Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Woburn MA Target had nothing on clearance.
Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Went to three Targets yesterday, no MF on clearance - all full price. I even asked the associate to scan with their PDA, confirmed not on clearance. So this is very store dependent. I did see a few alien sets with good clearance prices at the Chicago Petersen store. The associate could check stock in other stores, but not tell if there were clearance prices. So it looks like this is a drive-and-hope sale :(
Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Scored multiple Falcons at half off and found one last one for 70% off. Also got multiple frigates, infiltrators, and destiny's bounty at 50%. And to top it off, finally found Hasbro's captain rex, cody, and wolffe which I have been looking forever.

Good work! :)
And I thought I had a deal when I found a Falcon for $50 at Walmart.
Would love to find the Dino HQ. What a strange clearance item.

He was nice and polite, i think the Target employee was not understanding what he wanted...big surprise that a store employee is not helpful!dho7622u wrote:
He seemed nice enough.... The AC stuff was, truly, all over the store. I saw some in electronics, some in domestics. I think they were 50%. The little set was at 50% (car - thingy that I picked up, then thought better about).
I did see 2 Motherships in the general toy clearance area.
Was hoping to get a last ditch HP set, the small pink brick box or a mini fig or two. nope.
This is one of the best Targets for Lego, I have found. And with the Lego Store there, It makes it a great day overall.

Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Walked into my local Target in Florida and checked out the LEGO aisle (I do this at least 4 times a week for my son). Usually there are the usual City, Star Wars, and other items on the shelves…most of which he has. I noticed a single clearance tag on the Lego Forest Police Station. It said Was $79.99 and Now is $23.98. I was in shock and could not believe my luck. I have seen that same box on the shelf for weeks and usually the clearance price slowly decreases in about $5.00 increments. There was only one, so you bet I snatched it up. Can't wait to build it with my boy.

Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Scored an SW Frigate, 2x Sith Infiltrator (mostly for parts), a Lighthouse, and an Ewok attack all at 50% off yesterday at 1 socal Target. They had a bunch of Infiltrators, Ewoks, and Bounty hunter ships left. I missed out on a Destiny's Bounty at another Target, but picked up some Star Wars toys and a Transformers helmet for 70% off.

Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Congrats for those who scored crazy deals. My Targets are absolutely horrible with clearance this year. Whatever's listed here that's clearanced is still full price/already gone.

Found LEGO 3366 Satellite Launch Pad for $12, but that's it. With Target's new price of $24 instead of $20 MSRP, they claim it to be 50% off. I still bit for that SUV/van.
Re: Target - Summer Clearance
I missed a bunch because the manager at the local Target lied to my face. They had already marked down to 30 % off and when i asked the manager if they were going to mark them down a second time he said no. He said that was as low as they were going to go. This was on wednesday. I came back today and there was absolutely nothing left. I asked the lady stocking toys and she said they had moved them to a clearance aisle on thursday and marked them down to 50 and 70 % off. All of it had sold. So now i am going to contact a district manager. I don't appreciate being bold face lied to by some kid manager.

Re: Target - Summer Clearance
So jelly of those getting 50% off on Falcons! D:
Re: Target - Summer Clearance
On Thursday, I got 1 POC Queen Anne's Revenge, 1 POC Mill, 1 SW Turbo Tank, 1 HP Hogwart's Castle and 1 SW Jedi T-6 Shuttle at 50% all at one Target. By far my biggest score in one trip for Lego's. Most other Targets have been wiped. For some reason, this particular Target still hasn't clearanced the POC Black Pearl and SW Millennium Falcon. Keeping my eye on those. Still hoping to pick up a Ninjago Destiny's Bounty.
Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Fairfield NJ Target didn't have anything yesterday, except for 2 AC sets for $11[tripod invader]. Left them both.

Re: Target - Summer Clearance
Though Target is more organized than Walmart, it doesn't mean they're totally organized. It is definitely a combination of research (online and in-store), watching, waiting, and perhaps most of all, luck. I was told by several employees and a manager that price changes were done in Toys on Monday, and that is simply not the case at my nearest Target. I found this out myself by watching the weeks go by rather than asking employees. Clearance deals are sorta like death (bear with me here, it's a loose analogy): you know it's coming, you just don't know when.jal4u2c wrote:I missed a bunch because the manager at the local Target lied to my face.

Re: Target - Summer Clearance
I have never seen a NorCal Target go to 70% off on legos. They Goodwill them before that happens if they dont sell at 50. Two different store managers have told me and I saw it happen to 20+ Portal of Atlantis with my own eyes after they sat for six weeks. The MFs all went at 30 off in my area targets, and I have no interest in it anyway, like most SW sets it has the most boring parts imaginable. I missed the markdown to 50% (fake 50%, since they do that TRU markup-then-clearance thing now) but that cleaned out the rest of the SW stuff, which I also didnt want even at 50%, except a podracer, but I'll eventually get one from WM I bet. I tend to hold out for WM and KM unless its a set I absolutely want.
