The Target Clearance Thread

[Monsta Mack]

This is why we also came up with the plan to print your own barcodes. Hence you can check without having to harass the register monkey, or have to argue the price with them

All the people at my Target are friendly with me and I have no problems getting them to check prices. Whatever happened to customer courtesy?

[ashram]

I asked a Target employee to scan Unlimited Saga (behind the glass), since it still showed it at $50. He said he was sure it was still $50, apparently it had been recently tagged. It's hard to believe they still have it at that price...
This is a technique used by lazy employees to piss you off. Provided it isn't in the clearance bin next week, ask them to take it down for you to buy, after they scan it and ask for the money if the total they ask for is 50 bucks just tell em you dont want it. They cant really do anything to you about that.

i had the same problem just last night. i asked her to scan it anyways and it didn't show up in the system and she said she can't sell it. i asked to speak to a manager, and he came and scannned it with a hand held scanner and it showed up as $7.48.

[pete5883]

I scanned the Zelda bonus disc at Toys R Us last week, and it came up to a ridiculous amount of like $59.99. It reminds me of the time I saw the SJRF/Sega GT 2002 Xbox bonus disc on sale separately at Best Buy for $99.99. I really doubt the store expects to sell too many of them.


A friend of mine wasn't paying much attention at the register and ended up paying $40 at Best Buy for that Gamecube demo disc with Viewtiful Joe, Splinter Cell, etc. :shock:

[terribledeli]

This week it was Panzer Dragoon Orta for $14.98 and last year's WWE wrestling game on gamecube for $9.98.

[pachi]

RE: Code verinica $4.38
Virtua Fighter 4 - $4.38
The cashier just asked how much they were since they scaneed $0.00.
good thing i asked the nice guy at the games department.

[evilwrath666]

Bought Enclave for $3.24 at the Huntington Beach, CA Target

[JibbaJabba]

does anyone know if castlevania: aria of sorrow (GBA) is still $14.98 or have they dropped it once again?

[Monsta Mack]

Only clearance games I saw:
Wolverine's revenge for GBA, $14
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter for GC, $15 and TONS of copies. Will probably go to $7.50 soon.

Not total clearance games but good deals:
Dynasty Warriors 4 (XBox) $29.99
ESPN Football (XBox) $29.99
ESPH Nhl Hockey (PS2) $29.99

Meriden, CT Target.

[Freshwillis]

does anyone know if castlevania: aria of sorrow (GBA) is still $14.98 or have they dropped it once again?

I didn't know they had that price. I'm going to have to check that out.

[DerangedHermit]

Has anybody found any awesome deals at any of these Targets?

South Setauket, NY
Bay Shore, NY
Riverhead, NY
Commack, NY (by Crooked Hill Rd. and Commack Rd.)
Commack, NY (on Vets Hwy. by Jericho Tpke.)

[GSJaia]

I do not think my Target (Hackensack, NJ) has a clearance section for games. I will have to check it out next time I pass it.

[bowsernieb]

I'm in Overland Park, KS...anybody from anywhere around there know of a Target with a clearance section? Believe me...I've looked...

[thabizzle]

snagged Maximo for $2.24. I have it already; bought it for my nephews.

[TiKi2]

Red strip or regular maximo??

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I'm in Overland Park, KS...anybody from anywhere around there know of a Target with a clearance section? Believe me...I've looked...

I'm pretty sure the Target at 119th and Blackbob has a clearance section, but I haven't been in for months.

[evilmax17]

I got Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus (Xbox) for $9.99!

[bowsernieb]

I'm in Overland Park, KS...anybody from anywhere around there know of a Target with a clearance section? Believe me...I've looked...

I'm pretty sure the Target at 119th and Blackbob has a clearance section, but I haven't been in for months.

I'll have to stop in there. Is that the one right next to AMC Studio 30? I'm out there all the time for screenings so that would be perfect.

[thabizzle]

it was the red striped one. Don't care bout stripes.

[hwong3]

Got Alians v. Predator: Extinction for PS2 for $20.98 at the Vernon Hills, IL Target.

[drfrielgood]

Brighton, MI had WWE Wrestlemania X-8 for $9.98, 2 copies left. They also had a single copy of Sonic Mega Collection marked $20.98, rang up for $14.98.

Yeah, that's the one. The clearance area should be in an isle to the left of the demo units as seen from the doors.

[drfrielgood]

stopped at the Wixom, MI Target tonight
All they really had in the way of clearance was an Action Replay for X-Box for $7.48. I was hoping they'd have a Gamecube one, but no luck.

[Querjek]

I got PSO: Online Ep. 1+2 (GCN) and Panzer Dragoon Orta for $14.98 each at the Lancaster, Ohio Target. I saw some other games, but didn't have enough time to get price checks.

[Drakken]

That PSO deal is VERY nice. Too bad my Target doesn't seem to have any good deals...

[Engineer_J]

At my Target I saw X-Box State of Emergency and Mace Griffen 9.98

[bmulligan]

drfrielgood-

As of yesterday morning, Brighton Michigan Target has 2 Action Replays for Gamecube for 14.98

[pfunkpearl]

Anyone find any decent deals in the Dallas TX area Targets? I never can seem to find any good deals here!

[LiquidKil]

You guys really won't find any good deals till after christmas. After that, all of january and some of feburary is all the greatest clearances of the year.

[drfrielgood]

hey bmulligan

Did you scan the Gamecube Action Replays?

[bmulligan]

drfielgood-

Yeah, I scanned the GC Action Replays. They were 14.08

But there was only one left as of yesterday afternoon(Sunday).

