fluffkin79 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 So, Peanut butter is right up there with cold medicine now? Those poor Duggars - they must have to go shopping every day! Or can large families just claim to be "not normal" so they can buy more? Maybe the cashier never saw a teenager eat? I made PB cookies this week. The recipe uses 1 jar. My family ate them in 3 days. And PB sandwiches, PB on toast, PB with apples... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1angelnhvn Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I shop at the Vogel Target and haven't been very happy w/them either. I tried using a Target coupon and a manuf coupon on an item back in Aug. The cashier asked another cashier if they were allowed to take both and she said no. I had been reading on here about ppl being able to do that so I said I thought Target did. She said no. This was a cashier that is always there in the mornings w/short, kind of big hair and a tan. I think I know who everyone is talking about. She is usually nice but never shuts her mouth, lol. The other day I was buying DD a shirt that was suppose to be 75% off. All the signs said 75% off but this shirt and the others like it had only 30% off tags. I even mentioned it to a couple of other ppl that had the same shirt in their cart. Well I go to checkout and I handed the shirt to her and said the sign says 75% off. She calls over the head cashier, a man and he says to type in 45% off after she scans it. I didn't say anything but later realized that wasn't right. It was suppose to be 75% off the original price not off of the 30% price. So I over paid around $1. I can tell they have new ppl working the registers lately and I'm tired of all the screwups and miscommunications as far as clearance signs and the way items are marked and such. I dread walking into the Vogel Target now. Can't believe they would limit how much merchandise you could buy, absolutely insane. And the bad thing is when the signs are wrong, they immediately assume YOU changed them and are trying to rip them off! I can't tell you how many times that has happened to me! I've gotten to the point where I scan everything I really want before I go up there as most of the time I'm not ready to argue with them over most of what I'm buying. I like to get the deals but don't like being treated like a criminal because their signs are wrong-and I'm not talking about someone moving one or two items, I'm talking about an entire display!.......

kkball Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 HELP.........I have been with this website for several years. I reply occassionally, but honestly not that often. However, i read the responses frequently. I love this TARGET forum, but it is difficult to read and find the deals, unless you read each response. Have you noticed that there is over 2400 replies? How can we suggest to GottaDeal, to divide Target up into individual forums? (.i.e. Food, Toys, Housewares, etc) Also, a week or so ago, i had asked someone how to put my city and state on my login? I don't know how to do it, still......And yet, I can't find the response, it was lost in the 2400 responses. Can someone send me personal instructions? PLEASE! FYI, I am in Shawnee, Kansas.

Target's clearance signs always say 'up to (enter percentage off here).' It is in small lettering and if you don't sit and read the whole sign you'd miss it. Somebody on here pointed that out once. So anyways, it stinks but that's how they suck you in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stowasser Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 A little hint I learned on here. Target's clearance signs always say 'up to (enter percentage off here).' It is in small lettering and if you don't sit and read the whole sign you'd miss it. Somebody on here pointed that out once. So anyways, it stinks but that's how they suck you in.Also, people pick up items from one clearance rack and just put it away somewhere else. Personally, our Target is one of the better ones, they are usually right on when marking down items and it has a sticker. Once in a blue moon, you will scan something and its bumped to the next % off. If you scan something and its 30% but on the 75% off rack, most likely it was misplaced by a customer. I find things misplaced all over the store, I know I am guilty of that, where I decide not to buy something and instead of going all the way back to that area, I leave it on an endcap (don't do it often but I have done it). I do try not to leave it on a clearance one if it isn't clearanced though. BTW on PB episode, Walmart sells Jif in two packs, my husband eats 2 Pb&J's everyday, so yes we go through alot of PB. They didn't want to sell you because of the deal you were getting, I am not sure why some employees think that the company is losing money, they are reimbursed for the coupon plus I think some extra cents, add that by a half million people and they are making money. I ran into that problem with cold medicine, I had some coupons that were expiring so I wanted to buy three (this was at Walmart) and they couldn't sell me the three??? The cashier just did two and than anothe order for the third but I was shocked, than she explained why. Wow, was I ever out of touch, would never have guessed it.

Yeah it probably does say up to on the signs. Guess I'm just so use to getting the best clearance price listed at Target. Everything else was 75% off though on everything in the clothes so I just thought they forgot to scan those shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, no I didn't move 80 boxes of crackers just to get them 1/2 off! I also noticed they have the irish spring body wash that I got after christmas in the bulk section for 15% off now! I got them for 75% off right after Christmas......thought I hit the jackpot but no such luck there......think they were 4.xx at our store and I paid 1.xx.......

They are usually sold out of things I want/need. funny, I go every morning before work to the Brentwood Promenade store and also see another lady always doing the permiter game with me...sometimes, we try and outwalk each other to make sure the other person isn't getting the deal before we can scope it out...I am there every morning between 8:00-8:30 or between 12:00-1:00... Today I got two of the flannel sheet sets by DYR (purple with penguins and scarfs) for $4.98, found them in twin and full, a Transformers flannel throw for $4.98, a Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Bathroom Cleaner for $8.xx after Q, and the Schick Quattro Razor for Women gift set for $1.58 after Q. Also, if you check their purse and accessories end caps, lots of clearance on the costume fashion jewelry, scarfs, hats, gloves, and purses..saw some really cute purses for $3.xx and got some Angora Wool socks for $.74, and some necklaces for $2.28 (orig. $7.89), Lots of clothes clearance as well. They did have the camping gear, sleeping bags, tents and such on clearance as well as the blue golf sets and golf balls, but no Hello Kitty. Dyson still holding at $339.00 and there is one sewing machine left on clearance for $36.xx, but has not case, booklet, or accessories..also looked like it was missing the bobbin holder..so I passed on that one. Nice clearance on candles and candle holders (from about $1.24-$3.xx) and were cute bird cage candle holder looking thingys. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanadeal Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Okay, I really believe the markdown team at my Target has been abducted by aliens.

Cosmetic sets and such are still 15%, those darn flannel sheets are still $13.98, and bulk is still FULL price. Do I win a prize for officially having the worst clearance in the country?

afrey66 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I agree...I like hearing about all of the deals. Of course, this just gives me more reason to go to Target. :) At the Targets in Tucson, the wire racks are on sale this week. These are great for putting all of our finds from Target. :) I'm buying two more for my garage. They are a pain to put together (definitely easier with two people) but they hold a lot and are very sturdy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
