Hot_Deals

I’ve seen the SH2 Xbox 17.99 at my local store for a month or so. Always check the end caps- they put the clearance stuff there- near the video games.

Just picked up Star Ocean for Xbox at another Target. I also thought these would be in end caps but so far all the ones I’ve seen have been in their usual spots in the glass cases but with yellow clearance price labels. I checked the end caps anyway but no luck there.

Ah. My local stores usually pull them out. I’ll have to start looking in the actual cases as well.

Of course no switch games lol

Ha, didn't stop me from looking! But, yes, no Switch games in this deal.

I went to a couple targets but sadly had no luck. I'll try a couple more. I know it's the longest of odds but if anyone is able to get a Tactics Ogre or Soul Hackers 2 for ps5, I'd love the help.

Went to another one and only thing I saw was Mass Effect Legendary Edition for $5.99. Pretty good deal but didn't really need it since it's on Game Pass. These Targets are pretty barren in the video game sections. Not sure what's going on with them.

I'm headed to a local Target. I'll take a look for you.

Just got back from Target. Many of the shelves were empty. Almost as if someone got there first 😅

The Tactics Ogre Reborn was empty as well, and the employee said that he just sold one. But when I was near the counter he picks up a game that was just lying there and another employee calls out saying "he didn't buy it." And what do you know, it's Tactics Ogre. He asks me if I want it. I thought great, let me buy it. He rings it up, but it came up as on sale for $42.99 or $43.99, not the $14.99. Maybe this clearance thing varies based on location? (I actually asked him if he could scan it again, just in case, but again $40+)

I'm wondering if the person before me had a similar experience, of expecting that 14.99, but not buying it after it rang up for 40+.

Wanted to get you that Tactics Ogre.

Hope you can snag one. Good luck 🍀

That’s weird. I thought this was a national clearance. Was it the PS5 version?

That's beyond kind of you, appreciate that

Target is strange sometimes. They once told me they weren’t affiliated with target.com. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good question. I think it was the PS5 version, but now you're making me second guess myself. I was in the PS5 section looking for it and where that game's slot was empty. The one that the employee found near the counter, well, could it have been the PS4 version? I really don't know. But I didn't see a slot by the PS4 games for Tactics, only by the PS5 games, so I'm leaning more towards it being PS5. But again, no clue.

Sure. Happy to try for you.

Same experience here. All wiped out for the most part, even beyond the sale items. Kind of eerie.

Thats a great price. I wouldve grabbed everything at that price!

Went to the last Target in my area and pretty much same scene of desolation. Hardly any games available. Only thing I saw again was Mass Effect Legendary Edition for $5.99 again. Probably going to be hard to find anything decent at this point.
It’s weird how low their inventory is. It’s almost like they’re trying to wind down their video game departments with the exception of Switch. Every Target I went to was in the same state.

I went to the only other Target in my general area after work today, they had one PS5 Tactics Ogre, it rang up 14.99 clearance. I desperately looked for the other games, to no avail, but I guess I got one.

@akfa Glad to hear you were able to find something. Enjoy!

I got 2 copies of Star Ocean, a PS4 and PS5 copy

My target is status quo. No clearance items game dept is well stocked. I did find a Tonies set for 29.99

Is this clearance still supposed to be going on? I may be up near a Target tomorrow and am happy to look and pickup

Usually they mark down weekly until sold. Just have to find the treasures. Target stores in my area are a disaster- they’ll have video game clearance items on end caps with Easter candy etc.

It's all YMMV.. I've seen Soul Hackers 2 on clearance for awhile but nothing else. My Targets Playstation case is practically empty..

Had to look in the case to find Star Ocean. Wasn't on an end cap or anything.

There’s a super target near where I’m going tonight. I’ll swing by. Usually they have lots more and it’s actually less busy / picked over.

They had spots for tons of 70% off stuff but only mass effect for series was in stock. It’s was 5.99. I left it safely on the shelf and offered to give them 5.99 to get it out of my face.

Mass Effect is pretty crap. Not worth it at all.

I’d say it’s ugly crap. Spent my 5.99 on a Disney slap bracelet.

@akfa Good news. I wasn't able to get Tactics for you, but I was able to get a Soul Hackers 2 for the PS5, if you want it.

Although it's sealed, I noticed that there's movement in the case. Something's sliding around. Is something else packaged inside, like a manual or something else?

My copy of Star Ocean PS4, the disc is loose. It's the disc @nonamesleft . It's pretty common.

Relatively easy to reset the disc if the spindle isn’t broken. Does not damage the disc or case if you get it right.

Thanks

@akfa Was just at the post office to mail your game. The woman says "if you're trying to mail something, our internet is down."

I'll have to go back.

She was just sitting there. Sad that we live in an age where the internet has such a profound effect. Internet down causes a complete halt in certain areas.
