If items take too long to sell, Target will donate them to Goodwill (!)
Blogger Lara Parker at BuzzFeed has done us all a solid by revealing some pretty cool ways to save big at everyone's favorite "I popped in for some paper towels and came out with a striped sun hat, three pairs of shorts, a new blender, a 3-hole punch and a bottle of Pinot Grigio" shopping destination.
For instance, did you know that the Minneapolis based retailer has a set schedule for when it marks things down?
Monday: Electronics, Accessories, Kids Clothing, Books, Baby, and Stationery
Tuesday: Domestics, Women's Clothing, Pets and, Market food items
Wednesday: Men's Clothing, Health and Beauty, Diapers, Lawn/Garden items, and Furniture
Thursday: Housewares, Lingerie, Shoes, Toys, Sporting Goods, Decor and Luggage
Friday: Auto, Cosmetics, Hardware, and Jewelry
Also, if a clearance price ends in $0.06 or $0.08, the item will be further reduced, but if it ends in $0.04 that's as low as it's going to go. If items take too long to sell, Target will donate them to Goodwill.
Then there're these fun facts: Within a calendar year, you can only return $75 worth of goods without a receipt. Also, REDcard holders (a Target-based debit card that gives you 5% off every purchase) get an additional 30 days to return items.
