I am looking to see if anyone else has noticed clearanced pinatas? I saw them in the craft/crayola aisle last week and never gave them a second look because I had no need but now I am planning my dad's 70th birthday party and I think a fiesta sounds like fun! So has anyone else seen these and if so what is the percentage off and what is the clearance price or original price? Also, does anyone think I'd just be better off getting these at a wholesale website like Oriental Trading?

I very rarely find "not found' items but I do like to go to young guys with coupons that other cashiers might see as "if-y" For example I had a target coupon for huggies and then a MF coupon and then on the package of diapers there was a Target coupon for a free tub of wipes with purchase-normally a woman would not let me use both Target coupons but the young boys send 'em right through or punch in the numbers.

I think my store may be 90% tomorrow because I remember Halloween going 90% on a Saturday...although now that I think about it, wasn't Halloween on a Friday? So that would be the 8th day and not the 7th. Do you think they would go down on a Sunday? I hope they just do it tomorrow and get it done with!

Those are the ones I want but I never saw them in my store-just in the Target sales ad! I am going to have to go searching after work. Did these come in a box or as is?

Babies R Us has a sale going on right now-you can get coupons from their website. I know there is a coupon for 15% off any one item-I am using it to but a stoller this weekend.

Last night I found a few ramdom items: xhileration headbands .98 (75), Nick and Nora 2 pack socks .98 (75), Herseys bags of square candy (like the Ghiradeli squares) 30% off, all Valentines Day was 15% off (never seen this before), GB was still 50%, bedding 75%, bathroom towels and rugs 75%, those newer picture frames in the black and pastel packaging all 75%, a few clocks 75%. I bought some picture frames, an "Irish Pub" oversized clock, and two girls floor lamps all 75% off. One very odd thing I saw was that a lot of the kids hat/scarves/gloves didn't go down to 75%--they were 65%--I have never seen Target use this percentage before--it wasn't all the hats, etc. but just the character ones--anyone ever see this?

My stores have had less of EVERYTHING this year....x-mas, toys, valentines, GB.....everything. It is very upsetting. I see things that I like that don't even get a chance to go on clearance and they're sold out!

Thanks so much for the speedy response! I am on my way to Target after work so I will take a look.

I would like to know this too. I wish I would have bought DD9 a new bike at x-mas (I liked the one at wal-mart on BF) I didn't realize she was too big for her bike and now that it is a balmy 45 degrees she took it out of the garage and her knees hit the handlebars! So now I need a bike and a ride-on for DD1.

I am pretty sure they do the bulk between holidays/seasons. I know last year I got the bulk diapers and wipes in July. By the end of July they were marked down to 30% off. I only remember this because we were camping and I had some great coupons for diapers and wipes and my hubby was mad that I left the camping trip for a bit to go to Target!

I am looking for towels too. I don't know if they go down every week or not. I just need kitchen towels but I wants to get a few packages. Right now the ones I want are 50% and I think $5 a package is still too much. I have to say that after all the good 75% deals at Target and with all the good deals I got at Steve & Barry's and KB Toys I can't stand to look at prices when they're only 30% or 50%! For example, I saw a pair of boots that I liked at Target but they were $25 at 30% and my husband said "well just get them, they're only $25" and I had to tell him that after getting tons of shoes for $5 and under that I refused to pay $25 for a pair of shoes! He thinks I am nuts..but there is a reason my family of 5 can have a new wardrobe every season!

I find 1 or 2 boxes every 3 weeks or so. I usually find them at the store I go to on Friday night after work-so I don't think time matters too much. I always find them right there in front, out in the open, never hidden behind other boxes. I was actually afraid that with the MM 15 pack being on sale this week that others might find out little secret! We'll see I guess.

Ditto here on the frozen foods. Plus all sweaters/winter wear and Converse jeans (some xhileration) 75%. The jeans were between $6 and $8 and seem to be good quality. All girls' hats, scarves and gloves were also 75%-for some reason these didn't go down when the womens' did.

