  Target clearances greater than 75% off?
 
I ask this because a month or so ago I found one 7127 AT-ST for 66¢. Now I have a few sets at Target waiting for me that are now hovering at the 75% off range. Has anyone *ever* noticed incredibly low prices on sets at Target? I'm curious because if (...) (22 years ago, 30-Oct-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Not on Lego, but they do that with Christmas merchandise. After christmas it starts at 50%, then moves to 75%, then 90%.

This year they moved to 75% a week early; I happened in the next day and spent perhaps $500. In previous (...) (22 years ago, 30-Oct-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I was under the impression that a price ending in the number 4 signified the final markdown. That is, until the Hagrid's Huts, which at $6.98 were 75% off. I didn't dare wait to see if they came down further because the few I did manage to (...) (22 years ago, 31-Oct-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Yep, I've heard that a lot; this factoid and the "75% off is final" factoid were/are very common among the action figure crowd. However, the 90% discounts I can recall came after a 75% markdown ending in 4, and themselves ended in 4. I recall (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
