Meijer has Weber Charcoal $12.99/20lbs bag.   Now it is worth trying it out.

I gotta say, the Target markdown policy is pretty annoying. I have two stores in town. One had it at $5.98 and sold out while I was out of town. The other store has almost 30 bags, but has refused, so far, to reduce the price beyond $9.98. The manager explained that ""we don't price match." I'm sorry, but pricematching is honoring another company's advertised price, not maintaining consistent pricing within your own company. It was especially annoying because the employee at first store told me the other would have the same markdown, and they did not.
My wife and I have had several frustrating transactions with Target over the years, and while we generally enjoy shopping there, this is the kind of experience that inclines me to take my business elsewhere.
Of course, I'll go back to Target on Wednesday to see if they've marked it down again. lol

@cbpeck

Target stores really vary...and so do their managers.

I went down to a Target last night where brickseek said were marked at $5.98. I get there...plenty of bags...but still $9.98. Scanned at $9.98 in store. Asked the manager if they would adjust the price as seen o. Brickseek...they flat out refused. Said it was an external website and is in no way accurate to what their particular stores prices were.

I'll call next time before driving down there.

A bit off topic, but I gotta announce a personal victory- I finally snagged some Weber Cubes below retail! This particular search had reached near-grail status.  :)

Found at a Walmart for $2, 50% off. I know they get marked down to like $1.18, but I jumped and bought the last 12 boxes. (I also use them for the wood stove in the house.)

Come on Weber Light My Fire...    ::)

Another metro detroiter? LightningBoldtz and i were just talking about how you picture people vs. how they really look when you see them for the first time in person and how funny it is when picture in your head is so far from reality. (I pictured LightningBoldtz as a mid sixties guy with white hair... like an older version of Ron Burgundy)[emoji23] so hopefully this Michigan meet up will happen... it would be hilarious

I was able to use the link, via my phone. Several other people on the actual FB post said the same thing about the link being dead though too.

I checked two of my local stores that had it listed in stock that finally dropped to $5 a bag. Neither store had any to be found.

How many did BS show in stock and does it still show as in stock ?   Did you look all over the store for it ?  I found some on a random end cap well away from the seasonal/clearance area.

Targets around here (N.Central MD)
have completely switched over to
back to school.  I sometimes find
Q stuff in the housewares and the
"hardware" (lightbulbs, etc.)
You gotta dig a little.
As nice as Target is at times,
Walmart is much more logically
organized.

One store had 28, the other 23. I searched every isle in both stores for about an hour each. No one could locate them in the back either. Apparently I wasn't the only person who asked about them. Brickseek is still showing them in stock.