[simpsonps121]

in Columbia MD they have removed the clearance section so they could stock more items. Wolverine was still in the games case, but it had a clearance sticker on it. Rats. Better when they were hidden. :-)
Take Care,
Matthew

[baronofhell]

I was just in a Target in Vancouver, WA and they have the Sony PS ONE screens on clearance for $64.50. I'm almost tempted to get one even though I have one already :)

[RonnieWrecked]

Simpson's Hit & Run for the Xbox - $37.99
Tony Hawk's Underground for the Xbox - $37.99

[video_gamer324]

Simpson's Hit & Run for the Xbox - $37.99
Tony Hawk's Underground for the Xbox - $37.99

Those aren't really clearance items. They're both part of Target's sale this week, and they're printed right on the front page of this week's ad.

[Draknight]

clearance are usually the ones with the red stickers on them.

[drfrielgood]

Most of the Targets around me are just about out of clearance games.

[captainfrizo]

Most of the Targets around me are just about out of clearance games.

Same here.

[donssword]

:arrow: Please remember that your local Target *may not* mark clearance items with a sticker, and some do not even remove them from the glass case.

The best strategy for obtaining clearanced Target games in your area is to use the "UPC symbol trick" as documented previously in this thread.

[The Take Out Bandit]

Aliens Vs. Predator PS2 $14.98

[craven_fiend]

Kokomo, IN target has SSX Tricky for GameCube for 9.99

[Drakken]

Hamilton, NJ

Some temporary clearances:

F-Zero GX (GC) - 34.98
Simpsons Hit & Run (PS2) - 34.98
Tony Hawk's Underground (Xbox) - 37.??

When I scanned the UPC code for PSO Ep. 1 & 2 (GC), it came up as 14.98! Unfortunately, they don't have any in stock....

[donssword]

Thanks for the update Drakken, and thanks for the location listing so people actually know the status in your area.

[Dwapook]

Go to page 1 of this thread, SlippyToad.
Alright.. Thanks. There's no self-scanners at the local target though..

[porieux]

Hamilton, NJ

Some temporary clearances:

F-Zero GX (GC) - 34.98


This price came up at the Hayward, CA Target when I scanned it there also. Price was still marked $49.99.

[SunnyRT]

I just got back from Target and found a great deal. Target (at least in the Ft. Lauderdale, FL area) is having a great sale on certain XBox Platinum Hits and a few other Gamecube games. Instead of the regular $19.99 sticker price, they are reduced to $14 BUT only until this Saturday Dec 20, 2003. Some games include:

XBox - Spiderman
XBox - Conflict Desert Storm
XBox - Ghost Recon
Gamecube - Luigi's Mansion

But there's more. When I went, both Spiderman and Conflict Desert Storm were sold out, so I asked for a rain check on each. The rain check ticket at Target reads as follows:

#################################
We apologize for being out-of-stock on the item you were looking for. Here are some options for you to consider.

PRICE RAIN CHECK

Use this to receive the advertised sales price at any Target store until 01/31/04

ITEM Description blah blah blah $14.00
Reg. $19.99 @ 30% off

CHOOSE A SUBSTITUTE

Choose a substitute and receive the same percentage off (listed above) on a regular-priced item within the same product category (i.e. TV for TV, doll for doll, shirt for shirt).
###################################

So that means you can go to Target, and until Saturday, pick any of the games listed for $14. If you don't want any of those games, find one that is sold out and ask for a rain check. Then, just use your rain check ticket to get 30% off of ANY video game.

[OZUS]

can i use the raincheck i got today for luigi's mansion next week on an xbox game or is just until the sale ends. the raincheck says it good until 2/2/04 but do you think the csr will honor it for another game after they have luigi back instock?

just curious.
thanks

[SunnyRT]

Well it says to choose a substitute. If they give you grief just go to another target (if you're within driving distance). Or tell him that you got it at another target already and they didn't have some other game that you wanted so you came back here to get it and didn't think of getting yet another raincheck. Be creative if you have to! Of course i'm always walking in thinking worst case scenario.

[webcamjenna]

OK I keep on following the steps from page 1. But then whenever I scan the code on one of the websites given it says it is invalid. Somebody pleas help.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

[pfunkpearl]

I got a raincheck for luigi's mansion today and went to another target later and used it to get MArio and Luigi superstar saga for only 21.50!!! I told the kid something about my cousin wanted a mario game so can I just sub this. he's like sure.

[DakZero]

(Repost)

What an experience this was...

Okay, I asked for Luigi's Mansion, and they didn't have it. Cool. "Can I get a rain check?"

The guy pauses, looks off... mumbles, "Yeah." He then asks how many I'd like. I wasn't thinking, and was just ecstatic and replied, "Oh, just one."

Then I felt stupid -- and started regreting my response. "Don't get greedy," my wife warned me. I did anyway, so I went back, checked for other missing $19.99=$14 sale games -- couldn't find any of Desert Storm for the X-Box, so I of course asked for it. None? Oh shucks, I'll take two rain checks, please. :)

I deliberate on what I wanted for real -- wanted Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Saphire, and figured I'd picked up SSX: Tricky for $7 (30% off $9.99) as well. I turn to the guy, and low and behold, he found a Desert Storm for X-Box. Now what? I don't even OWN an X-Box! Oh... well, do you have two? Cause remember, I needed two, and if I can't get one for this other guy, I'll be screwed... eh, yeah, that's it.

He looked so confused. "No, I'll just take the substitution..." And he's like, "You can't substitute something we have." So I was like, "Okay, but you can substitute Nintendo for Nintendo, right?"

Nope -- just GameCube for GameCube. So, I ended up getting SSX3 for $37 (after tax), which ain't so bad, and I'm subtracting some money for selling some free games I had gotten recently, so in the end I made out alright. But after getting into it with several people at K-Mart, trying to get them to price match their website with Pikmin, and not succeeding there either -- I'm worn out!

~Dak
PS: IF ANYONE MISSED THIS 30% OFF DEAL, and own an X-Box -- I have a Quantity 2 for Conflict: Desert Storm I, so if your local Target is out of this game, and you want 30% off two X-Box games -- PM me, and maybe we can work out a little dealio (PS/S: I'm all about the GC/GB/GBC/GBA -- :) ). You could save up to $30 with this slip! (It says, "At any Target store until 02/04/04").

[bmulligan]

Man, you are a cheap ass..........

[DakZero]

Daaaaaaamn straight!

[redgopher]

Ghost Recon (Xbox/PlatinumHits) $14 in Bend, Oregon Target. Woot!

[Gojtron]

I posted this a while ago, percentages can go into the 50s sometimes. Target is trying to get back at me for doing this while I worked there, but they won't return my phone calls. It's legal, but some stores may have issues with it. Just come back another time and try again. It's stackable with online coupons.

[DakZero]

So I've got this, "Reg. $19.99 @ 30% off -- Choose a substitute and receive the same percentage off (listed above) on a regular-priced item within the same product category (i.e. TV for TV)."

Now, that's a bit untrue. It's apparently got to be "brand for brand" too (though I suspect it's different with each and every store). My store didn't have some lame ass replacement crap game for the game that's out of stock -- other's stores do. Other's allow you to substitute any game for any game. I hate the inconsistency. :(

Anyway -- we just have to check in here and find out what percentage off sales are going on, and then find the games that're out-of-stock, raincheck them -- and BAM!?

Sweet.

~Dak

[Mojimbo]

Question: SW:KOTOR is $30 this week for xbox. Is that the hot item to raincheck this week(40%, right?)?

[puzzlefite]

Is there any way to find the original price?

Lion King for GBA is still 44% off until 12/22 at my Target. If they still have copies just buy them all. Return your unwanted Lion Kings in 90 days & u should be kewl.

[p0tempkin]

Just got a couple of rain checks for Lion King (44% off), soon to be Project Gotham 2 and Top Spin.

[DakZero]

Ouch -- BUY unwanted games, and just return them all? LOL, now that's Cheap Ass!

So, Lion King, for the GBA, huh? Awesome -- I was wanting Pokemon Pinball for the GBA, but they wouldn't let me turn a GameCube 30% off into a GBA 30% off. My offer for 2, 30% receipts still stands, especially if anyone's willing to just pick me up one of these 40% off Lion King on the GBA deals.

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

~Dak

[puzzlefite]

Yo. Hi. I need 30% PS2 & 30% on Gamecube, I'll trade 44% off Lion King for some. Damn. I asked for 5 Lion king rainchecks and they gave me one receipt w/ quantity 5. So I'll look like a super ass when I use it. Unfortuntaely I was only able to use mine for Gameboy games so yea I'm willing to trade.

LOL Someone should set up a Target raincheck trade site w/ feedback ala eBay haha.

PS: My friend in kali does not have the Lion King deal. It's $30 there. Will they still honor that raincheck? haha

[DakZero]

Well unfortunately my raincheck is for two, 30% off X-Box games, if your local Target is out of "Conflict: Desert Storm" -- but applied to two, $50 X-Box games, that's a $30 savings.

I'm gonna give this "Lion King" thing a shot, unless there's any takers on what I got. :)

~Dak

[guessed]

This is kind of funny. People are starting to go out looking for specific games and hoping the store DOESN'T have them.

"Excuse me, do you have Lion King for GBA?"
"Yes we do, here it is."
"Oh, that's too bad."

or

"Man, I've been to three Targets today, and they all had the games I was looking for. This sucks!"

[DakZero]

You know it! LOL -- I'm jonsing for that 44% off GBA raincheck, but all I got in return is this 2, 30% off X-Box raincheck to trade.

I just hope the same guy isn't in the Electronics section as last time. He either knew I was up to something, or thought I was stoned (my wife noted my eyes were really bloodshot, and the guy probably just thought I was messed up, lol).

~Dak

[thingsfallnapart]

The other day i went to a target and saw that nba jam (reg 29.99) was out of stock and on sale for 19.99. So i got a rain check, drove to another target, and got Karoake Revoulition with the mic for 38.88 instead of 59.99 :]

[DakZero]

Okay, I called my local Target, and they said today couldn't be the last day of a sale, because their sales begin and end on Sunday -- thus Monday can't be the last day of the "Lion King" sale.

THEN, I call another one and get some crap about how it was a price-cut, and I can't get a raincheck on a price-cut, just on sales. Oh, and they're out of stock too.

Can't anyone that's succeeded at this at their local Target help a brotha out? :cry:

PLEEEEEEEEASE????

~Dak

[DakZero]

(double post)

[pfunkpearl]

Maybe we can turn this thread into "what's on sale this week at target/what's likely to have a raincheck." That would be helpful.

[puzzlefite]

Just got back! :-D FFx2 & karaoke revolution 44% off! Damn...so hard to do it with a straight face! haha...no trouble at all either :-D Have to go back cuz the Lion King might just be around the corner! Ack! >_< I'm assuming no one else in my area is doing it yet otherwise Karaoke Revolution wouldn't be there. haha

[Dranakin]

Wait, so a raincheck works how? I'm reading posts over and over, and I still don't get it. Or at least, I slightly get it.

[puzzlefite]

Read the first page. Basically the percentage off the game on the raincheck can be applied to other games.

For example:
Lion King for GBA was 44% off last week. You can get a raincheck for it if it was sold out at your store. On the raincheck it says you get 44% off a substitution. This is where stores vary. The policy is so ambiguous. Ask someone at the store. Here are the possible interpretations of substitution on the receipt.

1. "There are no substitutions at this time." You're outta luck. Raincheck can only be used for Lion King.
2. "Substitute for same game system only." So if you have raincheck for 44% off Lion King, you can use on a GBA game not PS2! You can then get 44% off GBA Mario Kart.
3. Substitute for any other video game. So if yo u have raincheck for 44% off Lion King, you can get 44% off FFX2.

Basically ask guest services, manager, and people working at electronics until you get the answer you want! Some employees may state a different policy than the next person. Then just get there name & you should be set. :-D Be sure to ask if you can substitute when the game goes back in stock too. Hope that helps!

