CAGiversary!
For those who are into Transformers, it might be worth knowing that Target does their toy section reset right after Christmas every year, and this year one of the items they've put on clearance is the giant Starscream figure from the Transformers Cybertron series. It's a great figure in my opinion, but my cheap ass was not going to spend $45+tax for it. Now, however, it's 30% off at many Targets, and 50% off at some others, depending on where you live. My Target had three of them left, so I picked it up today on lunch...came out to be about $31 and change after employee discount. If it's dropped to 50% off in your area, it'll ring up around $22.xx.
Also, some people on Transformers forums around the web are reporting that it's gone on clearance at Wal-Mart as well, but since Wal-Mart clearances are so YMMV on the level of price drop, I didn't even bother checking the ones here. 98% of the time, when I see something on clearance at Wal-Mart, they've knocked literally $2 off of the price, as if that's a great bargain.
edit: Okay, after a request, here's the figure:

I'll go on to say that it's even cooler once it's out of the box. Really great figure...just not a great price originally if you're a cheap-ass.
