Target Toy Sale: Buy 1 Get 1 Half Price on all toys

I was more lamenting that I personally can't afford it rather than saying it was a bad price

There's always organ donation if you can't afford it. You don't have to stop at just yours - any family member will work

C'mon Sky Lynx. Come to daddy Target.

At Target Dandenong today they had shelf tags with mark down prices on several TF lines (which would make the buy one and get one half price deal better).

AOE legions $3
RID Minicons $5
RID One Step $10

$300, I guess that's ok, but wasn't there meant to be other stores getting the G2 sets? Might see what their prices are before I commit that much of my TF funds.

A note about Target's buy one get one half price sale. It charges you the more expensive item 100% and gives you 50% off the less expensive one.

Let's say you by four items. Item one and two are $40 each. Items three and four are $15 each. You would expect the register to work it out like this for the best deal:

Item 1: $40
Item 2: $20 (half price)
Item 3: $15
Item 4: $7.50 (half price)
Total $82.50

Instead Target's registers work this way (the best deal for Target because you pay an extra $12.50):

Item 1: $40
Item 2: $40
Item 3: $7.50 (half price)
Item 4: $7.50 (half price)
Total: $95

Hint: put item 1 and 2 through together as transaction one and 3 and 4 together as transaction two.

That's how all these deals work. As someone that works retail I rarely have a customer that doesn't understand it's off the cheapest items, but there is the odd person the doesn't.

Doesn't 'donation' mean I'm giving it for free

Doesn't 'donation' mean I'm giving it for free

Tell that to major financial donors to the political parties.
