The Target Clearance Thread

[Atreadon]

Checked Target at White Plains, NY. There were lots of GH-type games for GC/PS2/XB for $19.99, and a few craptastic titles for PS2 which were labeled $14.98. There was only one game for less than that, Fusion Frenzy for Xbox at $4.98, which I got. What I was really hoping to find was a cheap-ass copy of Dynasty Warriors 4. They had the game behind the glass display case, but it was labeled $49.99. I tried to talk the clerk into getting it out and price checking it, but he seemed convinced that it really was fifty bucks and didn't seem to want to get it out and check. Now I wish I hadn't backed off...I can't stop wondering if I missed out! :?

[drfrielgood]

I believe the PS2 version of Dynasty Warriors 4 is ringing up for $30.

[bradr]

Was alien vs Preditor also on clearence (xbox) because it too had 29.99 price on it and i remeber something about that game being really cheap...

Nope, checked AvP for XBox today at Target. It rang up 29.99. KB had it for $10 when their sale was going on so that's probably what you're thinking about.

Target had the PS2 version of AvP on clearance a few months back, so that could be what he was thinking of.

Are you sure it wasn't NBA street 1?

NBA Street 2 for $10 is a great deal!

[jerryenzyme]

I just got back from the Super Target in Cedar Park, and I was able to get Ape Escape 2 for $4.38 and Return to Castle Wolfenstein(PS2) for $6.58. They had only 2 copies of RTCW left, but they had at least 40 copies of Ape Escape 2, I'm not kidding. Thought I'd give the Austin people the heads up.

Thanks for the tip, just picked up Ape Escape 2 over there tonight.

[-Never4ever-]

Actually i was thinking of both deals. :P

[blackandbluehero]

I hit the other 3 Targets I knew about in Austin: I-35 & Parmer, Ben White, and Oak Hill, and the only thing I found was Mace Griffin at the Oak Hill Target. They had 3 copies, but after I left, the clerk looked like he was taking them out of the case for either himself or moving them. I got it for 4.98 by the way. Good luck...I'm still pissed I haven't found Chaos Legion yet though.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't keeping Mace Griffin for himself. I mean... come on. Seriously. Mace Griffin?

San Marcos Target had several Chaos Legions last time I was there. They were marked 30 and ringing up 20.

I hate when they refuse to price check, especially when there is no one else around who can do it. Recently I had to argue with the employee, because he insisted that if it says $49.99 on the shelf in front of the game, then it is $49.99. I finally convinced him that, since the shelf tag had "Conflict 2" written on it, there might just be a slim chance that it wasn't the price for Arc the Lad (which turned out to be $15, and I bought it. I know some of you have had luck finding it cheaper, but my Targets suck at clearancing games).

You should have done 1 of two things.
1.) Said you wanted to buy the game, then when he scanned it and if it was'nt the price you was expecting tell him you changed your mind.

2.) Tell him you wanted to speak to the manager, and if the manager refused to do the price check then ask him for his name then ask for the phone # to corparate.

NEVER backdown from these lazy ass employees.

[Pootie Thang]

Is there any possibility that someone could compile a list? Because that would be nice. :)

[bugg33]

I picked up a few games recently

Super Monkey Ball 2 $7.48
Clock Tower 3 $4.98
Kya $7.48
Crazy Taxi 3 $16.99

Oh, this was at Foster City, CA and Redwood City, CA

[TwoHeadedBoy]

I hate you! SMB2 for less than $8!!! (cries self to sleep)

[Repairman Jack]

I picked up Wild Arms 3 for $7.48, but it was the last one and I'm guessing very few Targets still have them in. The barcode had been punched for some reason, though the game was still wrapped tight... (Maybe a vendor copy?) They had to figure out what the bar code was by randomly entering numbers for the punched number until the name popped up...

[bmulligan]

I picked up a few games recently

Super Monkey Ball 2 $7.48

Locations people, locations. This isn't the BRAGGING forum. Please list your locations because we all know that Target clearance deals vary with location!

Thanks!

[Sparda]

Do they have any final fantasies

[NewFiregaming]

First of all who else has noticed that the elctronics section is totaly neglected! I have been to about 20 stores and all but like 2 I had to jump hoops to get anyone back there!
Anyway...in response to the guy that had problems getting the price check I just wanted to say that the making them think you will buy it is the greatest way, but when I go in and ask to see like 5 to 10 games I get the employee back there and look them in the eye and tell them like it is..."Alright I need to see these games and when you pull them this is going to be what they ring up at, but if your store isn't as uptodate as the other target stores then I am not going to want them so only pull one at a time and if the price is what it should be I will take them all!" They then look at me like I am crazy and tell me that there is no way I am right and that they garuantee it won't be like that (but they do it cause they want to prove this cocky little jerk wrong)....I then just tell them to humor me...so they do at which point they start freaking asking me how I knew that...at which point I tell them how messed up there store is! ~ I also have another unrude method, but this one is more fun cause I have run into sooooo many rude target employee's that I just took their attitude and put back at them! ~ The other way is be nice and just let them run you over a little bt, "Ummm, can you help me for a sec, would you mind humoring me for a sec?" they say yes at which point then they have to, "yeah my friend was in here the other day and got that game right there less then what it's marked and I was just wondering if you could do a quick price check on it to see if he was telling me the truth." Sir that's the price marked so I'm sure that's what it is..."well yea, but I am sure he wouldn't lie so could you check it out for me please" they do and find my "friend" didn't lie at which point I say well then he said these games should be lower also and I get all the games pulled that I want...adding a few eachtime to check!

[YoshiFan1]

I have had the same problem with employees refusing to check the price on an item in the case because they "know for sure" the sticker price is right.

Now, I just say I am interested in the item and AFTER they take the item out of the case and take it to the register in the electronics section I ask for a price check. Once they already have the item out of the case, I haven't had a problem getting any price checks.

