Target Information

Ugg.. I only have a target in my area (within 20 miles). It will be my only stop at 4:30. If it doesnt work out I'll stock up with iToilet Paper and just order online.

i called my two targets and both only have the 64 GB wifi black versions. so disappointing, they were my plan 1.

called the 2 walmarts local, the first didn't know when they'd get a shipment of them. the 2nd had no idea what they had, only the manager could check but he wouldn't say for some reason? odd. i asked him "well how am i supposed to know to choose your store for the one i want?" he said, well that's a risk you'd have to take. so lame.

so my local best buy has the model i want, 32GB wifi black, and said no one is there waiting now and she hadn't heard from many people calling about it. she suggested to get there around 4 to get a ticket and then buy it at 5. so i think i'm gonna head over to that best buy around 2:30 or so and wait around til 4, get a ticket then buy it at 5.

my plans got totally flipped!

My Target is only getting 32gb WiFi&3g ATT white. No clue how many... I am waiting in the Starbucks inside and will be checking in at the electronics section every hour until the line starts.

Hi all, posting from iPhone so short and sweet. I just reserved my iPad at target. Some are allowing, some aren't. You have to get your reserve ticket in person. They only had 5 left when I called and 2 left when I got there. Good luck!
 
I called my local Target (Houston, Main Street location) and the lady at electronics sounded really mean. Maybe she has been getting too many calls from potential iPad 2 buyers or something. She just kept talking overtop of me and saying "THEY WONT BE ON SALE UNTIL 5 PM" and she would not say how many were in stock or which models. :confused:

Can you blame her? Apple has made it abundantly clear that they CANNOT be sold until 5.

I wasn't calling her to ask if she would sell me one before 5, I was calling to ask how many were in stock so I would know if it was worth driving there after work or if they were most likely to be sold out. She could have at least been nice about it.
 
blame the 10 guys before you that were all pissy about it. A lot of those store clerks don't get paid enough for what they're sometimes expected to handle.
 
Yea it seems as if no targets are currently carrying the 3g models. But if your like me & not care about 3G you can run down to your target store an grab a ticket which guarantees you your wifi model until 6:00pm but call first just to make sure your target of choice is doing the ticket system
 
called my target, said she only had 5 of the 16GB wifi model. i asked if she thought it would be worth going down there in an attempt to get one (im at work) she said they have a meeting in 30 mins or so about the sale, shes not sure whats changing, but if i wanted to call her back in 30 mins or so she will have a better idea.

we have a few best buys and an apple store... but im honestly looking for the least amount of people/traffic - if target doesnt have them ill probably just wait a bit. she mentioned they will have another shipment for sunday.
 
Livermore, CA Target only had white 16GB wifi only and they are taking reservations

Dublin, CA Target only had 64GB Black wifi only and they are taking reservations.

I reserved mine at the Dublin store for 5pm pick-up. Like someone said above, they will hold it for you until 6pm.
 
Called our target and said not giving out any vouchers and that over 200 people have called about ipad2 and that they only have 5 ipad2s!

Gonna shoot for Bestbuy first, but do know the walmart has one white 64GB, that I will shoot for if BB doesn't have them, but believe they will.
 
San Diego on Sports Arena Blvd only has 4 black 32GB black ones. 1st come 1st served at 5pm.

You do know that Target employee could lose his job buying an iPad for you. His discount is only for his own personal purchases.

so you cant use the discount to buy gifts for people? tons of people should get canned then.
 
What a bunch of BS...I called a local Target here in Phoenix and the manager says they are giving out tickets to people in line, but there was no one in line yet. I asked if I go get a ticket, can I leave and come back with it later...and he said yes. So I drive the 20 minutes out there...only to get there and then be told if you get a ticket, you have to stay in line. Then what the hell is the point of the ticket?
 
My Targets are all over the board - some giving out tickets - some not. Got a ticket for a Black 64 - -that store only got 10 total and all appear to be black 64's - LOL. Went to another because I don't really want a 64 Black and that store only got 5 units TOTAL - all 16GB White so I picked up a ticket and guess I will fetch it this PM.

I would suggest anyone wanting a specific mode/color etc... to hit BB or Apple.

Just called another Target and they said that there is no one in line but lots of people have asked and that they are only getting five and all are 64GB Black models. He said this is true for ALL Targets.

just got a ticket for a 16g black wifi at my target. they have 10 16gb and 5 64gb
 
Another Target store just confirmed that they only have 5 on hand but of the 32GB Black model. They said they may be getting another 5 models in but didn't know if it's for sure or what kind.
 
I picked up a black 64gb ticket from the Brentwood, CA store. Exactly what I wanted and no waiting in line!
