(Part I) The Target clearance thread

Target clearance is YMMV
Games may not even be on clearance at your store, or they may be higher or lower than what is on this list.

This thread is for clearance-- not for sale items. Price reductions for clearance seem to happen on Monday but could also occur any day of the week depending on your store's price change team. Price adjustments on clearance are typically not allowed, but some have succeeded or have been able to do as return and rebuy.

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. Also, note that, typically, games will drop three times-- from 30%, 50%, then to the final drop of 70% or 75% off of the original price. Some people, however, have seen further drops up to 85%.

When games are marked down, the price change team typically find the game and scan it with their PDA/LRT to intiate the price change. However, in the case that they cannot find the game, they will either choose to not drop the price further or process the price change anyway, figuring that the game is somewhere in the store.

When posting deals, please include game, system, price, DCPI # and online item # in RED!!!​

For example:​

:ps3:
$4.98
123-45-6789 Random Game Name #12345678​

DPCI stands for Department, Class, Item-- it's Target's version of a SKU. These are a nine digit number that can always be found on your receipt and also on the red clearance tags on the item itself. ​

DPCI numbers are handy to have when you want to check the item's price-- just go over to your scanner and punch in the numbers, if your scanners have keypads. Also, you can give these numbers to team members so they can check the availability of the item easily with their PDA scanners. Please post any DPCI #'s or Online Item #'s that are not already in the OP-- thanks! ​

This is especially important since some of the DPCI numbers on Target.com start with 241, meaning they cannot be used in-store, and also meaning that I can't get all of the numbers from Target.com.​




New link to search for items using Target's online item #:​


You can also take the DPCI # and search on Target.com for an exact match and then use the store locator there.​


(HUGE PROPS TO mitch079 FOR GETTING US THIS USEFUL INFO!!!)​

If you are having trouble with the above search here are more detailed directions:​
Take the DPCI #s and search on target.com for an exact match and then use the store locator there. If there isn't an exact match, try googling Target and the DPCI #. For instance, on the 500 gb Seagate hard drive, it doesn't show up on the site. Google shows the online # as 13730271. Then, you can plug the online # in http://m.target.com/fiats/t- and put the online number after the - so the link would be: http://m.target.com/fiats/t-13730271. Hit enter, plug in your zip and it should work.​

Here is a fairly easy way to check your local Target's pricing in-store as often price tags will not be correct:​

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 Database ,Milk.com , or UPC Data and enter the code so you can print out the UPC. Go to Target and use the price scanners to scan your printouts. ​

Thanks to BigDirty for that^​

Regarding items posted in the OP:​

The lowest known price will be posted. The item could be higher or lower at your store.​

Numbers in purple are DPCI #'s, which can be used to check the prices of items on newer scanners.​

Numbers in orange are online item #'s.​


I am starting off this new thread going back to October 1st, 2012.
Please refer to the prior thread for any items before then.​

THIS IS A WIKIFIED THREAD!!! IF YOU ARE ABLE TO, PLEASE UPDATE THE OP WHEN YOU REPORT DROPS USING THE APPROPRIATE FORMAT!!!​

THANK YOU....​

[quote name='bjstucker']So is Pacman/MegaMan/Cole all Pay to play characters on the PS3 Version?[/QUOTE]

Free. Cole is already on every PS3 copy I'm sure, like Kratos on Mortal Kombat. Megaman+Pacman was a free download from PSN when it came out, though I'm not sure if it still is. Don't need the game to check on PSN, but new store sucks just says "purchased" for me, I'm thinking it is still free.

haha nice, goodluck with the hunt! i was a bit sad i missed out on the LBP Move Bundle at Best Buy on Black Friday but this is just as good and 10 bucks less. Not too big a fan of LBP anyways.
 
I get the "oops, let's try that again." message for some of the DPCI. Why is that?
I double check them and try with and without the dashes.

Some of the recently posted ones like MGS HD 207-22-0637
 
[quote name='Myka']Two out of the three Targets I used to check still don't have their electronic clearance sections back after Black Friday :/[/QUOTE]

The Target closest to me moved their electronics clearance section around Black Friday. Finally found it on the end of one of the office supply isles. Very odd placement...not sure if it is better that is is away from the electronics where people will be looking for games or if things will sell quicker because where it is now is much more visible.

Yeah, I wish I would have known about the LBP 2 bundle on BF. My Best Buy had a ton of them afterwards. I don't really need LBP 2, I have Plus so I have 2 for free, and I got LBP when they gave games out for psn being down. I travel a lot with my job so I get to hit a lot of stores, I have 3 Targets in the area now so hopefully one of them will have one.
 
Jealous over all the SFxTekkens you are reporting. Checked 3 stores and none had them, and I don't think they ever did in the recent past.

Same here. Checked 2 Targets and no luck
 
what versions are you looking for? only one my store had was the 360 version for 11.98 i believe. If they still have it next monday it probably will be even cheaper.
 
I remembered seeing Pacman & Megaman as free, a while ago, but I didn't get around to adding them.

Just checked, FREE!:bouncy::D

Tuh. I went to 1 store. They didn't have it. I gave them the DPCI(PS3 version 207-24-0629). Their store locator got me my copy.
 
