I'm not sure about the HUGE ones. There was only one big one at this store and it wasn't marked down. But it was hanging in a different area, so it's possible that they just forgot to mark it and the ones at other stores might be. I'm hoping to get two of the big stadium ones (one of each of the two teams in our state...my son likes both) but I think it's going to be hard to find them when they get marked down! I got one of the smaller ones for $9.98 today, though, so I'm happy!

Saw one of my stores that seemed to be starting the toy clearance today...they had filled a few endcaps with new 30% off clearance. No movement on the Kung Zhu stuff there, though. They definitely will all be marking down toys in the next week or so in order for the big 75% off markdown to happen the last week of July. The MLB prints were down 30-50% off at one of my stores and not marked at all at the other one. I saw TONS of clearance in almost all departments...most of it is just 30% off right now, but housewares, decor, clothing, shoes, and toys all have a ton.

Blue Dot was 70% off at my store, too. I found plain black frames (graduation...but they are plain black), father's day items, and that was about it.

The "Nerf" (not actually Nerf brand) stuff was all 75% off at my store this morning.

I would have talked to the manager immediately about the TV situation. Unless the employee was on break and actually purchasing the TVs at the time, then I am positive they are not allowed to say they are "in the process of being purchased." If they are still on the shelf, then they should be free game for anyone. Bummer that they did that! I haven't seen most of the things people are posting about at my store...they have pretty much nothing on clearance at the moment except for toys, but none of those Legos!

Go here to print a coupon for 50% off one item at Old Navy (in store only) good May 13-15. It says one per customer per transaction. http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/Old-Navy-Coupon Also...it's only good for regular priced items. :-) Oh, and cardholders have a "presale" this weekend for the $1 flip flop One Day Wonder. Saturday anyone with a Gap/Old Navy card can get up to 5 pair of flip flops for $1. Non-Cardholders can get the same deal next week (5/21).

Found the Space Police sets 75% off at Ward Parkway in KC. There were about 3 left as of this afternoon in the regular aisle.

Has anyone in KC found the Space Police sets marked to 75% off? I may try to stop in today to check, but if they were marked down yesterday it's probably too llate anyway.

Oh, yeah...I always say I'm "running errands." Sometimes I even say I'm "getting groceries" (which is technically true since I almost always buy groceries at Target, too). :) Yes, I have an addiction!

Salvaged at my store, but I managed to get 8 packs of crayons (that were not there on Sunday) for $.44 each. Got one of those lucky cashiers that just asked me how much they were. Saw lots of Diego Matchbox cars in the regular aisle, but didn't try to get them.

I ended up finding a Sing-a-Ma-Jig for $1.29, so I was excited about that! Also got some Playdoh and Moon Doh sets and the 6-pack of eggs filled with Florida's Naturals fruit snacks. I just took all of the fruit snacks out and will use them in lunches...they are tiny, but $.17/six isn't bad! Couldn't find any crayons at my store that were ringing 90% off. Bummer!

Read that this one is available in San Francisco, too, if anyone is interested. It's definitely a good deal for anyone who doesn't use coupons or someone who has some Groupon credits that they want to use on things that they actually NEED.

I saw this one, too, but I don't think it's that good of a deal unless the coupon book is out of this world. I'm pretty sure I could get all of that stuff for under $10 total with coupons.

Wow...you'll never guess what I saw on clearance! A great deal on some plastic christmas cups...originally $1.99, now just $1.04! And, you can also get a Valentine's Day throw for 50% off, too! Oh, and a set of Christmas salad plates...30% off! Apparently my store found some old holiday merch and decided it would be fun to put it out at 50% off, even though we all know the stuff went for 90% off not too long ago. Good luck selling those Christmas cups! REAL Clearance finds: Play Wonder wooden play kitchen: 30% off (about $83 or so). There were 4 of these at my store. Lots of bar stools and shelves...all 50% off. Bras finally went to 75% off late last week. Still have a 30% off sign hanging over them, so there are a lot left (Ward Pkwy store in KC). Most are $3.74 Other than that...sad state of affairs in clearance these days.

