  1. I had been watching these like a hawk in several stores, checking them several times a week. Poof they all disappeared one day. Even the small pieces. Must have salvaged them without going 75% off. :mad: I can't imagine one person buying every single piece, down to the nuts and bolts.

    We bought quite a few pieces of this system last week when it was 75% at our store...we went to lunch and realized while we were talking that we wanted more pieces to the set. We went back around an hour later and EVERY piece was gone except the little hooks and baskets that go on the peg board. We asked the guy who helped us wheel our stuff out on the flatbead and he said some guy came in and bought up the entire stock they had left. There was TONS left....can't imagine what he wanted with so much stuff. We were kinda disappointed! Must have been some really popular stuff...on the other hand, we like it, it's just not as sturdy as we would have liked but for what we paid for it, it works!

  2. Got a fantastic deal on some Dyson vacuums:

     

    ### 072070202 Dyson DC07 Pink full size vacuum $199.50 (50% off)

    ### 072070552 Dyson DC16 Root 6 Animal handheld vacuum $99.50 (50% off)

     

    The crazy thing was, they gave me a $75 gift card for buying the DC07 - which is the promotion for the full-priced Dysons this week! So the net price was $124.50, with $30 of the purchase price going to breast cancer research! :D Their little ploy worked though, 'cause I blew the gift card on some FULL PRICED towels... AAARRRGGGHHHH... they were so soft I couldn't resist...

    I am soooo jealous!! Now I need to go look again today at ALL my stores!!! That is an awesome deal on the pink Dyson that I have been stalking!!! I'm so happy for you!! And I bet I know just what towels you got. I had dreams of them going 75% off and getting a huge set of them!!!

  3. I am looking to see if anyone else has noticed clearanced pinatas? I saw them in the craft/crayola aisle last week and never gave them a second look because I had no need but now I am planning my dad's 70th birthday party and I think a fiesta sounds like fun! So has anyone else seen these and if so what is the percentage off and what is the clearance price or original price? Also, does anyone think I'd just be better off getting these at a wholesale website like Oriental Trading?

    I saw a few today. The only ones my store had on clearance was a car and one animal. They were 30% off the original I think was around $12. I usually find them cheaper at party stores with their coupons that come in my mail. Now if they go to 75% I'll be happy to grab a couple but I have seen the same party stuff on sale for two weeks in a row now and it hasn't budged in price but getting slimmer every day! I am stalking the pinata fillers!

  4. Yeah, all my crayola stuff rang 75%, but I'm not too upset, cause it's still a great deal! I am kinda confused about my store though. For three weeks Rock Band 1 has been on clearance with a sticker for 30% off at around 90.00. I was waiting for 50% before I got it. Went to check today since another member said their store was at 50% and it is back to regular price!!! What is up with that??
  5. The four stores I went to today had V-Day for 50% off, but not a whole lot left other than candy and a few little toy items. Dollar spot was only 30% for red dot which I thought was odd. I have seen dollar spot go 30 before, but it is usually not on "holiday" themed stuff which most of this was. Other than that, there was not a whole lot of anything on clearance. The GB, or whatever they decided to call it this year, was almost all gone and the few remaining items were really beat up. I saw a black mirror I wanted at two of the stores, but both were really banged up so I passed.
  6. ###082070395 Razor Pocket Mod Bistro Scooter $114.XX 50% off

    I was at my local target today and just happened to walk by the 75% off toy isle so I decided to take a look. There were two of these scooters neatly placed on the shelf. The only thing that was ove rthere was 75% off toys so I figured I would see how much it rang up. Neither of the scooters had a red clearance tag. I managed to pull it off the shelf but I knew I would be unable to carry it to a scanner. I called some one over from electronics and they scanned it with the hand scanner the price above is what he said it rang up and it stated that it was clearance. I had no idea what the original price was so I decided not to get it. I came home and looked it up online and saw that the original price was 229. I went back and one was already gone and the other one that I pulled off the shelf was still sitting where had set it right by the shelf. I went back later to try and get it at 75%. When I called someone over they said that it was ringing up 50% and if it would have been on the shelf they would have given it to me for 75% but because I pulled it off the shelf and they didn't see it on the shelf t hey wouldn't! UGH!

