Be careful about that 8am bit. One Target that I hit fairly regularly (but • not

a fair amount of stuff just sitting there are the deep discount.

Rule of thumb:  Check early and check often.  Unfortunately it seems as
though our local Target stores won't have much for the next round of
clearance as much of it has been gobbled up at 30% off already.
