Target coupon- 5 dollars off 25 dollar purchase

This thread is for clearance-- not for sale items, or raincheck "scams." Price reductions for clearance seem to happen on Monday, although not every Monday. Target often donates its older clearance titles to Goodwill stores, so keep that in mind when you're trying to find items. Some info from BigDirty: "Further reduction is possible when a game's price ends with 8 cents. However, when it ends in 4 cents it will NOT drop anymore. If it ends in 9 cents, it's just on sale or on a non-clearance reduction."

When posting deals, please include city, state, store, game, system and price. For example:
Mesa, AZ Power Road at Superstition Springs
Super Soup Soufflé, Xbox 360, $4.98

Special thanks to Mephitical for this great tool for locating clearance titles which is located here. Go to Amazon or Target to find the item's ASIN. When you find it, replace "B000O3IS48" in the URL with your item's ASIN. This will take you to a page asking you for your zip code. Type in your zip code and click enter-- this will display a list of local stores and whether or not they have your item in stock. YMMV on it working properly.

Here is a fairly easy way to check if your local Target has the games on clearance-- often games will not be tagged correctly. Thanks to BigDirty for this:
1) Go to Half.com or a similar site. Search for the game to locate its UPC code number. It's in the gray box underneath the box art graphic.
2) Go to UPC Data ,Milk.com , or UPC Database and enter the code so you can print out the UPC. Go to Target and use the price scanners to scan your printouts.

Remember, the lowest known price will be posted since the listed item could be higher or lower at your store. Here are the current deals:

[quote name='onikage']Did anyone check Over G Fighters today? It's been stuck at $14.xx for a few weeks now.[/quote]Unless your target does markdowns that go to more than 75% that's the final price before salvage since the before clearance price was 59.99.
 
[quote name='velvet396']anyone check Stuntman for 360 for a drop?[/quote]

It was still $24.xx at the Mall 205 store in Portland.

Checked last night and almost every mention was on the shelf EXCEPT FOR the game I wanted - Untold Legends for the PS3. Oh well...
 
I made a casual stop by my Target the other day and they didn't have much to offer, but when I passed by the PC section, they had a bunch of Guild Wars: Eye of the North games marked at $9.98 with that red sticker on them. I snagged me a copy. I was suprised to see the game at that price considering it's recent. Lucky me.
 
[quote name='EvlAsh']Lucky you. The only Target that had Madden 07 refused to sell it to me because "it was not in their system, there for it should not have been on the floor." Then the manager grabbed the rest of the copies on the shelf and took them to the back. :whistle2:([/quote]

That's happened to me several times at a number of different Targets. This does appear to be their overall policy.

In some cases, they double-checked against the price gun (which does show it's in their system) --- then they sell to me at that price. In one extreme example, I walked away, but later on the clerk found me in the store (yes, he tracked me down) and said he could sell me the game for $2.48; this game was Freedom Fighters for PC. :)
 
A couple of updates at my Target today (1-8-08). I went to pick of one of the many Trauma Center games they had, but they were all gone when I returned. Lame

Super Swing Golf (Wii) - 19.98
The Bigs (PS3) - 24.98

edit: Forgot to mention the stand alone Golden Tee golf game that was 27.98. The list price was 39.98 and it is actually cheaper on Targets website but maybe it will be subject to future price cuts
 
Got lucky today and found copies of Ghost Squad at my Target today. Guy rang it up in electronics and it wasn't in the system, so he offered it to me for $15. I took it since it didn't seem like a bad deal, and I've been hunting for it, but was it worth it for that? I was almost debating on going back and trying to get someone to re-ring another copy lower and return the one I have. :p
 
A great tool for locating clearance titles can be found here. Go to Amazon or Target to find the item's ASIN. When you find it, enter it into this site along with your zip code of choice and it'll show a list of stores that have the item in stock.

I am not able to find a useable ASIN number for the following games
I went to Amazon and got their info but when i put it in the link above it said it was not valid.

Any help?
 
I tried about a dozen with the amazon.com ASIN numbers and only one worked (Tetris Evolution 360). But that one wasn't in stock anywhere.

lol keep it. $13 Vs $15 and the correct price is $29.99...you'll waste more than $2 in gas ....IF you're successful...
 
The ASIN search tool seems to be getting less and less useful. It used to work all the time, but I've had trouble getting a lot of items to work in the past months. Like a lot of Target clearance related items, it has become YMMV.
 