    One of my Target's had it on the toy clearance aisle but it was near the 30% signs even though it rang for 50%. I passed, but if it makes it to 75% I'll definitley pick at least one up for Christmas!

  7. I finally got the Dora Tennis Rocket - 19" for DD3 for 3.84 (75%). I've seen these at lower % at one Target and was hoping to pick one up at 75% but they were all gone. Then Today I found 3 at a Target I haven't been to in a while. They were kind of hidden behind some other non-clearanced adult ones and the side with a clearance sticker was facing the wall.

    I checked on bike helmets but only saw Diego 5+ at 75%. Unfortunately I need a girls one 5+ and boys one 3+.

    I've been seeing so many items lately clearanced at one store but full price at other stores. I don't understand why that it?

    Like all that Eddie Bauer stuff (digital key chain, LED light), bike helmets, shoes. I saw those princess girls shoes and a bunch of boys shoes on clearance at one store but full price in another..

    Is there any chance these will get discounted shortly or not until Spring clearance?

     

    Also can anyone tell me when is the next shoe clearance?

    I have noticed at my stores that the Eddie Bauer stuff and sporting goods is going at very different times at each store. I keep stalking those aisles now as there are a few things I'd like to have that sold out quickly at the other stores.

  8. Depends. What did you find? It could be your store found some stuff in the back. They could be behind or ahead of other stores. Maybe they got some clearance stuff shipped in from another store. Or, it could be new clearance. They do clearance throughout the year, not just during their big clearance "events." If they introduced some items since the reset or even later in the fall that aren't doing well, they'll clearance them now. They are constantly reviewing what they have and what they'll continue to stock. They could need shelf space to make way for some new merchandise that is coming in. Something that is selling well in other stores that they think will do better than what you are seeing on clearance. So, do let us know what you found, and maybe we'll have a better idea.

    I also saw a section where it had 75% Tags Friday now has 30% tags with a bit of merchandise. The only thing that caught my attention and I scanned since I thought they would be 75% were these really long (around three feet maybe) fire truck and semi truck sets with the lights and sirens. There were a few other things (about a quarter of an aisle on one side) but nothing else that I paid attention to. These are toys that I hadn't seen at any of the 8 Targets that I shop at. This one also had the Christmas Flannel sheet set at 30% even though the other stores went 90% on these with xmas clearance. Not sure if some stores just do their own thing or what!

  9. Can anyone tell me where they've been seeing the Roomba on clearance? Is it randomly dispersed throughout the store or is it on specific location? I really wanna try and get one of these for us. Thanks!

    I have seen them in three spots in different stores. Usually each store only had one and when I saw them they were 50%. They were by the pic frames on an endcap, with the kitchen appliances on the endcap, and with hardware at one store. Guess it's just where the tm thought vaccuums belonged.

  10. I'm really hoping that the one Target I was counting on has taken loads of toys to the back for markdowns tomorrow. Sunday there were two entire aisles full of toys and today only one half of an aisle remains. This is a relatively new Target that is never crowded so I find it hard to believe in three days they sold out of everything considering I still saw a lot at only 30%. I can't get there until tomorrow afternoon which stinks since I would like to get a Biscuit for my daughter and a few other things that I saw they had tonite and a few more I hope they put in the back for the mark down team.

     

    Another question I had was has anyone actually used the Fly Fusion. I got one for my DD 11 since she saw it the other day and wanted one. I got it as a Christmas gift so I can't use it and see if I like it. I am headed off to do some reading on reviews, but I figure one of Ya'll has probably used it and maybe has an opinion. The other thing I got for a gift is a projector that was in the toy aisle for 24.xx orig 99.xx. It says it is a "dark room" projector for playing video games or watching movies. It looked cool and now I'm wondering if I should have bought it. I don't have it here for a name, I take the xmas gifts to my office to hide so I don't know the brand. Don't want to take it out of the box so if anyone has any reviews they'd be much appreciated!

