I don't think we can take credit for taking down Target's inventory system. I was in a store at 8:30am CDT and their inventory check was down already at that point. The website was still working for me around 9am, but I'd say they've been having problems all day, long before the pace really picked up in this thread.

So here's my story. Checked the online inventory last night, one store about 2 hours from here showed limited availability. Too far, pass. Woke up this morning sick as a dog with a cold, checked the online inventory not expecting to find anything, but wouldn't you know it, most of the stores in my area show limited availability. One in Appleton, one in Oshkosh, two in Green Bay, etc. So I throw on some clothes, start to head out the door with my 7 month old daughter, and wouldn't you know it, she has filled her diaper. Changer her diaper, zip across town.
As I'm walking into Target, I see a guy walking out with the jets. :-( If that dude is a tanker, I was the guy carrying a baby with a strange look on his face (equal parts envy, congratulations, sadness, and joy that these finally hit the stores). So I go to customer service and they radio back, but no more in stock. They can't check any other stores either because their inventory system is down. Go back home, have a 9am meeting for work. While I'm on that call, with my phone muted I'm calling the Green Bay Targets and both have them in stock one hour after opening! Here's the secret, "Can you please put them on 24 hour hold? Thanks." Picked up one set of jets for myself, and one for my 5 year old nephew. He'll be in heaven when I see him on Sunday to watch the Packers game. So, moral of the story, the online inventory is dead accurate, but if the store is open it is quite possible that what shows as available has been sold by the time you call or go in. They could also be on 24 hour hold for someone like me (sorry folks in Green Bay, but you had an hour before I called and I am positive these will be restocked so better luck next time, and "Now you know!"). Don't drive to the store, call and have them put on hold. Target has a 24 hour hold, at least all the Targets around here do. Good luck everyone the Rattler kicks butt... the Conquest I never had as a kid and I'm not digging it as much, but that's probably because the Rattler is just so darn good. |
