If the Target Cars singles section is completely cleared out, is that a sign of a restock coming? Has anyone noticed if there are "liklier" day of the week for Target to do a restock?
Mine seems to restock the furthest time from when i am there and empty's out sometime in between!! LOL
Seriously though…Target has trucks everyday this time of year and there is no better time than other atleast that I have found!

If you casually ask a Target employee when they get deliveries, they will typically tell you. My closest stores restock on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Some of the ones South of me restock Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Happy hunting!

The Target I checked last night had all the old Finns and 2 Grem w/ weapon. That was it. These new cardbacks are selling pretty good!

So close yet so far.
Saw Rip at Target…except somebody else was holding it to purchase.
She refused my feeble attempt at buying it off of her.
All was not lost, I did see the remnants of the 2012 Case N and picked up a Nick Cartone, Alex Vandel and Erik Lanely.

That's when you point to left and yell, "OMG Bradd Pitt!" and grab the Rip and run! 😉

I just got hooked on collecting Cars. Initially, I was just buying some for my 2 year old for Christmas and then stumbled upon a lady at a yard sale, selling some of the deluxe oversized and realized how cool they were, and well now I'm addicted. YIKES! I've been going to Target and TRU every few days looking for new ones and couldn't understand if I didn't purchase one, why they'd be out the next day. And then I discovered this site and this thread, now I don't feel so crazy.
Any tips for someone in Houston?

LOL, you are in good company here Zany 🙂 Welcome! Collecting is so fun, and crazy addicting! This site is great for learning and for trading! I have learned a ton, and made some great friends. Enjoy!

So I forgot to mention that I actually brought the Case N box home with me to pack away some extras. While I was looking at the box I noticed a label on it that I found interesting. Notice that it says "purge 12/15/12", not sure if that means anything but thought someone here might know.
Purge date means the date the cases are to be taken out of the stockroom and placed on the pegs for sale.

So maybe they did not want them on the rack for the sale which ended on the 15th? Maybe I need to get to target today? Maybe I will find nothing..lol 🙁

I found 2 full Case N's yesterday the last day of the sale^ which corresponded with the purge date of 12/15/12 as in Lane Changes picture.
Some Targets evidently have cases with a later purge date. Another collector found case N's that showed a purge date of the 12/18/12 that they got from a Target who brought them out of the stockroom.
Why the different purge dates, I have no idea. But that's what the date means. "Purge from the stockroom". I am sure not all Targets do it right on time though.
here is the definition used in computer science.
purge date [′pərj ‚dāt]
(computer science)
The date after which data are released and the storage area
can be used for storing other data.

I wish I could find a Case N… my Target just skipped straight to Case B (well, part of Case B – all I saw was a Cactus McQueen )

Wow great finds! I have yet to find any of those! If you are interested in getting into trading on here, snag extras of cool stuff you find, and try to get ones with good card condition. Then put them up for trade. I have been able to get 100's (I am not exaggerating here lol) of cool cars by doing this!
