This thread is for clearance-- not for sale items. Price reductions for clearance seem to happen on Monday, although not every 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.

Target often donates its older clearance titles to Goodwill stores, so keep that in mind when you're trying to find items. 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." Also, note that, typically, games will drop three times-- from 30%, 50%, then to the final drop of 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, city and state. For example:
Debbie Does Skywalker, Xbox 360, $4.98
Mesa, AZ Power Road at Superstition Springs

Also, a great help when you're posting deals you've found is to check this post and see if your item's DPCI number is already listed. 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 numbers that are not already in the OP-- thanks!

Here is a fairly easy way to check your local Target's pricing-- often price tags will not be correct. 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.

Thanks to Mephitical for this 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.

The lowest known price will be posted. The item could be higher or lower at your store. Numbers in yellow are DPCI numbers, which can be used to check the prices of items on newer scanners.

[quote name='SuperJedi']Do you guys think if we MISS this opportunity, Will Halo Wars LE be cheap again in the future?


With Halo 3 LE that was certainly the case. Not sure about Halo Wars![/QUOTE]

I think the reason Halo 3 LE dropped was because there was too much supply and virtually no demand. In the case of Halo Wars LE, those are much harder to find since they printed much less copies. I highly doubt that you'll be able to find them in retail stores in the future.
 
I'd be very surprised to see Halo Wars CE make it to $35, especially over a holiday weekend. My guess is that it will be very rare at that price.
 
Richmond Midtown, finally picked up Speed Racer PS2 for $4.98 and Lego Indiana Jones PS2 for $9.98.

Lots of copies of Halo Wars. The Short Pump Target had lots of Prince of Persia, but I don't remember the price. Midtown also had lots of Buzz for X360, but I don't recall the price.

You will not find these new, sealed anywhere for cheaper as the Mythic Map Pack code this featured gave Halo 3 players access to the map pack 1 month before it was released on Live, and those codes by themselves sold for $30-$60 before Bungie announced the release date for the map pack so most of these were bought way before now.

I saw some the opening week in March at Best Buy, then I saw one at a STL-area Gamestop for full price in April, then didn't see another one until I got the sealed one at a Target I posted about a page or so back. If you want to risk it still being there for a possible drop after a holiday weekend good luck to ya, but don't be sad if it's long gone.

As others said, the issue with the Halo 3 Legendary was too high cost for the content, over supply, and little demand outside of the hardcore. This LE had more demand, less supply, and cost wasn't too bad considering if you sold the maps you made at least 1/2 of your money back.

When I went for the Halo Wars/baseball game midnight launch in March at my main Gamestop (I was the only one there for MLB The Show 09) there were 25 people there for Halo Wars and all of them did the LE.
 
I went there today to check out the games and there was afro samurai 360, dead space 360, wheel man ps3, and james bond 360 for 29.98.
 
I got a couple of good deals today..

Twisted Metal Head-On "Extra Twisted Edition" (PS2) - $4.98
Bully : Scholarship Edition (PC) - $4.98
007 Quantom of Solace (PC) - $7.48
Viva Adventure Anthology (PC) - $4.98 (Includes Syberia II, Riddle Sphinx, Physicus, Omega Stone, Paradise, Black Buccaneer, and Argo).
 
Target in Crystal Lake, IL. had Afro and Persia 360 both for $41.98. (Afro need to drop another $20 before I bite). They also had about 40 Guitar Hero III for the 360 also.
 
[quote name='kp_assman']star ocean has been 27 for like 3 weeks now. it's pulling the same stunt that tw09 did[/QUOTE]

My Target must be slow. I've gone once every week and I've never seen it besides this time. I've seen loco roco 2 a bunch, so I'm positive it'll drop more.
 
[quote name='jro787']any places in eastern massachuesetts have halo wars on sale? thanks[/QUOTE]

I didn't see any at the one in South Bay in Boston, but there would probably be some at the one in Stoughton.

That's where I picked up :ps3: Afro a few weeks back.
 
weird that people have persia for 41.98 clearance when its 39.99 retail on the website.
My target actually has it for 29.99 non clearance but on sale.
 
Picked up Harvey Birdman (ps2) for $3.74 at the Flower Mound, TX store. They had a bunch of Prince of Persias at 41.98.

