Are you concerned about overspending during your Target shopping trip? It’s not uncommon for a quick visit to Target to end up costing more than expected. However, understanding Target’s markdown schedule can make a significant difference. Those little yellow clearance stickers can lead you to some fantastic in-store deals. While predicting markdowns can be tricky, especially with recent changes in Target’s clearance strategy, there are helpful tips and tricks to navigate this terrain.
Getting acquainted with the clearance patterns at your local Target store can result in significant savings. Generally, Target performs markdowns throughout the week, from Monday to Friday. After the initial markdown, further reductions typically occur every two weeks, depending on the item and inventory. However, it’s worth noting that this schedule can vary across stores, so it’s beneficial to familiarize yourself with the specific patterns at your local Target.
Properly understanding a Target clearance tag can provide insights on whether to wait for a larger discount. The clearance sticker’s upper right corner indicates the discount percentage (30%, 50%, or 70%). In the middle of the sticker, you’ll find a 9-digit number known as the DPCI, which can be used to check the inventory at other stores.
