I heard about this over a month ago from someone else's post. I went yesterday and there it was.

The 10 packs of Minute Maid Juice boxes ring up for .69. There were 3 of them mixed in with the 15 packs so I grabbed them up.

Hope someone else finds this, too.

You are so lucky. I still have not found any of them.

Also, look for the Market Pantry (target brand) juice boxes that come in an 8 pack that ring up at $.59. Look for packages that DO NOT have cardboard on the outside of them.

I found 4 of them yesterday, also. They were the Fruit Punch flavor, not my 1st choice for DD and DS but at .07 per box, I got all of them!!! And I felt so guilty when I was at the register, as though I marked them .69!!!

Great find!!!

[brownyz3]

i will have to keep my eye out

[wildpookey]

I was a skeptic that these existed and then one day I FOUND THEM! They only had the Apple Juice flavor.
I really is luck of the draw. I have only found them once. My Target hasn't had them in months but I check everytime I am there.

If you go at the beginning of the week you may have a better chance at scoring some of these juices boxes. I have found that usually they have them then. I go on monday or tuesdays and have almost always found at least 2 or 3. HTH

You guys are lucky - I have never been so fortunate to find these. Thanks for the info on the MP brand. I didn't realize that those also ringed up at 59 cents.

i found 2 of the minute maid fruit punch a couple of days ago. i was so excited i snatched them up fast

[Debwillia]

Remember that these are meant to be sold in the food court individually for .69. They are not suppose to be put on the grocery shelf. Seems like stealing to me.

[lpigram]

i really wouldn't call it stealing it's honestly not the customers fault if they are stocked in the wrong place

[xmaspickle]

I haven't even looked at juice boxes..my kids are teens and are beyond the 6-8 oz serving size..but maybe I'll run by that aisle..while using even more of the $5/3 coupons I just got

Seems like a lack of training on Targets part to me.

but if you know that they aren't supposed to be sold at that price ..why would you let yourself buy them?

so lets say, you live in a apt. complex..and you park in neighbors parking spot one day ... it's okay for that neighbor to take your car, because it's not their fault you parked there?

your kids friend leaves a toy in your childs bedroom 'oh no dear, you can keep it. it's not your fault that your friend left it there'.

to each his own, i guess.

I found the Market Pantry ones last night at my Target. I was so excited when I found them--I followed all of your great clues--better luck on Mon. or Tues., look for ones with no cardboard..and sure enough--I finally found them. My 7 year old DD just looked at me like"Mom's finally lost it". Target only had 4, so I snagged them up.

Congratulations on finding them! I love hunting for them!

Then maybe someone who is finding them mismarked should bring this training issue to Target's attention??????
Would you bring it to the store's attention if you wanted to buy something that you thought cost $2 but when you got to the check out line it rang up for much more? Or would you just let it go because it was a training issue or stocked in the wrong place?

[Debwillia]

You all know that these are not meant to be purchased by you in that form and you still congratulat each other for finding them? Did you tell your kids that part of the story?

How would a shopper know what it is "meant" to be sold and for how much? If I hadn't read this forum, I wouldn't have a clue that they ring up cheap. If you purchase the package and it rings up .69 and you pay for it, how in the world is that stealing??????? If you don't work at Target, then it's not your place to deal with pricing errors. There is someone there that is paid to handle those issues. If it bothers you then you should bring it to the managers attention.

AFC is here to help others in our coupon and deal hunting adventures. That is what these girls are doing. Nothing wrong with that.

There was a lady on here the last time this was debated who said her mother worked in the upper management of Target. She reported it and went through and tried changing it and it worked for a week and it was back to normal again. Target has been informed and doesn't seem to care enough to make it a training issue. They are too buy teaching their cashiers to be coupon police than to teach their stockers where to put stuff! Our targets sell their brand in the deli so I don't think the other packs are even ordered, I have never seen them. I wouldn't feel guilty about buying them though as this has been going on for a long time and they have had plenty of opportunity to put it to an end.

it's one thing buy something..willing to pay full price for something, and it ring up a cheaper amount...you pay, not knowing this.

another to go into a store purposely searching for an item that you know isn't priced right.

also, most stores have price tags under the items...so you know how much something is supposed to be sold for.

well each target store has about 200+ employees .. NOT just stockers put stuff on the shelves, nearly every employee does it at one time or another. also, target can't control every employees movements. they may address the issue, and the team member may just not care...may not feel like walking to the front to put them away, and throws them on the shelf.

like i said, target can't control ALL their employees steps in the stocking process ... but WE can control what we do.

we pride ourselves in being 'honest' couponers, and want respect...and not to be treated as if we are below others....but yet we do things that are not so honest.

[farmerdudette]

I don't see why this is such a big deal? Either way the juice boxes are going to be bought once they are placed on the shelves. Whether or not someone was going to pay $2.69 or $.69 for them.

If you are personally against it, I respect that. Nobody is forcing you to buy these juice boxes.

I don't go to Target specifically looking for these juice boxes. I spend my fair share of money in other parts of the store.

There are many people who haven't been able to hunt these down, so it's definitely not something that people are "scoring" everytime they walk into Target.

It's the thrill of the hunt.

[Shoo29]

I am surprised that there are so many cashiers that allow these to go through at those prices. I saw a pack of Market Pantry juice boxes recently without the carboard in it and I thought what the heck I'll buy it! My cashier looked at it right away and then when it rang up for $.59 she said "Well that isn't right, these are supposed to be sold separately." I thought to myself "well, duh!" and then played it off like I didn't know. I didn't really feel right about it anyway so no big deal. But I can't believe so many other people have such clueless cashiers!

[hockeymom14]

First of all, my Target never has any individual juice boxes in the cooler at the front of the store. I always look because I'd rather get my kids that than a soda or something from Starbucks. Also, I am at Target at least 5 times a week!! I spend lots of money there on things that are on sale, things I have a coupon for, and things that are REGULAR price. I shop there because I like the items, and the customer service. Wal-Mart is just across the street and I maybe go there 2 times a year--It is dirty, the people are rude, and the quality of the merchandise is not as nice as Targets. If Target doesn't like the fact that I found a few cheap juice boxes (their brand--not even the good stuff), then I can take the hundreds of dollars that I spend there each month, and go somewhere else.
