The store I went to today had 4 units in stock in the glass cases, none showing on the website. They're also now popping up for in-store for 'Pickup' if you can click the 'store near you' hotlink below that greyed out button. (YMMV, prolly depending on your area)

But some stores do have them in-person. The store also didn't have any sale signage out. This is just like how they used to set aside consoles / units for the Sunday advertisement.

Looks like no b2g1 next week. Atleast if going by the ad. And the b1 g1 50% may go on next week too?

Either "bogo" is not good, unless some prices drop.

How confident are we in a buy2, get1 free this month? I wonder if this buy1 get1 50 percent is all we're getting.

Last two years the b2g1 was the 2nd week of October. So if follows that pattern doesn't look good. Plus it's odd they would have this b1 g1 half off the second week. It seems like it could be what's in its place.

May get another sale in November. I think target didn't really have much of a black Friday sale last year but instead had a b2g1

I got $15 off $75 purchase stacked with b1g1, looks like I’m going to go big on some of the 4K preorders.

It looks like few if any of the titles I had saved qualifies for this B1G1. Oh well.

That’s exactly what I did for Pulp Fiction 4K and Reservoir Dogs 4K. Then, I just matched them with Superman 4K and Ex Machina 4K.

I'm looking at possibly

Pulp Fiction 4K
Reservoir Dogs 4K
The Woman King 4K
Nope 4K

or

Pulp Fiction 4K
Reservoir Dogs 4K
Nope 4K
Pearl

or

Pulp Fiction 4K
Reservoir Dogs 4K
Nope 4K
Red Rocket

I'm holding out for a B2G1. My husband got the $15 off a $75 purchase (I got $30 for 4 purchases of $90 -- uh, no thank you), so I used his offer to buy coffee. A lot of it, which got me a $10 gift card.

My 15% off Circle offer even stacks with it. Plus 5% red card.

I can actually get the bundle offer for $195 out the door right now because of the Team Member discount. But that would only be like $215 otherwise. That's the best deal on a console so far this year and it's not close. You could even sell the controller.

thanks for sharing! my brother's bday is next month and this was actually available for my store.

Not available at my store or shipping

I would have placed a few orders with the B1G1 50% to trigger my Circle reward, but the selection is too limited.

It really sucks, only really old stuff and puss n boots lol

[ronboster]

Ended up with 1 order, bought Nope 4k w/ the book Confidence Man. Added about $30 of men's care products, which triggered the $10 off $60 purchase and $5 gift card for buying $25 or more in health and personal care products. So $27 savings.

Too soon to lose confidence on whether we'll see a B2G1. I think we will, still, but I can understand Target not being terribly interested in doing as many.

Just from a practical standpoint (inventory notwithstanding), average consumers are NOT buying blurays/UHDs so they're not driving much traffic online or to stores. Consistent with that reality, Targets barely carry any product in-store, so it makes even less sense to offer the promotion in the first place, let alone waste much ad space on it.

That all said, I still think we'll see at least one later closer to the holidays, but these are probably going to be a rarer promo moving forward due simply to what the sales numbers/trends are.

Yah November makes more sense at this point. Last two years there was one in October and 2 in november.November. I'm thinking this b1 get 1 half off take sthe place of the October one.

So question.

I placed an order before activating my circle bonus. And then activated it and placed a second order.

My first order has now shipped and I have 1 of the 2 purchase stamps on my circle.the second order has yet to ship.

Do you think my first order have the first stamp even though I activated the bonus after placing the order?

Or was it from my second order? I ask because I didn't think the stamps showed until an order shipped.

The order before activating the bonus does not count. I think somewhere in the instructions says as much.