[starman9000]

Its not "where stores may vary" it is where clerks may vary. But it says clearly on the rain check that you can "CHOSE" a subsitute. If that helps anyone.

[erehwon]

I have a question for you guys? When a Target is going to close down, will it move its stuff or clearance it off? My target down the street is closing, being torn down, and super target being built. I'm hoping to get some good deals. It closes on the 16th of Jan.

[puzzlefite]

Yes it does say that. "Choose a substitute." But one of my stores are arguing there are no substitutes you know what I mean. I think that should be left up to the store. For example, if you try to get a refund w/o a receipt they don't have to honor that if they don't want to. I think this is the same deal.

The fact that you can get infinite rainchecks means even if it has to be same game system & same price, it is still abusable. So I think stores should be able to do what they want.

[puzzlefite]

Well. The stores around here have different policies. However the clerks have generally been consistent with the entire store. Oh wellz I'm off for more action tonite. Wish me luck. :-D

[DriftChamp]

I heard on fatwallet that some stores have the Hulk game (XBOX) clearanced down to $7.48.

[bmulligan]

Maybe we can turn this thread into "what's on sale this week at target/what's likely to have a raincheck." That would be helpful.

Let's not.........maybe a new thread with that subject would be a better idea.

This is supposed to be the Target Clearence Thread, I really don't want to have to sift through 50 posts about what's on sale 'cause I'm perfectly capable of reading those nice glossy ads they print with the paper every Sunday.

It's been 2 weeks since any of my local Targets have added to the clearance merchandise. :cry: Perhaps we will see more closeouts after the holiday season.

[pfunkpearl]

Let's not.........'cause I'm perfectly capable of reading those nice glossy ads they print with the paper every Sunday.[/quote]

Well It's hard to tell what actually sold out and would get a raincheck, I'd never suspect rides gone wild would get one, while Desert storm for ps2 wouldn't. But what ever..

[puzzlefite]

Buy all the games then return em at another store. I'm still wondering if anyone has cleaned out an entire electronics department. At 44% off, all video games are worth buying!

[RaidenMGS3]

The Hulk for X-Box is 7.48, and Soldier of Fortune Ii: Double Helix for X-Box is 12.48

[DakZero]

::c-cough::

Now, are these sale prices you could raincheck, if they're out of them? Sorry if bringing up this raincheck thing bothers people in the Target thread here -- but it's too great a deal.

~Dak

[RaidenMGS3]

No, they're just clearance prices and can't be rainchecked. Once they're gone they're gone

[puzzlefite]

Bleh! Why didn't anyone tell me that KOTOR sale ended on the 24th! OH wellz I'm willing to trade Lion King receipts for KOTOR.

Thanks.

Currently only thing for sale at my target is FFX for $15.88

[E-Z-B]

York, PA: Actionvision Anthology (PS2): $9.99

[terribledeli]

Nothing new for the last couple of weeks. Its a shame, I've always got an eye out for Voodoo Vince...

[Soft Nugget]

well, in the case of the hulk I was wondering if it was possible to get the game sent to the store from the website for store pickup, return it, then get it at the clearance price later on.

[Gothic Walrus]

well, in the case of the hulk I was wondering if it was possible to get the game sent to the store from the website for store pickup, return it, then get it at the clearance price later on.

I don't think Target does in-store pickups of online orders. The best you could hope for is to buy the item and ask them to give you the clearance price - most stores will price match their own drops.

So...any cool GBA or PC titles on clearance lately? I'd love to get another deal like Sonic Advance for $6.50... :D

[ayolykewhoa]

They dropped Hitman 2 for PC for below $10.

[SteveMcQ]

Saw Black Hawk Down for $14.98. I also saw Neverwinter Nights, but don't remember the clearance price.

[Freshwillis]

I got Castlevania AoS for $14.98 and Fzero for 34.98.

[RaidenMGS3]

The X2 Wolverine game for X-Box was dropped to 7.48 today

[JibbaJabba]

picked up the last copy of Castlevania Aria of Sorrow (GBA) $7.48

[SteveMcQ]

The EA Gamer's Pack (don't know the exact name) for PC was $10.48.

It's got four games, including Freedom Force and Need For Speed II. Oldies, but goodies. Can't remember the other two though.

EDIT: Thanks for the heads up video_gamer324

[user]

$8 for Aria of Sorrow??

incredible...

[video_gamer324]

The EA Gamer's Pack (don't know the exact name) for PC was $10.48.

It's got four games, including Freedom Fighters and Need For Speed II. Oldies, but goodies. Can't remember the other two though.

Correction: It includes Freedom Force, not Freedom Fighters. Also, the other two games are 'Earth and Beyond' and 'Command and Conquer: Renegade.' You can pick it up for $10 at EB.

http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/233735.asp

[SteveMcQ]

Thanks for the correction. It's the superhero game, though I did see Freedom Fighters PC for $14.98 at Target.

I wasn't aware the EA Gamer's Pack retails that cheap elsewhere. It might go down to $7.98 sometime soon so keep an eye out.

[MauMauProductions]

Today I saw at Target:

Lost Kingdoms 1 for 4.98

[BigDirty]

Princeton NJ

Mace Griffin (XBX) $4.98

[BigDirty]

East Windsor NJ

NHL 2003, $2.54

I got the last copy, BUT there are still copies in Princeton, but I can't vouch for price there.

Mace Griffin, $4.98

[scsg75]

Saw Conflict Desert Storm (Xbox) $15
Maximum Chase (Xb0x) $15
Mace Griffin (Xbox)-$4.98

They had a bunch of other games marked $39 scanning at $29.99 nothing good though. Indy Car Racing (PS2) and Madden 2003 (PS2) was about the jist of it. They also had a ton of Syberia (Xbox) but I didn't scan them.

