Some Target stores are discounting the Pixel 6 Pro by a crazy 70% right now
The Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are old news and in Google’s rear view mirror. For now, thePixel 6ais getting its 15 minutes to shine before thePixel 7 phonesinevitably push them aside, too. It’s just the way things go. But it also might be prime time to go a-huntin' for some terrific Pixel deals… except in this case, you’d have to do it in the real world.
Threadson ther/GooglePixel subreddit(via9to5Google) have popped up with people penning posts telling the good people online about their stroke of luck coming across a 128GBPixel 6 Proin Stormy Black on final markdown, snagging it for 70% off. That brings it down from an MSRP of $900 to animpulse buy-levelof $270. So far, such clearance stickers have been found in Florida, Georgia, and Massachusetts.
But don’t go thinking you’ll just find them in any Target because the situation definitely depends on the particular store.One redditor claiming to be an employeesays the chain has four markdown tiers — 15%, 30%, 50%, and 70% off — and that the only reason they could think of for marking down stock is because the store wasn’t “supposed to have it in the first place.” They also say not to call their store to ask about their Pixel 6 Pro inventory.Another self-identified employeesays not every store has the same stock. Their store carried the Pixel 6, but not the 6 Pro.
People have been advising bargain seekers to check inventory scanner siteBrickSeekto see if they have stores with low inventory (usually two units or one unit) before heading out. Low stock is not a guarantee of a low price, it’s just an indicator. If you do take the effort to visit a Target, remember to be polite and kind to the sales associates.
Still, we’re not surprised to hear about retailers emptying shelves for the upcoming Pixel 7. There have been suggestions from some of the cheekier folk on the threads that those who can snag a bargain here can trade up nicely to the newer phone come release day. We don’t officially recommend that, obviously.