[livetnediser]

Flint MI:
Megaman Network Transmission- $14.98

Burton MI:
Silent Hill 3- $14.98
Chaos Legion- $9.98

[lurknomore]

Come on all, don't be so selfish with these Target clearance deals....by taking them ALL.

[Whambamm]

I looked up on Target's website where the other Targets were in Austin, and I ended up going to the one on I-35 just south I-35 and 183, it's in Capital Plaza. I went there and got there last copy of Kya for $7.48, a copy of X2:Wolverine's Revenge (ps2)for $7.48, and the last 2 copies of Dynasty Warriors 4 for XBOX for $7.48 a piece. Sorry I took the last 2 but my friend asked me to pick him up a copy if I saw it. As for X2, there were at least 4 copies left and it's not a bad deal at all for $7.48. Still no Chaos Legion though. And about going to San Marcos, I would rather check the other Targets around Austin to try and find a copy of it for $10 than waste gas to drive to to San Marcos AND pay $20 for it. Keep in mind I live in Northwest Austin, so it would take me at least 30 minutes to even get out of Austin. Sorry, went on a little rant there. Once again, just giving the heads up to fellow Austin CAGers. Almost forgot I also saw Mace Griffin, Ape Escape 2, and Starsky & Hutch at this Target.

[Togepy]

Brooklyn, NY

Arc the Lad- $6.48
Fusion Frenzy- $4.98

[goldengraham]

Damn all the non-NorCal targets with their "under $5 Ape Escape 2 and Arc the Lad deals. You think you could at least find a copy of Mace Griffin up here, but nope, got absolutely nothing except ridiculous gas prices.

[jshawnd]

Pittsburgh, PA - Waterfront. Picked up Twisted Metal Black for $4.98. There weren't any more copies left, though, and no Crazy Taxi.

Charlotte, NC

Hulk GC $7.48
NBA Sreet Vol 2 GC $ 9.98
Tiger Woods 2003 GC $9.98
Hitman 2 GC $12.48

[Yeahman]

For those living in the DFW area, the Mansfield store has about 20 copies of Ape Escape 2 for $4.98

It was marked $9.98, so I ask the clerk "Hey I saw this for $4.98 at another Target but didn't get it and now they don't have it. Could you check and see if your price matches thiers."

Sales Clerk: "Not all Targets are the same. The price is what it is marked."

"Could you check"

Sales Clerk rolls his eyes and checks.

Ape Escape 2 Marked: $9.98

Ape Escape 2 Scanned: $4.98

Owned look on smart ass employee: priceless

[pachi]

I LOVE pwning employees of stores, my Circuit City is the best for doing that, at least during the clearence sale it was. haha.

I'll be going to Target tomorrow, last time they had loads of Fusion Frenzy, This time I have money to get one :)

[NewFiregaming]

Yeah, that Fuzion Frenzy is a tricky one cause only about 1 out of every 5 targets I have been to have it for 4.98....all the others are still up there at 19.98!

Will these games scan at these prices everywhere? Ive been thinking of going to target and asking them to get some games out of the glass case becuase they are not in the clearance section (Pikmin ,etc). If they are not clearanced priced becuase they are not in the clearance section then it would be useless for me to do that. however if the markdowns are effective in most places and they haven't gotten around to moving them to the clearance section yet..........

[NewFiregaming]

Hey, first of all, thanks!
Second of all, no the prices are not always the same due to the fact that some targets haven't marked everything down as far, but I would say that across the board all of those games have been marked down to some extent. So yes it would be worth asking for them to get them out of behind the glass case. Don't be afraid to make people do there job of helping the customer....you don't ever have to be overly rude....but just remember that the7y are paid to help you!
Ps. I found Unlimited Saga in some indiana store while I was passing through and it kept ringing up as "illegal item in store" and after this huge ordeal cause she couldn't figure it out she wouldn't let it go for anything less than 7.98....sad times though in comparison to one target that I went to and that happened and the guy just told me to name a price and gave it to me for 3.98 ~ That was for Panzer Dragoon!

[guessed]

...

Will these games scan at these prices everywhere?

Unfortunately, no. Each Target has the option of when to move items to the various stages of clearance. All of the Targets in my area are usually at least one step behind (double the price). But certainly give it a shot and see, you might get lucky.

Edit: NewFire beat me.

[earlje]

always wanted to compile the list but was just too loazy to do it.. anyway, good one bugg33!

[coach knight]

i just picked up

Dayton, OH

Super Monkey Ball 2 $7.50

Looks like the new round of clearance games has hit. I was really hoping to find Street Vol. 2 though...

[Whambamm]

Well, today I went to the Target at I-35 and William Cannon in Austin, and I finally found Chaos Legion for $9.98. When I asked the employee to get it, right behind it was a copy of The Great Escape, which I got for $4.98. I also got one of about 5 copies of Clock Tower 3 that they had. I did get the last copies of Chaos Legion and The Great Escape though, sorry. Anyways thought I would post and let the fellow Austin CAGers know that Clock Tower 3 is at the Target at I-35 and William Cannon.

To be continued when I go to the Target in Bee Caves tomorrow...

[Repairman Jack]

I got Indiana Jones and Jedi Knight Outcast for $14.98 each. They also had Midnight Run 2 for the same price. All on Xbox.

[RaidenMGS3]

Jedi Outcast and NCAA Football 2003 for XBox both went to 14.98 today. Prince of Persia for Gamecube dropped to 29.99. The DDRMax 2 combo game/mat for the PS2 is only 14.98 now.

[Mr_hockey66]

Bug your awsome thank you so much. I bet that took like a week to do. We all bow down to you o great bug. we are forever in your debt!@ Thanks

[msdmoney]

Jedi Outcast and NCAA Football 2003 for XBox both went to 14.98 today. Prince of Persia for Gamecube dropped to 29.99. The DDRMax 2 combo game/mat for the PS2 is only 14.98 now.