[bmulligan]

brighton MI:

Action Replay for GC $7.08

I got the last one but you may still find them at some other stores.

[BigDirty]

Just an update, for the listing of many GH/PH that were listed as $15.00 over the past week, it was actually a chainwide sale, and not a clearance. The sale is over, and most are back to the regular $19.99 pricing.

[Monsta Mack]

Max Chase already on clearance? Damn, the game just came out for the XBox not even two months ago.

[pachi]

Quntum redshift was $7.46. so scan it.

[ft]

Maximum Chase is scanning at $19.99 in my area. I want it, but I think I'll wait for it to drop some more.

Also, as a head's up, don't forget to look *under* the clearance shelf at your local Target. I found a bunch of sub-$10 clearance games someone was hiding!

haha! now someone's gonna be looking for their stash and won't find it!

[BigDirty]

You have to find a better spot in the store to stash, like in the toy department somewhere, or in the housewares, it's all about finding a place where it won't be seen, but don't keep it in the section, the crafty will find them.

i used to do that with toys when i was a kid and didnt have enough money at the time...man i ruled at that

[JSweeney]

I remember having to actually go through all of the aisles back when I worked retail and actually lift all of the shelves to check that people weren't stashing things under the bottom shelf of a rack of shelving. Not all stores have it, but some older shelving units actually have a bottom shelf that can be lifted up... you'd be amazed at how much stuff people tried to stash under there... Hot Wheels, stuff on clearence, etc.

[OwlBoy]

hmm I may have to get in on this...

[Monsta Mack]

Hulk XBox $7.48 or so
Maxium Chase is down to $19.99, but I didnt bother picking it up considering all the games I got recently and the ratings it has gotten.

[Sinksand]

My local Target has Unlimited Saga for $6.88. From what I've read it might only be worth about that much. Target also had two stacks of PS2 Everquest for under $5.

Megaman Network Transmission is priced at $29.99, but I'm eagerly awaiting the day when they drop the price to Target's usual amazing lows.

[Masterkyo]

Dynasty Warriors 4 (XBOX) $29.99

[MaxBiaggi3]

Today around noon, I picked up the following at my local Target:

SSX Tricky for GCN, $4.99
Panzer Dragoon Orta for Xbox, $7.50

[spooner]

and it is pretty wack, but at the target in southern california, i got xenosaga on clearance for 7.48, which is the price it should be at every one

[Saurus]

Don't know if it's been brought up but Phantasy Star Online for XBox is $10...
:shock:
Picked up the last one...Anyone see anymore Panzeer Dragoon Ortas for $7.50 at any Chicagoland Targets? Thanks!

[RaidenMGS3]

The PSOne portable TV screen has been dropped to 32.98 (down from 129.99), Everquest for the PS2 is 4.98, Phantasy Star Online for the Xbox is 7.48, and Kya for PS2 is down to 19.99

[YoshiFan1]

Found Mario Sunshine with a Memory Card 251 (Nintendo brand) for $29.99

[guessed]

I got my first ever Target Clearance game tonight! Mixed in with the PC games was Driver 2 Advance (GBA) marked $7.48 with an orange sticker. Having missed this when it was $10? at CC, I decided to go ahead and get it. When I scanned it, though, it was $3.74. :shock: Score! :D

[Engineer_J]

I picked up PSO X-Box 9.98 :)

[JibbaJabba]

Mark of Kri $7.48 PS2

[The Cheapest Ass Gamer]

I picked up PSO X-Box 9.98 :)

Phantasy Star Online is down to $5.04 now! :shock: I just picked mine up and it was the last copy.

[sadmaker]

action replay for xbox $14.88

[Snake2715]

I dont know if this was in there or not because I dont have time to search through 19 pages of stuff.

Anyway if you missed the KB toys sale then Silent Hill 3 is only $29.99 at my local target and the games were out of the case.

[OwlBoy]

Also of note:

Backyard Hocky is 9.99 normally 19.99

It was OOS at my Target, so that would have been 50% off.

DONT OVERLOOK THE KIDDY GAMES!

:D

-Owl

[organicow]

at 2 targets in my area (Atlanta), none of these clearance markdowns have been made. they all ring up as normal!! sucks for me!!

[Teremei]

I'd just like to say. MY GOD, how lucky are you guys? I never see deals like this at my local target. Well maybe I should check them all out eh? I've only checked out 3 of them. But I think there are 2 more stores near me.

The best I got was Castlevania Aria for $14.98 which isn't bad.

By the way I saw GTA double pack XBOX for $37.98 not bad.

[ngamer007]

Panzer Dragoon Orta was $49.99 when I went there yesterday... what a load of crap.

[sisko]

eReader games come up on the scanner as FREE (at least pinball and DK3 did).

Good luck finding any though. Also good luck trying to walk out the door with it for that much. They didn't let me take either, but they offered them at substantial discounts. Maybe if you buy a bunch of stuff, they won't notice.

[DriftChamp]

Panzer Dragoon Orta was $49.99 when I went there yesterday... what a load of crap.

Did you try scanning the game? I found a copy today and it was marked at full price behind the glass cabinet. I had a Target employee scan it, and it came up as $7.48.

[DriftChamp]

If you can find them, these games should be on clearance at your local Target. They should be $7.48 or less by now.

GBA
Golden Sun (only the 1st one)
Crazy Taxi
Wolverine's Revenge
Digimon Battle Spirit (only the 1st one)

Gamecube
Lord of the Rings The Two Towers
Rugrats Royal Ransom

XBOX
Kakuto Chojin
The Hulk
Pirates: Legend of Black Kat
Namco Museum

PS2
Aliens vs Predator
Piglet's Big Game

If you find any of these marked at full price behind the glass cabinet, ask the sales associate to scan the game!

When they scan as $0.00 it does not mean they are free. This is covered earlier in the thread.

[DakZero]

Just wanted to thank the fellow who mentioned SSX Tricky. It's definately not as good as SSX3, but considering it was $5, I feel it was WELL worth it.

