The Target 20 returns are trickling in...


Did you miss out on a coveted item in the recent "Target 20" designer collab? If so, check your local stores, as the returns are trickling in. Actually, in some stores I've noticed them flooding in, like the rack shown here that was "sold out" of most items one week then fully packed the next.

Another thing... have you noticed that the quality/fabrications have changed this time around for some of the items? I purposely fanned out the Jason Wu Cat Scarf here because this is definitely one item that I can tell the quality has gone downhill. I have the original scarf, which is made of a soft polyester that mimics the look/feel of silk. The new version of this scarf feels rough, scratchy and cheap. I also don't recall the Patchwork Missoni Sweater Dress having a "sheen" to it, and I have noticed in stores that this item (plus the matching cardigan) seem to snag really easily.

And as we approach the one month mark since the debut of this collab, I wonder how soon the leftovers will hit the clearance racks - ?

This was a reason I didn't buy anything this time around. the prices also changed on some things. The original cat tote was 40 dollars and the re-issued cat tote was 30 dollars. So it's cheaper but as you said quality is also cheaper.

Hey Mary! I actually thought the quality of the cat tote this time around was really good, but I didn't have anything to compare it to, as I was never able to get my hands on the original one. And the pricing on this collab seemed all over the map. The Lilly Pulitzer napkins seemed well made and cost just $10 for a set of 4. But a lot of the clothing seemed overpriced, given the quality.

It's gotta hit the clearance racks soon--there it too much of it in stores, AND 10 pages of items now on the Target website. What a debacle! Mary, The Recessionista
