[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 1997421, member: 6592"] Same here. I was at Target on Thanksgiving night, 2011, to get a LG Optimus V smartphone for my Virgin Mobile account. Waited two hours (and forgot my gloves-brrrr!) and when I finally was let in (they let in about 20 every 30 seconds) I went right to electronics. There were three phones left on an end cap and an associate was giving one of them to a woman. A man next to me said "I'll take the other two," which got me pissed since the ad said "limit one", so I spoke up and said, "didn't the ad say one phone per customer?" The associate said, "Yeah, that's right" and handed me the next phone. I immediately went to checkout and then to my car. Total time in store? About 10-12 minutes. I barely had time to thaw out my hands, but I got the phone I wanted for $80 off ($49.95 vs. $129.95). I think it was worth the effort-[I]once[/I]. Update: I strolled into the Target here in BA at about 2:30 PM. I went back to the electronics section and there were about four of the BF sale Kyocera Rise phones on a hook. A quick check confirmed they were still $29.99, so one followed me home! [/QUOTE]
