Target Goes Thrifty

Sometimes a step forward is a step back.
After seeing that many used electronics were returned to their stores in "perfect working order", Target retailers decided to start selling used electronics through their website. (Reuters - Link)

The 'Pre-Owned' page on Target.com currently offers a variety of iPods as well as big ticket items like rear-projection TVs and plasma screens.

Looks like just the thing for this frugal holiday season!

Well, that was pretty economical of them. I think that they're on the right track though... At least, they didn't re-sell the products and claimed them to be brand new! Others might have pounced on the opportunity to sell a used item for its original price since it's all in "perfect working order" of course!

Plus, there's nothing wrong with having second hand items. It's what you do with it that counts. You can always make it your own
