No sign, but green dot stuff scanned at .25 instead of a dollar.

Got tons of paperback Sesame Street books, figurines for 18months+, triangular crayons, gift bags, cards, socks, kids' sunglasses.

HTH someone!

Nice! Thanks for sharing! I might have to stop in there to check it out tomorrow... (sounds like some good stocking stuffers!)

I got a bunch of character socks, sunglasses and books at 30% off at one store earlier last week, then yesterday I was at our other store and they had the 75% off. Got a few more socks and Sesame St. books but not much else. I'll be back at the first store again tomorrow, will have to check what's left there. Can't beat stocking stuffers for .25!

Star Wars alert- they also had some Star wars dry erase boards, 3-d stickers and glow in the dark stickers that were green dot- all .25 cents each.

Was this in the Dollar section? And does anyone know if the star wars yoyo were .25 cents as well?

It would be perfect for our goody bag!

Much Thanks,
Matt n James Mom

Yes, in the dollar section, but those 3 things were the only Star Wars items I saw (I'm always on the look out these days)

Thanks! Were any of the Sesame Street figurines and plastic dishes green dot? I have had my eye on them for a future birthday party, but couldn't justify buying stuff a year in advance.

How would I know which items are 75% off? I didn't see any green dots (or any other color dots) by the price when I was there today.

The green dot is on the tag -- next to the barcode.

The colored dots are usually on the back of the items so you can tell what is green vs another color. If you don't see the dot, you could try scanning them to see the price.

I went today and they were packing up things with green dots. I had gone to pick up a pair of sock off a shelf and they lady told me they were not for sale. when I asked why she said the items had been there for 2 months and were now "salvage" and they were being shipped out. I was hoping to get some stocking stuffers...no luck.

No green dot items at my store either, they were putting out Christmas items. The Halloween items weren't green and were marked 50% off (but I didn't scan them b/c I didn't need them).

Just as well!

How frustrating! Sounds like maybe yesterday was the last day for green dot?

I wonder why there was no sign (it sounds like) at many stores for this dollar spot clearance...wouldn't it be better to get the stuff sold than salvage it out?

Sorry if I got anyone's hopes up and it didn't work out!

I went today today and found 2 books with green dots under a pile. They wouldn't ring up with a price.
I was so disapointed. I also was looking for favors for my daughters bday.

All green dot stuff was gone at my Target today as well, only Christmas stuff out now. Ah well, I got a bunch earlier at 30% and 75% off, guess I didn't need more!

How did you guys know the green dot was on sale? Did they have a sign?

My store had a sign yesterday. I bought two pairs of reading glasses and popped the lenses out. They're great in the dress-up box. My 17m daughter has been wearing one pair all day.

No sign at either of the Targets I went to on Sunday, but both stores green dot rang up 75%. Only reason I knew to look was saw it mentioned on another site, one of the "coupon mom" type of blogs.

Occasionally I google "dollar spot clearance Target" just to see what comes up.

SO sorry original post got some hopes up and resulted in disappointment -- Target sure is YMMV!

Very interesting -- once again, Target = YMMV!
