I am a total TARGET CLEARANCE junkie!!! I admit it!
Seasonal departments go on CLEARANCE the day after the holiday.
Food items (bagged candy, cake mixes etc) have a lower percentage off than other items.
For example IF wrapping paper & decorations etc are at 50% OFF...
THEN Food will be at 30% OFF.
Then they goto 70% & 50% and then lastly to 90% & 70% respectively.
Seasonal Departments WILL get to 90% OFF (except food),
unlike regular departments which bottom out at 70% OFF.
SO.... HOW do you know when the next price level drops???
I stalk the stores and post it up for you.
ALSO if YOU see that your store has dropped PLEASE shout out too!
Different store locations & regions can drop at different rates.
BE SURE TO SCAN ITEMS AT THE PRICE CHECKERS!!!
Signage may not reflect the current discount!
Tips for what kind of items to look for and where to find them in the store...
Check the seasonal section of your Target store.
Wrapping Paper, Tissue Paper, Bows
Christmas Tree Decorations & Stockings
Holiday Lighting & Extension Cords
Home Decor
Check all those giftable toys that are usually in the $3.00 bins on the back wall of seasonal
Holiday Paper Plates & Napkins
Holiday plastic baggies & wrap
Baking items including baking cups, pans, aprons
Holiday Clothing
Holiday Pet Toys, Treats & clothing
Holiday Towels, Tablecloths & Rugs
A couple years ago they had some of the Christmas Music CD's on CLEARANCE!
They usually pull some Dollar Spot items!
Holiday Beauty Sets
GREAT Time to score food mega-cheap!
In the past HICKORY FARMS ITEMS WERE INCLUDED!
Look for the holiday snack items like munchies, cookies etc.
It's a GREAT way to save money for packing the kids' lunches!
JUST BE SURE to check your expiration dates on the food items so you can buy accordingly.
You don't save money if you buy more than you'll consume before they expire!
HAVE FUN!!!! And share your scores and adventures in My Target Group!
