Target buy 2, get 1 free sale returns, starting Sunday (usually around 3am EDT).  Video games, movies, board games and books seem to be included.

 

Hopefully select preorders are included as well like in last sales.

 

Also, don't get your hopes up too much as I am sure there will be exclusions like most 1st party Nintendo and 1st party Sony PS5 games.

 

What are you hoping to get?

[Shadowmoses12]

Nothing they will be the same old games like before.

Mario Rabbids, nothing good for switch or ps4/5 games

[Smithers123]

Saw this via SD. The last 2 times they had this promo Sony exclusives such as Tsushima and Last of US 2 didn't qualify....

Note: Excludes select video games, pre-order and new release movies, and LEGO. Items can be from any combination of movies, books, video games, board games, activity sets and puzzles. Lowest-priced item will be free. Quantities limited; no rain checks.

hope gg strive qualifies.

[KaneRobot]

Never buy games whenever this sale hits but usually pick up some 4k or Blu Ray discs.

[SlaughterX]

Fucking knew I should have waited to buy Nier and Nocturne.   Ugh!

Wonder if PS5/SX games will qualify...

I probably should have waited to buy Nier R. too lol oh well. Last time I got Godfall (still haven't touched it), Cold War, and Cyberpunk, all pre-orders. I'm excited to see what pre-orders are available this time.

[drmelzar]

And still haven't touched Cyberpunk, was waiting for PS5 upgrade. But clearly because I got Godfall last time, ps5 worked last time, so we will see what ps5 titles qualify this time. LFG Target!

[Shadow Cloud]

Wonder if PS5/SX games will qualify... 

First party PS5 games like Demon's Souls, Miles Morales, and Sackboy Big Adventure has always been excluded. I'm not expecting Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart or Returnal to be included, but I would like to be proven wrong by Target.

Remember when Target had a buy 1 get 2 free sale? Good times.

[vicious7171]

EXCLUSIONS:

That game you want

That other game you'd buy to get one free

 

The one you wanted to get for free

[Momouchi]

The preorders and cancelling makes this worth it. Hope it still works

[Hypebeast69]

Let’s see what’s gone b on sale and if there are even some decent pre orders

[ZForce]

I had Samurai Warriors 5 and the new Binding of Isaac for Switch preordered in the last sale and they got cancelled because "There was an issue with fulfillment" or something.

That's Target slang for: Their employees decided they wanted them so shaq-fu you, the customer. Instead, they will pile them up in the back of the store for when their employees' checks come in next Friday.

Whatever. They're more than entitled to do so. Those employees barely get a living wage, deal with assholes, and worked to supply essential products on the frontline during the pandemic.

What the did you do?

[drmelzar]

I'm in health care buddy.

I'm in health care buddy.

If you are, then that makes your comment exponentially worse.

[drmelzar]

It was also meant as a joke. I've actually previously worked at Target for a short time. Don't mean to offend anyone. I will hold any jokes in your presence from now on lol.

[Mattiful-Joe]

Like the B2G1. Retailers don't really do this anymore, except Target. Amazon does it, but really just to match Target.

[Mattiful-Joe]

Double post

[Shadowmoses12]

Are 4k movies usually part of the buy 2 get 1 free promotion

[Mattiful-Joe]

Yup.

[drmelzar]

Does anyone know if figures are a part of it? I don't think they are, but board games are sort of toys in a way so didn't know how far that stretched. A friend asked me earlier, told him didn't think so but would try to find out about past years. I've never tried to buy figures during b2g1

To my knowledge, action figures have never worked for this promo.  The best that you can expect from Target with toy sales is the "buy $50 and save $10/get a $10 gift card" deals, and those usually happen around Easter and a few weeks before Christmas to get rid of old stock.

[drmelzar]

Ah good point yes I've seen those sales before. Thanks! Friend keeps asking me to check my local Target for a specific GI Joe figure. I didn't start down that rabbit hole and it sounds like a tough game to get into.

The new Joes are 6 inches and cost $20 a pop.  They're closer to the size of the Marvel figures.  I know that there is a smaller version that's closer to the original 3 3/4 inch scale, but I've only seen those at Walmart with the vehicles and such.  Action figures is an expensive hobby.

[drmelzar]

The Snake Eyes with Timber looks pretty slick. I don't have any of them but I could see myself picking that one up. I don't have very high hopes for the upcoming movie but I definitely plan to check it out regardless, like the very mediocre Joe game that came out fairly recently. Played it off of inertia but wow was it not memorable. Enjoyed the PS3 one a lot more.

Thanks for the heads up op
