goodbye CAG. You haven't been fun for awhile now. Too many hoarders, lurkers and flippers.

All Nintendogs or a certain copy?Nintendogs + Cats As Is $10.06
Well, we knew it was just a matter or time.at my traget gardening mama 2 was taken off of clearance
I should rephrase, it is not one employee it is several. Asking one time is not bad, but having them come up to you and ask every time you see a new one is annoying. I am usually there right at 8 a.m. and there are many of them around. They have pallets on floor restocking and boxes thrown in aisles to stock. It is almost worse than Walmart overnight stocking. So it is not just one employee asking over and over, but one not realizing that I was just asked 2 aisles over.The employee generally only asks if you need help one time and goes away. If you are constantly being asked that, then they possibly could be monitoring you. I was taking a long time rummaging through a pile of clearance games one time (since as a collector, I'm really picky about choosing a copy in perfect condition with no loose disc), and they kept on bugging me as well.
Best Buy is the worst with this. I swear to god, EVERYONE in best buy approaches you and asks you if you need help. I just want to wear a shirt that says NO when I go into best buy.I should rephrase, it is not one employee it is several.

To be fair that's like 70% of their job.Best Buy is the worst with this. I swear to god, EVERYONE in best buy approaches you and asks you if you need help. I just want to wear a shirt that says NO when I go into best buy.
I rarely ever get asked at any BB stores I go to. Now those Direct TV people at Best Buy, that's a different story. I have to run away when I see them coming.Best Buy is the worst with this.

Just tell them you already have DirecTV service, that usually takes care of them immediately. If they try for an upsell tell them you just subscribed and got the full package already, but thanks anyway.I rarely ever get asked at any BB stores I go to. Now those Direct TV people at Best Buy, that's a different story. I have to run away when I see them coming.
Now THAT is hilarious. Although, wtf is up with your husband's lack of interest in games?!?I hate those direct tv people.
I did get a funny story out of it though.
When I was pregnant, I somehow convinced my husband to go buy me some games because I would need it for when I was on maternity leave waiting to go into labor (never mind that I already have a huge backlog). Anyways, whenever I go game shopping he generally leaves me to myself and wanders off to go look at other stuff or sit in the corner looking bored, so this time was no different, I think he went to go check out TVs. As I was checking out games, I see a direct tv guy approaching, luckily there was a guy nearby me looking at games too so he stopped to chat up this guy before me. The guy politely tells him no to his questions, but the direct tv guy keeps pushing and asks something along the lines of "why won't you buy don't you make the decisions? Don't you want to watch sports package" and no lie, he turns to me and goes hunny are you ok? Is it time? Let me go get the car!!! And runs off leaving the direct tv guy and me with the most confused look on my face as I struggle to right myself back up from picking up a game on the bottom shelf :lol:
Those were wiped out in the LA area during the "free"/$1 Tomb Raider shennanegans (pricematch combined with preorder card discount)...surprised any store still has those Target exclusive steelbooks.Not clearance but Tomb Raider PS3 /360 is $20 now if you want it for the steelbook
I was at a store today that had 5 360 steels and 10 PS3 steels. They actually didn't have any "regular" copies of the game that I saw.Those were wiped out in the LA area during the "free"/$1 Tomb Raider shennanegans (pricematch combined with preorder card discount)...surprised any store still has those Target exclusive steelbooks.
The only game's I ever see him get excited about are the street fighter arcade machines, other than that he doesn't play. Maybe once in a blue moon for like 10 minutes. He's always been into other stuff. I know we're a little backwards, since typically the wife isn't the one who likes video games, etc.Now THAT is hilarious. Although, wtf is up with your husband's lack of interest in games?!?
I've been told that it's supposed to be salvaged so they're not supposed to sell it to me but then the manager will usually sell it at the last clearance price. Be aware though that some stuff will come up like that on the scanners on the floor but will come up with a price on the handheld scanners and registers.Also, when an item rings up as out of the system does it work like Kmart does? I checked a Skylanders bundle, marked $20 clearance to see if it dropped to $10 & it came up as that.
Same here. First decent target clearance find I've had in, probably, yearsPicked up the last pokemon white 2 today for $10.xx. nothing else really caught my eye