  11. Hit 2 of my Wednesday Markdown Targets today and both were at 75% off. I was able to get my misplaced DVD players at each of them. I was surprised they even scanned at 75% off. I'm wondering if other people stashed some as well.

     

    I was so bummed that I JUST missed the Kid Jamz studio. As I was checking out I noticed another mom with her cart full and she grabbed the last one! I hate it when that happens!

    Which two did you go two. I think you are in roughly the same area as me? I had a rough day at work and couldn't do my stop ins to the stores today so I'm going to go out in this downpour and look. TIA

     

    OOPS!! Just saw your last post. Darn it, I went to both of those yesterday just to look and that is too far for me in this mess out here! Guess I will keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow something being left!

  12. I remember last year we got 3 chandeliers for 90% off in the global bazaar.. but they were also not clearance stickered. I hope too they don't advertise to the whole country when they go clearance. I just like to walk in when they open and see 90% signs in the home design area. It's like this dream I bet we all have. haha :D

    I know, I hate seeing that they are advertising their clearance too! I know it helps them, but it hurt us! I really didn't like to see them advertise their bed and bath stuff this week because that is the only explanation I can find for the swarm of people over in that section today! They have part of the set I want for my bathroom on clearance but at this rate it will be gone before it makes it to 50%!!! And I like it, but I still refuse to pay almost five bucks for a hand towel.........I know, I'm cheap, but at least I'm in good company on here!! :yup:

  13. **How did you know it was marked-down?? I might need 12" for ds. I glanced over the bikes section Today but didn't notice any red tags or clearance signs so I didn't bother taking a closer look.

    Don't mean to hijack, but I got one also so I thought i'd try to help. The store I found them in had three on the actual clearance aisle, and two more that were with the bikes. They had red stickers on them, but with the package being large and the sticker was on the print it was hard to see. There were no clearance signs in front of the ones on the regular shelf. HTH

  14. ### 082030183 16 inch Tony Hawk Boys Bike with training wheels. Green & Black Paid $24.98 :eyepoppin Was $99.99

     

    Couldn't find it on target.com but found it here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001CGX0Z8?smid=ATOE86MRWJ1J7&tag=dealt5254dealt&linkCode=asn

    I got one of these for my nephews last week and I was going to save it for Christmas, but his got stolen, so I went ahead and gave it to him now. He loves it, not just cause it's a bike, but it's "tony hawk" he was sooooo excited. I'm still the favorite aunt!!!! :D

  15. Thanks for the info! I live about 4 miles from the S. Independence Target. It's a good store but it's just so crowded ALL the time so it's hard to get the good deals! I've had much better luck at the new Target at Red Mill Commons and the remodeled Target at Military Highway. It seems like there aren't as many clearance shoppers at the Military Hwy one.

    NEW TARGET??? LOL Where have I been?? I'm not too familiar with Va. Beach, and don't know where this new one is. I only know of the 3 in Chesapeake, Military hwy, Indep, Hampon, NN, and 2 in Wmsbg. I went to Target website and it doesn't list but one in Va Beach. Any info would be great! Thanks.

  16. Is this the Target in the shopping center with Babies R Us and Old Navy? I forget the name of it.

     

    Do you remember what the DVD players are at? 50%?

    No, this is the one all the way down the Expressway like you are headed to Nags Head. Sounds like a drive but it's not really if you haven't been out there. This is a much quieter store since they are still developing the area. Are you talking about the "kid dvd players?" I want to say they were at 70-something, but there were only 2 left if those are the ones unless there are more in the back. The guy that was straightening the shelves said they have a little more stuff to bring out and they are marking it a little at a time since they are so busy doing other sections also. Aside from the toys at this one though, I didn't see alot else and there were only a few things in electronics and I had to hunt for them, they were on a hanging strip on the side of an endcap of all places! Wasn't even enough for one shelf of an end! Although S. Indep didn't have any in electronics either!

