Target clearance is YMMV, ya dig! 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, 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! 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.

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 gold are DPCI numbers, which can be used to check the prices of items on newer scanners.

The Legend of EL HOARDO as told by Strell
No cankle too big and no score too small,
The one and only EL HOARDO.

He'll steal your stash - gonna take it all,
That's the one - EL HOARDO.

He's gonna run down all the aisles
and snatch up all the loot,
And he's feeling really confident
in his nipple protection suit!

Awesome sideburns and a dapper mask
He's at your local store,
Gonna clean out everything
And then go back for more!

Who's the guy in the Star Trek shades?
He's the man they call EL HOARDO.

His boots are secretly roller blades,
There he goes! EL HOARDO!

He's got a cape and it's totally sweet,
A flash in red and white,
Calls his fanny pack his utility belt,
He's ready for a discount fight!

You'd never think he could run so fast,
With a gut of giant size,
Asks all the ladies if they'd like a ride
On his Starship Enterprise!

What's that sound comin' down the lane?
It can only be EL HOARDO.

His stubby legs are gonna bring the pain,
Brace yourselves - EL HOARDO!

He packs a sword, it's a replica,
Like Zorro in disguise,
Gonna leave an H scratched on the wall,
Then he'll move those ten ton thighs!

Knows all the price drops all the time,
Has inhalers to survive,
Lives in a basement at his parents house,
At the age of thirty five!

That's the one who got your penny guide,
The stallion called EL HOARDO.

He's got his Rascal parked outside,
That Man-of-Men EL HOARDO.

EL HOOOOOOOARDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

"You just got...EL HOARDO'D!" __________________

There have been some confirmed reports of La Whoreda, the female counterpart to El Hoardo. She is obviously more rare in the Target environment since she usually focuses her energy to her Avon business, but caution should still be exercised.

Same here. People see stuff for 30% off and they go apeshit over it like it's the best deal ever.:roll:
 
[quote name='RedFoxCommando']does anyone have an idea of what Target is selling their 360 arcades for? For the ones that have any left that is.[/QUOTE]

good question my local targets are wiped out, so im guessing they should of entered clerance markdowns soon......if theres any left
 
I saw some leftover, but the prices seemed "normal" for whatever Targets are currently selling them for. I know it's not helpful, but unless it's a deal, I don't keep those numbers in my head.

I saw one for $149.99 last week.
 
WOOT! Picked up a copy of the International Version "Red Cliff" Blu-Ray DVD today for $6.24... It said online item and was marked with a red tag. That's awesome... except I bought a copy from Amazon a few months back at $20... Oh well. Add it to the collection and trade it later or something...

Still seeing
:360: Alone in the Dark
:wii: Backyard Football
:wii: GH: Van Halen
:ps3: MLB 09

all at 75% off...
 
[quote name='L0sther0']I picked up Tekken 6 for 9.98 (i had not yet gotten a fighting game for this generation)[/QUOTE]

That is a great price! Made a trip to my Target hoping for that kinda luck...Nope...Nothing worth buying
 
Super Paper Mario Wii $12.48
Pokemon Explorers of Darkness DS $8.xx
Pokemon Explorers of Time $8.xx

I picked up Explorers of Darkness only because I have a DS right now & not a Wii, although I plan on getting a Wii pretty soon.

I think the only reason all of the above games were there still is because they weren't stickered according to the current price. For example the Pokemon games were still stickered $24.98 & Paper Mario $34.98.
 
all target here had was fairytale fights and pro evolution soccer 2010 for 13.98 each. Although they did have a psyclone wii docking station that I picked up for $8 so not a total loss.

FTF... :lol: Funny how so many people didn't keep that game even when it was free @ BB.
 
Target on McKnight Rd, Pittsburgh, PA had:

PS3:
Madden 10 20.xx
Ghostbusters 13.xx
MLB 09 9.xx

Xbox360:
ProEvo Soccer 2010 13.xx
Dark Void 13.xx

PC operation flashpoint 4.98
PC Avatar ( movie game) 9.98
PC some online game pack ?? 1.24

i did picked up a huge super soaker for 3.74
 
[quote name='Maniac Mansion']Clenched tightly in the greasey, sweaty hands of El Hoardo.[/QUOTE]

Or listed on eBay by The Flipper...:roll:
 
My Target is cleaned out of everything worthwhile. Glad I picked up deBlob before it vanished. The Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction guide I've seen for about 6 months is still on the shelf.
 
Why do people have to be dickholes about others getting stuff at 30% vs waiting? Did it ever occur to you that some people are fine with paying the 30% clearance price vs taking a gamble on a further drop?
 
[quote name='za23']Bought 5 copies of Metroid Prime Trilogy:wii: for 12.xx[/QUOTE]

You're not gonna make any friends talking about grabbing 5 copies of MPT but that is a tremendous price. I never saw an MPT less than $25. (Most disappeared at $35.)

Yeah, let me know when that happens.

By the way, are you in the market for a bridge? I got a barely used one I'm trying to get rid of.

Damn thats an epic score. Honestly as much as people hate hoarders, most here would of scooped them up too.

Contender for Target Clearance Deal of the Year I must say!

I'm hoping those copies of Super Paper Mario Wii are there still there when I get paid. They were $12.48 each although not marked as such. I'm probably gonna take back Pokemon Explorers of Darkness that I picked up for $8.xx. After reading reviews/watching gameplay vids, it looks pretty damn boring.

If I keep it, it'll be the first Pokemon game I've ever played for more than a few minutes. Any thoughts on it for those that have played it in regards to keeping it for that price?

You don't have to bid. I was just saying that I got a really good deal on MPT at Target along with Za23. This thread is for Target clearance and I was just stating what I bought at a Target and what I'm doing with it. Anyways, Target clearance is the best. There's been a severe lack of games on clearance lately here in Georgia.

Thread fail.
 
Saw Bayonetta at one of my local Targets(they are becoming like Walmart now) for $30 a few days ago.

I think it was for PS3, but I could be mistaken.
 
[quote name='confoosious']Yeah, let me know when that happens.

Is it the one in Brooklyn NY cuz I already own it. See.:lol:

As for Bayonetta, I think it's $19.99 this week at Best Buy and it's only Sunday and Monday and only online.
 
This isn't the sale/trade thread. If you have stuff for sale/trade/auction that's nice. But don't pimp it here. Only discuss What is on clearance at Which Target for How Much. This isn't difficult folks.

Yes, but it could be $15 tomorrow potentially. :D
 
[quote name='VindictiveGnome']I bought two copies of MPT with Za23 last monday for $12.xx What a deal! Can't wait to see what they have tomorrow.[/QUOTE]

:roll:

Want a cookie?
 
I saw 3 copies of Bioshock 2 Special Edition for $39.xx. Thought this was a good deal since a friend paid $40 for his new copy last week. (This was some kind of 'elite' edition or something. Very large, very heavy box that I assume is full of random 'collectibles'.)
 
Saw 4 or 5 of the Punch Out with Nunchuck bundles for $32.48 in Frisco, TX. Picked one up and was seriously considering it, then my wife came up and said 'but you don't own a Wii." Not sure how to explain it to her, but a deal is a deal.
 
Clearance drops from my store:
MLB 10 The Show - PSP and PS2
PES 2010 - 360
Chicken shooting game with gun accesory - Wii

Not good again. Wish they had PES 2010 for PS3.
 
[quote name='eldergamer']I picked up Mario Power Play Tennis last week for $7.48. Heck of a deal IMO.[/QUOTE]

Thanks, I'll have to look for this.
