$30 PS3 Tiger Woods 13 Collectors Edition @ Target!

CAG Veteran
I went into Target today and found the new Tiger Woods game for PS3 with a $30 clearance sticker on it. So i ask the cashier as I'm buying it what the deal was and he had no clue, so regardless I swooped it up. Anyone else finding this clearance deal?
 
This has to be YMMV if true, the Target I work at has yet to mark these down and they typically do mark downs on Mondays, the pricing team doesn't even work on Sundays.
 
this is in the target clearance thread. the ones I've seen have been 34.98 though.
will head back and see what they are tomorrow morning if they're still around.

edit: target usually clearances all of their collectors/special editions rather quickly after release. probably just so they don't have to plan them into their displays.

totally YMMV.

I found one at $34.98 today on clearance.
 
I like how people ask if there's a way to check online without bothering to go to Target.com

360 - 207-22-0808
PS3 - 207-24-0808

I think we can take the YMMV out of the thread title - this seems to be everywhere. I snapped up the last 360 at Medina, OH - still 2 copies for PS3 at 34.98. Lots of other upgrade editions on clearance as well like RDR for 19.98 and Fallout NV Ultimate for 24.98. Thanks much OP!

You mean ADD YMMV to the thread title. Not everyone is finding this deal.

And, NOT for $30(but, for $34.98). This thread is slung together.
 
Hmm, both stores here locally have the game in stock. Maybe I'll wander over and see if they have it clearanced.
 
Is there a reason why they would clearance the PS3 version and not the 360? I don't normally buy golf games, but I'd like to try it with Kinect.

AFAIK, both versions are being clearanced out. And it is very YMMV. The first Target I stopped at this morning still had it for reg price, the second had it marked at clearance price. I got a 360 version.

Both versions are on clearance at some stores if you are lucky enough to find them. They both have been reported in the Target clearance thread. Hoping to find one today but who knows if I'll luck out. Appears to be one of those random Target screw ups that happen with some new releases. Probably related to the fact that there are 2 versions of the same game out at once.
 
Tiger Woods Collectors edition? LOL Does it come with a paper with white girls phone numbers? That would be the only reason I would buy it......
 
This reminds me of when the $90 Collectors Edition of Madden 09 with Farve on the cover,the following Monday after its release the week before Target had it for $45. I'm sure some CAGs remember that day as it was a mad dash to get it lol.
 
My local target had it full price on Saturday and $35 today for both consoles. Grabbed the PS3 edition for the extra move support.

I've never owned/played a golf game besides Hot Shots. The reviews for this new game are pretty bad... did I make a good choice here?

Also, these were in plastic coffins with weird black nubs sticking out that dig into the case ruining the game. And if this is a collectors edition, where's the damn steelbook packaging?!

Aw man if you could snag me a 360 version I would forever be grateful!
 
OP should edit title for YMMV language. All the newbies are gonna bust their nut and run to Target to only be disappointed and waste their time.

It's EA sports, a collectors edition to them has all the content the normal game should have had. In this case that's extra golf courses.

I considered getting it for 360 but grabbed PS3 for the movie support. What also pushed me over the edge was all of the 360 hard plastic coffins were digging into the back of the game case. I've seen those destroy game cases before!


I may be heading back to that target tomorrow, I'll see what I can do for you. :)
 
2 targets in pasadena, ca didn't even have it.

1 target in alhambra, ca had it but rang up at $79.99

Anybody in the LA area having better luck?
 
confirmed at the liberty/kc mo target. 2 360 versions left, grabbed the last ps3 version, 34.98 was the price.

207 24 0808 dcpi # for ps3 version for whoever is interested
 
Snagged 2!

Hell yes! One for me and one for my buddy! $68.xx with my Red Card!

Thanks OP, even though I check the clearance thread daily I would have missed this! :)
 
Managed to find one at the Target next to my house which normally doesn't have these kind of mark downs. Big thanks to the OP. Just makes me glad I decided to wait for a sale on this and not pick it up right away.

Which location was that at?
 
I'm kind of surprised there are so many golf fans here, and even still at $35, not $15 or $10. If I didn't still have TW 12 unopened from that bb move deal, I might have searched this out though.

Well a 50% off deal on an item the week after release will get almost any CAG interested, plus most people are already making their Target clearance runs today.

The game is always good, but it is hindered by the typical EA shenanigans since they have no real competition in the genre. They don't really do much to improve the game year to year, but they do have motion support on both platforms now so I guess that is sort of an upgrade. The recent trend to take courses off the disc and offer them as overpriced day 1 dlc is their latest cash grab, but if you can snag the CE with all the dlc courses included for less than the standard version's retail price that is a pretty good deal to me.
 
Snagged one of six 360 versions. In store price checker said they had the PS3 version but I couldn't find it in the aisle where it said it was (nor was it in clearance like the 360 version was)
 
my closest store has the worst clearance section possible. they have so few electronics deals, they put the deodorant and fragrance clearance with the games

not interested enough to drive to the other stores in the Omaha area

Target at 141 and Clayton. When I left they had one PS3 and one 360 left.
 
Wow...no go for me at Target. PS3 version had a clearance tag/sticker, but the Xbox 360 version was regular price...had the clerk take it out of the case and scan it for me and everything. Drat!
 
Snagged a 360 version at the Highland, IN location. Clearanced at $35 and there was one more left after I got mine.
