one would hope but i doubt it. companies seem to think that raising prices makes people wanna buy more...but i can attest top the fact higher prices equal less spending.lower prices equals people buying more cause its more affordable.

What the hell 8.69! These things are getting way to expensive. The more the prices go up.The less I will buy. Army building will be a thing of the past for me.

Sometimes those price adjustment labels are wrong. I'd take one of those figures to one of their Price Scanners and let it read the UPC, then get the price.
I haven't seen this price hike yet...

Seems like the only reason to buy the single-carded figs would be during a sale. The upcoming TRU sale better have the Doc wave and Alpha vehicles w2!

yeah...they scanned that price too. 8.69!!! Not even worth buyin a figure unless it's so hard to find that you can't leave it there. It's not going to last. Obviously it's to expensive. I noticed the Marvel figs were 8.99 too. Maybe they are trying to see how much they can get. But it doesn't make sense if HTS sells them or 7.99 and they are 8.69. I'd pay the 7.99 even with the shipping just out of spite.

The Target website still has them for $7.99. This for example.
But then again, If you were to tell this to a Target employee, they might just say "We don't price match with our online store." Kinda dumb. If you're lucky, you can probably find someone like a guest service team lead to take your side and have the price adjusted. Might be too much effort, but then again depending on what you're getting....

Here's a better example.
If you printed something like this out and showed the price but also the fact that it lists the item as being stores only, then indicate that they all use the same DPCI, this basically becomes your price over-ride coupon.
