This post is almost reaching the point of becoming outdated, but I promised I would publish it this week and I didn’t share these tips last year, so I’m going to keep my word š . Even still, there are a good number of stores that still haveĀ clearance items out for sale, so this may help a someĀ of you!
Earlier this month, I went out and picked up a few clearance items of my own. Ā I’m shopping small this year. VERY SMALL. Ā I purchased 16 items for a total of Ā $14.12 (before tax) and a savings of $55.26. Ā I believe I have a photo of my receipt from 2014 floating around here somewhere. Ā I’ll do a longer strategy post next year and recap that haul. Ā (Stay tuned).
My local Wal-Mart had their items marked down toĀ 75 percent off on the day I visited so they may be at 80 or even 90 percent off to get that final push before clearing the holiday inventory. Here’s a copy of my receipt!
There are threeĀ simple rules I follow when it comes to holiday clearance shopping. No matter what the holiday is, the rules remain consistent.
