(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='maxpower0965']Just got back from target and I found BioShock 2 for $4.98.[/QUOTE]
I also saw Bioshock 2 ps3 for $4.98. They were all labeled "AS IS".
 
I've gone to 4 different Targets and have been unable to find a copy of Dark Souls for PS3. If anyone picked up an extra copy, please PM me
 
I saw Bioshock 2 for $5.06. It was an Online Only clearance, and there were a few of them. I got one. I also saw Resident Evil 5, which was As-Is and was $4.56. It was not the Gold Edition and so I had no interest.
 
Picked some nice as-is merch today, Sonic and Tails 2 disc set and Watchmen/V for Vendetta/Constantine blu ray for $3.76 each.
 
Cheapassgamer in Missouri. If you want to check out Target in Antioch Mall Try your luck at Metro North Mall instead. Also, they have 1 copy Metal Gear Solid HD (360) $27.98 possible it'll drop down $12 up coming monday. Everything else is FULL price :(

If you're willing to drive Kansas side the Target at johnson drive and metcalf in Mission has 2 x MGS HD :360: for 11.98 as of last night along with a slew of others (like the $5 Bioshock 2 and RE5 :ps3:)
 
[quote name='KrayzieKMF']I also saw Bioshock 2 ps3 for $4.98. They were all labeled "AS IS".[/QUOTE]

Funny, my Target had all the PS3 Greatest Hits games on sale for $18. But if you walked a few aisles down to the Clearance end cap they had a huge stack of Resident Evil 5 & Bioshock 2 for $5.06 (both PS3).
 
[quote name='zillionandnine']Random curiosity ... For those of you who have found blu-rays in clearance, are these usually put with the video game clearance or somewhere else?[/QUOTE]

I don't always see them with the clearanced games, but they are never far separated from the electronics area, in my experience at least. Though I also don't see clearanced DVDs/Blu-rays often.

A few posters back said they were in the same spot. Haven't seen any myself.

[quote name='Romeo']How is it possible he got it clearanced today though? Prices change on Monday.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='Romeo']jukka, where are you? New drops are always on Monday aren't they?[/QUOTE]

[quote name='handsomepete']While the most common day for sure it really varies by store and workload. I have two that usually do electronics clearance updates Friday morning and two that do clearance on Sundays. No idea when the mothership sends down prices, I always assumed it was Sunday morning.[/QUOTE]

I promise, it really isn't set in stone (and it also isn't automatic). Mondays are a good guideline, but you need to know your stores to find out how and when they do clearance for certain.
 
Don't know if this has been mentioned and I'm on the iPhone so I can't really search this thread but I just found:

Original Assassin's Creed PS3 greatest hits for 5.98.
 
[quote name='Romeo']jukka, where are you? New drops are always on Monday aren't they?[/QUOTE]

I'm in California, but those are just what I noticed today. The Targets around me are pretty sporadic at when stuff is marked down.
 
I'm hoping that it's just Monday when I find some new marked down games, but my odds of getting MGS will be slim since there is only one copy and I live in a town of 150 thousand plus people.
 
[quote name='Romeo']jukka, where are you? New drops are always on Monday aren't they?[/QUOTE]

i think it varies with different stores.

But will need to see if NHK 2012 and SF x Tekken finally dropped at our local store and if anything new came in.
 
just picked up dark souls ps3 for $5 on clearance
street fighter x tekken ps3 is still $19.98 as of this morning
assassin's creed 3 collector's edition ps3 rang up $120 or whatever so it isn't on clearance at my target.
 
[quote name='JokerCard']Picked up Metal Gear HD for $11.98. Only copy left.[/QUOTE]
Same here.

Spotted the last copy a few days ago, went back this morning and someone did a poor job at pulling off the red sticker.
Grabbed it before they could come back.

They can help themselves to the stacks of DJ Hero 2 and MoH.
:lol:

Thank you for the heads up. I will check them out tomorrow!
 
[quote name='nas6034']Unless SFxT is $9.98 (1 cent cheaper than MS BF price) it isn't worth it.[/QUOTE]

Omg will people just stfu about the Microsoft sale

One Microsoft only had 360 games, and it was a fucking Black Friday sale. I am so sick of people bringing this up in every single thread on this site.
 
[quote name='zillionandnine']Random curiosity ... For those of you who have found blu-rays in clearance, are these usually put with the video game clearance or somewhere else?[/QUOTE]

In my experience they have been on the same end cap as the video games.

Quick question: How do you find out what the clearance price is if the sticker is rip off? I am still mad I missed out on a Collecter's Editiion of Uncharted 3 cause nobody in the electronic section knew how to find it.
 
[quote name='kinney_bmx']Omg will people just stfu about the Microsoft sale[/QUOTE]

No. We discuss deals here. And while that one is obviously no longer valid, it helped to set precedents; by that I mean "oh, so and so game was $10 during MS's sale so I bet it will be $10 again" blah blah
 
I don't think you should really be using BF deals as a bench mark. Its like a once a year deal that you likely wont get again for a long time on those games.
 
[quote name='dark_inchworm']No. We discuss deals here. And while that one is obviously no longer valid, it helped to set precedents; by that I mean "oh, so and so game was $10 during MS's sale so I bet it will be $10 again" blah blah[/QUOTE]

No we discuss target here! You discuss Microsoft's BF sale in the deal graveyard.
 
Stopped by my Target tonight. Nothing in clearance worth buying. They did have a few copies of 360 Transformers FOC for $42 but that it not good. I did find a copy of Far Cry 3 for the PS3 but it would not ring up so the guy took it back. Oh Target...
 
Didn't see it in the OP but yesterday I saw:

Wii Play Motion w/ Wiimote $24.98

Passed on it since I don't use the Wii often but it's a decent deal. Would pick it up at 75% if it drops today.
 
[quote name='kinney_bmx']Omg will people just stfu about the Microsoft sale

One Microsoft only had 360 games, and it was a fucking Black Friday sale. I am so sick of people bringing this up in every single thread on this site.[/QUOTE]

I would think that comment would be less about that sale and more about how the crap that is SFxT isn't worth any more than that.
 
[quote name='WV Matsui']No we discuss target here! You discuss Microsoft's BF sale in the deal graveyard.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I meant the website in general, as I took the complaint to mean "Please stop talking about this anywhere at any time"

Also, taking what you say literally, I assume discussing the quality of Target's home furnishing offerings is fair game here?
 
[quote name='HydroX']At my store there's TONS of :ps3: Medal of Honor at $5.98 -- literally over 20 copies.[/QUOTE]

Still waiting for my location to drop.
 
picked up sfxt :ps3: for 8.98 today. 207 24 0629

p.s. registers are printing coupons now for $25 off a Vita with ps3 game purchase.

p.p.s. to answer dark_inchworm's question, sometimes people do chatter about cheap vacuums/diapers/mixers whatever. I don't think it's generally frowned upon since it doesn't get out of hand (I'm sure you were just being shmarmy, but thar ya go)

I'll need to head out there today. Never saw the PS3 version, just the XB360 only. Hopefully it's at our store....
