If anyone sees 75% in KC, will you please post? I'm home with a sick kid and I'm not sure if I'll be able to get out today, but if he's feeling better this afternoon we might head out if there are any reported 75% off deals here!

Checked two stores today...picnic still at 75% and toys still at 30-50% off. However, both stores had created a "clearance aisle" like some of you have seen in the toy section. They were resetting the toy area at both stores, too.

Does all this resetting point toward a faster markdown to 75 or more drawn out? I almost feel like if they are taking the trouble to move it to an aisle of it's own, they will leave it at 30-50 for a little while to see if they can move it. I'm still crossing my fingers for THIS week!

Yep...picnic at 75% off at my store, too! (Thanks for the update, TargetMum...I dropped everything and ran to my store!) I was so bummed that there were NO beach towels left...there had to be 20 or more just a day ago. But I got an adorable straw tote for $3.74 and a bunch of plastic dishes for under $.50 each. I saw more toys at 50% off at this store, but they were way behind with their 50% off markdowns, so they probably just evened themselves out with everyone else.

Anyone have a Friday update on the picnic stuff? Do we think it will go to 75% today or tomorrow?

It was just the standard Green Leapster (not the Leapster 2 or Didj). Though that store did have the Didj on sale, too (50% off I think).

Went today. Got a Leapster for 50% off ($24.98)! There were a bunch on the shelf, so I will keep checking and hopefully get one at 75% off and take this one back. Also found about 10 "Baby Alive" dolls in a little carrier for $6.xx...regularly $24.99, I think. Got one of those, too! Saw more 50% off at this store than my usual store, but the only 75+ item I saw was the Baby Alive. Picnic was 50% off, too...I can't believe they went from 30% to 50% in less than a week! It was VERY sparse already at this store. When are we thinking this stuff will be 75%?

Were they the orange juice or lemonade? That makes me nervous if they were the "regular" MMs...maybe the deal is on it's way out?

I found a few more toys today that looked better...some GI Joe airplanes and a few Baby Alive dolls. Here's hoping they keep adding to it! Our picnic stuff isn't on any markdown yet.

Went today and found pretty much NADA on clearance...patio still at 30% for the most part, the toys are still looking very bleak (though surely they will add all of the summery toys into clearance at some point). But, I think my Target got a new stocker b/c I found ANOTHER 5 MMs on the shelf--3 apples and 2 punch! I left a couple there (which is painful, but we can only drink so much juice)...I'm stocked up now!

I went today in the afternoon thinking that the selection would be pretty bad, but I wanted to go anyway to take advantage of the 50% off yoga wear. They were CLEARED OUT. There was one lonely XS striped tank top sitting on the huge table all by itself. I was able to get one top in my size that was stashed on a different table with other items. And I got a couple for my daughter (there was still a big selection of little kids ones...maybe people didn't realize that girls tops were on sale, too?). But it was cray-zay in there still at 1:00 p.m. I went to this same store for the $3 graphic tees and got there before opening. There were about 5 of us there when it opened and VERY few others came while I was in the store. I figured the tanks would be similar, but they said that they had people lined up down the sidewalk at opening today. I guess $2 is the pricepoint for craziness!!

WOOOO!!!!!! I found 5 MMs today at a store that NEVER has them. I think that maybe since they are on sale, they have had to stock them more often or something. 2 apple and 3 grape! I was almost out of juice boxes since my last haul, so it was great timing! Also found some cute shoes for my little girl...50% off. There were a lot of 30% off and a few 50%. I have to say that I am hoping that this is just the preview to the toy sale because the stuff that was on the endcaps at my store was REALLY uninteresting to me. I didn't see a single thing that I would buy even at 75% off. I am hoping that the rest will be better!

Also...the offer at Price Chopper says "one per household" but I wonder if you could send in one Price Chopper form and one Hen House form?