Sadly the clearance beer section was gone... replaced with clearance condoms?!

Now that sounds like some employees planning for a good time.

Pfft. They're just repackaged Ziploc bags.

If I'm with my girlfriend and I don't want to risk having kids, the last thing I'm going to wear is clearance condoms.

They started with clearance beer and are on clearance condoms. The next logical move is clearance cigarettes. Or clearance pregnancy tests.
 
Just got back from Target. Got Mirror's Edge (360) for 9.98 and Sins of a Solar Empire (PC) for 7.48. Pretty damn good deal if you ask me.

Sins for $7.48 is an AWESOME deal. I got mine when it was on sale for $30 and it was more than worth it.

Just an FYI, you can register Sins with Impulse.
 
Picked up Scene it BOS for $20. I will hope I can find it for $10 next week, but my wife and I played the first game a lot and I have been watching for a price drop since it came out.

I also say Prince of Persia not marked clearance, but with a price cut sign at $30.
 
Stopped by two targets today in Orange County, CA and saw about 70 copies of GHIII for 360 at $20 from the two stores. Also saw a bunch of Rock Band 2 and Wheelman for PS3 as well as Smackdown vs. Raw 09, Prince of Persia, MK vs DC, and Afro Samurai for X360, but they were all at $30+.
 
I saw the following:

:ps3:rock band 2 $29.98
:360:afro samurai $29.98
:360:prince of persia $29.98
:360: LOTR $29.98 i think
:wii: guitar hero aerosmith (2 guitar bundle) $37.48
 
I went by Target today with the Mrs.(in Shreveport,LA) and saw in the clearance secttion(for the Xbox360) Mortal Kombat Vs DC for 29.xx, Need for Speed Undercover for 27.xx, but I was looking for Lips for 35.xx..no luck :(
 
Scanned or picked up the following today:

:wii: Facebreaker KO Party - $4.98
:wii: Guinness World Records: The Videogame - $4.98
:wii: Guitar Hero: Aerosmith - $4.98
:psp: Secret Agent Clank - $19.98
:psp: Scrabble - $14.98

Wanted to get Star Ocean: Second Evolution for $19.98 but the only stores that had it still had it for $27.98.
 
I snagged some Dragon Ball z :wii: game for $4.98 today. Also saw some World Fishing game for $7.48, though I passed. Saw Box Office Smash for $19.98 too, but decided to wait a week.
 
Well a hoarder finally found my new Target. It's been open for a few months and luckily for me it's close to my house and in a not-so-populated area. But the 20 or so copies of Mirror's Edge that were there last week were all gone. Only saw 1-2 copies of MK v DC and LotR (360) for $41.xx. I'm no longer hopeful for a good deal on these.
 
Scene It BOS is definitely worth it at $19.98. I have it and it's WAY better than the first one (ability to play people online, download new questions, etc.) wonder if they'll put a TV scene it out this year?
 
[quote name='mikek1975']Pfft. They're just repackaged Ziploc bags.

If I'm with my girlfriend and I don't want to risk having kids, the last thing I'm going to wear is clearance condoms.

They started with clearance beer and are on clearance condoms. The next logical move is clearance cigarettes. Or clearance pregnancy tests.[/QUOTE]

They have a section in your Target that caters to the college crowd? :lol: Damn. All we have here are the usual items on clearance.

Speaking of which, I wonder how gone the two copies of XBlades I saw at my local store a week or so ago are now. I really hate my local Targets, since they never have the same schedule as everyone else in this thread and they're always 2-4 weeks behind.

Are you talking about the new one off of Woodlake Parkway? If so, damn, those copies had been for at least a month already, so it's surprising to hear that all of them have disappeared. I find it hard to believe a hoarder would have bought all of them, though. Don't they take clearance games off the shelf once they've been there for a certain amount of time?
 
No drops this week in Exton, PA or Lionville, PA. Thats two weeks in a row.

There were some Weight Watchers frozen dinners clearanced, but that's it. Not the Turkey/Mashed Potatoes or Mac and Cheese tho...:bomb:
 
Weekend pick-ups from Milwaukee and Chicago area Targets:

:psp: Mega Man X whatever $3.74

:ps2: Midway Classics 3 $3.74

I was tempted by a $150 Sony BD350 :br: player as well.