So these aren't all clearance, in the sense that they're just laying around in that cheapy section, right? Some actually are BEHIND glass? Becuase SSX Tricky was out of case, and since I hadn't printed up the code, was the only reason I was able to price it and buy it.

I'll have to start printing those UPC codes out now.

3 Stupid & Clueless employees try charging meeeh $49.99 for Mace Griffin: Bounty Hunter (XBOX). It Ring up $4.38 but all 3 employees said is somekind of mistake & is not on clearance cuz the Price tag is $49.99.

After waiting 10 mins. & they try ripping meeeh off an extra $45.61 + Taxes by adjusted the price up to $49.99

I try to explain but they're so SUPER DUMB to listened "They keep saying the Price tag is $49.99"

I went home w/ Empty hand but I did score 6 "Rain Check" for Madden 2004 (PC)

You should have asked for a manager, or you could've created a big scene by cussing them out.

[simpsonps121]

My Target (Columbia MD) does not have a clearance section for now. Also, they don't have any of the clearance games.
Just a heads up.
Take Care,
Matthew

[henniger]

I got Driver 2 Advance for GBA for $3.74 at the Target in Ithaca, NY. It got 8.4/10 at Gamespot.com.

Wow, that sucks. You know they are obligated to give you the item for what it scans at. Haven't you ever seen those tell all stories that 20/20 or Dateline does about register scanning errors. Most of the time, things scan at more than what they are marked, in which case, unless you say something, you get ripped off, it some cases they scan for less in which case, they are obligated to sell it to you for that amount as it is their error. Same thing goes for when items are mis signed. They are obligated to sell it to you for what the sign says. I got Zone of the Enders 2 when it first came out for $14.99 at Circuit City because some employee stocked all of the ZOE2 where the first ZOE (which was on sale that week for $14.99) went. There were about 7 ZOE2 behind the $14.99 sign that said Zone of the Enders- $14.99 and not one of the first ZOE. I took it to the service desk, told them the sign said $14.99, they adjusted the price and gave it to me for that, then they went and took the sign down. I would have raised hell if I were you.

Too bad BB wouldn't give me THUG for free when thats what its price tag said. I kid you not $0.00 is exactly what the tag said.

Kind of OT here, but the first post in the thread points you to websites that generates UPC's for you. Is there a program out there for Palm OS that will do the same thing? That way I can just punch in the numbers and scan my Palm Pilot. It would make things a whole lot easier, but I can't seem to find one.

[minx]

I would love to be able to do this on my palm!

But wouldn't the reflectiveness of the LCD screen present a problem?

[Blamo]

Question... My target is in a mall area (northgate mall by seattle, WA), and dosn't appear to have a clearance section at all... What are the chances of the games that are posting as clearance on here, to be the same there? Seeing as Im a minor, I figure an employee would get pretty annoyed if I asked for them to take a game out of the case, have them scan it at full price, and ask me to put it back. While Im sure they'd do it, for the most part I perfer to avoid causing problems... makes things for everyone easier.

[CameronPhD]

Blamo, do what is described very early (first page) of this topic: Print out the barcodes for the games you are interested in and scan them yourself at one of the price-check stations in the store.

[jojoschump2000]

I checked the Boise, ID Target here. No luck with any cheap clearance prices that I saw. I grabbed a few batches of their clearance gamesto price scan them, everything was still priced marked. Just wanted to pass it along for anyone else, don't know how many are in the Idaho area. :) I will try again in a week or two.

[sandrockgundam219]

My clearance stuff actually moved from that place by the game area to around the corner by the pc games. Maybe check there guys :)

[akilshohen]

That's how it is at the target's I go to.
Also add Nightcaster 2 for $12.99
it's probably a horrible game but it's still a cheap game.

[tmbgman]

Just passing along, I picked up State of Emergency (XB) and SSX Tricky (CG) both for around 5 bucks.

[Dead of Knight]

Don't know if this was posted already (you may remove it if it is), but my Target (N. Attleboro, MA) had EQ Online Adventures for $4.97. That was the only deal they had, sadly. :(

[Masterkyo]

Zelda: Season XXX (GBC) $4.97

[bowsernieb]

Master...did you find that at the Target in Olathe out by AMC Studio 30 or the one over off of Metcalf near the post office? Or maybe a different one entirely...

[Staind204]

I found NHL 2003 (Xbox) for $0. I tried to buy something else with it and hope they wouldnt notice, but they did and wouldnt sell it to me :-(

[mcwilliams132]

we got JACK at the Target in Oshkosh, WI.

[asianxcore]

someone should gather a list of whats been mentioned so far. anyone know how much Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance and Silent Hill 3 are, I think someone here said Silent Hill 3 was 29.99 but I'm not sure.

[robtrimble]

I was at Target less than a week ago and picked up Unreal Championship (not a platinum copy) for 15, but what you want to know is that I also saw Mortal Combat Deadly Alliance also for 15 XBOX

[Staind204]

Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance was $19.99 at mine.. but thats how much PH games are suppose to be =/

[biznutch]

I found NHL 2003 (Xbox) for $0. I tried to buy something else with it and hope they wouldnt notice, but they did and wouldnt sell it to me :-(

All you needed to do was find someone with a handheld scanner. It should be ~ $6.

[Gojtron]

Exactly. Ringing at zero dollars requires an LRT to get a price.

[ANARKY]

No Fear! A Target employee is here!

I scan games everyday to see whats clearance and just about all the ones that you guys listed have been clearanced at one point or another till theres no more of that game. So I'll be on the look out for new clearance and I will post it up here.

