Did any other Target stores not have the Special Edition Loomstate CD/Shirt out for 9/20/09. All New Orleans Target stores could not locate them and did not even know what I was talking about. They looked it up by item and it shows in the system what it is, but that none of the New Orleans stores have them. Any idea how I am suppose to get this cd/shirt deal? They didn't even have the CD's out on the shelves right in the morning either. They had to go grab them from the back. UGH! I am one frustrated P.J. fan for not being able to get my limited edition shirt too :(

    well their was no shirt/cd deal. Both items were seperate. The shirt was available at limited target stores, you can check this list to see if a store near you might have it:

    Or you can order one from targets website:

    Thanks. Well the Manager at the Target near me told me that I had to show them a receipt for buying the CD to get a shirt (I told him that did not sound right at all). No one at the store could even tell me that any of the Target stores were even carrying it. I think they were just about as confused as I was. Thanks for the help!

    I was able to pick up the shirt at my local Target although they did not have the CD. They only had a couple of shirts. The employees had no clue what was going on.

    It seemed like that at all of the Targets that I visited here. All of them were clueless and then gave me wrong information. I understand that the Entertainment Dept. is run by fresh out of high school kids who have no clue what good music is, but still. Unpack CD's and stock them on the shelves so that people who do know what good music sounds like, can buy them :-) Next time, I'll just pre-order and hope that my mailman doesn't crush it like he has numerous other things.

    I live in the UK but arrived in LA Sunday afternoon with work. I called (as a $40 round trip to the store) the Bellflower Target store, which was on the list as stocking the t-shirts, as soon as I got to the hotel in Long Beach. The guy there was very helpful and told me they'd had four that morning and they'd been sold. I called the following two mornings and each time the staff knew what I was referring to and said they'd been trying to follow it up and Tuesday morning the guy informed me they weren't going to be stocking them at all!!! Oh well :?

    Looks like the Target.com link is no longer working. All gone?

    One left at the Langhorne, PA Target in size Medium. Just called to ask. When I was at the store on Monday to buy the CD and vinyl, I couldn't find the shirt or anyone to ask. Sucks, because they probably had 'em in more sizes at that point.
    Also, Bensalem is sold out.

    Oh, and Ebay sucks. http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=target+pearl+jam+t+shirt&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=

    Seriously, how much did this thing cost in the store? $19.99?

    There's a list going of locations that failed to have the appropriate merchandise out on the correct date. Feel free to add your info!

    I finally stopped by my Target at lunch today which is right down the street. They had the display and only 1 vinyl left but I did not buy it since it was kinda messed up on the edge. There were a LOT of shirts left though and I did not have to buy a CD first. I was surprised the vinyl was almost gone but lots of shirts left....

    The Target closest to me (Auburn, California--this is in northern california folks) is awesome...in regards to PJ supplies and display. They have well over a hundred cd's in stock, probably 15 vinyl, and a ton of shirts in m/l/xl. They had a couple of the rockband copies as well. It was all front and center with a huge display. I was absolutely impressed.

    I ordered my shirt from Target.com, got an email stating I would not receive my order until Nov. 17!! UGH!!! I was hoping to sport my Backspacer shirt for my 30th b-day! :( This is really bumming me out. They only have Medium and Large size too, I'm a small. Why are they having so much trouble with it? I think it would have been handled MUCH better if it was done VIA the pearljam.com website itself. This is really starting to suck.

    I couldn't even find the shirt on their website! How'd you find it?
