Title: Mega sale at Target!
Post by: ashes on February 06, 2012, 10:26:42 AM
I was at Target this morning, and they are having an awesome sale on FiM toys.

Castle Set: $19.99 (normally $39.99)
Smaller Castle Set: $14.99 (noramally $29.99)
Fashion Ponies: $12.99 (normally $18.79)
Fashion Luna and Celestia: Now I can't remember the price, but it was a pretty good deal too
Castle Friends: $24.99 (Normally $33.79)

So yeah.  If you were looking at any of these sets, now is a pretty good time to buy one!

My fashion ponies have never been $18.79, so I have to wonder how well these sale prices translate country wide...

Ours used to be $14.99, then after Christmas the prices shot up.

Whoa, fashion style ponies are $18.79 in California? They're $13 a piece in Ohio.

I don't know if then it's a regional thing, but they had a sale tag this morning.

I know, it's crazy.

I've only seen them that high at target, so I refrain from buying them there.  Walmart/tru has them for 12-14.99 or so (and I randomly bought pinkie for 7 bucks at walmart, no idea why, she wasn't marked as on sale.)

If the fs princesses are a good sale price, I may buy them. I want luna but couldn't justify 30+ for them

The prices shot up on the fashion ponies after Christmas here too. They are $14.99 :(

I will have to stop by Target and see if they are on sale here!

Sweet!!  I've been really wanting to buy the Castle Friends set..this looks like the perfect time to go get one!  Thanks for posting this :D

I got the Canterlot Castle yesterday!

It was marked $41.99 on the shelf but I took it to a scanner just to check because I had seen it on clearance at another target a couple weeks earlier for thirty something, and it popped up $19.99. I was all "Heck yes! I'm so getting this!"  :thumb:
I always thought over $40 was too much for it, but for $20 I think it was worth it.

Hm, I've never seen Fashion Style's for that much (most I ever saw was $16.99 @ TRU)
and Royal Castle Friends (the one with brushable Celestia?) because that was much less expensive or did you mean the Royal Ball at Canterlot set with the Mane 6?
The Luna/Celestia set (the small one not the FS) did go up at my nearest store though. I got a second one yesterday too to do a head swap on Luna and it was over $11 and I'm almost sure I only paid like $9 something for the 1st one I bought a few months ago.

Anyway.. I hope some of you are also able to take advantage of the deals!  ^.^

Too bad my target doesn't stock pony stuff for beans.

I know!!  I bought the Castle Set yesterday for $19.99, it was $42 original price.  I literally freaked out in Target, and ran to the register.  Woot woot, so excited!!

I seen that today when I was in Target, I also bought the big castle, but I don't want any of the accessories or ponies in it.  I just want the castle to store and display my G4s in.  I'm hoping I can find just the castle sometime.

This!  I hope we get target exclusives too.  Some of them, like LPS, have come through Zellers eventually.  I even found the 3rd set of xmas ponies from G3 for $12, for the set of 3, at a grocery store several years after they were released.  I'm sure Canterlot would sell here, if it was released.

Oooh. Thank you very much! Which one did you visit, if you don't mind me asking?

Oh man, Ashes I think your Target is out there with the FS price. I'm in California too and I've seen $12.99 -$14.99
Title: Re: Mega sale at Target!
Post by: KtKat on February 06, 2012, 07:41:18 PM
Online, the Fashion Style Luna & Celestia is $20.   I hope it is so in the stores!   I've been wanting em ever since they were released, but $30 plus tax is a pretty penny to lay down on ponies, for me T-T

Post by: ZennaBug on February 06, 2012, 08:06:49 PM
I'll have to check it out!  I've been eyeballing FS Flutttershy but keep having to put her back because I have no monies  :(

FS ponies are only $12 at Walmart...but sadly Twi is exclusive to Target.

Now, the FS princess are at a good price. $19.99...since they normally run about thirty.

ETA#2: If anyone hitting this sale could do me a huge favour and pick up the small Canterlot Castle with Starbeam Twinkle, I'd be willing to pay the price of the full set for just Starbeam Twinkle de-boxed!! Help if you can pleeease :D

I picked up a Fashion Style Twilight Sparkle at the $12.99 price from a Chicago Target. The other items didn't appear to be on sale, but I didn't scan them to check. The $12.99 fashion style price was advertised on the shelf with a large yellow shelf-talker.