  17. Was this at Target on S. Independence??? I was there around 3 and put the knives in my cart. Then, I decided I didn't really want them since it would use up counterspace (I like to keep my counters clear) so I put it back. It was on the endcap in the housewares section, right? Regular price $19.99 and clearanced at $4.99. It was the only one I noticed!!

    Yep! I don't usually do this store because it is so out of my way and I loathe 264, but had to be in the area and dropped in. Thanks for putting it back.! I love my counter space too, so my butcher blocks always get a home in the cabinet! And for some reason I have to buy these things every few years..........do knives just grow feet and walk away?? I refuse to buy a pricey one anymore cause pieces turn up missing somehow.

  18. Well, I couldn't stand only doing one store today so I headed out a couple of hours ago. Went to the Chesapeake Target off the Expressway. This one was a mix too, but a VERY organized mix compared to Indep. store today. I had toys all to myself for a good while and no kids tonite!! Was able to spend a small fortune! I am always so worried that since I have to work all day and can never make it there at opening I will miss the deals. The one thing I cannot find anywhere is the Didji Star Wars pack everyone is talking about! Things I was able to pick up today:

    064053498 Pooh Lighted Bath Hoodie

    249110076 Gaming Ottoman

    082030183 Tony Hawk Freestyle Bike (I am gonna be the favorite Aunt this x-mas, lol)

    207121773 Playstation Game, can't remember the name, but it looks fun

    082060131 Inline skates for my daughter (I'm hoping she can fit them at xmas-they are size 5)

    086000993 Little People Doodle Pro

    086002381 Disney Sticker Maker

     

    Lots of Indiana Jones and Hotwheel stuff, but I don't know which DCPI goes to which toy! Also scored a few of the vtech learning toys for 3.74 one was a clock and I don't rem what the other was. I had so much stuff it barely fit in the car! I am going to try to do my rounds again tomorrow, but I hate Weekend shopping at Target! It is so darn crowded and never enough cashiers!

  19. Hey, has anyone checked the N.N, Hampton or chesapeake stores yet? My dd is a little under the weather. Won't be able to check today!!

    I did the Va Beach store after work tonite and it was a mix and MESS of three aisles with a jumble of 30/50/75. Best buys I found were in the clothes sections and housewares. TONS of 75 to be found! I got lots of stuff but really happy with the butcher block with knives for 4.xx and the video game ottoman for 14.xx! Picked up a few toys but nothing too exciting except the water baby my dd wanted for 4.xx. Tons of people there. Oh why oh why do I want a career when I could be out shopping all day when it isn't crowded???? LOL!!

  20. I found the marked scotch tape and the gift wrap cutters at my target tonite, and they scanned NOF. I took them up to the cashier and told her they were Christmas so they should be 90% off and she said i thought christmas was at 75 with a terribly puzzled look. I told her that the big signs said 90% and she just shrugged and adjusted all the stuff I got. I only got three of each otherwise she may not have put them through. I just didn't mention that the signs were out YESTERDAY, lol! Cause all the chrismas is gone. The aisles were complety empty with just a couple of broken bulbs.
  21. Has anyone found these canopies for this price? I have found them for $49.95 and my husband wants to get one but I told him that someone on gottadeal got one of $24.98 and we should keep looking. We have looked in SC, GA and FL and they are all $49.95. I may have to get one at this price before they are all gone.

    Yes, I saw two left Friday for 24.98 at one of my Chesapeake, Va stores I believe. I shop at 6 Targets, but I think this was in Chesapeake. I passed on it since we bought one a year ago for an obscene amount of money before I learned the secret of Target!! Hope you find one!
