Perimeter Perusing at Target (Target Clearance Deals) - 2009


Brad

Recommended Posts

Just a depressing note on the upcoming January toy clearance. Has anyone noticed that Target has not back-stocked enough to need to use the risers in the stores? Usually they add a shelf above the regular toy shelves and stack them high and deep with extra stock. No risers this year. At least not in any of our stores. They put them in for a week or so, but they were told to pull them as they would not need them....

None in my store either.

Yes they will be open on Friday and if you get someone from overseas, ask them to transfer you over to the US Corporate office. The specialist you end up talking to can call the store immediately and advise how best to resolve any problems you may have.

 

According to Corporate, they had decided on the price adjustment policy earlier today after the ad was released to the public so not all stores had been notifed yet perhaps. Happy Thanksgiving everyone and good luck finding great deals BF!

I always ask for an American when I get someone international. And when they ask me why, I tell them that I am offended that good American jobs are being sent offshore. I almost wonder if it is somehow linked to my phone number now, because I always seem to get an American automatically now.

Rec'd a new Target book in mail today "All kinds of wonderful" and there are 4 pages of coupons. I was happy to see a 10% any Tom Tom GPS and many more. Also a $15 off $150 coupon on back. Check your mail so you can use on Friday.

I received that catalog today but got a $10 off $100 coupon on back but no coupons inside :(

We didn't get this one, but both my husband and I each got one about a month ago with coupons. The funny thing was, they were each slightly different, with coupons in a different order and some different coupons. Neither one of us has a Target cc. I know they can get your address is you use a regular cc because I have ended up on countless catalog mailing lists this way (shortly after making a cc purchase, and not giving the store any personal information, I get their catalog).

The store that I got to has the risers up.

I ran across a couple of Targets here that had them when I went out on Friday (we've got 10 Target stores in easy driving distance of us), but the only thing they had stocked up there was games, and no where near the volume usual. There may be some areas where they have a lot left in January, but I'll be surprised if they do.

Clearance is dead at my stores, except that one still has about 5 of the Tom Tom GPS that are currently 50% off ($114.xx). When do you think these will go to 75%? I want to use that 10% off Tom Tom coupon (printable on the Target website) to make the deal even better!

 

I'm happy because they shoved these with a ton of other random junk on clearance at the very back of the store on an endcap. The average shopper will probably not just happen upon them, giving me more time to snag one when they do go down!

The markdown team was off their regular work all last week prepping for BF. They were back to the regular department markdowns this morning, so we'll see a bit more I would think. They always mark down a few toys in the last 2 weeks before Christmas. I would not be surprised if the Tom Tom didn't go, though, as GPS is still a hot seller this Christmas.

 

Saw they'd markd down several Xbox, Playstation and PSP games today. All stuff that was already clearance, just marked from 30-50%. We don't have those game platforms though...

I went to check on the GPSs today (I've been stalking them too!) Guess what, guys? They were salvaged!!!!! I'm sooooo mad. There were 4 there yesterday @ 50% off. Now they are gone and the DCPI # doesn't even come up in the scanner!!:mad::mad::mad:

Can anyone tell me if the new coupon book has any toy coupons? My daughter just informed me the one thing she would like for Christmas is the FurReal friends Lulu. Of course, after the toy book expired! I know they will sometimes take expired coupons, will they take expired toy book coupons? Thanks

When my Target marked them down to 75% off I bought one and left. After talking to my husband he said I should buy another for his Dad.When I went back just a few minutes after I bought the first one they were ALL gone. There was a lady working on that aisle and I asked her about them and she said that she had moved them all to the back while she was straightening the aisle. :rolleyes: I told her I would like another if they had some. She went to the back and on her way back out I heard at least three different voices saying "Hey! I wanted that!" If I hadnt have asked I would have missed out! Wonder if some of your employees grabbed them.:confused:

There are some "new" toy coupons on Target's website, but none are for FurReal. Some Targets take expired manufacturer coupons, but I don't think they take their own expired coupons.

Can we use two coupons like that? I was debating on getting the iPod Touch using the 10% off coupon and the $15 GC coupon but wasn't sure if it would work.

There are none for Lulu, as the PP said, but you can print all of the coupons that are in that new catalog at Target.com (scroll down to "Grocery Coupons" at the bottom and you'll find the toy coupons there, too).

The Tom Tom GPS was 75% off today. I used the printable 10% off coupon and my Target Visa for another 5% off and got it for $52.99 with tax. Christmas shopping for DH is done! There were still 4 left at the Ward Parkway Target if any KC people are interested. (I saw 4 at the Mission Target yesterday).

That's what I might have thought about the GPS except they were coming up "item not found" in the scanner. I would think that if employees had grabbed them earlier in the day, the item would still be in the system...

They do salvage at some stores while taking them all the way to 75% at others, so you are right. INF means it was salvaged at your store. Bummer! They might have sold or salvaged the last batch at our store, but I noticed yet another Tom Tom model was on clearance. Not to 75% yet, so keep looking.
