This is sheer awesomeness! Until December 12, you should be able to get a DS at Target for only $99 bucks! Saving thirty bucks means that you can afford an extra game.

I think I found my birthday present. >_>;

Also: if you have trouble getting the people at Target to honor this, go to Circuit City, where they will price match it, and even take off another 10%. XD

A similar thing happened to me ages ago, I was returning Silent Scope 2, and decided to get another game for it. SS2 was 30pounds, so I could choose anything for equal price.

I saw Bloody Roar 3 on the shelf, advertised for 30 pounds, and took it to the counter, at which the person on the counter said '40 pounds for this game'.

I showed him the sticker said 30, and he had to sell me it for that price, even though it should have cost 10 pounds more.

So, yeah, if you see something advertised with 2 different prices, get the cheapest one http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Something like that is the reason I got Golden Sun. It was supposed to be $29.95, but the sticker on all the boxes said $9.95. I protested when they scanned it, that the scan didn't match the sticker. The store's policy was whatever the sticker says, that's what you pay, so I got it for $20 less. Good times.

The catalog is online only, I think.

It is online only. YOu'll need to bring a screenshot of it into the store with you.

For those who didn't want to open the original link set up by the poster, go to this link http://catalog.target.com/december/

type in DS in the little box on the left hand side of the screen, and the first link should be for a DS for $99.00

Looks like I get a second DS now.

If you have a hard time with the managers at any Target location honoring this price, have them call (800) 440-0680 for verification.