honestly in my opinion no it is not. It been $35 for a Whole Year literally, it was $35 on the website even during Christmas of 2012 and yet still in stock. It doesn't include much either. no steelbook either. it basically just the Game + a cardboard box, a flag, a bunch of papers, and a tiny metal/plastic piece and a dlc for exclusive adam fenix. Not worth it considering how cheap the stand alone game is now.Is Gears of War 3: Limited Edition for $35 worth it?
I actually saw some at my local store, but they were marked at $25.xx or something. Will check again next time I'm there, thanks.For what its worth I picked up a $10.47 copy of Pokemon White 2 for my niece today in SATX
Just type in the dpci into a scannerI actually saw some at my local store, but they were marked at $25.xx or something. Will check again next time I'm there, thanks.
Assuming your Target's scanner has them.Just type in the dpci into a scanner

It must be. They certainly aren't spending any time organizing shelves or keeping price stickers updated.To be fair that's like 70% of their job.
It's some Solar energy company salespeople at my local BB now and they are somehow even more persistent than the DTV guys.I rarely ever get asked at any BB stores I go to. Now those Direct TV people at Best Buy, that's a different story. I have to run away when I see them coming.
If there are no numbers on the scanner, hold the last button for a few seconds to get an on-screen keypad.Assuming your Target's scanner has them.
This!If there are no numbers on the scanner, hold the last button for a few seconds to get an on-screen keypad.
Interesting, I didn't know that.If there are no numbers on the scanner, hold the last button for a few seconds to get an on-screen keypad.
It basically was when I left there and the people that I know still working there say it still basically is. The rest is selling service plans. Really, there's little to nothing they're needed for beyond that.It must be. They certainly aren't spending any time organizing shelves or keeping price stickers updated.
Will keep that in mind. I've always just wandered around until I found the single one with buttons.If there are no numbers on the scanner, hold the last button for a few seconds to get an on-screen keypad.
Finally it has been explained!If there are no numbers on the scanner, hold the last button for a few seconds to get an on-screen keypad.
Saw a Ghosts HE for PS3 in one of those sections today.not clearance per say, but my target had last chance video games (where they normally have the clearance games) some were MSRP *cough* AC3LE for $120 *cough*
all were buy 1 get one at equal or lesser value for free.
Is it going to be great? Probably not. Will it be acceptable enough for $140? Yeah, probably.I know people have been knocking that Westinghouse tv, but would it be worth it at $138 plus tax for a new in box one?
(upgrading from a similar Memorex I got at Kmart in 2010 that's a 26")
When the Westinghouse I had burned out I looked into why, apparently they use extremely cheap parts, for example cheap resistors iirc can have up to a 15- 20% acceptable variance, which when you have a ton of parts tends to even out.Saw a Ghosts HE for PS3 in one of those sections today.

Isn't that what I said?When the Westinghouse I had burned out I looked into why, apparently they use extremely cheap parts, for example cheap resistors iirc can have up to a 15- 20% acceptable variance, which when you have a ton of parts tends to even out.
However you can have all the parts at the high end of variance in the same direction, which is bad.
TL;DR, If you can get one for cheap enough that you'd be okay if it burnt out in a year, go for it. If it only lasts a year, no disappointments. If it lasts longer, Bonus!
I was merely seconding your statement.Isn't that what I said?
Saw that and Walking Dead Wii U hit %70% off along with Phines and Ferb visits 2D Realm for DS and Carnival 3DS hit 70% off as well. Went to six stores and they where all pretty disappointing.Aliens: Infestation finally hit $5.98, pretty good Metroidvania game. I picked it up
