Be prepared though. They have made a huge mess out of this Rewards program and many people are not receiving their certificates. I started purchasing back in October and finally got my first certificates this past weekend, but only after several calls to Customer Service. Now I have 3 weeks to use them. Yet another reason why I detest TRU.

I have been staring at 2 full aisles of nothing but 30% clearance for more than a week. Release the hounds already!

Based on my receipt from last January, it started on Thursday, January 10. I read that it usually starts the second Thursday of the month, which would be tomorrow. I was at Target this morning and there were no further markdowns. Going to be there early tomorrow though.

I think ours was the same way. Right to 75% off, regardless of whether they were 30% or 50% the day before.

My receipts from past toy sales show Thursday, January 10, 2008 and Wednesday, July 30, 2008.

One local Kmart was 75% off today. I bought some gift bags for $0.03 each! They were lunch sack type bags, and green. But not a Christmas green, so I plan to use them throughout the year. Also got 50 sheet packages of white tissue paper for $0.49 each.

I meant 50% of the coach bags I see people carrying are fakes. You will not find a fake at Dillards or the Coach outlet. Sorry I was not clear.

Coach is all I carry nowadays. And it is only because I have been known to find insane deals on them. We have a Coach outlet about an hour away, and they are always running 40% off deals. But I find myself wondering why I bother, since 50% of the bags I see are fakes. It is very discouraging. And I cannot figure out if the people don't know, or just don't care that they are carrying fakes. Makes me wonder if they think mine are fakes too!

I called the store last night and they said the sale runs through Saturday. You may check your store, I don't want anyone to miss out! I am going tonight.

They had a 40% off code 2 christmas's ago. I guess I saved too much money, because I have not seen another one since! Either way, I am happy with 25% off. Thanks!

Toys R Us had a Buy 2 Get 1 Free Sale on Legos several weeks ago. I am going to guess it has been less than 2 months.

I searched the DPCI and was so excited when it showed the correct price and gave me an aisle number. Only to find out that the aisle was full of lunch boxes. Found an associate and they said they do not carry them in the stores. Disappointed as usual.

I went yesterday and the pickings were slim on Coach. Only 2 bags were 50% off and they were both white and dirty on the bottom. No wonder they were still there. I have not gotten into Coach shoes, yet. I have seen the same problem with the employees, they have no problem shopping along side of you and bragging about their additional employee discount. Discreet much?

They seem to happen every 4 months or so. Usually start on a Wednesday and run through the weekend.

I mean, I have nothing against them shopping for bargains too..but aren't they supposed to do it on breaks and before or after work?? Hubby ran into this problem when he hit the sale on Wednesday morning. He was there when the doors opened, yet one employee already had a cart full of stuff headed to the checkout. He was ticked! I can't believe the employees are able to hand pick what they want, then we get leftovers. I guess I would want that priviledge if I worked there, but it is different when you are the customer. Double standard, I know, but she had the only clearanced Lego Star Wars Set!

Sold out at all stores within 100 miles of me.

Dang it! Now I have to go to Target for the third time in 36 hours!

I sent the hubby to the Coach counter yesterday morning. Best they had was 25% off original plus the 40% off. Not great, but I will take it!

No major toy markdown in Springfield, MO. Hubby is stalking a girl with a markdown gun. Here is what he found so far: Little Einsteins Egypt Adventure: $3 Lego Spongebob Boating School: $12

I am also watching a Graco Travel System. Was still 30% on Saturday.

Why are they so secretive? That is obnoxious.

Baby stuff disappears at my local store usually at 15%, I hardly ever see anything left at 30%. Which is unfortunate since I have a 5 month old!

Staples Electric Pencil Sharpener, Free After Easy Rebate, $14.99 Regularly! Page 4 I think.

Hubby hit Target at lunch time. Not only were the toys not marked down 75%, most of the stuff I was watching at 30% was gone. They never cease to disappoint.
