Yeesh, a few cars? I've been smoking for almost 8 years (started 10 years ago, quit for 2 years, and started again), and I'm pretty sure I haven't hit $1000 yet.

Was able to pick up Fallout 3 for 9.98... Glad i waited a week and saved that extra $10... No sign of RE5... :(

It depends on how much you smoke. A pack a day (at 3 bucks a pack) for a year would be 1095 bucks spent on cigarettes in one year. Obviously these numbers can be altered based on how much you smoke and the cost of a pack of cigarettes.

Anyway, I went to one Target today and all they had was Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for 41.XX and Fight Night Round 4 for 27.XX. And a bunch of DS games that I didn't look at.

It depends on the brand and how much you're smoking though. For a long while I was smoking the 'name brands'(Marlboro, Newport, etc), then I went to the 'sub' brands and just before I quit I was considering rolling my friggin' own.

So yeah, the 'quality' of the cigs definitely contributes to the cost, but I definitely did wayyyyy miscalculate on that math there. My apologies, but I'm running on like 2 hours sleep for the last 2-3 days.

Here are some DPCI numbers missing from the op.

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon [207-02-0030]
Battalion Wars 2 [207-26-0074]
Wii Music [207-26-0295]
Lego Rock Band 360 [207-22-0434]

Does any one have the DPCI numbers for the 360 versions of Tekken 6 and Fight Night Round 4?

Madden NFL 10 demo free with purchase of Head & Shoulders - as seen at Target... lol

^^What kind of message is that trying to convey?

Well, down in So-Cal, I came across Street Fighter IV at $5.04 and I also saw Batman AA hit 24.xx. There was 1 copy of SF and 4 of Batman.

The Scribblenauts and Halo Wars game guides were at the $4.98 price point.

Th Epson printer/copier/scanner pretty uch sold out at the 29.xx price. The store where I picked it up at, on 2/08, had about 10 of them and when I returned last week they were all gone. I asked an employee to check if they showed up in stock and he confirmed they were all sold out.

On a related note, is anyone else having trouble using the inventory checker for Target.com (the link from the first post)? Every time I use it I get a message that the system is down.

saw the ds walking "game" for $12.50.

Hit up three Targets and came out very disappointed:

Target on 57th Ave, South FL:
- Fallout 3(both) $19.98
- Bakugan(360) - $xx.xx

Super Target on Miramar Pwky
- Fallout 3(360) - $19.98
- Shaun White(360) $3.xx
- Beatles Rock Band(360, whole set) $124.xx

Target on Pines:
- RE5(360) $19.xx
- Midnight club $14.xx
- Transformers 2 (360) $27.xx

oooooo man I would gladly take the shaun white game plus whatever shipping costs if you could get it. Went to my target today as well and was disappointed as well......... RE5 STILL $19.98 been at that price for 3 weeks!!

Nothing drop this week :(

Naruto: CONR 3 (wii) $20
IL: Bird of Prey (PS3) $21
Sonic: Black Knight (wii) $15
Guitar Hero: Metalic (PS3) $20
Resident Evil 5 (360) $20
Hawk (PS3) $20

hope everything i wanted drop down 50% off next week

Not much at Fenton, MO Target this week. Wired 360 controllers for $27.xx and LEGO Rock Band for $24.xx are the highlights. Also a bunch of PC copies of RE 5 and Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Yeah that was originally posted on consumerist.com 2 weeks ago. The reason this combo exists is Troy Polamalu endorses both Madden and Head and Shoulders.

That's hilarious. I want it.

If I wasn't bald, I might buy that just because.

I'll definitely be on the lookout for Fallout 3 for that price! Thanks!

I've been off cigs for about 6 months or so now, and I still think about lighting up every now and again. I still smoke cigars off and on, but I'm thinking of tossing those now, too.

Quitting smoking is quite hard when you love it so much.

anyone is so cal have any luck finding gta episodes marked down? I just checked my local target but they only had one and it was full price. I'm really hoping to find this on the cheap even though I know t is very ymmv

If you want the PS3 version, you can get the Game Of The Year edition for $29.97 currently at Sears. It has all of the expansion/DLC packs.

It wasn't so much that I loved it, it was an addiction, one that admittedly is tough for many to break. My one ex gf who I just bumped into a couple of days ago stopped smoking back in October and said the same thing about wanting to light up every now and then, but she's somehow fought off that urge.

She even does like I do when in the local casino and people blow a smoke cloud in her direction(fans with her hands lol). For how pissed off she used to get with me over when I would do that, she's ending up just like me.
