I wonder if Target will honor the 20% discount?  Kaybe and TRU said NO on

I asked this very question at the Target on Kearny Mesa Rd. No go. I was
hoping to walk out with a RBR for $160. That's about the only way I was
getting one of those without my fiance giving me a funny look. And she's an
AFOL.

Seems that I got lucky then:

I got the RBR at Target, price matched to K-Mart. Target did not want
to do it, but then did it anyway. This was on a Sunday evening, with a
large line behind me. Don't know if that helped any.

The Yodas and Gunships came from TRU, also price matched to K-Mart.
TRU did not hesitate to do the price match.

All I can suggest is that you try at a different store, maybe at a
busy time. They may also feel different about it when you are already
at the register, rather than just asking at the service desk.

(...) I think you did get lucky. I might hit a TRU and another Target on my way home and try to replicate your luck. Did you have anything from K-Mart showing the sale? I can't find an ad or anything that shows the sale. Good Work Matt (22 years ago, 2-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)
