Target has a bunch of new toys out that were put out after there clearance. Alot of new barbie sized dolls. My girls liked those but I forgot their names, leap pad 2 will def be huge. Im still waiting for my kids to start narrowing down on what their faves are, right now they just want everything they see..lol

I LOVE the idea of orange with Navy writing!!

Has anyone started thinking about their lists yet? I usually this time of year start to create a list of how many people I need to buy for and now with all my kids in school my list is really growing. My kids have already started their lists as well ( which I even think is a bit early) but they are getting excited that its almost Fall and are seeing new toys in the stores. When do you all start making your lists ? Your kids lists? Do you rely mainly on Black Friday sales on what you put on the lists or by what they request early on? I tend to have their lists and then add on Black Friday sales as well and then I overbuy..trying to cut down a bit this year but I say this every year and it never happens..lol

I like the idea of red or yellow. With the logo being black or Navy. I think that would appeal to everyone. =)

I dont really budget until I see how good the deals are and what on the lists match with bf sales. I have a number Im comfortable with (around 1000) but sometimes I go over, sometimes even under...

I am ready!!! Im not sure my bank account is, but I am =)

I had furbys when I was young and loved em but they were SO hard to get. my brother worked at kb toys and he wasnt allowed to buy them because they were for customers only. That craze was insane for him...I did get my hands on one but Im pretty sure they were like 10 bucks retail back then...dont think I would spend 60 unless it does ALOT more then it did when I was younger...

I LOVE to shop and Black Friday for me each year is like a holiday in itself =)...but I do NOT like all these stores opening on Thanksgiving, no deal on earth is good enough for me to leave my family that day. I know everyone is different and Im not saying my opinion is right or wrong...just saying I miss the older days when black friday was ACTUALLY black FRIDAY..lol

Lol!! I would love the forum to be open =) But, I know he usually opens it in late August. I can wait until then =)

Went to the TArget closer to my house today. It had more toys o clearance then the store I went to last week all between 30-50% off. Still not as big as a variety as normally, some cute stuff but wondering if it will hold to 70% for another month since there is not that much...

I grabbed it too, one christmas gift off the list checked off =)

Went to target today, I sure hope they are planning to clearance more toys then what they have stickers on, there was barely any toys with clearance stickers on them and only about a handful that I would actually buy...

I was at Target on Sunday and there was not a clearance sticker to be had anywhere in the store more then 15% off. Nothing on toys at all so I will need to go back to check out what they are clearancing this year because at this point I have no clue. I have only been going about once every 2-3 weeks but I will make another trip now!

Anyone remember when the big toy clearance is at Target in July? I cant eremember if it is the beginning/middle or end of themonth. Thanks =)

Good luck. I had an issue with Reward dollars and it took months and SEVERAL calls to corporate to finally get them!

Brandon store must of gone 70% off this weekend because there was hardly any left but did score a thomas train track set and some paper jams, so was overall happy with that. Boots I want for the kids are still HOLDING at 30%!!

I didnt have a chance to get to my other target this weekened. Im hoping it didnt go 70% during that time. I will be there in the morning to see but if I missed it at least I got a good haul from the other store! Anyone else have any good luck this weekend?

Still 50% here at Brandon Target. Do stores ever mark down on the weekend because Im clueless at this point. This has never happened before where one of my store went and the other didnt!

Brandon Target was still 50% off today and none of the team members had any idea when they were marking down. Very weird, this has never happened before, Im going to go there later tonight and see what happens? As for Bloomingdale it must of been ransacked, NOTHING but junk left, so I was sure glad I got such a good haul yesterday!

Went back to the Brandon Target and I couldnt believe it, they werent lying, they were not marked down today! But, I was thrilled that I did go today because only a few of their toys were 70% off for a few weeks now and they had a barbie charm school bedroom dollhouse set for 11.98 originally 39.99 and right next to it was the Barbie perfect CHristmas holiday Barbie set which I have been searching everywhere for and has def not been there, my guess is someone hid these two things in a stash or something and they just found it and put it back or were returns, either way I grabbed it, it only scanned at 50% but I bought it because I was planning on buying it weeks ago at 50% but just couldnt find it, so overall was REALLY happy I went back, hopefully they mark down 2morrow! Someone said it might not be until Saturday, I hope thats wrong because I will not get a good pick then.

My one store this morning was 70% off, they were marking down as I got there. GREAT boy selection stocked up on SO many cars toys for my lil man! I did buy the cars legos at 50% off because he loves them so much and was scared they wouldnt make it to 70% off and he would be sad! However my other Target was not marked down at all and the employees all said there was no plans for it today, VERY weird since every single mark downthose stores mark on the same day. They only had a few things I wanted anyway for my girls, I will go back tonight to see if they were lying to me or not. If not I will be there first thing in the am 2morrow! my list lps walkable 086020718 1.51 polly pocket set 086022465 3.88 teacup piggies 086022664 2.98 ( bought 2 of them) polly pocket playset 086022676 7.48 barbie gel set 086060070 5.98 disney cinderella doll 086071014 4.52 cars mcqueen rc vehicle 087050803 14.98 ( woooohoo) cars2 lights n sounds 4 pack 087071011 10.48 cars2 franceso n mcqueen 087071059 13.48 cars2 mater 087071961 17.98 (wooohooo) cars2 launchpad w/mcqueen 087071995 8.08 mega cars 3d puzzle 087090681 5.98 at 50% I picked up cars2 francesco lego set 204000532 14.98 cars2 mcqueen lego set 204000535 14.98 Overall I was very happy with my selection, I just wish the other store was marked down cause they have some great stuff, hope I dont miss it!!

Both my stores were 90% today, finally got out since Ive been sick all week. One store only had one tiny endcap, and my other store had about 2 aisles left of bows, tissue paper, wrapping paper, and gift bags. I bought a few of each. One store had a few tins for goodies and I picked up a few of those as well. As far as toys most of the toys were at 50%. A VERY small few were 70% off so Im thinking next week. Selection at both stores were about the same. ALOT of cars items so I will hopefully be able to stock up for my son. As far as girl stuff there was not really anything my dd's would love but since they are getting older they are a bit pickier. Was bummed though, last week they had a TON of disney princess castles at 30% off, I was gonna hold until 50% to buy but since Ive been sick all week I havent been out, they were all gone! There were still a few of those kitchens left.