[chedderknight]

i went to target this morning to jump on the 7.98 deal for xenosaga, but no xenosaga to be found...they sold out....woe is me V_V

[hwong3]

Queens, NY Target is cleared out. Nothing good. Just Nightcaster 2 (which sucks) for $12.98. Picked up the last PSO for Xbox, but it rang up at $9.98 on the handscanner (as it rang up 0 at the register), not $4.98 as some others. A shame, since I spent so much time building up my characters in PSO for Gamecube and don't have a broadband adapter, now I have to do it all over again on the Xbox!! Even the rain checks stink this week (Midnight Race for $14.99 sold out, so you can get 25% off rain checks).

[C_A]

i went to target this morning to jump on the 7.98 deal for xenosaga, but no xenosaga to be found...they sold out....woe is me V_V

If you have a Circuit City nearby they're 10 there (ignore the price tag, it's wrong.)

[Masterkyo]

I pickup Zelda: Season XXX (GBC) $4.97 at Lees Summit SuperTarget

I belived they have 2 copies left ..... Call them b4 you visit them (incase is OUT of STOCK)

[RaidenMGS3]

Today 4 PS2 games went clearance. Arc The Lad & ESPN NHL Hockey went to 20.98, and Clock Tower 3 & Ape Escape 2 went to 13.98

[TheRock88]

Today 4 PS2 games went clearance. Arc The Lad & ESPN NHL Hockey went to 20.98, and Clock Tower 3 & Ape Escape 2 went to 13.98

I went to Target today and also noticed that ESPN NHL Hockey for $20.98 and also saw that they had a couple copies of Ape Escape 2 for the same price you listed. I also think The Great Escape was on sale too. Glad I picked up the last copy of ESPN. :D

[JibbaJabba]

you can add the following to the list:

PS2 Games:
Twisted Metal Black $13.98
Crazy Taxi $13.98
Silent Hill 2 $13.98

GBA:
Megaman Zero $7.48 (rings up $0.00, so get it scanned with a CRT)

[bmulligan]

Wixom MI Target has a Stack of games ALL PS2 back in the old clearance endcap in the back of electronics:
Wolverines revenge - 20.98
Clock tower 3 - 20.98
Indiana Jones - 20.98

[Master]

Is somebody gonna make a list. I'm far too busy to make one, I wish I had the time to read this whole thread!

Thanks for posting your findings though guys.

[burgundy]

The bitch about making a Target list is that every store is different.

Anyone know about how long it takes for an item to hit the next clearance level? Ballpark.

[biznutch]

Anyone know about how long it takes for an item to hit the next clearance level? Ballpark.

Like you said, the clearance level is different at every store. :lol:

[Lord Alfred]

Here's a report from the Anderson, S.C. store:

PS2

MGS: Substance - $13.98
Ape Escape 2 - $13.98
Indiana Jones - $20.98
Disney's Extreme Skate - $20.98
Twisted Metal Black - $13.98
Socom w/ headset - $20.98

[Gojtron]

It's about 2 weeks per cycle, varying by random schedulings and by efficiency of the price-change team.

[JibbaJabba]

Cube:

WWE Crush Hour $3.74

PS2:

Evil Dead $13.98

[jpdunphy]

I saw Arc the Lad (PS2) for that $20.98 price at the Target in Middletown, NJ. But, since I just spent $58 on SEVEN games at CC last night, I was a little leary about dropping that money. Hopefully I won't regret it. I really went there for that Xenosaga deal but apparently they were sold out. The stinking problem is that since most of the games are behind glass, you can't go through them all with a fine tooth comb. I mean, there COULD be one copy of Xenosaga sandwiched between the tens of copies of American Idol collecting dust, yes? Yes. Oh well...

[ashram]

just picked up the sony brand psone lcd for $32 + tax at the west kendall , miami target.

[bang4dabuc]

I stopped in 2 Targets today. The first had Starsky and Hutch (PS2) for 13.98, the second had it for 9.98.

[Ebraum]

Saw Star Wars Bounty Hunter PS $20.98 as well as Mace Griffen $13.98

[starman9000]

I dont have a ps2, but my target in ND had 5 ddrmax2 sets for 41 dollars in a clearance section. Seemed pretty good. They also had the Phantasy Star for xbox games for 5$.

[EazySCT]

Hey cheapasses....just got back from Target. Believe it or not I went there with the determination to buy DDRMAX and low and behold they had it clearanced for $41.99!!

Dunno where you guys are, but I live in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. So check it out! Great deal!

[Darkstar]

Stuntman - $13.98
Clock Tower - $13.98

Sorry buddy, but it appears you paid retail. DDRMAX (and MAX2) costs $40 retail where I live.

[EazySCT]

I seriously doubt it costs $40 retail including the dance mat.

[chosen1s]

I'm not going to read through this whole thread to see if this has already been posted, but a couple of weeks ago I stumbled upon Phantasy Star Online for Gamecube. They must have found it in the back because I've looked for it several times in that store since I heard they went on Clearance back in the Fall. The price was $15.

[Blamo]

He's talking about MAX2 w/ pad, Im pretty sure. Not a huge savings, maybe 10-15 dollars, but its nice none the less :D Especially considering its starting to get hard to find >.<

An item starts as ACTIVE...then it moves to DISCONTINUED..and usually if it doesn't sell out of its copies they send it back there copies before it hits clearance to save money so only a few times will you ever see clearance b/c at the Target I work theres about 20 discountinued games in the display case which means they will slowly one by one be shipped back and replaced with newer games.

[eastx]

I too work at Target and we never, ever send games back at mine. They go on Clearance, even if it does take forever. DVDs we send back all the time, and those don't ever go on clearance, as I'm sure you know.

[dsullo]

first off I never find good deals at my target. But today I found for the PC


Tiger Woods PGA 2002 for 4.00
NeverwinterNights PC for 8.00

Eventhough the golf is 2002, the graphics and gameplay are amazing and I just started a NWN game , so far its pretty good too.

