I went in this morning to do a quick scan of the store for any new returns and I snagged 2 brown zig zag embroidered pillows and a matching candle. So excited! Keep checking your stores for those returns!
Hi, when were you at tthe store? just wondering if those blue hand towels still there. thanks!
I'm going to try goodwill again today, and maybe 1-2 Targets. I'm getting tired of driving to farther Targets so I'm just going to keep stalking my 3 closest.
It's ok! Depending on the weather, after work I might go to a Target I haven't been to yet so I might get lucky lol.
You did get very lucky to find that set. I don't think many were offered in the twin size. They had the most adorable pillows that I think went with your set. I almost ordered them but I didn't know what they went with...and I probably wouldn't have received them anyway.
I did order one bed set and one pillow. It was cancelled about five days after I placed the order (around 4:30 am on Sept 13). I called customer service and they could find NO reason why the order was cancelled, it just was. They offered me a gift card, but I never received it.
The bedding set I ordered was for a relative and I looked everywhere for the set for weeks. I finally found a king size one (without the shams) as a return. I had ordered the queen, but I took that one anyway. It goes really well with all the coordinating pieces. But I really wish I had oredered a few more of the bedding sets and accessories. It was just too difficult to even see what they had, yet alone order on launch day. I've received probably less then 25% of what I did order. Thankfully, I've managed to find some things in the stores. I have yet to see the pillow from my cancelled bedding order, though.
I got a series of cancellation emails this morning. 3 out of the 10 items I ordered online are cancelled. The remaining 2 items are still pending, and I went ahead and cancelled those as well for a piece of mind...to close the entire order (since I don't want to wait forever...) I did receive 5 items from this order, and I guess I can consider myself lucky?Anyways... to compensate, Target is sending a $25 gift card to me within 10 days.
I got a series of cancellations too. I won't tell you exactly how many.:shame: I tried to cancel some of my remaining items (that I have since found in the store) but I can't do it, because I keep getting error messages. Their computers are still not working.
I had a promise of a gift card about three weeks ago for all the times I had to call CS regarding my messed up orders. But I never received it. So, I'm not holding my breath for this one.
For everyone that got their orders cancelled:

Target.com president leaves; questions about departure loom
By Rachel King | October 13, 2011, 3:04pm PDT
Summary: The president of Targets online division has departed, and the retail giant hasnt specified why.
There is a new job opening at Target: Target.com president.
Here is Targets statement in full:
Target today announced that Steve Eastman, President of Target.com, has left the company to pursue other opportunities.
Yep, thats it at least for now. Although the retail giant hasnt specified why Eastman is up and leaving all of a sudden, there are a few plausible causes.
For one, Target parted ways with Amazon.com to focus more strongly on its own website sales. (Amazon.com powered Target.com, and Target products showed up in Amazon searches).
Although that shift has been in the works for awhile, its possible that has done more to hurt Target than strengthen its online retail channel. Target.com reportedly crashed on day one without Amazon.
Target.com also suffered a very public meltdown last month when its latest discount designer line with limited edition clothing and home products from Missoni caused the site to crash in September.
Even worse, Target accepted more orders than it could handle...

I had some order cancellations some through this morning as well (a camisole and some organizational trays) and they did send an email that they would send a $25 gift card. We will see if one comes.
Here is another inventory tracker success story. I have been wanting the blue zig zag button down colore cardigan since I have seen such cute pics of it in the modeling thread. I've been checking the inventory tracker every few days or so and today it showed up in a store near by. I called and the lady on the phone said it was showing one in inventory but she had no way of checking (I guess she couldn't go on the floor) so I drove out there and there it was! I was kind of shocked since I didn't want to have too high expectations of finding it. It is so cute! Once I came home I checked the inventory tracker again and it already shows as not available in that store. Now if I could just find the longer open brown zig zag cardigan I would be complete!

Found a passione clutch at lunch today! Someone must have done a big return because there was quite a bit that I didn't see yesterday. I have been looking for the Missoni arm warmers but I found some cute Mossimo ones today so I gave up and just got those!
I'm not sure if anyone else noticed this, but earlier this week some items showed up on the Target site. I had really wanted the Missoni Dinner Plate (Familia) set for eight on the launch date, but missed out. On Monday, I decided to see if I could hunt any plates down in my area, when I typed the dinner plates the set of eight showed up. I bought two sets and got free shipping with them, they will be arriving on Tuesday. 
Has anyone gotten clothing cancellations? I still have an order that I placed early 9/13 that has not shipped. I was reading Targetstyle & it looks like home items are being cancelled. I am just wondering because the long blue cardigan is on that order & still has not shipped. I have been trying to get in all day to check my items & finally just managed to, but it just shows as not shipped yet. I can not beleive that I am still clinging on to this order after more than a month!
I read somewhere that if you credit card got charged (on Target's twitter feed) than its safe to assume that your order is being filled. Has your card been charged? (I could be wrong though.)
