Share deals, target deals... Don't fight. Be adults.
You sure about that? They've been planning 3G shutdown and delayed it a couple of times. I don't think they're getting rid of 4G LTE.Mine does^ though they didn't even attempt to bother me surprisingly. verizon is terminating service for the 3g and 4g phones for whatever reason. So i'll have to get a new phone soon it seems.
SAME 110%, except I reached this point about a year or 2 ago, when the last of the Great Target CLEARANCE era ended..I went out this morning to hunt. Nothing in the clearance area was marked, so I just started scanning games.
With the size of my backlog, I settled on Star Wars Pinball for Switch and Saints Row the Third Remastered for PS4 since those were the only copies of those games in the store. They were $10 each, and I had a gift card, so I said what the hell.
At this point, I can't see myself spending more than $10 on a new physical copy. And I always buy games from this annual sale and never play them, so there was no sense in spending more money to have more shrink-wrapped copies to stare at.
Sadly, I found Ace Combat 7, Borderlands: Handsome Collection, and Kingdom Hearts III for Xbox at home the other day. I bought them on December 13th of last year when Target did their annual clearance sale. They were still sealed in the Target bag with the receipt.
But, good luck to everyone who's looking to add to their collections. Go nuts. :shock:
10-15 years ago I considered myself solely a console gamer. I like nice graphics and games look best on a nice TV. My first handheld was the 3ds. Now that I have kids, having a system that is portable is more important. I may sacrifice frames rate and graphics on the Switch but I never would have finished Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, or any other game in my backlog if I only played on the TV. Speaking of backlog, I should try Bioshock on the SwitchSAME 110%, except I reached this point about a year or 2 ago, when the last of the Great Target CLEARANCE era ended..
Got tired of the growing and growing back catalog, plus the fact that I'd end up buying double and triples of games I already had and wouldn't even know it till months after the return window when I would randomly find copy 2 or copy 3 of game in a Target bag with the receipt right there..
getting older sucks, I just don't have the time to play games like that anymore it seems..
p.s. I just completed the original Bioshock on PS3, after starting it in September of 2017 (based on one of my save files but realistically more like 2015).
yes as I have the texts on my phone from them that they will not continue service for those at the end of next year. They even advertised buying a new phone at Walmart -_-.You sure about that? They've been planning 3G shutdown and delayed it a couple of times. I don't think they're getting rid of 4G LTE.
Yeah, alan wake was recently $20Another Target, another batch of games to scan:
Passed on Stardew and 101 since I have them for PS4. Passed on Wake since I’ll probably be able to get it cheaper for PS5 at some point. Was hoping for a much deeper discount on the two WiiU games. They must’ve dug those out from deeeeeep in back.
They are starting to put up the pop up shippers with stickered games in the few stores I checked today. Nothing really of note tho.
Hmm. I am tempted to go back and scan the FE Warriors at the nearest Target now. I didn't scan it because everything else rang up as marked (the already 50% off). Is Wonderful 101 a decent play? The videos I've seen look fun, but reviews are kind of all over.Another Target, another batch of games to scan:
Switch:
Wonderful 101 - $9.99
Stardew Valley - $17.49

Sorry, check my corrected original post, It was actually $29.99 on clearance. I incorrectly assumed it would be half off too until I had the attendant come and get it out of the case and check for me. Worth watching for future drops tho.Hmm.

fire emblem warriors was the same price last year so i assume it's never droppingSorry, check my corrected original post, It was actually $29.99 on clearance.

This, soooo much this. Though mine isn't kid driven, more wife goes into separation anxiety if I am not sitting nearby (while she falls asleep to Hallmark movies, but I digress).10-15 years ago I considered myself solely a console gamer.

I regret not getting it at Meijer clearance last year. It was $6 and I passed on it.fire emblem warriors was the same price last year so i assume it's never dropping
Mayhaps, but since it had an actual yellow clearance sticker on it I will not give up the hope!fire emblem warriors was the same price last year so i assume it's never dropping
it's most likely just going to go back up to $60 when the 50% off sale ends like it did last yearMayhaps, but since it had an actual yellow clearance sticker on it I will not give up the hope!
haha may I ask though, where do you find the time for even portable gaming?10-15 years ago I considered myself solely a console gamer. I like nice graphics and games look best on a nice TV.

