Target Boxing Week sale

[Lustaf]

$15 for some great 3DS games and the biggest shocker to me is 3D World at $35 new.

Just got back from Guelph Line Target in Burlington.

Mario & Luigi Dream Team was NOT marked down to 15$

I asked one of the managers and they said the flyer only shows generic 3DS games and they get the final price markdowns before Boxing Day. However, I did get Super Mario 3D Land for 15$ even though it wasn't advertised.

When it scans in at not 15 dollars (35 in this case) just use the Scanning Code Policy to get it for 5!
I was planning on doing that but unfortunately my mario and luigi dream team ended up scanning for 15 so that's what I got it for.

The guy was clearly bsing you. I went in to Target to get my Mario Kart 7 price adjusted, and the women knew right away what I was doing. I even saw the 4 games they advertised being $15 each here.

Well, I really don't care regardless. Wasn't planning on getting Dream Team anyway.

This better not have been any of you guys. He bought 15 iPads, every Luigi's Mansion as well as all the stock of the other 3DS games. I was there at 7:30 after hitting Futureshop and Walmart. I managed to get a copy of New Super Mario Brothers 2 from Target as well as Super Mario 3D World. I'm pissed that Target didn't have a purchase limit.

 

[VetraX]

I would've called him out for that... and probably for looking like a girl from behind. Do you live in Toronto? I hear it's pretty bad in the GTA thanks to RFD. But yeah, Target definitely should've had a limit, like, one per customer.

 

[TeaBisquit]

Well I just knew that I couldn't say anything without him just flashing a killer troll face at me. This was in St. Cathartines.

I don't understand, retailers should know that resellers would take advantage of this. Why not limit their purchases at least?

 

[stewbacca]

Just price matched dream team to BB and got their extra 10% off too! Dream team for 12.50 is a steal

Because they don't care if resellers take advantage of it. The stores are making the sales regardless.

That is still working? Hmm... I really want to get Mario Kart 7 and Luigi's mansion as I only got dream team and 3d land

Meanwhile, people who actually want these games lose out to these scalpers.

Oh absolutely, it sucks for the average consumer. But it doesn't suck for the retailers, so there's no market pressure for them to change it.
