  1. Depends on the store, and the manager. I know Kmart used to mark Halloween down to 10 cents a couple of week after Halloween, and Christmas down to 25 cents. You just never know.

     

    PS YMMV, but check the regular candy aisle and scan a few bags to see if they are 75% off. You would be amazed at what you find. I do this every year, and always find a couple marked down. No one ever thinks to look there. This year at Target, I found Butter Fingers, and Reese PB cups for $.52 there even though the sign clearly said they were on sale for $2.

    Wish I had known this yesterday when I went to Target. Oh well. I did get a Dallas Cowboys chair (one of those for camping or tailgating with a detachable foot stool) for $6.24. I'm giving it to my db for his birthday.

  2. Has anyone ever bought an item the day before Thanksgiving and then gone in on Thanksgiving and had them price adjust? Someone on another thread said they always do it at Target but just wondering if anyone has at Kmart. I would hate to get in line at 5AM for the TV and there not be any.
  3. Got the Dallas Cowboys chair for 6.24 today. It was 17.48 on Sunday. Got four doggie costumes for a buck a piece. Their folgers flavored coffee has been 3.99 for a couple of weeks now. Had three $1.00 off coupons so stocked up. Tiger Woods 2007 was still $30 so I put it back for now. They had a bunch. Got six pack of light bulbs for 1.60. They have those other packs of light bulbs on clearance that resemble the ones from awhile back that had gift cards in them. No markings on the package. Has anyone bought these recently?
  4. Hey everybody-

     

    Just to give everyone that shops at Meijer a heads up, that they will not be doing any PM on Black Friday at all. I work there and today a note was posted by our time clock that there is absolutley no PM on Black Friday. It was a corporate wide thing too, not just my store. I know Meijer has always been really wishy washy on whether they will or will not price match on Black Friday.........but this memo was pretty clear that we are not PM.

     

    I guess they are going to put something in our regular ad the week of Thanksgiving that we are not PM.

     

    I'm sorta disappointed myself....... sorry to be the barrer of bad news :(

     

    P.S- Still keeping my eyes peeled for the Thanksgiving and BF ads!!!!! :yup:

    What about Thanksgiving Day itself? Kmart's Thanksgiving Day ad has a TV that I would like to have. I have a Meijer in the town I live but I would have to drive 25 minutes to get to a Kmart. TIA

  5. 75% in Rossford, Ohio. Lots of stuff left, mostly costumes and decorations. Scored 4 MMs, haven't gotten those in months! They also have the 6 ft foldable banquet table for $29. That is the cheapest I've ever seen them. Bought several when they had them for $36 a while ago but this was a bonus.

     

    Back in the camping section, they had those lawn/camping chairs in the carry bag that had Dallas Cowboys on them. They were marked $17.48 (I didn't look at the normal price but can only image that is 15 or 30% off) so if anyone sees them for less, please let me know. I'll be keeping an eye on them. They had about 8 so I shouldn't have to go every day to check on them since my closest Target is 25 minutes away. Thanks!

    Howday Neighbor...We shop at the same Target. Wonder if we've ever passed each other shopping the end caps?

     

     

    Hi!

    I am in Toledo too! Usually shop in perrysburg though! Who knew so many Toledo peopel were on here!

    Miranda

    Where is there a SuperTarget in Toledo? All the ones I know about are regular ones: Rossford, Spring Meadows, Monroe Street, Alexis Road. I know there is a Super at Polaris in Columbus and a Greatland at Easton.

  7. And here they come! Thanks, Brad!

     

    A few nice things on that doorbusters list, however it probabbly won't be my line-waiting store either. Might stop in later to see if any of the portable DVD players or digital pic frames are left.

    Ace was the only store I went to last year, for the dvd player. I got there at 5:55 AM (our store opened at 7) and was the first in line. Ours is on Main Street (in a small town) so I could park right in front of the door but I brought a chair, my newspaper and a mug of coffee. A couple was a minute or two right behind me for the dvd player too. I think they only had ten. Quite a few more showed up pretty early and most were for the dvd player and a couple were there for some other electronic I don't remember. This store has a back door too but luckily the dvds were at the front register (I could see them thru the window). So at 7, the doors opened, I grabbed two dvd players (one for my ds and one for my sil) and was at work by 7:15. Just an FYI.