Whoa!!!! Prince of Persia dropping, I wonder if thats clearance, temporary or a sign of a price drop. I have been waiting for this for the cube.

[Wshakspear]

MGS substance 7.** at wixom, mi target. Had to pick it up

[video_gamer324]

Jedi Outcast and NCAA Football 2003 for XBox both went to 14.98 today. Prince of Persia for Gamecube dropped to 29.99. The DDRMax 2 combo game/mat for the PS2 is only 14.98 now.

Whoa!!!! Prince of Persia dropping, I wonder if thats clearance, temporary or a sign of a price drop. I have been waiting for this for the cube.

Freedom Fighters (PS2) also dropped from $50 to $30. It rang up as "value software," so I'd be willing to bet that not only is the price drop permanent, but we might be able to pick it up for $14.xx or $7.xx in the future.

[JibbaJabba]

Here are a few new ones for the list

Sonic Pinball Party GBA $14.98
Metroid Fusion GBA $14.98
Banjo-Kazooie GBA $12.42 & $7.48 (went to several Targets)


Here are the ones I picked up:

Megman Network GCN $6.58 (bought 4 of these 1 for me the others for friends and I only got charged for 2 of them, the clueless employees strike again :D )
Super Monkey Ball 2 GCN $6.58
Chaos Legion PS2 $9.98
Jedi Outccast GCN $7.48
Dynasty warriors 4 Xbox $7.48

[TheRock88]

Wow, Metroid Fusion for $15? :shock:

[Masterkyo]

Wow.. Metroid Fusion for $15 (hope i can find 1 copy left) :)

[pacifickarma]

I picked up a copy of Xbox Xhibition Volume 3 for $2.48 at my local Target today! (Stockton, CA)

[mtobola]

At the Westwood Village target in West Seattle I picked up Mace Griffin for $4.98. It was the last one. They also have Pikmin(GH), Fusion Frenzy, Mega Man Network Transmission, Great Escape. I think the prices on Fuzion Frenzy, Pikmin and Mega Man Network Transmission are not clearanced priced but am almost positive Great Escape is. Also If anyone wants to find a new FF Tactics(GH) for PS1 they have about 8 of em for $15, not a great deal but a great game.

I also picked up a rain check for rainbow six3 (50.00) with sale price 37.88. Could someone explain how the raincheck thing works for any game seeing as it says Rainbow Six 3 on the reciept.

[grayghost81]

Damn I've been to quite a few Targets and have never found any deals. I have been quite fortunate during the heydays of circuit city, so I guess it all balances out.

Anyway, 300th post. Yay!

[Murcielago77]

hey mto look at the bottom of the rain check and read "CHOOSE A SUBSTITUTE" and then you'll have no problem with it at all

[zzl365]

Reading, Pa Target

Def Jam Vendetta (GC) 13.48
Tony Hawk 3 (XB) 4.38
Mace Griffen (PS2) 4.98
World Series Baseball 2k3 (XB) 14.98
Madden 2003 (XB) 23.98

[ElwoodCuse]

I went to my Target armed with a UPC printout and they all came up as the cheap prices, but the actual games were nowhere to be found. I think the only ones on the list that were actually in the store were Chaos Legion, Clock Tower, and Great Escape. There were many, many empty rows in the video game case so I think they must have cleaned out long ago.

[Repairman Jack]

I went after that Silent Hill 3 deal, and the Target guy harassed me about doing a price check. When I finally essentially twisted his arm, he looked up the price and it was still $30, though it was marked "Discontinued". They wouldn't price match with other Targets, either... :x I had no idea that it was up to the traffic in each Target as to which got what deals... Oh, well. I can find it used for around $20...

[drfrielgood]

Picked up Def Jam Vendetta (GC) for $9.98 and Banjo-Kazooie (GBA) for $7.48 today. Last copies of both. Silent Hill 3 rang up $29.99.

[CameronPhD]

Wreckless: The Yakuza Missions (Xbox) (Was: 19.98 Now: 9.98 )
XIII (PC) (Was: 29.99 Now: 20.98 )
Lords of Everquest (PC) (forgot, but they had red stickers)

[eebuckeye]

Super Monkey Ball Jr. for GBA $4.98

[Pinnacle]

i wish my local target had those gamecube games discounted. They even carry most of the ones yall have listed as clearance.

[Saurus]

Geneva, IL

Aliens vs. Predator [XBox] - $20.98
Midnight Club 2 [Xbox] -$20.98

[GundamFan]

This is my first post! Great site Cheapy D! Anyway I tried to get Chaos Legion for around $10 but it didn't happen. So how do you all get this ridiculous prices?

[JibbaJabba]

I suspect the game had one of those big orange and white stickers on it, correct?
If so then those will never be discounted beyond the price shown on that sticker. It's more less for an item that has been damaged, display model, an item that was found in back and has been out of the system for quite some time, or an item some customer decided to open.
You would have to peel off that sticker so the original upc is revealed and it will ring up for the current clearence price.

[PaulEMoz]

None of the Targets I've been to have had ANY deals worth looking at. Indiana Jones for $29.98? I don't think so. And that was on the clearance shelf. Are you people finding these games in the clearance shelves, behind the glass or where? I'm dying to find a couple of bargains, especially Super Monkey Ball 2 (and the missus would love DDR2 with the pad! :D ).

[Han Solo]

Toledo, OH
Chaos Legion 9.98
Kya Dark Lineage 7.48
Arc the Lad 7.48
Mace Griffen 4.98

Rossford, OH
Mega Man Network Trans 7.48
Unlimited Saga scanned at 0.00 <---cashier did not know what the price was so she charged me 7.48

I'm dying to find a couple of bargains, especially Super Monkey Ball 2 (and the missus would love DDR2 with the pad! :D ).

