 Posts: 39 | Mixed Signals from Target on Thursday, March, 03, 2011 11:56 PM
I've been visiting the four Targets along my commute route since January, waiting for new product or clearance. While I've seen some movement in product, we are not seeing a restocking here (Sacramento). In fact, when I approached two employees stocking toys at two of the stores, I was told the following: "We don't intend on seeing a restocking of Tron toys." In fact, both stores remarked that the current price reductions were actually non-posted clearance prices.
I've been trying to determine the truth of these statements by reading all the great posts on this site. Based on what I read here, would it be reasonable to determine that these employees are merely BS-ing me? True, I haven't seen new product here in quite some time, and everyone's backstocks are empty. But we've also seen the new round of 2-packs coming out in other markets, although not anywhere near us.
I'm a newbie here, so I want to make sure I'm not giving up the fight before my Targets become awash in Series 3 sets. Any insights would be appreciated.

Well Targets "sale" ended and all items here are back up to full price: Core figures $9.99, Vehicles $17.99, Deluxe $14.99. The only exception is the Ultimate Sam and Clu at $19.99.
Knowing Target, clearance items are marked down 40%-60% percent with red clearance price stickers and with each passing week they aren't sold the prices are further reduced until the price ends in something like .94 cents which usually indicates the final clearance price reduction. I'd say they are trying to squeeze whatever they can at full price for the next few weeks and then all will be marked down drastically with red clearance tags. Be patient. It will happen.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Target has already started clearancing the Recognizer playset. I got one in Atlanta GA for $5 and another person here posted they found one for $5 as well.
The big sale is over but isn't the sale for 2" figures still going on? I hope so, I haven't finished getting my S1 stuff.

Maybe it has to do with the particular store/area, depending on how sales are going?
What do you want? I'm busy.
Program, please!
Chaos.... good news. |

I'm seeing the same thing out here in Florida. I have that other thread where I happened to come across quite a few K. Flynn discs at Target one time. Anyway, I was there last weekend and not only do they not have K. Flynn discs anymore, they have NO discs anymore and they removed the endcap as well.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Cool! You're in Sacramento too? I bet we've visited some of the same Targets
I usually check the one on Madison, though it's one of the smaller ones. But work takes me near the one off of...Truxel I think?

Local Target has the 4 exclusive mini fig packs restocked and marked down to $3 something. TRU had more 3 man light jets and so did a local k-Mart. Hmmmmm...where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Around Chicago - endcaps removed, stuff back to regular price. Some Rinzler and Sam Deluxe Discs left - no Kevin Flynn. Some Series 1 Target exclusives left.
Awaiting Series 3 maybe around home video release?

Did you see Sac State showed Legacy on Thursday? I'll be that was a trip - probably lots of Tron-ees there! Might have to get a release party together once the DVD is released!!
Endcaps here are gone as well. The strange thing is that several items here appear to still be on sale, even though they no longer have it displayed. Try scanning a couple of things when you all get the chance.
I don't buy the video release sale thing though - imagine how low everyone's stocks will be when April 5th rolls around. I'll bet they'll start clearancing things soon - it's Target's MO to clearance in the 3rd-4th month the toys are released. However, it's strange that some stores are getting those cool 2-packs, when some stores clearly haven't gotten new product in awhile.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

And yet... they're still displaying Iron Man II series 1 base figures at full price. Go figure. Or rather, go action figure. Ha. Pun.

It's the same in Canada. The Toys R Us near me has a full section of Iron Man stuff that hasn't been marked down or gone on sale for ages.

TRU here in town finally marked down the deluxe armor figures (the ones with all the weird snap-on accessories and absurd colorings) from $15 to $12. Wooooo.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill
