That's great information to have, thank you so much! I'm going to stalk

my Target toy department today and will report back.

I'm thinking either this coming Wednesday or Thursday might be *the* day. Anyone else?

It just stinks that different areas of the states have markdowns at different times.

Okay, I'm back from my Target in MA. The vast majority of the toys weren't even marked down yet. A lot were still 30%, but the better deals were:

50% -stuffed animals, Diego and Dora toy sets, Thomas Cranky the Crane set and Runaway Mine set, Bedtime Curious George (I got one for DD..I think he yawns and plays a song or something

75%- Hannah Montana dolls, Transformers keychains, Mutant Ninja Turtles, Incredible Hulk talking toy, Little Einsteins dolls, toys and batons (but not the rocket ship that my son is hoping for!) , Ba Ba Elmo, TMX (??) Elmo....

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Meant to take notes, but DH had abandoned me and the kids to look in Sporting Goods, DD was tantruming and I was a bit frazzled!

Has anyone checked today? I plan on swinging by there tonight. I am hoping that they started the mark downs today.

I haven't checked today. I'm thinking it will be Wed or Thurs, but I plan on checking first thing tomorrow morning just in case. I can tell you though that if they did go to 75% off this morning and you go tonight you probably won't find much. The 75% off FLIES of the shelf. People buy cart loads at a time.

Will someone who loves me pm me at the first sign that they've all gone to 75% off? Puh-lease? That way I don't miss it.

I was there today and ran into a fellow pre-school mom I know, turns out she works there and I asked her when they were going to be marked down to 75% off and she said I don't know but then wispered to me after another target member left check Thurs.!! Yay! So Thurs for me I will def. be checking! Wisconsin store.

I was at Target today and they said it was definitely this week, but they didn't know what day. They were emptying an isle in the toy dept like they did last year. I am going back to check tomorrow since every area seems to be different!