When you say Indiana Jones for $29.98, was that the sticker price? Pretty much all of the games that people have been finding have been marked higher than what they get them for. You need to either scan the game yourself or get a price check from an employee. The real price is what comes up when you scan it.

[jlindsay26]

Got Mario Party 4 for $21 last one, not the greatest deal but still pretty good

[Indiana]

Got Mario Party 4 for $21 last one, not the greatest deal but still pretty good

Actually that is the best price I have ever seen for that game.

[Uncle Fuz]

Got Disney Skate Adventure for $7.48. I was expecting the $15 someone else has posted earlier, but it came out cheaper. Oh well, all the better!

[terribledeli]

Tony Hawk 3 for xbox is down to $4.98 now.
Indiana Jones and Jedi Knight II are marked to $14.98
Tetis Worlds (online version) was $9.98

Lake Charles, LA

[Legolas813]

anybody know if fuzion frenzy for $4.98 is going to be universal among all targets, because my Super Target in Orlando still has it for $19.98?!? :cry:

[Masterkyo]

I did checkout SUPER Target Price too... they Price is PRETTY HIGH :(

Try to get PSONE w/ LCD Screen but SUPER TARGET have it for $104.99 :(

Ohhhh well ;)

It was the same price at the (regular) Target (Hickory Hollow, Nashville, TN) I was at last night (surprised they had one at all). They also had the following:

Chaos Legion (PS2) $9.98 (I ended up not getting it, bad reviews)

DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball (Xbox) $14.98 (I already have the game, so I left it there (3 copies)). I think this is a really good find, because if it is $14.98 at my Targets, it is probably $7.48 or less at every other Target in the country (and possibly Canada :wink: ).

Action Replay (GC) $14.98. I bought this. It was the only one I saw, the plastic packaging was pretty ripped up, and I don't even know if it was a good deal (again, $14.98 at my Targets usually equals $7.48 at others, so I know it wasn't a fantastic deal, but hopefully it wasn't too bad), but I bought it. I pretty much never use cheats, but I was hoping it could be used to access some Animal Crossing stuff (I haven't even opened AC yet, for fear that it would take up too much of my time, and I've had it about a year I think).

[dvdman]

:lol: I got "Indiana Jones" for $7.48 at my Target last week!!!!!!!

[Masterkyo]

I seen Indian Jones at SUPER Target too but is still $29.99 instead $7.48 :(

[PaulEMoz]

You need to either scan the game yourself or get a price check from an employee. The real price is what comes up when you scan it.

It was the red sticker price. It had the original price, and the Clearance price.

None of my Target stores have anything at all on the clearance shelves, bar PS1 games and a few old PC games, and I look there all the time. They have the occasional reduction behind the glass ($37.88 instead of $49.99), but that's yer lot.

Even if it is the red sticker price, did you scan it? DO NOT go by any sticker price. Some of them are correct, but the majority of the ones I have gotten with the red sticker have been even less. ex: Kya, X2:Wolverine's revenge, and Wolfenstein(ps2) were all marked with a red sticker for $20.98. I got Kya and X2 for $7.48 each and Wolfenstein for $6.58

[JCDenton]

At the Target in San Marcos, TX I got

Clock Tower 3- $4.38
Chaos Legio- $8.78
Auto Modellista- $6.58

They have one Auto Modellista left and a few PC games.

Nah, I didn't scan them. Like I said, there really hasn't been anything on any of the shelves anyway. I don't want any of the PS1 games, nor do I want Wolverine's Revenge or Icewind Dale II on the PC, and that's really all I've seen in any of the Target stores I've been in.

I would like some cheese with my whine though! :)

[WSkywalker]

I found ESPN NHL Hockey for PS2 for $6.98 at a Target in Charlotte, NC.

[thatstoobad]

over the past two days, i have been to 6 targets in the area.

- the one in chesterfield (23 and gratiot) had nothing.

- the one by me (gratiot and 14 or so in clinton township) i picked up Clock Tower 3 for $4.98 and Arc the Lad for $7.48. i got the last Arc the Lad, but a few Clock Towers were left.

- the one at 11 and dequindre had nothing special.

- target at about 14 and john r didn't have anything really.

- the one at 15 and van dyke had mega man network transmission for $6.48. quite a few copies left. they also had a ton of Fuzion Frenzys, which i passed, but i may pick in in preparation for an xbox. there were also a lot of Silent Hill 3s sitting outside of the case, however they were not discounted.

- the one on hall road (M-59) had the mega man game, but didn't really notice anything else.

using the printed out bar code sheet, i learned that ESPN NHL Hockey for ps2 was down to $6.98 or so, and was really hoping to run across it, but the targets failed me. which brings me to this:

I found ESPN NHL Hockey for PS2 for $6.98 at a Target in Charlotte, NC.

if someone can pick up an extra copy of this game, i will reimburse them for the cost, pay for shipping, and throw in a few extra dollars for the effort. or, if one prefers, i will trade a game for it (preferably a target clearance one). if you (you = anyone that cares) can help me out, it would be pretty neat. thanks.

[JCDenton]

My Target doesn't have ESPN Hockey, but I am interested in Mega Man Network Transmission if you're able to pick an extra one up.

Cedar Park, TX Super Target:

Midnight Club II Xbox - 20.98 (cheapest I've fouind this game around here)

[dr_evil99]

I NEVER seem to be able to find ANY of these deals at the Target stores near my house. I have 4 target stores within 20 minutes of my house.

Does anyone know of any Targets in Connecticut or in Orange County, NY where these deals are available?

Are these prices for the games behind the glass case?

The "clearance" games outside the glass case also seem to be tagged at around $20.

Will the clearance games marked for $20 or even the games behind the glass case scan at far less than their marked prices (like the prices listed in this thread)?

