Goodwill hunting...

Looking for Nate Berkus for Target home decor that's sold out of your local store? Try hunting for it at your local Goodwill. This rattan lamp (shown here - sold minus the lamp shade) seems sold out of most Target stores, although it's still available online for $27.48 (which is 50% off of the regular price of $54.99). But I saw several at my local Goodwill store this weekend for just $13.99.  I also saw plenty of these black & gold throw pillows (still full-priced at $19.99 online) for just $4 each! I also spied other Nate Berkus items at deep discounts. The caveat is that not all Goodwill stores seem to get Target merchandise - and some stores get more inventory than others - so you really have to shop around.

Please tell me why target insists of stacking paper towels by the front entrance
It looks ridiculous in the women's section
And makes the whole store look tacky!

Kayerickson: I think that Target sometimes stocks items they really want to "push" near the entrance (by women's section as you noted). Right now it might be paper towels, and right after Christmas it was plastic storage bins. I guess the rationale is that maybe while you're shopping for clothes, you'll pick up these "extra" items as well.

My local Goodwill never has Target merch. They must ship all the clearance to a few areas of the country.

Critifur, I think you're right: I know of only 1 store in my area that gets Target stuff. The other stores don't seem to get Target donations.
