Christmas in July Deals not so Great?

[tinkmom2]

Today is the supposed "big" shopping day for Christmas in July. So far I have been to Toys R Us and Target online and the deals aren't really that great. I was able to get a good deal at the DisneyStore though. There is a 20 percent friends and family discount today enter code DISNEYFAN.

I checked out Target this morning and didn't see anything that was that great of a deal or any different than what the sale price has been all week.

Shhhhhhhhhhh...........Christmas in July isn't really a holiday. I am a pretty big recreational shopper but I will be mortified at the state of our country if Black July Friday or whatever becomes the huge hoopla that the REAL Black Friday is, and even THAT is way blown out of proportion and nuts how Christmas..one day..is now at risk of turning into a 5 month event.

I;m checking online but coming up with squat. I'd love to get some shopping done gradually... but to no avail.

I didn't see anything I liked either. I think maybe Target layed a goose egg with this one.!

Yea, our Super Target had crap for toys. It took up about 1/3 of an aisle and only 30% off.

I thought the Target deals were online only? Are they having a sale in store too?

The Black Friday thing was online only, but they have a clearance aisle for toys (although there isn't much there). I thought the online BF sale this AM at Target was pathetic. Really glad I didn't set my alarm for 3 AM to shop.

I'm with all of you ! Target had crap for their "Black friday in July". It's like someone cleaned out the stock room of all the leftovers. They only had 1 blu ray player. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come for the real one.....

And Toys R Us, I keep getting "in store only" deals....but nothing online. Our TRU is way out of the way to go for the "deals" they're advertising.

I did get some stuff on Disney.com though for birthdays and Christmas. That seemed to be the best deal out there.....