Sorry for the newbie questions but I'd love to take advantage of these deals.......Thanks to all who can help out a fellow CAGer....

[Wshakspear]

I went after that Silent Hill 3 deal, and the Target guy harassed me about doing a price check. When I finally essentially twisted his arm, he looked up the price and it was still $30, though it was marked "Discontinued". They wouldn't price match with other Targets, either... :x I had no idea that it was up to the traffic in each Target as to which got what deals... Oh, well. I can find it used for around $20...

I suspect the game had one of those big orange and white stickers on it, correct?
If so then those will never be discounted beyond the price shown on that sticker. It's more less for an item that has been damaged, display model, an item that was found in back and has been out of the system for quite some time, or an item some customer decided to open.
You would have to peel off that sticker so the original upc is revealed and it will ring up for the current clearence price.

Yesterday i had found Armed and Dangerous (xbox)with one of those oversized, red with white striped tags for 29.98. Considering i was at best buy and it had dropped to $30, it makes me wonder if they just ran out of tickets

I don't know about Orange County, but I did try the Target in White Plains. In the clearance racks they had a lot of PH/GH games at $20, some truly crappy games for PS2 for $14.99 (I can't remember the titles, though), and that was about it. Some of the games that people have been talking about may have been in the glass cases, but when I glanced over them I didn't see any that were clearly marked down. Probably the best thing to do is what is described on the first page of this thread...print out the barcodes of the games you're interested in, check the prices using the scanner at the store, and then see if they have any of them...

yes and no. As the clearence price varies from store to store.
Always scan the game no matter what it is marked.

[Theenternal]

Gainesville, Fl

Target here has many games in the discount section, however they all ring up Value Game when I scan them. They are all 19.99-29.99 in price. Depressing.... At least i got in on the CC clearance

[nintendokid]

If anyone can get Arc the Lad TOS for those insane prices that you guys have been posting, I'm willing to pay $15 (total) for one. Just don't waste your time and go get one yet. Be sure your local Target has copies for sure and PM me first. Thanks in advance.

[Excalibur]

I scored Arc the Lad: TOS and Castle Wolfenstein (PS2) for $7.50 each today. This was at the North Druid Hills Greatland Target in Atlanta, GA.

[Masterkyo]

Finally ;)

Pickup "Chaos Legion" today $10.XX after taxes :)

[-Never4ever-]

ug just got back from the Buffalo NY target and they had new clearence games:

Enter The Matrix (XBOX) was marked down to 14.99 buch of copies

Midtown Maddness 3 (xbox) also down to 14.99, two copies left.

Aliens Vs Preditor (XBOX) this too, was 14.99 one copy.


What's interesting to note is that the games were in the electronics clearence section, and were the clearence section was previously, theirs a lot of newer games like Soul Caliber 2, Freedom Fighters, Prince of Persia, etc, but they weren't clearence, according to a store clerk their value "titles". He also said not to be surprised if they dropped to clearence prices soon.

[cougartai]

I picked up two copies of ESPN NHL Hockey for 7.50 at the Marbach Target in San Antonio. There are still about 5 copies left there.

I've been shopping around the Targets here and haven't really found anything. I"ve missed on the DDR 2 Pad thing. I've seen a lot of Mace Griffins though around all the Targets here in San Antonio as well as a lot of Kya: Dark Lineage copies.

if anyone wants one, I'd be willing to trade one for Arc the Lad, DDR2 with pad or DOA Extreme Beach Volleyball if anyone has any extra copies. I"ll pay the difference on the discounted price.

Last copies of both. That store rarely has these cheap deals. The clearance section is mostly crap. I just grabbed a stack and started scanning. I had some miserable middle-aged woman come up and give me dirty looks, so I just took my sweet-old time. Like there's not a million scanners in Target.

Good times!

Good stuff dude. Amplitude is one heck of a game, so addicting in its own way. At first i didn't get it, then i get the beat down and pretty soon, its addicting. Great solo gameplay.

[misbitski]

Yeah, Amplitude is definitely an underappreciated gem. Americans just don't buy rhythm/music games unless it had a Tom Clancy label. I'm amazed it was only $5.

Tom Clancy's Music Jam Squad 3 Online...it'll sell millions.

[Wario64]

Man I would be all over Amplitude for $5. Lucky you :P

[Mr_hockey66]

If everyone would kust read the list we would have some many less posts to go through. If it been posyed for 7.48 why post it a hundred times more, Yes we know arc the lad/ mace griffin/ etc is 4.98 Please only new prices. It'll help this thread a lot more!

I disagree, most post the area target they found the deals at which is helpful for many. Although a "list" is helpful it also helps to have people list what they are getting deals for, even if posted before, especially since prices are changing constantly.

[Mr_hockey66]

yes post new deals. These last posts don't even have a location. Thats just bragging! Tell NEW prices and OR location. Thats what we need not a hundred ha ha ha i got this game a four for my friends! Who care how many you bought! thats great! glad you got a good deal but tell us WHERE you got it. Got It!




This sounds wors then I ment it! sorry! I just need some good deals man. I can't find jack. I have read about arc and mace griffion a million times :evil:

[lurknomore]

Come on. Although I agree with you Mr_hockey66, let's not scare off all of the posters. Your post to scold them took as much time as my post directed to you....a wasted cycle.

[Mr Peanut]

I was hoping to find new deals since I see a lot of $4.98's posted here. My closest Target and found Fusion Frenzy. To my dissapointment, it scanned at $19.99.

The other games were just greatest hits games.

[hohndog]

There is a Target 3 miles from my house that not only has nothing in stock, but also has higher prices than the prices listed in this tread. A new Target opened about 15 miles from my house. This new Target has lots of games and at the prices mentioned here. $4.98 Fusion Frenzy for example. And no, the crappy Target 3 miles from my house WILL NOT price match the new target 15 miles away. This is a perfect example at how much the prices vary from store to store.