So excited! I snagged a Mario Super Sluggers game for the Wii for just $12.98! (75% off) My son is going to love it! There were a few other Wii games there at 75% off...a hockey one and something violent-looking. The cameras were all gone. Must have gotten marked down to 75% off. Printers were gone, too. There was a whole huge endcap full of BIG Space Police lego sets for $50.xx (50% off). Still a little high for me, but a good deal for the Lego loving crowd. Sadly, not much else to report from my store! I was just super happy with my Wii game score...it's going in the Easter basket for sure!

Right...the Rebel would be great, but I'm thinking it's going to be gone unless I get there the moment of the markdown. And it's 3 times more than the rest. I think there are Olympus and Kodak options....I didn't get to go over lunch and I can't remember which ones were marked down.

We lost our camera, so I am thinking I am going to go to Target today to see if the cameras have FINALLY gotten marked down at our store. They were still 30% off on Friday afternoon. My question is...for those of you who have gotten clearance cameras recently...what model did you get and do you like it? There are probably 3-4 point and shoot ones at my store (and sadly I think they are all display models) and one Canon Rebel (which would be awesome). Rather than go in blind I wanted to see if anyone had a recommendation of the ones that have been clearanced. Thanks!

There is no way to sign up for the mailers, unfortunately. No one can figure out why some people get mailers and some people don't. And some people that usually get mailers won't get one sometimes. They have some kind of weird formula. The only thing that seems to help is having a Red Card.

Boo Hoo. I must have missed the markdown for the crafts/stationary b/c I went today and there was hardly anything left. After I went almost every day last week checking, of COURSE they marked it down the day I didn't go. I was able to get some gift bags for $.74 each (HUGE striped ones...perfect for birthday parties). And a couple of odds and ends that were left. The end caps were actually totally stacked with stuff....just mostly 3 ring binders and that kind of thing. I saw kids' uniform pants at 30% off. I was so excited as I almost never get those at a discount, but they didn't have my son's size. But check out your store if your kids wear uniforms! Car Accessories/Tools were still 30% off. Kitchen was a mix of 30 and 50% off. Cameras were still 30% off. My Rebel is still there. Wish I could properly stalk that sucker!! Do we think they will mark those cameras to 50% off next Monday?

Yep...usually sitting with other clearance on endcaps. The key is (especially with the huge items) to always check out big cardboard boxes that are randomly sitting on an endcap. They may not have a photo of what is in them, but you can usually figure it out. And scan, scan, scan...half the time they aren't clearly marked. This one was, thankfully. It was too huge to lug to the scanner!

Totally SCORED on Friday...found an internet return wood baker's rack. Originally $119.98, marked $29.98! I just put it together and it's really good quality. We've been needing something like it for our breakfast nook so I'm so happy!! Love it when you come across a random deal like that!

Ours has a couple of Canon Rebels 30% off right now...would LOVE one of those for 50% off. Sadly, when I was looking at them the electronics guy was telling me that he was "watching" them too and hoping to get one when they marked down. So, probably no chance of me getting one! But maybe I'll get that display one if nothing else!

If anyone sees the car accessories marked down, I would love to hear about it. I have been watching for the last two weeks and they haven't budged from 15-30% off.

I forgot to mention this yesterday, but at the Ward Parkway Mall Target, the size 4t/5t pull ups from the bulk section (which are now in the random seasonal area where Easter will go) were 50% off ($8ish). They were signed 30% off and marked that way, too, but scanned 50% off. But it was just the 4t/5t ones...the 3t/4t ones were still 30% off. These were the girls ones. I saw boys ones marked 50% off in the baby section. And, the big Pampers wipes were ringing up $4.74ish. Not sure if that is 50 or 75% off.

Went this morning and was so excited b/c the markdown team was in stationary/crafts. However, they only marked down a few little calendars! I had them scan one of the Crayola sets and she claimed it wasn't getting marked down. Globes were still $44, too. I've been stalking all of those craft items...it seems like they will never go down at my store!