This actually makes some sense. I have 2 Targets in my city, and they are totally different. One seems to have games on clearance once or twice a month, the other never does. My guess is the one store sends the games to the other store. Also, if the games stay in the display cases, they tend to move out. If they go to a clearance section, I am pretty sure that they stay around forever - Because people don't know where they are... And I have cleaned up a couple of times.

Oh well,
Take Care,
Matthew

[sman113]

my target has the worst selection of games i have ever seen. Sam's Club has more than they do. Its unfortunate.

[tmbgman]

My target has Chaos Legion (ps2) for like, $27. It's not a big savings, but if you want the game, I guess it's cool.

[spaniel]

just picked up Maximo:ghosts to glory for $4.38 and
MGS 2: Substance for $13.98. Checked quite a few
Targets for socom w/headset, but no dice.

Dunno if you're in the Houston area, but the Main Street SuperTarget had one last copy of SOCOM w/ the headset for $20.88. I picked up the 2nd to last copy :D .

[Pinnacle]

Does walmart do clearance?

[Wshakspear]

yes, but very badly

[brodeus]

Don't know if this is a big deal or if anyone is interested, but my local target (Gainesville, FL) had Links 2004 (Xbox) for $29.99 on the clearance rack.
Just thought I would throw that out there.

-Steve

[raybert]

Dunno if you're in the Houston area, but the Main Street SuperTarget had one last copy of SOCOM w/ the headset for $20.88. I picked up the 2nd to lastcopy :shock: tHANKS for the heads up, spaniel. I'm actually from the Austin area. Not to far from houston. if i didn't hafta work some double shifts this weekend i'd probably swing on over there. that's a fantastic deal though. have fun. :P

[chedderknight]

how does this clearance sale at target work, cause everytime i go, theres not much on sale, or is it you have to get those games and scan them?

[Monsta Mack]

You have to scan the items at a price scanner or ask an employee. Target has a few in the store, and theres usually always one by electronics. Not all of the clearance items are placed outside of the case, but occasionaly they are. I would keep an eye on this thread and post any new deals you find, It's better to check here first before going into Target looking for the deals, as most of the time it takes forever for an employee to arive to help you check prices, not to mention the lazy employees who will tell you It's the tagged price and not bother doing an inquiry at all.

For recent games all I have seen are (clearances and flat out price cuts):
ESPN Nhl Hockey $29.99 PS2
Maximo $10 and lower
Metal Gear Solid (not substance) $10 and lower
Original Virtua Fighter 4
Dynasty Warriors 4 $29.99 for XBox and PS2
Maximum Chase $19.99 XBox
Supposively PSO for XBox and GC are both on clearance.

[popps]

just saw final fantasy x 2 at target (burbank, ca) for 39.99....

[chedderknight]

so thats MGS2 GH for 10 and lower? sadly i never got around to getting that game, sounds about time i did

[spaniel]

Raybert, I'm actually heading back up to the Austin area - I go to school there. PM me before this Sunday(1/18) if you'd like me to pick up the SOCOM w/ headset for you: I could easily return it to one of the targets up in Austin or just exchange it w/ you in person. Lemme know if you want it.

[JibbaJabba]

Just picked up:

how does this clearance sale at target work, cause everytime i go, theres not much on sale, or is it you have to get those games and scan them?

I might be mistaken, but I seem to recall the particulars having been explained about six times in this very thread. You might want to read the thread.

Easier way in Monroeville,PA target*have to check the other local area targets*..You don't even have to go through the hassle of printing the barcodes(although I am sure it would be faster)They have the newer scanners that allow you to enter the barcodes in by hand on their Price Checkers located throughout the store. :)

[pfunkpearl]

Starsky and hutch 13.98. Not a great deal but hey. Mission impssible for ps2 had a temporary price cut from 49.99 to 34.99. Not sure why, maybe to match competition.

[Saurus]

Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits and Auto Modellista were dropped to $14.98 at my Target... :shock: they had ALOT yesterday now they're down to 3 Auto Modellista and 4 Arc the Lads...alot of people must watch the clearance rack... :wink:

[Saurus]

oh yeah...Kya dropped to $14.98 as well...

[JibbaJabba]

SpyHunter PS2 $13.98


Lucked out earlier. Went to get the last MM Zero (which scans up as $0.00) the guy in electronics checked me out and let me have the game for nothing as he was paying no attention to what he was scanning.
Although I would have thought any moron would have checked the receipt considering my total was only $4, he just looked at the game and said "man that's a cheap game". :D

Just thought I would share my little experience.

[spek]

Binghamton store-
Mace Griffin Xbox- 4.98
Red Rock RTX PS2 - 4.98
Dynasty Warriors 4 Xbox- 20.98 !
Clock Tower 3 PS2 - 9.98
Kya PS2 - 14.98
Godzilla Destroy All Monsters GCN- 19.99 (Maybe on sale, not sure)

Mace didn't register at all on the scanner, so it's probably about to get sent back at the stores that do that.

[blackchubby]

Anybody know if Aliens Vs. Predator (XBOX) is on clearance, if so do u guys know how much?

[twiddle]

Not necessarily for a system but a video game just the same. The Target in Federal Way, WA had the BeyBlade VForce Arcade Challenge 5 in 1 game system originally priced as $44.99, marked down to a mere $11.12. Great for the little kids who are into this genre. Plugs directly into your TV, and can be multiplayer with mail-away offer. People were buying 3-5 of them at a time for birthdays and Christmas next year. Feel sorry for the ones who bought it before XMAS for $59.95 at TRUS.

[burgundy]

You find that in the toy department?

[Pinnacle]

I found Aliens vs Predator (xbox) on the clearance rack for 29.99. This was the Barboursville Target in WV.

[bmulligan]

HEY GUYS!! Since the clearance markdowns seem to vary by region, can we please include the city/state info with our posts on the great deals??? Thanks in advance !!

[twiddle]

Yes the Beyblade V Force system was in the Toy section, they had an entire rack full of them but people were picking them up rather quickly. Check your Target to see what they have in stock.