[guessed]

Got Mario Party 4 for $21 last one, not the greatest deal but still pretty good

I just came back from a long night of spending more than I should (I had intended to spend 4 cents, but spent over $100 instead, I haven't done the tally yet.

I was surprised to find the clearance rack at one of my local Targets stuffed with Mario Party 4. There were, in fact, over 50 copies, priced at $14.98 each. I scored one.

If anyone lives in the Nashville area, they are at the Cool Springs Target.

[SteveMcQ]

Mr_hockey does have a point.

Please remember to post the location of where you got it. There's so many posting just prices.

[ElwoodCuse]

Wow. My one Target had nothing except Chaos Legion and Clock Tower. Absolutely nothing outside the case.

But I go about 20 minutes to the other one and score MGS2 Substance for $7.48 and Midtown Madness 3 for $14.98. MM3 was outside the case in a pretty nice clearance shelf, but MGS2 was inside. I asked the clerk to check the price and when it came up he looked at me funny and asked "How old is this game?"

EDIT: Dickson City, PA. Plenty of copies of both games I bought.

These were on the endcap opposite the right wall of the store past the accessory aisle. There was a bunch of stuff in that section, those were the two only two titles I remember. I'm guessing they just did markdowns there in the last day or two as the shelf was full of about twenty games. Sorry I'm not more help.

Edit: For anyone looking they did have at least four copies of NBA Street vol. 2 for PS2 at the $19.99 price point in the locked case. All other stores I've been to have been sold out.

I went looking to buy chaos Legion last night at target and much to my shock, not only did they have it correctly priced at 998, but they had a printed chaos Legion price tag with the words "Sony value software" on it.

This was behind the glass case at the Princeton location and it was out of stock.

It just about broke my heart when I found out it wasn't there, because I wanted this for a while :-(

Still, the fact that had a rather complex pricetag leads me to believe this may be the new nationwide price for targets everywhere -- if not all stores everywhere.

Perhaps there's a rerelease coming soon?

Damn why is ESPN NHL so cheap for a 2004 sports game? It got good reviews as all VC games usually do.

Because too many gamers refuse to buy a sports game that doesn't say EA Sports on the case and ESPN sold horribly compared to NHL.

Still, the fact that had a rather complex pricetag leads me to believe this may be the new nationwide price for targets everywhere -- if not all stores everywhere.

I don't know. Fuzion Frenzy (Xbox) is $5 at some Target's, $20 at most, but the one I found it at for $5 actually had it behind the glass with a pricetag indicating it was $5. (I have actually scanned the game at two or so other Targets and it was $20.) The guy who got it out for me scanned it himself to make sure the price was right, LOL. I think the pricetag thing is just something that varies by store, just like the actual markdown itself.

[Puzznic]

While its not actually on Clearance, my Target had Prince of Persia for Gamecube marked down to $29.99. Very tempting

[magilacudy]

BigDirty, do you check the XBox games too? Or were there just not any on clearance.

BigDirty, do you check the XBox games too? Or were there just not any on clearance.

When there's stuff on clearance, I'll tell you, but the P-Ton location has been ransacked and then picked over... nothing for the box, and nothing of worthy note for the cube either (matrix is still 21)

Yes, they do. Mine came free when I bought the portable screen a couple years ago. The life on the battery is not the greatest, giving you around 2 hours or so...just long enough for a short plane ride. The battery looks likes a thin tray which the PSOne sits on, BTW.

I work at a Target, in the Electronics Dept. I put out the new releases on Tuesdays, as well as stock the Electronics on truck days which are M, W, and F. There are many games, and software on clearance currently at my store. A lot of PS1 games, and Need for Speed Underground is like 20 something. I can send games to people who request them and send payment for clearance items they may want me to look for, just ask, I don't mind. Also, did anybody take advantage of my Cody Banks 50% off any DVD post? I know that I sure did. 8)

San Jose, CA

NBA Street Vol 2 (PS2) - $19.99

Another thing I saw was NHL 2004 for PS2 was not on the racks but on the ground behind the glass case. I thought it would be on clearance since I found most games that were on sale were also on the ground. So I asked the clerk to ring it up but it was still $49.99. There were tons of copies too, oh well.

if possible, you should try and give us any news on any new clearance games, at your store at least. then we can cross our fingers and hope for the best at the ones in our own respective areas.

i don't know if target actually fills anyone (being the employees) in on the markdowns, though, since usually i get massive "huh?" when i buy a clearance game.

[badmrfrosty20]

Any news on target deals in Washington? The one in Tukwila only has Kya for $7.48.

[equest943]

Man. My freaking Target goes about as low as dpatel's does. Midnight Club 2 Xbox for $20.98 and Def Jam Vendetta and Mortal Kombat: DA for $13 each. Not bad but I wish I could find the prices you all are posting which are usually $3-7 less. I usually have to wait a few weeks for them to go down in price again. Kinda sucks but oh well.

[Vampyre]

Got ape escape 2 for 4.38 at the cedar park sotre in texas.

They really did not have anything else there except riding spirits for $13

[dpatel]

Is there any specific time to look for these games? I have heard that tues evening is when target usually finishes marking down all of their prices.

Does it matter on time of year?

[blackandbluehero]

I finally got mine, for $75, that's 50% off 149! I'm so glad I waited, scoped out which store had a couple left for them to go lower this week. Thank you so much to the person in this forum who mentioned that they were on clearance. YAAY!

[JohnnyDrama]

Has anyone had a situation where you bring in a barcode to scan and it comes up with the clearance price, but when you get the game and the cashier scans it at the register, the original higher price comes up? I haven't really checked my local target stores for these deals, and I just wanted to ask if something like this ever happened to anyone.

