I almost always seem to catch them on sundays. Although I totally think it varies. Because the one 20 minutes north of me always does them and the one 20 minutes south never does them, but then they never have any clearance stuff, or if they do its half what the other store has. I love their blue light specials I got the Bratz limo 2 years ago for $10 at one when it was still $60 at TRU! Vicki

Man my walmart must suck! They had the entire front of the store lined with tables of JUST clearance toys. They had the big R/C cars on clearance for $79. The mermaid Barbies were $5 which is what I paid on black friday. THen they had the disney plug and play thing for $20 same price as Black friday. Everything was only 2-3 dollars off. They had the whack a mole for the tv clearanced at $18 I paid $4 at Target last week. I want good clearance stuff like the rest of you get!

Went to Target yesterday got a ton of stuff! Schwinn 16in stingray bike with training wheels $33! originally $109 girls and boys sweatshirts $1.64 org. 5.99 Black and Decker Gizmo can opener $4.98 org 19.99 Eagles Jersey's $6.24 org $24.99 Luv Cub toy $3.24 orig $14.99 Bill was $110 but we got over $260 worth of stuff! They also had the 14 in 1 game tables for $28 they were originally $120! Vicki

Do all Walmarts have a different Clearance schedule and procedure? Other then holiday Clearance stuff my Walmart never has clearance. If it does its always less then a dollar off or just a dollar but the item is normally over $25! They have had the same clearance stuff for months and it never goes anywhere. Hoping the new Walmart they will be opening soon will be different. I will finally have more then one Walmart in less then an hour drive now if only they will open another Target! Vicki

i AM SO JEALOUS! I have been searching for the Lmax's and I can not seem to find them. I even drove over an hour to the second Target in my area and they didn't have them either. That the the books to that darn Care Bear are now non existant on clearance. If anyone is willing to pick one up for me I would appreciate it! Vicki

Target in South Jersey was 75% an employee told me it went to 75 last night and they quickly went from 3 full isles to barely one. Of course I didn't get what I really really really wanted and that was the Leapster Lmax but I did get the care bear read along bear for less then $10! Now to find more of the books cartidges for it! Vicki

Just hit there and if I didn't have DH nagging that he was hungry I would have looked more. LOL I was able to get a plug and play Disney game for $4.99! Plus 2 sweaters for my DD for $7 a piece. Vicki

LOVE LOVE LOVE Old Navy sales! So thanks to the OP for this one! I went and got about 12 shirts for my kids. Some the graphic long sleeve tees and some fleeces and we spent $40! Hopefully in another few days it will go 50% off and I will make another stop. Vicki

I went thinking that the gifts sets would be more then 40% off too but NOOOO of course not. My Kmart has about 2 isles full of bath sets and then some end caps through out the store yet they are still at 40%. I guess I'll have to keep going in there the manager loves doing the blue light sales and lowering clearance stuff at random times. Hit them after Halloween and got a TON of costumes and decorations 90% off and then the girl at the register took 75% off of that so I got costumes for .25! Vicki

My 2 yo brother got one for Christmas and I think its adorable! Although I didn't get the pleasure of having to download anything so I don't know how that works. His name is Jonathan so it didn't have any problems there. If they still make it check out the My learning leap. Its programable and you can buy cartridges that go with it that can also be programmed. You do all the programming with a built in microphone thing. My DD is 4 and LOVES the one santa broght her for christmas. She has an autism spectrum disorder and really likes things that talk to her and the fact that it said her name really got her excited. Vicki

How come I am just seeing this thread now? I got from DH 1ct diamond hoop earings Bath set socks, socks and more socks ( I so needed them) 1 ct diamond bracelet x's and o's and I can't even wear cause the clasp won't lock. Took it back to Gordan's jewlers twice the woman took pliers to it the first time said if it happens again she would send it out. Next day same thing DH takes it back and she did the same thing again. Next day off it comes. So we will see what the story is now!!!!! From my parents $100 gc to walmart $50 to Olive Garden $30 to AC moore $50 to Wawa 2 2person passes to the movies plus $20 concession GC $100 Sears GC My sister $10 Wawa $100 Fashion bug It was a good year! Vicki

