My Target toy shelves were wiped out!

[Ren]

And you could shout and hear an echo in the action figure aisle at two different Targets, Batman movie figs, Spectacular Spider Man figs, Star Wars, Pokemon, Mighty Muggs0 etc. GONE!! Everything was wiped out, empty shelf after empty shelf. Just a few Joes, Indiana Jones, and DC infinite figs were

left, I couldn't believe it. Can't wait to see the aisle. after the restock!!

You got lucky. The shelves at mine were still intact, more or less. There were a new selection of Mighty Muggs out and a restock of some GI Joe stuff, but everything was still the same.

My Target was so cleaned out they didn't have anything on the shelves!!

 

Come to think of it, I think it had more to do with not having any Targets in Canada than shoppers. @smilepunch@

My closest Target looks like a bomb went off in it! But they still had the Ultimate Packs at Full-Price!!!

The shelves at several Denver Targets look like a hurricane shot through them. I feel bad for those employees, what a mess. I saw people literally throwing stuff around yesterday, it was crazy, makes you wonder whats wrong with some people.

If they were anything like the people I saw devouring the day-old Christmas merch, they were pretty much old people who didn't give a damn and still walked through the world like retail people actually give a damn about customers. It's amazing the cultural gap there: some people actually think that people remain in retail and get paid well, hence will take any crap shoveled at them.

 

Just my two cents, but a lot of people were being jerks yesterday. After serving many years in the battlefront myself, I put my stuff back and was nice as I could be to the workers. My fellow shoppers, on the other hand, can bite me.

well said! i couldn't believe the mess in the toy aisles, people in their carts just running over stuff. this one lazy woman would rather let a toy drag under the wheel of her cart than just take the time to bend over and pick it up or at least shove it out of the way. i can't stand lazy people!

Yeah, the one target I went to today, was wiped clean!! A couple of JLU packs and somd DCU as well, but for the most part, wiped clean!!! Damn, toys still sell!!

[Cthulhu5k]

I hit another Target today and found that they had more of their GI Joe Ultimate Battle Packs for $54.99. And they were all sitting there, untouched. Good quality, however, but I'm keeping an eye out to see if they drop more.

I think it has a lot to do with the storm and the fact that a lot of the deliveries were delayed. The Target store in Albany is the same. Bare shelves everywhere. People didn't want to leave town to shop and the stores didn't have enough stock before the snow hit...

 

Unfortunately the Battle Packs are on sale now, but they haven't had any for a week...

Mine....the one I work at had tons of JLU figures still left and a moderate amount of Star Wars figures

 

But the Joes and Transformers were blown out

 

Ben 10 and Pokeman were blown away also

 

Indy even though on clearance didn't move as well

[pesatyel]

Mine did a poor job stocking G.I. Joe. I managed to snag some of the new guys about a week before Christmas, and haven't seen squat since.

 

I was more mad about the Transformers exclusives, at first. The Transformers section looked like a wheatfield after a swarm of locusts with nought but those stupid Bumblebees left.