As I understand it, the shelf scanners are tied to the same database as the checkout scanners. The only issue one might have is if it scans zero, and you have them look up the price in the department, and then check out up front. It happened to me the other day. She was about to key in the price on the tag when I stopped her and told her they had checked it back in electronics, so she just keyed in the price I gave her.

So, unless the self scanner says 0, the price of the barcode you scan at the scanner should be the same at the register? Thanks for clearing it up. Although I haven't really checked my Target for deals, I did scan a barcode for Xenosaga once, and it came up at 0.

[Wshakspear]

stuff.

The handhelds "ask" the main database what the price is for the product. The registers and the pole scanners only check that exact stores prices, which could have been zerod out.

If you ever find a Sonic Mega Collection for cheap on the clearence let me know. I have been really wanting this game..

[Ebraum]

Viewtiful Joe price cut at Target now $29.99

[Pinnacle]

Has anyone found Animal crossing cheap?

[Vampyre]

saw 2 at the cedar park target but they where not marked down.

[drfrielgood]

Did you price check the Animal Crossing games? Target has been clearancing them out...

[TheRock88]

Which game did you get checked? NHL 2004 (EA) or ESPN NHL (Sega)?
EA is'nt on clearence Sega is.


I know ESPN is on sale but I saw tons of NHL 2004 not on the racks and thought it was on clearance.

Nope, they didnt have any that I saw at the one (PS2 and Xbox) near Eastridge Mall.

Holy carp, someone who actually visits a Target in my time zone! I might have to see if they still have this one, I demo'ed FF and it was pretty cool. [I work about seven minutes away from this Target.]

[laparka72]

At my Target in Woodland Hills CA they had a few kiddy oriented GBA games for 14.99 BUT they also had Metroid Fusion!
Check out the GBA games if you have em at your Target, you might find some buys!

[magilacudy]

laparka, you got Metroid Fusion for $14.99? Or am I reading your post wrong

[mrtoki]

laparka, did u see arc the lad or any other cheap rpg's there?

[Masterkyo]

I snag the last copy "Arc the Lad" $7.48 not bad deal compare to $39.99 every where ;)

[Masterkyo]

ALso, Mega Man Network (GC) $6.48 from $7.48

[johnp]

Where: Aventura Target (Miami)
PSONE LCD Combo has finally dropped to $74.98 - as of 3-4-04 they still have 2 units left.

Also, there were 3-5 copies of (GC) MegaMan Network left for $6.48 and a whole lot of (GC) Harry Potter "Chamber of Secrets" in case anybody is looking for these games around the Miami area.

[Dead of Knight]

N. Attleboro, MA: Absolutely NOTHING. :(

[jt2k3]

DoA:: The North Attelboro Target never has anything good.. Except thats where I found Amplitude for like $4.98 once. The target in smithfield (where my KB is) has been pretty good lately.

[Ugamer_X]

The Valencia Target had Alien vs. Predator: Extinction for the Xbox for 14.98. There was only one copy so I hid it just in case anyone here wants it.

[Atreadon]

If anyone sees SOCOM (with headset) for cheap at their Target, I'd be interested in working out a way with him or her to obtain it.

[lyric706]

Picked up two Arc the Lads for 7.48, Kya for 6.48, Metal Gear Solid for XBOX for 7.48 and Bloodrayne for XBOX for 7.48. I'm interested in trading one of my Arc the Lads for ESPN Hockey. Let me know!

[bradr]

I went to Target last night (Potomac Yards in NoVA). They had Batman Dark Tomorrow for GC and Enclave for XBox. Both were not in the scanner. So I went to the CS counter and asked them. WARNING: Never go to the CS counter to ask. The woman behind there took the games, ran off somewhere (probably to the mgr on duty) and came back with some arbitrary price for the two (both $15.99 a piece), which I know is BS. They probably gunned at $3 or something but the mgr made some crazy price up. The funny thing was is that Enclave had the $12.99 Target corner sticker on it. I told her I'd think about it and I had more shopping to do (was going to ask someone with a gun) but she told me that she had to hold the games there and I had to pay for them there. I left. I can't believe some of the stuff they pull there.

[pachi]

they did the SAME thing at my Target with a game, bradr, lloks like we both learned a lesson. :)

[drsuper23]

I picked up the following games at the Target in Aventura FL.

PS2: ESPN NHL Hockey $6.58
Xbox: Hulk $7.48
GameCube: 4x4 EVO 2 $3.24
The Scorpion King $3.24
Megaman Network Transmission $6.58
PS One Combo $74.98

There were a bunch of other clearance games for very cheap but after finding this thread I can't justify spending more than $10 for a game at target. Besides these other games weren't that good.

[Advocatus]

Has anyone seen Time Splitters 2 on clearance? Do you think that game is old enough to warrant clearance? should I make the haul to target to check?

thanks!

[drsuper23]

What I do is take as many of those old games that I can find and scan them to check the prices.
As long as they are out of the case you can take them out of the electronics department. Using this method I've been able to find a lot of great deals.

[Hipoccolos]

*sigh* Oregon sucks. None of the Target deals are ever at any of the stores here. =\

[JibbaJabba]

Which version? I know the Xbox version was long clearnced off 4-5 months back, and the cube version about 2-3 months back.

Just ask for a price check.

[The_Continental]

Starsky and Hutch, Wolfenstein, and Auto modellista (ps2) rang up for $0.00 tonight, but the damn clerk refused to "sell" them to me, said it was a computer error. (probably was)

I had to leave empty handed, but they're still in the GH bin if anyone else wants to give it a try.

Same thing happened to me today with 4 of the games that I had bought. Instead of letting them ring it up and tell you the they can't sell the gamesm, have someone with a price gun scan it for you and tell the cashier the last price that was on the system.

[msdmoney]

If the games come up at 0 dollars I would try bringing something else cheap up to a register with a gullible looking or very busy employee. Chances are they will ring it all up, give you the total, and let you go like a robot. Just speculating.

