Shopdrop came through for me AGAIN!!
This time she sent me a msg to tell me that the store up north had the Long Blue Cardi in a Large. I took the trip up there and got the sweater!I had won a Medium on ebay (which hasn't arrived yet), for the original retail price, but the Large fits me really good. I'll probably let the Medium go when I finally receive it
Not only did they have the sweater, but I stopped at the dressing room and asked if they had any Missoni back there and she pulled a Black Runa out from the back!! I did a little bit of shopping and doubled back past the dressing room again and this time, she pulled a velor hoodie from the rack -- and it was my size!!
I also passed by the accessories dept to see what they had - on Sunday, they had a bin on top of the counter full of odds-n-ends -- but today it was gone. As I passed back the other way, I saw a basket behind the counter full of Missoni, including the Long Blue Striped Scarf and the Long Purple Scarf. As I was walking out of the dept. I noticed an end cap with a ton of Missoni, including a TON of the long brown scarf (which I already have). They must have gotten a shipment or found a box in the back because they must have had 10-15 of them!
I also picked up the girl's tunic hoodie for my granddaughter - it's a little big, but I love the colors in that one (I wish they made that one in the women's sizes!) and it looks really cute, plus it matches Gramma's Blue Hoodie!! (she wanted to wear it out of the store!)
I also found a few things today I didn't even know existed -- a black & white round bathroom rug, a serving platter and a black & white canister. I found two glass serving bowls and was going to get them to use as a trade, but they were so heavy, they would have cost a fortune to ship so I decided against them and put them back. I also found a journal and a few pair of sox.
Overall, I had a very successful day -- now if I could only find that long brown cardigan, my Missoni Madness will finally be over!!
Once again, thank you shop!! I can't tell you how grateful I am for your kindness!!
Ah that velour hoodie.... it is my white whale.....
Good for you!
when you say "restocking" - do you mean it was a return they put back on the floor or did they actually get new stock?
WOWZA iluvmybags! You made out like a bandit! What does that blue scarf look like? I don't believe I've seen it. I also found the long purple scarf too! I wanted the Infinity version of it...but I will settle for this.And the velour hoodie...I am so jelly!
Congrats!
If this is the blue scarf you're talking about, I took a cell phone pic of it when I got it last week. Doesn't really show the whole thing, but I was just taking a quick photo to send to my mom. Hope this helps! (P.S. sorry the pic is so huge, I tried resizing it AND rotating it in photobucket and it won't do anything, lol!)
Yup -- that's the one!
I saw it online the day of release and actually had it my cart when the site crashed -- by the time I got back online, it was sold out. I haven't seen too many of these, so I was really surprised when I saw it sitting there! I love the colors in this scarf -- I would want to buy this if I didn't have anything from the Target line. It's all the colors I'm normally drawn too!
I completely forgot -- the other thing I scored today was the men's black and white sweater. I never made it to the men's section before the website crashed and by the time I noticed this sweater, most of the smaller sizes were gone. I haven't seen any menswear anywhere, so I was excited to find this!! They had the "Grampa" sweater too, but only in a L and XL which were way too big!

OMG LOVE THAT! I want that and the Brown Infinity Scarf and I'm done (I think).
I'm trying soooo hard now to be good, but I also really want the brown infinity scarf now that I have the black/blue/grey-ish looking one, and it feels sooooo nice!
I got the mens b&w sweater 3 weeks ago or so and haven't worn it yet. My work is more business than casual, and I haven't even bothered to break it out on a weekend yet, although the weather here keeps going hot/cold, so that doesn't help either, lol. Post some styling photos when you wear it, it might decide of I keep or return mine, since I'm now thinking that the arms may look too big on me. I got an L, since when buttoned, it looked better on me than the M, but now I can't even decide if I like it at all anymore, arg! I need some inspiration!
Good for you!

I think the majority of items I saw at Target were new stock. Everything looked brand new, no creases and the sweaters with the buttons were all buttoned up. Additionally, they had so many duplicates in all the sizes. Only two had a clearance tag on them, but the price was only $.03 cheaper.
iluvmybags: You made it well for yourself! If you are in the windy city, can I ask what Targets you checked out?? You are having much better luck than I!!

Tigertrixie-- What Target did you look at? I am still dying to finish off my "collection"? Thanks!!!
The exact same thing happened to one of my orders. I was placing orders a few things at a time that I was sure I wanted--to be sure they didn't sell out while I was deciding on other things.
Too bad that strategy didn't work at all.
I can't make any sense of the order in which they are processing, but I do know that they are processing later orders first in some cases because I ordered the same thing weeks apart and they sent the much later order first.
WOW! Congrats on all of those great finds. I love that scarf--never even got to see it online due to the constant crashing. I also love the bath mat (hope you got it). Still looking for a blue cardi (to replace my defective one) and the brown one in a better size for me. These two cardis seem to be nonexsistent around here. But I'm still trying...and hoping I get lucky enough to actually receive one from my delayed order.
Oh, and your adorable GD is going to have a closet full of Mft, lucky girl!
i went to target today and found nothing. All that was left was a scarf, head scarf, hair clip, 1 picture frame, 2 art decor, 2 plates, 1 blouse, and 2 rompers. I guess everyone stopped returning stuff 
I havent even gotten everything that I wanted. I did get some great stuff though so i should be happy considering since i started buying missoni stuff 2 weeks after it was released.

Has anyone else lost access to Target.com? I keep getting the "Woof" page instead of the website. Strange! Just like 'opening day' for Missoni. LOL
Updated: I finally got into the site, but was locked out a few times this morning. Strange....

Went to Target during lunch. It was pretty depressing. Looks like they have mostly condensed everything to one teeny section of the main accessories rack. They had a couple of the long scarves, 1 gold infinity, black and white cardigan, and a couple of camis. In the lingerie they did have a pair of the sleep pants but they were way too big. I really want them in a medium!! I have the shorts and they are so soft. They also had a couple of vases and shoes but that was about it. It just makes me so mad how this got out of hand. None of the other collections have in the past and I didn't think many people here knew what Missoni was.
I had problems accessing the site this morning too. I thought they restocked all of the Missoni items and it caused another crash lol.
I also went to Target during my lunch break. I only had time to look at the main display and do a quick sweep of the store. They had the usual items but they had 3 pairs of the black and white pants, which I don't think I've seen before. I was able to get the black and white dress in a Large which should fit, and the brown sleeveless dress in a Large which means I can return the Medium that I have. If anyone wants to arrange a time/place for me to return it let me know!
If any AZ girls are looking for a poof the PV mall location has one marked down to $50!!! It was the purplish one with white zigzags (sorry I don't know the official name!!)
Oh they also had 3 floral comforters, a duvet, one sole picture frame, almost the entire kids collection and a few "ehhh" pieces of clothing in small!
now if only I can find a cardi I'm not picky, I'll take ANY of them!!!!
