Target is continuing its season of aggressive markdowns, from all clothing marked 40% off during a Black Friday promotion, a 20% off Target gift card promo and most recently, a BOGO on its online partnership with Faribault Woolen Mill (buy one at full-price, get one 50% off).

I noticed on Sunday that the entire collection of 10 pieces in 30 variations is discounted (originally priced from $13 to $80). In the past, Target would mark down its limited-edition pieces to its usual markdown cycle--25 or 30% off, then 50%, 70% etc. as it did with designers such as Parul Garung.

I interpreted this to mean that the line might not be selling well, but a Faribault spokesman said otherwise. "Several items have sold out," said Bildsten, "Sales have not been slow. Everything's been consistent with Target's original aggressive sales projections."

I was unable to confirm with Bildsten or Target which items may have sold out. After checking a handful of items, all seemed to be in stock. Bildsten said that Target intended the collection to be a limited edition with no subsequent orders for popular items.

I will update the post as I hear from Target about whether the discounts are permanent and if any items are sold out.