This is too funny because my DD9 has also learned this. She saw a pair of purple sparkle converse on Thursday and I told her I just bought her 3 pairs of shoes last week and to put them back. She went and scanned them and said but they're only $4.xx and that's 75% off! So of course I bought them for her!

I finally found the cherry blossom market last night. Does anyone know if this needs lots of accessories? My receipt says NCF on it so Target will no longer carry this right? If I need the extras I figure I better get them now even though I won't give it to DD for months.

I was so bummed because I had my eye on a few camping things, lantern and grill, and there were a ton on Sunday and then when I went yesterday all the aisles were moved around (the bikes and camping switched spots-which is weird b/c the aisles are right next to each other so I have no clue what the point in doing that is! ) and there was nothing left! I mean nothing but a few water bottles! Even some things that were never clearanced to 30% were just gone. I was so sad! Do you think it went from 30% to 75% and then sold out in 4 days? Most of the time my store always goes 30%, 50% and then 75%, with the exception of the toys, so I am really confused with the clearance lately.

I finally made it to Target last night around 6pm. I was really disappointed-there was less than half an aisle and it was really picked over. I think maybe it went down on Wednesday instead of Thursday…I knew I should have gone to see for myself! Anyway, I did get the crammer (this is worth the $15! Very useful.) and a really nice dartboard for our game room for $20. I also found an apple MM which made up for the lack of toys. I am going to try another Target a couple towns over this afternoon to see if they have anything. I am looking for the Radio Flyer Turtle if anyone sees one anywhere in Northwest Indiana please let me know!

I cannot get to Target until 5pm after work and I am literally freaking out! My palms are sweating as I am picturing people walking away with MY TOYS! And really, there are only a couple things I would like to get--everything that I HAD to have already went down 75% and is in my basement! I seriously need help, like a support group or something, Target shoppers anonymous.

So when are the toys that are 30% and 50% likely to go lower?

I don't think there is anyone from around here but....the Homewood, Illinois Target is making a big, great, wonderful mistake! My friend is a manager there so I knew they were marked down to 75% but I couldn't get there until lunchtime (this happens to be the Target closest to work, not home) so when I went at 1pm there were 2 1/2 aisles (not as much as the other Target I had already been to) of mess-but great finds. This happens to be a Target doing the "extra 30% off of clearance clothes" so I loaded up. While I was checking out the cashier took an extra 30% off of everything, not just clothes! I 'fessed up and told her I thought that sale was just on clothes and she said "oh, no it's on all clearance" I was so excited I danced all the way to my car. Of course when I called my manager friend and told her what her employees were doing she was very upset and has probably stopped it---but at least I got away with it!!

75% in St. John, Indiana and Homewood, Illinois. Got tons of stuff, I was the second person there @ 8:08. The first lady there already had 2 cart fulls by the time I got to the toy aisle! I shopped for about an hour and only had 2 other people show up. Everything was neat and clean and everyone was friendly. The employees were even helping people to the registers! They had about 3 aisles and all endcaps of clearance toys-half of one aisle was only 30% & 50% but all the rest was 75%. Now only if the baby section would go lower than 30%!!

My 9dd just did this on January first, her grandmother took her. The only thing I would suggest is checking the American Girl website to see what is going on in the Chicago store the day you want to go. On the day my dd went they had crafts and introduced the girl of the year, Chrissa, and she got to meet the author of the Chrissa book. Also, depending on what you want to do it might be cheaper to not do the "day at" package. My dd wasn't too interested in having pics taken so her grandma let her pick out the things she did want to do (lunch, matching outfits, etc.).

At my Target they have about 20 big plastic playsets (like the Little Tykes--I think they are Step 2 or something). They have been at 30% for about a month now and I have only seen a few move. They are originally $200 or so. I have never seen big items like this included in the toy clearance-has anyone else? Here's the name of it "Little Tikes Picnic on the Patio Playhouse" originally $229.99

Did anyone's toys go 50% yet? Our toys have been 30% for about a month now and I have been stalking some pink camo floor thing.