This is also happening at Price Chopper. This week Frosted Mini Wheats were on sale for $2.50/box. I bought 10, used a $1 coupon on each box, so I will get a $25 gc back for spending $15 on cereal! A great moneymaker! I would keep an eye out for sales at HH and PC for any Kellogg's products...could be some GREAT deals out there! (You could still get the Price Chopper deal, but the sale price is only good through 6/9).

The bulk stuff at my store (Ward Pkwy, KC) is mostly at 15%, but some is 30% off. The diapers are clearing out fast. I finally bought a box with coupons today at 30% because I know if I waited through the weekend they will all be gone. I'm holding out on the cleaning/personal items. I'm guessing it will stay at 30% for at least a week.

Saw two Roombas at 30% here in Kansas City ($13X.XX), along with a Weber Grill. I would LOVE one of those Roombas! I would only buy one at 75%, though, so it's probably not going to happen. Our bulk items are still mostly 15% and they moved almost all of it to the regular aisle endcaps. Which is good because regular shoppers may not notice it there, but bad b/c I have to walk all over the store to look for it all!

Went this morning to ON for the graphic t's...there were about 10 people there when it opened (thankfully no one my size!!). The selection wasn't great, but I was happy to get two for myself and one for my mom. I had a coupon for a free flag tee with any purchase this weekend, so one of them was free!

KC...what store did you look at? I was at the Mission one and most things were 15% still (and some weren't marked at all...most diapers were full price still). I am going to start stalking the bulk items b/c there are some GOOD deals to be had with coupons! I had a great Target run today...found 2 MMs (cashier didn't bat an eye) and got a bunch of stuff free with coupons.

That's awesome...thanks to those companies!

Love it!! That is how I felt when I found my first ones...I was skipping through the aisles afterwards!

I shop at the Ward Pkwy Target...it's hit or miss a lot of the time, but I have found some great deals there that I don't always see at my "other" Target (the one on SH. Mission Pkwy & Metcalf).

There was a huge markdown team today in health/beauty and I *FINALLY* got my stupid dragon humidifier at 50% off. I would have waited for 75%, but my daughter actually came down with a cold last night, so the timing was right. I also got a couple of bottles of Pantene shampoo...marked down to $1.88 each, but both had Target Coupon peelies and I used a Pantene coupon as well...got both bottles for $.76! Also got some Nexcare bandaids marked 50% off and used a coupon. I'm also really loving the Swiffer gift card promotion when combined with the Swiffer rebate, but I guess that is more for the "weekly deals" thread. One more thing...last week there was a TON of makeup at 30% off in the makeup section. I was waiting for it to go down to 50% off b/c I had some coupons that would have made for really great deals. But, this week...it was all gone! Vanished! They must have boxed it up b/c there was way too much sitting there for it all to have been purchased.

So today I found a Max & Ruby Easter DVD on the Electronics endcap. It wasn't marked at all. I was kind of excited thinking I would get it at 90%...didn't scan it, though. It rang up FULL PRICE! I didn't notice at the time b/c I had a ton of coupons that I was orgainzing. I went straight to the customer service desk and asked her but she wouldn't give it to me at 90%, so I returned it. Our clearance cleaning products were still on the shelf with little "clearance" tags on the shelf. I felt like I was on a scavenger hunt! Annoying! Most was 15-30%, but I got a couple of good deals with coupons. And my humidifier is STILL on 30% off...there are 8 of them on the shelf and they have been 30% for at least a month now. Our store was cleared out of clearance Leapsters.

Well, the cat's out of the bag now! That sucks!

Went today.... --There were TONS of packs of diapers/wipes 15% off in the Baby section on an end cap. Luvs, Huggies, Pampers, Pull-Ups, etc. I'm sure most of it will be gone before it goes to 30% or higher, but I'm hoping for some of the diapers to hang around. --My Disney princess bike was gone. But in it's place there were about 5 Hot Wheels & Barbie bikes...30% off right now.