I have tried 2 different Targets for Ghost Squad on the first one they shot me down quick and pulled the last copies off the shelf. At the 2nd Target 2 people wanted to sell it to me for $10 and were trying to be helpful but some annoying lady who I guess was higher up than the other 2 heard what was going on and she started ranting and raving saying they couldnt sell it to me and the whole time she was glaring at me. The other 2 people tried saying if it was on the shelf they should go ahead and sell it to me but the other lady just kept yelling till they finally agreed with her and they pulled all the copies off the shelf. :(

You should have bought it! They can't tell you they are gonna sell it, and then don't.

well they didnt out right say we will sell it to you. What happened was one of them said cant we just enter it for $9.99 and thats when the evil employee started yelling that they couldnt sell it.
 
Went to a Target up at school a few hours ago... And they had two copies of Ghost Squad. They weren't ringing up and so they called up the kid in electronics and he found the 29.99 sticker and radioed up that number. I am going to try and go back tomorrow and hopefully snag one copy for 12.46 or at the most 19.99.
 
[quote name='quadomatic']I hear Bioshock (PC) is $25 at Target now. Any confirmation?[/QUOTE]

Not clearance - just a temporary price cut for now... I think it said good till 21st. But they were OOS at mine.
 
I tried one last time with Ghost Squad. I took my copy to a smiling, older cashier that looked to be in her 50s. She scanned it and it came up item not found. She paused and frowned, staring at the game. She then took a look at my shirt that said "Friend of Sonic, CAG Target Clearance Thread IX OP" and said, "Wow, it's really you?" I glanced down at my shirt, surprised, and said, "Yes it is!" I then asked her user name on CAG.
She hesitated a bit. "David85," she confessed.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yeah, I was a bit of a homosexual," she giggled. "I think this game is 6.99. Does that sound good to you?"
"Yes!" I exclaimed.
As she updated the price in the register for me, another cashier came over, overhearing the conversation. "You're Friend of Sonic?!" he shouted, pushing over an endcap of glitter onto the magazines display in the process.
"Yeah, man!" I beamed. "Who are you on CAG?"
"Yukine! Hey David85, I hope you're giving this guy a good price!"
"You better believe it!" David85 replied, as she finished ringing the game up. After I paid with my credit card, the receipt printed and we all yelled, giving ourselves a three way high five. After the commotion settled down, we went to Food Avenue and helped ourselves to some fresh baked pretzels.

Long story short, I got Ghost Squad for 6.99 from a nice cashier that made up a price that must have popped into her head. I'm pretty happy.

hehe, I've only met a fatwallet hoarder at CC with his palm pilot "list". When I asked him if he got the list from CAG, he said no he got it from fatwallet and proceeded to grab multiple copies of the same titles as fast as he could. God forbid I meet any of the OTT people in real life lol :p

Part 2 of Target Ménage à Trois

David 85, Yukine and I fucked later that night. We realized that none of us were in the right place in our lives to continue any sort of a relationship, so we went our seperate ways.

I played Ghost Squad the next day.
 
Is Target clearance nationwide? My Super Target (Overland Park, KS) still lists Virtua Fighter PS3 at $39.99 & Oblivion PS3 at $29.99. I would love to pick them up for the PS3 at clearance price though.

Reminds me of a time at K-mart out of town some months back then I found a $19 clearanced game that came up out of system with no sticker. The old man said "Gosh, our manager is meeting with some guys from corporate today. How much do you think this game was suppose to ring up?"

I laughed and said "$1.50 sounds good"

He said ok and charged me as such. I'm pretty sure I didn't say another word the rest of the transaction out of fear he would remember he hates my generation and our "viggy games."

Bioshock for Xbox 360 at Target for $24.99 B&M YMMV

http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?t=712289

Jacked this from slickdeals.
Anybody else see this yet?
Damn it will be awesome if it turns out to be true.
I'm definitely gonna go to target and check it out tomorrow.

I didn't want to make a new deal thread on this because its not confirm at all yet and i dont want to start another jan 8th best buy thing again.
So i posted it here.
Thought some people here might wanted to try to see if it pans out at their target and post it back here.
This could turn out good.

[quote name='munch']Bioshock was definitely not $24.99 at my Target. I'm disappointed![/QUOTE]

I don't believe it. Wow. We've seen this game priced in the $30s before, but this is a bit unbelievable for a Target price right now in the game's life.
 
Bioshock for the PC was 25 bucks on Blackfriday. After playing the game, to be honest, I think it's one of those few games that are worth the full price.
 
picked up NBA Street Homecourt for 14.99, passed on Virtua Tennis 3 for 19.99 and Def Jam Icon for 29.99 (damnit Circuit City, why the PS3 love on these and not the 360). Homecourt will go into my pile of yet to be played games.
 
Is $14.99 a new price for NBA Street Homecourt for the PS3, or is this price YMMV? I was at Target the other day, and the game rang up for $29.99. Can anyone else confirm this?
