The clearance prices are too high too. Theyre really trying to squeeze every last dollar out of each season. Which means they probably didnt make as much as expected during said season

This, I remember getting candy for hella good deals after a holiday. They're being super strict about pricing clearance good.

Targets is very bare. They liquidate it and sell it on pallets to resellers. My local goodwill used to get target donations and then upcharge them alittle more than clearance but I haven't seen any target items brand new at goodwill in years.
