find something that isn't stickered or is a return and get lucky, but during this sale it's pretty much just find and grab.

     

    Maybe I'm missing the point to how exactly people are using this dpci list format - with the ###. Do you go into the store and just start entering numbers into the aisle scanners to see if it's available? Or do you call the store??? I guess I don't use it, so maybe I'm just outta the loop on how it's used.

     

    I am so jealous! I went to 4 stores (including one that still had 20 left) and they were onle 50% off. That is still too steep for me, but I would love one for ds's b-day!

  8.  

    Could it be the economy? Could it just be a one year trial thing?

     

     

    Yes and yes! From what a manager was saying there today Target is trying this out this year because of the economy. They are trying to be more conservative and control losses on some of the larger items. That is why the more pricey things (Biscuit, Smores, Spike, Kid Tough) didn't go today all the way down.

     

    It might just be good for them. I still saw plenty of that stuff being scooped up even though it wasn't 75% off. I would be sad if they switch to this permanently, but if it is successful now I would imagine they would.

  9. My Target went 75% today.. I hit 2 of them and got a VANLOAD of stuff!! Now... where the heck am I going to put it lol?!!?!

     

    Couldn't have said it better myself! Two stores, van FULL, and nowhere to put it all! But, all the niehgborhood b-day party gifts are good to go!

     

    If anyone happens to see the Cars Screamin Banshee toy today I would go to great lengths to get one! My sis had the only one at her store and someone took it from her cart!!! Between the two of us we tried 4 stores, but none to be found.