  8. i just type in las vegas in yahoo search and come up with so many web sites offering deals and coupons, etc. Yeah, if you are going to rent a car, most of the resorts on the strip have free parking areas (usually in the back) and you can walk thru the air conditioned casinos to get to other areas of the strip. We would park at a resort, see the sites there and several others in the area, got back in the car and drove further down and did the same thing again. there is so much walking that we never would have made it back and forth without this, especially if it is hot. i was there last sept but never got to check out the tram. sign up at some players clubs for freebies even if you dont plan to gamble there much; they'll send you emails for deals after you come home. if you are by the tropicana, get in line and do the free pull. and there is a mega hot dog for .99 at a place outside slots o fun (by circus circus) that was featured on food network that looks big enough to feed a family of four and they said it was pretty tasty. and definitely get the free drinks while gambling, altho the waitresses didn't seem to come around the penny slots very often lol. have fun. I plan on taking myself back again in about three years to celebrate getting my masters. and then four years after that, can take DS for his 21st. time flies.
  9. Got king sized packs of skittles for .26 (orig .89) and king size milky ways bars for .24. Only bought four milky ways but about 20 bags of the skittles (for DS) but still left a few. they had muscle milk (orig 14.99) for 3.76 so bought one for DS to try (he's gonna start weight training this summer). they had sponge bob and hello kitty calculators for 3.xx i thought were kinda cute. nothing else real exciting. they are still moving things around at the rossford store. some groceries back where they normally have seasonal. lots of empty shelves from easter; they haven't restocked yet. no .69 juice either. got my fix for the week tho.
  10. Didnt see much at our target... But if anyone is needing Knobs/handles, I saw 4 baskets full of them on a clearance end cap. Sign said 75%off.

    And I saw that Alegbra flypen software again... it was only $2.74 this time!

    Dang I wish I had a flypen. :) lol

    I wish I could find the software for that price. One store didn't have any left at any price and the one store I found them at about two weeks ago had them at 24.48. Is there any way you could get one for me if they still have them the next time you go and I could get you the $ to ship to me? I don't want to buy the pen unless I get this software. A couple of sites had them for 1/2 price (49.99) a week or so ago so I'm sure I can find it for that or even lower by next September when ds starts high school. TIA

  11. Didnt see any outdoor motion detectors at all.. even asked a sales associate.. she said "go to lowes." LOL

    I did see the Flypen Algebra software for $4.xx. marked down from $29.99.

    Too bad my DS doesnt have a flypen. :)

    I got a photo album that was Orig. $29.99 and paid $7.xx for it. Very nice, gonna use it as a wedding present in a few weeks.

    After seeing your post, I went to a Target that had two of the algebra flypen software but it was still marked 24.xx. I scanned it to see if it was cheaper but it came up 0.00 so i took it to the checkout and the clerk punched some numbers in and it was still 24.xx. so i passed. i know i saw it at another Target for 17.xx but was hoping to get it for at least 8.xx but 4.xx would be most excellent. i probably wont luck out.

     

    Are you in Richmond by any chance? I have a brother down there that I could send on an expedition if so. TIA

  12. Okay, so I went to the Spring Meadows store on Saturday. Didn't find a whole lot. They did have the about 4 juice boxes but I don't need those; I just like to scan them and make sure they are .69. Looking for the Tide but not a good price yet. They did have All 200 oz for 6.98 (15% off). Didn't like that price but needed it anyway so bought one. Went to Rossford Target today and they had the All for 3.xx so I was kicking myself about buying the other one for double and thinking I would have to "eat" that purchase since I rarely keep my receipts for items that I don't intend to take back. Bought three more of the All at 3.xx and they also had Downey fabric softener on clearance 3.18 for 80 loads which is better than the 40 load bottle clearance for 1.92. Bought a couple of those. Anyway, procrastination pays off because I have a trunk load of Target clearance stuff (at least 8 cases of slim fast, a case each of water and diet green tea (not really clearanced but on sale, a 1/2 price cannister set that I still have to give to my dad and never found another set for me in all my perusing, etc) because it has been too cold to really unload the car or I'm busy or the car was at the tire repair place for the last 24 hours waiting for them to remove the nail in my tire, so...after loading today's buys, I look at the All that is still in my trunk from Saturday thinking I should start keeping all my receipts when I see the Target bag from Saturday that I forgot still had a magazine in it I purchased. Lo and behold, my receipt was in the bag! So back goes the "high priced" All and back in my trunk go TWO of the lower price All for about a dollar more. Yippee! Good day but I'll probably wish I had gotten more of both, even tho I'm out of trunk space:-) If anyone sees that Algebra for the fly pen go below 17.xx, please post because my DS will be taking algebra next year. TIA
  13. Got a few small things last night. There was a small 8.5 oz Listerine w/breath strips attached for 1.25; got the sunsilk conditioner for 1.64-1.00 coupon; the sunsilk cream for 1.64-2.00 coupon; the mead two packs of notebooks were finally marked down to 1.24. And then I paid full price for a light up rubber duck for DD's easter basket :D

    Where are you located? Keep looking at the notebooks but still at 2.48 in NW Ohio. TIA

  14. If the manufacturer coupon deduction comes out to more off than the cost of the product they are supposed to adjust it.

