75% in SoCal, too. I got some of the Littlest Pet Shop toys that were for Halloween. I have some Glad bags stashed at another store, hopefully they are still there when I get there tomorrow. :)

I don't think I would hold them that long, but they may well keep. You could just do what I do and buy after Valentines Day candy for Bday parties. Our boys are March & April babies, so it works out well.

can't find it. can you pm me?

I went back because I HAD to know if our stores marked Halloween down again after my morning visit. Unfortunately not. Bummer. One great deal to report, though I am sorry it is SO LATE. Mom is visiting and we went without kids to buy their Christmas gifts from her. I noticed that the Razor A scooters were on sale already for $24. There is a $5 off coupon in the Toy Catalog that, if you print off the website, you can use today, making it $19 down from $29.99! We were planning to get these anyway, so we picked up one for each of the boys. The $24 sale ends today, so if you can't get there today, you'll have to settle for the intended special in the Toy Catalog of $24.99.

Homeless shelters can always use them. We live in the city, so we sometimes do little bags of things for the homeless and always include a bar of soap and one of those washcloths. We also use them doing the gift boxes for Samaritan's Purse, for those familiar with the program, to send to kids in war torn countries. They also just make great rags. Just a few ideas.

anyone else?

Halloween still 50%, so I guess we are looking at Monday for the 75% markdown

They may not let you combine them. They generally treat the vouchers as coupons as that is how they process them. Given that they may not let you do it. On the other hand, it is worth a try. At least one store I used the vouchers at, from the previous recall, treated it like a check when I paid.

several were on sale for $7.99

Cool! If so, then it would make Monday 90% in all likelihood. That was my guess. They are desperate to get Christmas on the shelves.

Hide it in a friend's garage!

Garden Flower Bulbs 50% off

I found the HP Legos this morning!! I was searching for something that I had hidden last week and I found someone else had hidden them! Yeah!

Thanks! I'll take a look. My friend was just asking me about them today. I was so disappointed when they got marked up.

I'll have to scrounge around at some of my stores for the lightsabers. Maybe I'll get lucky. I can't complain too much, though, those blasters are really cool! I am saving them for Christmas. I am hoping for a good deal on the darts, too.

mine wouldn't either, that's why I asked.

It was the mixer and the blender, I believe. No food processors.

I think I might have been confused. There is a gal on GD but involved with the Disney Cars thread that is in Simi Valley. But good to know how much farther we spread out.

Lightsabers? What lightsabers were $4?

I didn't check the chips. Last year they didn't mark down some of that kind of stuff, so it didn't occur to me to check! Bummer! Glad to see so many fellow SoCal types are on here!

Looks like we SoCal types are spread out. We have someone from OC, you, me in the San Gabriel Valley, and another gal who is in Simi Valley! We cover the whole area except right on the coast.

I wonder if they were waiting for the 20% off coupon to expire....

I'll try to make sure to post it. Where are you in the area?

They go 50% first. You can see the markdown schedule above. Holiday schedule applies. But I am going to go out on a limb and guess that they'll shorten the number of days at the 50% & 75% off level. It will depend on how quickly it moves, though. They are VERY anxious to get Christmas stuff out. They were already moving a bunch of stuff around this afternoon to prep for Christmas, so I think they may go 75% as early as Saturday to take advantage of the weekend traffic. I'm hoping, anyway. I don't really want any of the decorations or costumes. I really just want the household stuff, and I'll probably take it at 50% since it is still a big savings.

Got a hot date tonight, Brad? You started November pretty early on the last day of October. Wish Target would start their Halloween Clearance that way! I really want to get a bunch of the Gladware and Glad bags and napkins!