It sounds like your life is a little crazier than mine right now. I have 3 kids and my wife helps. I usually play in bed after my wife goes to bed. My youngest likes watching me play skyward sword too. My 9 and 11 year old don't need constant supervision so as long as my chores are done, I can game without guilt. Granted it's usually for no more than 30 minutes at a time, but it's still somethinghaha may I ask though, where do you find the time for even portable gaming?
I truly ask, as maybe I am missing something.. thanks to Covid-19 and the REMOTE workplace of 2020/2021, I was able to mod my PS Vita that was jus collecting dust and have the entire library of NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, and GBA, along with a few PSP gems and even some ps3/Vita jointss on there.
However after getting it modded, its again collecting dust as I truly don't have a "time" to play it.
Playing Bioshock for the last 5+ years it took me to complete it, I think I average about 1hr of gaming p/week, and thats me pushing hard for it.
My issue is 5 kids all under age 12, d@m these lil seeds keep me busy!!! Also due to a family emergency I have been SINGLE DADDY'ing it up for the last 6+ months, while working 45-55 hour work weeks..
sh@t aint' easy right now...
I know it's a spin-off title and a 2nd party game but you passed on it for $6? Seriously? I've never played a Warriors game but it seems like a no-brainer at that price.I regret not getting it at Meijer clearance last year. It was $6 and I passed on it.
I would tend to agree. Last year (and the year before that too if I recall correctly) the games stayed at 50% off the whole time. No stepping from 30% off, to 50% off, to 70% off like their traditional clearance.it's most likely just going to go back up to $60 when the 50% off sale ends like it did last year
I wasn't very familiar with FE so I figured I'd never play it. Now after playing some other FE stuff and the two Zelda Warriors games I feel like I would've liked it. Oh well. Hindsight and all.I know it's a spin-off title and a 2nd party game but you passed on it for $6? Seriously? I've never played a Warriors game but it seems like a no-brainer at that price.
Mine yesterday had a square drop bin of all the 'clearance' games next to the registers, so you might check there?Still bupkis
I very rarely find anything decent on clearance, at Walmart, Target or elsewhere. I either have terrible luck or some very dedicated deal hunters in my area (which would also be terrible luck).
haha NOICE..It sounds like your life is a little crazier than mine right now. I have 3 kids and my wife helps. I usually play in bed after my wife goes to bed.

Is the Borderlands Legendary an entirely digital one or is there one game on a card and the others digital?I got Borderlands Legendary (switch) for $9.99, Wonderful 101 (switch) for $9.98 and Dragon Ball Z Kakarot (XBO) for $14.99.
BL1 is on cartridge. BL2 + Pre-Sequel (ie Handsome Collection) is a single dlc code included in the case. The dlc code comes with 200 gold coins ^^Is the Borderlands Legendary an entirely digital one or is there one game on a card and the others digital?
I wish more mommy blogger story-advertisements were in this stylehaha NOICE..
and yeah its a bit crazy these days.. NO JOKE I strive to put em all to bed by 9pm MAX, but literally I am ready to pass out myself at 9:01pm. Can't believe it because I used to go to bed at 2-4am at get up at 6am no problem... now, if I don't get 8+ hours of shut eye I am flipPin dead!!
NONETHELESS..
I picked up Ghost Of Tsushima from the $19.99 "sale" pile at Target yesterday and I am making it my goal to make some time for it this weekend. I WILL PLAY THIS.. or at least start it!!
Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.I wish more mommy blogger story-advertisements were in this style
I wish I could find some of these games. I would love to play WarioWare Gold. I think the Gamecube release is still the best though.Remember last year, when Fire Emblem Echoes and some random Wii U games started popping up at a bunch of random Targets after being MIA? I think the same thing might be happening this year with some other 3DS titles. Found WarioWare Gold, Mario Party: The Top 100 and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn for $20 each at a Target that didn't have any 3DS games on the shelves for months.
I really can't recommend WarioWare Gold enough if you don't already own it. It's truly one of the essential 3DS titles and the full voice acting + animation makes it a unique and surprisingly significant part of Nintendo history. Charles Martinet sounds like he's having the time of his life in this.

Passed on Stardew and 101 since I have them for PS4. Passed on Wake since I’ll probably be able to get it cheaper for PS5 at some point. Was hoping for a much deeper discount on the two WiiU games. They must’ve dug those out from deeeeeep in back.

I think I had someone like that approach me maybe a month ago. Shut them down quick with I'm satisfied with my carrier, so not sure if they were AT&T or not heh.Btw, does every Target have these AT&T people in them now who stand near electronics and try to convince you to change your phone plan? I hate it so much I have to awkwardly avoid walking near them now.
I feel like Target is busted for Brickseek. I never have it display any results period nowadays.unfortunately, several of those show "No Results found in the search area" for me
Really Would love to find Shield + Expansion Pass if possible
I feel like Target is busted for Brickseek. I never have it display any results period nowadays.
I’ve definitely noticed that Brickseek won’t bring up any results for anything if it doesn’t have a current listing on their website, and even then it’s only displaying the online price rather than each store’s internal cost. Everything went to crap once Target updated their servers or whatever a few months ago. The in-store scanners started showing the proper clearance prices again, but it broke Brickseek, apparently. Hopefully it gets solved soon.I'm pretty sure Brickseek Target only populates results properly if the game still has an active Target.com page. It wasn't always that way, but that's what I've noticed in recent months.
Same. I laugh because I know for a fact that a few of these are actually there and the stock system is just dumb as always and rarely ever correct. Targets website is equally inept much like walmarts as I can have an item in my hand and the site will say out of stock.unfortunately, several of those show "No Results found in the search area" for me

Them and Dekudeals should have been done a long time ago :/Can we get BS added to CAG's whitelist already?