[JohnnyDrama]

Has anyone found any deals in the Target stores in the Daly City/Colma area? I'm going tomorrow, but I just wanted to know of any deals I can look forward to.

[Murcielago77]

was ESPN in the glass or on the shelves?

[m_que01]

*sigh* Oregon sucks. None of the Target deals are ever at any of the stores here. =\

Sorry I guess it was me that hit the Oregon Targets first. :lol:

[Monsta Mack]

Probably and old clearenced title, but Mafia found Chaos Legion for $10.xx.

[DigitalSpace]

*sigh* Oregon sucks. None of the Target deals are ever at any of the stores here. =\

I checked the Mall 205 and Clackamas Promenade Target stores in Portland a couple weeks ago. I found some clearanced PSX deals at the Mall 205 store (nothing too amazing, a bunch of copies of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone for $14.99, and 1 copy of Driver 2 GH for $12, which I assume is gone now) and nothing at the Clackamas store. So I'm assuming that there's still nothing special. I'll check again soon though, since I try to look everywhere for deals, and also, I'm in the Mall 205 and Clackamas area every now and then.

Sorry I guess it was me that hit the Oregon Targets first. :lol:

Out of curiosity, did you find anything? I'm wondering if we ever had any of those deals here.

[Darkstar]

Probably and old clearenced title, but Mafia found Chaos Legion for $10.xx.

Both for PS2, right? Where did you find them?

[Murcielago77]

can someone please answer my question about espn hockey plz

[Gojtron]

Games that ring for 0.00, have an employe get their scanner, they can find the price using either NOP, NOF, or UPCS.

[drsuper23]

I found ESPN outside of the glass case. It was where they keep all of the GH that they have.

[magus83]

Quick question. Theres finally going to be a target opening up near me towards the end of the summer. Will they carry any of these clearance games or would I have to wait until the games they have in stock to go on clearance? If so that would really suck.

[TwoHeadedBoy]

You'd probably have to wait.

Just came from Target on Jones Rd (Houston, TX) and the clearance racks had about 10,000 copies of "Bowling" and a bunch of PC games. That was it. I saw a non-PC Luigi's Mansion for 16.88 (not in the clearance rack though) and bought it in the blink of an eye. They had a lot of non-PC Metroids too. They were still $30 though.

[Excalibur]

Klonoa: Empire of Dreams (GBA) is $14.98 at the North Druid Hills Greatland Target in Atlanta, GA.

[Masterkyo]

Excalibur

KLONOA: Empire of Dreams is Good game but is kinda RARE to find single copy !!! ( I remember I pickup my NEW copy at Funcoland (Know ass Gamestop Now) 2 yrs ago for $10.XX

Seem like this Target Don't have any CHEAP ass games lately

Best.Typo.Ever

[wubb]

Don't know if this has been discussed, but one of my local Targets actually RAISED the price of a clearance game. I picked up Fuzion Frenzy for a buddy a few weeks ago for $5. Was back in that same Target yesterday and gave FF a scan along with a bunch of other games I was checking and much to my surprise it was back up to $20!? Does this happen a lot with Target clearance items? I was pretty surprised.

[lurknomore]

Same here. FF was the first clearance game that I've found to bump back up to a pre-existing price.

[bradr]

Crash's Huge Adventure for GBA was $4.98 at my Target (last summer). This weekend, it was $14.99. I guess it happens more frequently than you think. Also Blinx was $4.98, now it's $19.99 (I know it's still cheap at some Targets). It's all YMMV.

It wont be a rush of clearance games, but that does start very soon after a store opens up. Some games in thier plan-o-gram will be clearance almsot the day they open up, thier stores evolve so much there's always clearance

Does this happen a lot with Target clearance items? I was pretty surprised.

This has to do with the fact that it is not the GAME TITLE that is clearanced, but rather the SKU associated with the product on the shelf space.

Target does not view games by "title," but as a "product on its shelf with a limited lifespan." If the lifespan of a product is exceeded, the product goes to clearance. When the next shipment of stock comes in, it is possible the buyers have purchased new stock of an already clearanced item. As the sale of the item is not based on the actually name of the item, but rather its existence relative to its shelfspace and how long it has been there, it goes up as a new item at the price assigned by the buyers, in this case the full price.

Same thing happens in the toy section occasionally.

[wubb]

donssword, so you're saying that when/if they get in a new shipment it basically resets the products lifespan time to 0?

[JibbaJabba]

I think the main reason the price went to $20 is that the game was made a Platinum Hits tilte.
As a couple of my Targets have the game in the new platinum cases.

[daphatty]

I just picked up a copy of Command & Conquer: Red Strike which is Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge (expansion) for $7.48 @ the Target in Potomac Yard Shopping Center in Alexandria VA. It may have been the last copy but I noticed it wasn't on the correct shelf. I found it next to the clearance console games whereas the PC clearance games are in a different part of the store. (Of course I didn't bother to check that part of the store.) The clearance tag on the box says $10.48 but I scanned it just for the heck of it and it was 3 dollars less! YMMV.

[Soft Nugget]

hitman 12.48 for gamecube

yup. Just recently(at two targets) saw a crapload of neverwinter nights titles that werent there a couple weeks ago. Seems like they caught on that it was 7.84 at one point and hid em.

[goldengraham]

Yeah, I got the last copy of Neverwinter Nights in the clearance section for $7.48. (Pinole, Bay Area, CA) Also picked up a Zelda Collectors Disk for $0.01.

[Wshakspear]

Do you happen to remember what type of heroclix? Marvel/dc and which expansion?

[swetooth9]

i know this may be a stupid question...but does this barcode trick/thing work with other stores that have games locked up in a glass case such as:
k-mart and wal-mart? thanks

[E-Z-B]

Yes, it will, but good luck finding a clearance game at wal-mart or k-mart. IF you do, it'll likely be a YMMV deal.
