Well, you know with this price hike, along with them offering $5 dollar coupons and then when people actually start to use them, they yank them away and Target's new implemented policy with a kind little note on the pegs that says Target is no longer catering to collectors...
Well, then I say we no longer cater to their profits... They're just shooting themselves in the head..I say give it 5 years and Wal-Mart buys them out... Thankfully, my Wal-Mart is 3 times closer, has better stock, lower prices, and no bs to deal with like Target... Saboteur |

yeah but wal-mart started this increase stuff initially. then when everyone else has these high prices they lower theirs so everyone flocks to them. its typical wal-mart tactic, hence why i have not shopped there since i spotted wave 7 and passed on em earlier this year.

If my Toys R Us can keep its prices down to $7, they might end up with a small, much-needed victory against the super-stores.

see I get that oil is higher and so on...but do they honestly think people are going to buy it if they raise the price with the way the economy is? It's a catch 22 I guess. Costs go up so they raise the price, but then less people can afford to buy it so they lose even more money.
on a side note about Target annoying us lately. Yesterday was my girlfriend's brother's birthday. He got the Wii Mario Kart and she wanted to get him an extra wheel (in addition to a couple other things). Well, TRU had it for $15, best buy for $13, and target and walmart had for basically $10 each...except target and walmart had none. I called a target near me today and they tried telling me they had them for $15...how? We went to 2 targets in the general area yesterday and the tags said $9.99. Well, I found a walmart that had them and got it for the $10...ridiculous. BTW, all the systems I've checked say the vehicle exclusives are on clearance for $2.48! I've checked this at 4 - 5 targets here...but wait, they never had any on the shelves anyway.

That would be great, if only my TRU actually had anything worth buying in stock!