    I emailed Target customer support and they sent me this in an email...

    Dear xxx xxxxx,

     

    Coupons are a great way to save even more when shopping at Target, and we make it easy to use them at our stores. But because of the variety of coupons available to our guests, we do have some guidelines for how coupons can be redeemed at Target:

     

    -We accept two kinds of coupons: Target-issued coupons and manufacturer-issued coupons.

    -We'll accept one Target coupon and one manufacturer coupon for the same item, unless either coupon prohibits it.

    -We can't give cash back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item; in that case, we'll adjust the value of the coupon to equal the price of the item.

    -We can't accept coupons from other retailers, or coupons for products not carried in our stores.

     

    All valid coupons should be presented to the cashier at the time of sale.

     

    Have questions or want more information about using coupons at Target? Check with a Guest Services Team Leader at your local store. You can also give us a call at (800) 440-0680, or visit us on Target.com. Either way, we're here to help!

     

    Thanks for shopping with us. We'll see you again soon at Target.

     

    Sincerely,

     

    Julie

    You can email customer support yourself and just keep the email they send you with you to show the manager. Or just keep the customer service number on your cell phone and call them right then. That is what the customer service rep told me to do.

     

    HTH

    Wish I had had this information when I tried to get the .89 bags of Archer Farms chips. Clerk wouldn't let me get those since the coupon was for $1. She never said anything about adjusting the coupon to match the price of the item, just that I had to buy the 1.99 bags. I passed on that. Oh well...

  15. I know this forum is for deal discussion but I just have to throw this in. My BF and I went to 3 different Target stores today, all within 30 minutes of each other. The first one had a bunch of GB items left and all the domestics items were 75% off. The second one had a small endcap of GB items and employees were in domestics pulling stuff off the shelves. The same stuff that was 75% off at the first store but only 50% at the second store. The third store had 30% off domestics and they were packing up the GB items. I did get some good deals but I was amazed that 3 stores all in the same county had such differences in their prices.

    I know what you mean. Went to one Target today and got a four cannister set for half price. It rang up 9.98 and I liked that one because it had the scoops that hang on the side with it. At lunch, told my dad about it and he said he could use some cannisters so I said I would give them to him. On the way home, stopped at a different Target and the same cannister set was full price. Even scanned it to make sure. They should all be on the same page concerning markdowns. And it isn't like these stores are on my way to work or just around the corner; one is 20 minutes away (where they were still full price) and the other is 40 minutes away so would have to make another special trip to get there and they would probably all be gone by then.

     

    Other stuff I got today was a 2007 Simpsons calendar for $1. It was originally 9.99 and when I scanned it it came up 0.00 so the clerk asked and was told to give me 90% off. Good deal since two months are pretty much gone already but DS loves Simpsons so he'll appreciate it. Also found one of the juice packs for .69. Why did I buy it? Don't really use much boxed juices anymore but it was apple and I figured for that price, I would drink the darn stuff myself after reading on here all of those that kept finding it. haha. Got four more choxie bars. No problem. Bought the last five cases of slimfast at the second Target today too. The first Target didn't have any. It was still 4.25 but I figured for an 8 pack (about .50 each can) it was worth it since I drink one every morning for breakfast.

     

    Gotta cut back on my Target trips (yeah, right). haha

  16. Got 8 choxie bars today. Four of them scanned 1.70 but the coupon took off $2 each. Slimfast was still 4.25 for an 8 pack. I have no other coupons for them but drink it every morning so bought it anyway. No juice boxes. Cascade tubs still 12.49. Had a shabby chic quilt in my basket, full size said 69.xx but scanned 24.xx. Ended up putting it back because I already have two really nice quilts and couldnt even justify the cheap price. Has anyone found shabby chic furniture on sale? I didnt bother scanning any but was just curious if they were clearancing that out as well as the bedding. This stuff was located between electronics and the GB section, over by the kids bedding and not with the adult bedding. I didn't see any clearance stickers but thought they should clearance the whole category. Just curious. Will be going to another store tomorrow. GB very slim pickings in Rossford. Everything else I picked up scanned what it said on the sticker so put a lot of stuff back.
