afrey66 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 They can look up the last selling price on the cash register as well. However, some items are not in either place. Older items are completely removed from the system. The thing they are supposed to do is salvage the item, but most would rather increase their sales rather than let it go, and make a customer happy to boot. So they make it up. The ones who ask what the price is might come closer to laziness, but those are the ones most likely to be useful to us, so I certainly can't complain about that!There is still a system they can look in and it will tell them the prices even if they are not in the system; even if it is something that should be salvaged. I've experienced this at just about every Target in Tucson. I was in Casa Grande (about an hour and a half north of Tucson) almost 2 weeks ago and they did the same thing. There was a Kurv that came up INF. I took it to CS and they had to look in this other system to find the last selling price. The manager made the comment that they should've been salvaged but she would look up the price. They were training the new person at CS how to do it. Maybe you and I are talking about the same thing.

cokemeyer Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 All I really found today was 50% off toothpaste and some music books for kids that were 75%. I had to write about a funny find though...they had durex condoms on an endcap with a AS IS sticker on them. I did not check them out but I had to laugh. Not sure who will buy them! I am sure it was a box open or something but it was still worth a chuckle!That is TOO funny!!! Maybe they are hoping if customers buy them, in 9 months or so they'll increase their sales in the baby department, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snausages Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 THere have never been many. I did find, however, this software that you can buy to do your own DVD conversions. I have not used it and am not endorsing it, but it is out there: http://www.pocketdvdwizard.com/nick.htmlI haven't used that program for NICK, but I do use it for converting to play videos on my PDA. It works flawlessly and comes out great. So in general the program works well, don't know if you'd be happy with using it for NICK. If you are interested, you should contact them directly with your questions :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supershopper1 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 After Valentines day I purchased Kodak Gallery gift cards for 75% off....but the cashier did not activate them, and when I went to customer service they said the cashier should not have marked them down and they "couldnt" activate them for me, and told me I should return them. I said no, I'd contact Kodak to have them activated. Well Kodak told me they couldnt activate them and to take them back to Target.....Anyone else have this problem?? Any suggestions on what to do? I really dont want to have to return them because I got a great deal on them....My store was opposite. After Christmas snapfish at 75% & V Day Kodak cards the LOD told the cashier to give them to me for 90% off & she took them to another register to make sure they were activated. Maybe I should check mine,the reciept does say activated. The LOD told the cashier they are not a store giftcard that they have to enter a dollar amt. to. These are from Kodak the same as if you purchased any other clearance product. The only problem you will have is that they were NOT on clearance. They had to overide the price for mine. Good luck! Try another store before calling corp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennakay Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I very seldom get to go to target but I had business near by so I met my mother for a target trip and we made some great finds. They had the tinkerbell mix pix (the one that plays videos) for 1/2 off so I picked up 2. They had the fusion for 9.98 reg. 39.98. Dog collars and leashes .48 cents and up, outfits for animal dresses, coats, toys and jammies at about 75% off. The absolute best buy was frontline plus 3 pack for 10.98. I saw clearance tags all over the store but a lot was only 15% off. They had a few of those rugs in a box that everyone is been speaking of but I wasn't interested and also saw the party pack dishes for 8.xx Bought a couple of ps 2 games for 3.98. They had some furniture marked as well but again only 15% to 30% off, I would have loved to get this tv stand but not wanting to pay 70 for it yet. I don't remember if my state is in my profile but these were found in alabama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
