    I don't believe so, otherwise people would just keep coming in and adjusting down. Your best bet if you want to adjust your price is find a store with the same item in stock at the larger % off, buy the item, then return it against the receipt with the smaller %.

    Target : Company : FAQs

    Looks like clearance price matching in a no-go, but that may only be in reference to a competitor. I'd say buy the clearance item and return it with the full price receipt.

    ^^ Pretty much what they said. At least from my own experience.

    I don't think you'll ever be able to accuse this group of not being helpful! :lol 


    I'll probably hit the Eagan Target later today as I need to get one more clearance stocking holder thing and exchange a few items -- including hopefully the Ark and get one at the 75% off price. I still haven't opened it, but after watching a review last night I'm not regretting picking it up, even if it ends up being at the 50% off price. Looks pretty sweet!!

    I notice that Target is not doing the 75% off thing much anymore, most of it is 70% off but that is of little consequence. A bit weird but oh well.

    Ridgedale TRU has 2 Junkheaps, 2 Sky Shadows, 1 Warpath, 50 million Wheeljacks. No Prime voyagers, though I keep hoping every time I stop in that they'll magically be there.

    EDIT: I'm going to openly confess my new addiction: Skylanders. I got the game for X-mas so I can play with my 4yo daughter, and she loves it! Her job so far has been to swap characters on the Portal of Power (TM) for me so I can keep my lazy butt on the couch. Maybe some day she'll get to actually play ;)  I grabbed some new guys while at Ridgedale TRU, since they have the best selection I've seen anywhere.

    Hit the Eagan Target. Nabbed an Ark @ 75% off and returned the 50% off one. They have plenty left -- like 6 to 8. Tattooed BB is still available at 50% off. Their selection is not as decimated as other Targets, but nothing else notable.

    Yes, I saw that a couple of weeks ago. The ridiculous thing is they're $20-30 on Ebay. I'm tempted to try selling one on Amazon though -- maybe find a fool willing to pay >$50?


    Bomber and Spray should be here tomorrow!

    email from bbts from yesterday...

    TRANSFORMERS REISSUES - SIDESWIPE, RODIMUS PRIME
    Our shipment of the Asian reissue Transformers has arrived, although it is
    hard to tell from the packaging. Sideswipe is in stock now, priced at
    $47.99, as is Rodimus Prime, who is priced at $62.99. If these figures
    were missing from your collection, now is a great tiem to pick them up.

    They probably have identical packaging to the previous US releases.

    Yup...at least if the RK photos are accurate. They look identical, or dang close, to the commemorative TRU packaging.
