I think it's over too. I visited two San Jose Targets and both had nothing. Looks like they have the aisles cleaned up too. I did however find one Ninjago polybag that rang up as not in system. I took it to the customer service. The guy at first said $4 like the TS army man polybag but I got him to do it for $2 instead. Minor score.

Local Goodwill had nada.

Hit three different locations in the Metro Phoenix area. Only one had anything on sale. Was told to come back next week to see if anything is on sale.

Based on my reading of the deal forums, this sale usually takes place during a window of a few short hours on the last Thursday of July (it is even bigger in January). This held true at least here in Austin. I used the forums to hit my local Target on Thurs July 28 but could not get there right at 8 a.m. to get the full panoply of Lego pickings. I was happy to find a Fire Ship on clearance for $12.48 from $49.99, though. There was also a World Racers Blizzard's Peak on sale for $29.99 (50%) but didn't buy that. Have to save money for Marvel/DC superhero sets for the kids for Christmas!

Hit up a target in my town and found prison tower rescue for 12.48, wasn't marked and the last one on the self, prob thinking it was found in the back, or recently returned. Not really into kingdoms but for that price couldn't resist!

I've been to 4 or 5 in the MA area and only found a couple of things including the Technic Motorcycle for $20, TS Trash Compactor for $12.50, Ultimate Blue Bucket set for $12.50, Kingdoms prison carriage for $2.50, and a small Atlantis set for $2.50. I think most of the good stuff is gone by now though.

If anybody has an extra Hagrid's Hut, Dobby's Release or any of the 2011 HP sets,and wants to trade, send me a PM. Any of the above are available as well as the Hogwarts Express set I got at KMart :D

Wow, you've been busy! Thanks for the info! I haven't been to those stores. I hope to hit Stoughton tomorrow, but don't have much hope that there is anything left.

That's some driving. All in one day? I could see Somerville, Saugus, and Winthrop in one go and then Danvers and Salem. The only real outlier is Methuen.

Lol, no, not all in one day. I meant to say Salem, NH, not MA. Though my buddy went to the Salem, MA on Friday and didn't see anything.

I work in Saugus and the Target is only about a mile away, so I went to that one on Thursday. I also forgot to mention Woburn, which I also went to on Thursday because I had an appointment in the area. On Friday I had to go to Winthrop and Charlestown for work so I hit the Somerville and Winthrop ones. Then on Saturday, I went to Methuen and Salem, NH since they're relatively close. My wife wanted to go to Richardsons on 114 on Sunday, so we went to the Danvers Target afterwards. The only other one I wanted to go to is the one in Haverhill, but I didn't get a chance to get out there.

I'll be going back to Woburn today, so I'll stop in again to see if anybody returned anything worthwhile.

Don't forget to check behind all the sets and behind toys in different aisles. I found a 50% off Technic motorcycle hidden behind the Technic helicopter and nobody would have known since the boxes are the same size and color.

I noticed last week that there was some rogue clearance toys over by the electronics/seasonal (goggles/camping) department on the endcaps. No Lego but it is possible that the clearance stuff could be in an "odd" place. And yes, always search the entire Lego aisle and behind the boxes. That's how I found the Garage for 50% off last year!

So last week I returned an extra airport that I bought at 30% off. I went late, just before closing and they told me I couldn't rebuy it at the new 50% off (which I knew from here). I went in the AM but couldn't get there at opening so it was gone. :( I hope someone here found it!

I stopped at the Woburn Target again and found a Creator mini helicopter set for $1.26 unmarked at an end cap. I couldn't leave it all alone :D

Remember to check local goodwill if your target clearance is empty.

I checked Stoughton, MA today and all they had was a crushed City Airplane, I didn't scan it b/c we have it and a few medium sized Atlantis sets at 50% off. The shelf stickers were still there, but no product.

They had the City Tank Truck and Camper shelf spots w/ a clearance sticker, but I haven't seen those in months. My stores seem to be done.

I checked the Westborough, MA Target this afternoon. Completely devoid of any discounted Lego.
