dtwdmaty Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 is it possible for the toys that were part of the 30-50-75 mark down to go 90% off? I have hidden a fisher-price imaginext castle thing and i checked on it today..still well hidden, but I'm wondering if i should just go ahead and buy it at $9.98 ( which is 75% off)...but I'd really like to get it for less than $5!I'd buy it. They tend to salvage toys instead of marking them down more. I'd hate to wait only to find it's been dropped from the system. IMO, paying the extra $5 would be worth not fighting them over an "item not found"..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only merchandise that goes to 90% is holiday stuff. There are a handful of stores across the country where we have heard reports of them taking merchandise below 75%, but it is not standard practice. And once it goes salvage, a lot of stores won't sell it to you at all. That happens all the time. I'd buy it before that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokemeyer Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I dragged all 3 kids out to Target today in the snow, expecting just to pick up some pharmacy items and lo and behold walked out with more toys. :) Thanks to you all, I knew to re-check the bare clearance toy aisle for returns and there they were. :) I got a Fisher Price Classics boxed pull along dog toy for $6.xx, 75% off and one of those ride on Spiderman scoot toys for $4.xx, 75% off. I also found Eddie Bauer boxed items I'm using for Easter basket items for the men in the family - UV index detectors for $4.xx, 75% off...

tntsmomie Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Super happy with my stop at Target tonight!! Snow boots for DS $3.74 Mittens for a school project $.74 The boots I've been watching for DD for over a month $4.98 (they were sitting at $13.98 for over a month) Also, for those in VA, I overheard a clerk telling a family that they would be marking down carseats/play yards/strollers/etc down even more very soon. So worth keeping your eye out if you need one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixrayu05 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I bought 2 of the Black & Decker Vacumes for $12.48 each last night and found 1 pack of twin flannel sheets (girls striped) for $4.98 with the other kids sheet - not on an endcap/and no red sticker - I just scanned because they were flannel! I also put together the Eezy Peezy Ball Pit / Slide Play Set and my DD LOVES it - she is 2 and it is really for my 7 month old son. It was a pain to put together but it is really neat for $24 reg. $99!!!!Do you have the number for the vaccume? Are they pretty nice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wortmanfamily Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I got lucky tonight - I took my Littlest Pet Shop Around the World set in that I had bought b4 Christmas for $25.00 and asked the man at customer service if he would see what they were ringing up for now - he said $6.??...so I asked if there was any way I could return or get a price adjust and rebuy back? He said yes! He said typically they don't do that - that it would have to go back on the floor and then I'd have to find it and rebuy that way. (I knew that - but thought it wouldn't hurt to try) BUT since he was the manager he would do it this time! I was kind of surprised esp. since there were about 2 other employees back there with him!?!??! SO lesson learned....it never hurts to TRY!

snausages Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I just got this awesome sewing machine for 75% off! Reg $150, paid $37. Now I just have to learn how to sew! :) http://www.target.com/Shark-80-Stitch-Sewing-Machine-Quilting/dp/B00080M8PC/sr=1-14/qid=1200680984/ref=sr_1_14/602-2857071-0974269?ie=UTF8&index=target&rh=k%3Asewing%20machine&page=1 WOW you got a quite the steal! I bought it a couple weeks ago at 50% off for $74.98. Tried to call a few stores in NY/NJ area and it was still either $74.98 or even higher at $104.98!!! Smjrm, would you let me know it works out for you? Was wondering if it's any good. I thought I got a steal at 50% off, now I feel a wee bit cheated.. If anyone sees it in my area for 75% off, please please please let me know? Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a couple of those sets, and I asked at one store, and they lady said no and explained why. She's sweet and knows I shop there a lot. I asked because an older gentleman that works CS at that store has done it for me before. No dice. So, I took them (and a few other marked down toys) back to my other most regular store and simply waited. I went in the evening and sat with a coffee in Food Avenue to watch for them to come get the go backs. I knew they would. That store never lets stuff sit for more than an hour in CS. Sure enough, after about 30 minutes a girl came to get them. I headed her off at the pass and she was more than happy to allow me to unload the cart she was going to have to take to the sales floor!

cacsmama Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I had a great day at Target... I found the following: 75% Lego fire rescue boat set $8.74 Wooden Thomas Train Set piece $7.48 Cars Carrying Case $3.32 2 X-mas Hot Wheels $1.24 3 pairs of toddler tennis shoes $3.74 each 1 pair toddler snowboots $3.74 3 pairs of toddler slippers $1.98 Isotoner slippers $3.24 Twin Fleece Blanket $4.98 And my best deal was the Fisher Price Easy Link system for $1.18 ($6.18 - $5.00 coupon) I figured for a $1 basically it couldn't be that bad.

You better go ahead and buy it. If it goes salvage they may not let you purchase it. Oh have to share. I found one of the Black and Decker irons today for $6.24. I noticed that the box was kind of opened and bent. I opened it up and noticed that the iron was dusty and had drops of water in it. I figured it was a return. I didn't purchase it because thought it may have been damaged. Once I got home I thought that I never looked to see if it was the same iron that was on the box. Very odd. I saw several SpiderMan flannel sheets for 75%. I actually walked out of the store today without buying a thing. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!!!After reading about the sewing machine I had to go out to stalk it myself after work... At my 3rd Target I lucked out and found it! It was still marked at $104.98 but scanned for $37.48. I immediately had to call my sister to brag about my find, and a guy walking by heard me talking about it and picked up the only other one left for his fiance. I don't know how to sew yet, but this will make me start! It basically gives me yet one more thing to spend money on when I walk into JoAnn or Hobby Lobby. For some reason I'm convinced that deep down I'm a very crafty person, I just have to buy the right supplies to bring it out of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got one last yr for $5 like new at a garage sale & still haven't put it into my cabinet!! Thanks for the reminder. Maybe I should do that today & finally throw out the old one. I am tempted to look for this one on sale instead!!! PLEASE stop me. I've bought waaaay too much already. Maybe I should just flip a coin, stay home heads, go to Target tails. LOL.

They also had the bowling arcade, indoor basketball hoop game and a table top pool table for 75% off.I almost picked that one up but the but the box was too big to scan and ours has the old scanners so I could not punch in the numbers. I figures it was still 30% so I passed. Hmmm. my husband got a ping pong table for CHristmas and just ordered a dart board. This might be a good addition to the game room. Guess I should go back and pray it is still there. Do you happen to have the Number so I can look it up? (The all in one game table) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan34 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I've been shopping Target toy clearance for many years and rarely have I've seen them go any lower then 75%. As the other op stated it will be salvage...however, I have seen - I believe it was two years ago a few toys that they red tagged at 85%. I defintely would not wait on getting the item because alot of the stores will salvage there items and send them out to liquidators. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