My local store has more games than I can recall ever seeing in clearance. The odd thing is a lot of them are not marked clearance. The items are tagged repackage & the price ends in .01.

It's not a mess. It's their way of getting it in your cart (since most people associate those areas with Clearance). If you've noticed, most of those games are $19.99-$29.99, so for the most part they're not $60.
Some people will look at the price while checking out, and may not think about it twice since it's 'just' $19.99.
It's marketing, not a mistake or 'mess'.
 
:ps3: SF x Tekken is $19.99 at Walmart (YMMV?)

... same goes for :ps3: Dark Souls.

For those who can't find them locally at Target, try looking there?
 
Heads up, Target has revived a deal that ended up running for several consecutive weeks last December, "Free $10 Target GiftCard with purchase of $50 or more." Coupon here: http://coupons.target.com/friends-and-fans-coupons

The coupon ID/barcode isn't unique at all, it's the same for everybody that prints it. Copy the coupon and use it multiple times if you wish.

One caveat, apparently it does *not* work for the purchase of any type of giftcards this year, which is the primary way so many people exploited it last year.

It seems to be their new MSRP...check Amazon and Gamestop.

I wish I'd known about this yesterday! It's tempting to return and rebuy the Sims expansions I picked up on sale, but then the $5 gift card I had used would just be swallowed by the void, I guess - unless there's something you lot know that I don't, or there's something flying over my head here.

That, and I don't want to risk losing the only Limited Edition copy of Sims 3 Supernatural I could find in the area...

Metal Gear Solid HD Collection (Xbox 360) DPCI :207-22-0637 Online item # :13740907

Metal Gear Solid HD Collection (Playstation 3) DPCI :207-24-0068 Online item # :13772917

Not sure why it's so difficult to go to target.com and search for "Metal Gear Solid HD"

DPCI for AC3 LE X360 is 207-22-0781...just search target.com for "assassin's creed limited"
 
I almost bought SFxT for $20 2-3 weeks ago with my reward zone gift certificate. Found it for just under $10 after tax today. So now, I can buy a PSN card to get that DLC pack. $10 for the full roster.

This isn't the case at my store. There are a lot of newer titles tagged w/ repackage & the prices end in .01. If you scan the games, the price is greater than the repackage sticker. There are about 25 games priced like this.

[quote name='TeamSwish']I've been trying to find NHL 12 on clearance over Metro Detroit. No luck so far.[/QUOTE]

My store has about 20 copies for each system. If you can't find one & I'll pick it up for you. You only need to add shipping to the cost. It's usually between $2.00 - $2.80.

[quote name='blume3']Anyone able to find the move bundle for $29.99?[/QUOTE]

Yes. My store had several of these, but it was for the Sports Champion bundle.
 
Went to my local target hoping to find the sports champions move bundle but was disappointed.

They did have psp gta:chinatown wars for $5.95 but I only have a Vita and not a psp

gave up on the sports champions bundle. I only wanted sports champions anyways, I don't really care about the other game. Newegg has the Just Dance 3 bundle on sale for $49.99 so I bit on that. Now just to buy a cheap nav controller/extra motion controller.

You might still be able to get a nav controller for 17.97 at radio shack. I picked one up a couple months ago and have seen them around still I think.

thanks, I'll check it out. I can get a USED one for about $18, but I'd prefer new.
 
Picked up a Rayman Origins 360 for 5.98 :) I've wanted that game and sub ten dollars was my buying point. First time finding a decent Target clearance game in months.
 
[quote name='shadowkast']Had $7 from shopkick, had to pick up SFxT for $2 even though I'm not a big fan of fighting games[/QUOTE]

I know nothing about Shopkick, but was $2 of that the "Scan Mission" for Target? If not, you could have got it for free! Saw something on SD about "Tap the scan mission advertisement" in the Shopkick app, scan the 3 items 'that they specify' in Target, and get a $2 Target GC.
 
Found a copy of SF x Tekken :360: it was marked $27.98 but scanned at $11.98. Someone tried to hide behind the $20 value games. :lol: It wasn't under $10 like everybody is finding, but I'm sure it would be gone by the next price drop.

This was at the Lakewood Center Mall if its anybody here who was hiding it.:D

Have you tried Kmarts? Are you near any? I don't remember if you're 1 of the billions of people I've mentioned this to, but I got the LBP2 Move bundle(you know-game,nav and everything else) for $24.99 at Kmart.

I picked up one of these for the same price today. I've been eyeing that game for a while and figured 6 bucks was too good to pass up. Also picked up Halo: CE Anniversary for 14.98. :)

Yeah, i used that. That was basically my breaking point. Then those scans pushed me up to a $5 cert. Redcard negates tax. That will push even the strongest of cags over the edge my friend

yep tried all my kmarts I have access to wasn't able to find it, I did find the red controller + GOW for $29.99 though. Probably won't play the game bc it's the PSP games but I wanted a cheap red controller.

Origins? They were remade for ps3. They look good and are fun on the ps3.
 
Short Pump/Richmond : of the 4 Wiimote Plus packs with Wii Play Plus, 3 were bought at $34.99, and the 4th looks like someone tried to break into it.

So, someone got 3 Wiimote +s for close to retail price, and someone else is a jerk. Sigh... was hoping to watch these drop.