I hope its not true but I'm reading that things are starting to be salvaged at 75% and that they may not go to 90%. 2 people on another board said they hit Target this morning and things were being taken off the shelves and boxed up. I really hope not! Vicki

UGHHH why are only some target's at 75% off for toys? Mine only has some things at 50% and the rest at 15-30. I was able to pick up some Toy Story toys a space ship at 9.97 originally 19.99 and 2 packs of men for $4.49 originally $9.99 but I only got them because there was a few left and I knew my DS would go nuts! Vicki

Was so excited about the Dora thing I forgot to post my deals LOL Target Dora ornament Outdoor train thing for $11 Care Bears wrapping paper .74 set of gift bags $1 Lighted garland $5 Walmart wrapping paper .22 Bulbs to replace the ones the idiots in my neighborhood stole .20 Ribbon lights $2 or less then that not sure Garland lights $2 or around there I think thats it. They really didn't have much that we wanted or needed this year. I am still waiting for Kmart to go lower. They have a bunch of stuff I wanted. Plus I still have to do the CVS, Eckerds and Rite Aid rounds and see what they have left as well. Vicki

Ohhh where was this?? We have the talking house but we still need one room and some of the additions. DD's b-day is in March and I love being done shopping months ahead of time! TIA Vicki

Havne't hit my Target in South Jersey yet but a ton of people on another board said all of theirs are 75% off today. So I may make a trip out there later and will let you know. I am NEVER a lucky one to have markdowns early. Heck our toys are still 30% where everyone else is 75%. Don't they know I have money to spend!!!! Vicki

Actually they are all not on the same schedule. They are trying a new thing this year and about 15% off stores are trying a store to store basis on markdowns. They are doing it inventory and last years sales specs. So some are at 75%, others will go on the 1st and others will wait till they actually get rid of more inventory to go to 75%. Vicki

UGHHH I had the same thing happen to me with the same darn toy!!! DS LOVES fantastic 4 and he had a $25 gc for Christmas that was the first thing he picked up that and was pretty excited since it wasn't the human torch set with the little torpedos. Went over to scan it to see if it was indeed the $29.99 the shelf said and it rang up 31.49! I asked someone and they said pretty much nothing but its not on sale. Then DH went into the game zone and saw that Grand Tourismo 4 was in the sale circular AND in the sale area. So he grabbed it all excited. Asked the girl doing the markdowns how much she scans it and says $49.99. WHich is the regular price. So they quickly took it from DH and the rest off the shelf along with the new Dora game and pretty much said oh well no manager here tonight. I am NOT happy with TRU! Vicki

OHHH thanks! I'll have to check mine out tomorrow. They never really have the greatest toys but I am sure I can find somethings to put away for birthdays, Easter and next Christmas! Vicki

I am hitting B&BW tomorrow for their sale! Vicki

The rumor I've heard for Target is it will be 75% off on Friday and then 90% on either sunday or monday. Then there is a new thing that about 12-15% of Target stores are doing with their markdowns. Those stores are supposidly doing their markdown based on stock and previous years sales. This is just what I've seen on other boards so not 100% sure. HTH Vicki

Thanks!! Went to Best Buy and they were out ofthe membership cards and walmart says they don't carry them.Not sure if thats true or not but not braving that traffic and mob. So I think she will be trying Rhapsody I can just print out the card for it. Thanks! Vicki

My sister has a Napster to go membership and I was thinking of getting her a GC for there but the only ones I see aren't for what she uses it for. I looked on their website and I can't seem to find anything. Or anyone use rhapsody and recommend it? She is my last gift and she is impossible to shop for! TIA Vicki

I think its a great idea!!! I got one for my 5yo DD and my 3.5 yo DD and my DS who is 4 saw one he loved at TRU when they had the coupon I ran right over and picked him up one. My kids are 11 months and 10 months apart and are always playing house or school, heck they even play dress up together. The girls are the princesses and my DS is always some super hero that comes and saves them. I think a doll for a boy is great for their imagination and teaches them how to care for others! Vicki

That 7 in 1 furniture set has actually been that price for quit some time. It clearanced thing at my store about a month ago at that price. A friend of mine got it and said it was worth about the sale price. The reviews on amazon aren't that great on it either. Vicki
