Does anyone know if its too late to look for summer clearance? I haven't had a chance to go so I have no idea if/when the stores in Columbia, SC went 90%.

I think the brand is Rival and the regular price is $29.99.

I went to a different store yesterday. Its still 75% off but I found the crockpots - think they were $7.xx. I only bought one, since they aren't signed and in a different section I'll wait and see if they make it to 90% off.

One lady had 3 carts full plus all the jewelry boxes and Discovery cardboard castles and rockets piled up on the floor! She was taking everything! I managed to get a wooden jumbo train set, 4 boxed bathrobes and an electronic dart board. Went to another store because I'm looking for a microwave and was telling another customer about the lady, she described her and said she just cleaned out another CVS up the street. Not sure if she's reselling at the flea market but who needs all of that stuff! One lady asked if there were anymore train sets and she said no. She could have offered the lady one - she had about 10 of them!

3 of the stores we checked were 75% off yesterday (all signed at 50% off tho). Got a Barbie Dinner Date set (doll, table w/ 2 chairs) for $5, Soft pretzel maker $5, RCA 13.3 tv/dvd combo $37, boxed screwdriver/socket set $3.25, boxed corkscrew and bottle stopper set $3.25. I didn't buy the Ipod speaker tower $25 or the Discovery castle or playhouse $5. Minnie Mouse plush with a matching dress for the little girl $5, remote control cars $5. Other sites are reporting microwaves, cotton candy machines, 3 pc luggage sets, pie makers and camcorders are also 75% off. Most fragrance sets are 50% off.

One store had the holiday dresses marked as $5 but the ones that were reg 9.88 were ringing up 2.47! The were overriding the twin packs of Febreze so got those for $1.19 and the Glade candles for .50 and up depending on the jar size. Another store had tons of summer clothes starting at $1. I only got two boys t-shirts that had radios attached to the hangers for $3. I think the others had the little finger skateboards but I don't thnk my grandson is into skateboards.

There's a huge electonics clearance! Prism handheld tv - $19.99 portable tv - $19.99 Craig mp3 player - $9.99 GPS for dummies - $19.99 Vivitar digital camera - $9.99 wireless game system - $4.99 Those are just the things I found, there is also a dvd player, a camcorder, another type of mp3 player, Cars digital camera.

Just wanted to add that there is a $3 off coupon for the John Frieda hair dye and the clearance prices is $3.xx. I don't have details on the q - sorry. The clearance Nice and Easy was $2.xx and I got $2 ecb FAB - the root rescue is giving ecbs also and some stores have $2 off coupon pads on the shelves (mine didn't).

Don't forget to scan the items that were intended to be gifts: jewelry armoire, popcorn popper, kids pottery wheel, 2 in 1 blender/chopper, tabletop air hockey, tabletop ping pong, 3 pc luggage set....all 75% off For 50% off I saw the Ove glove, tv earphones (the ones that can make you hear the tv better), snuggies. Tons of hair dye and makeup on clearance too!

I went today, its 75% off. I wish I had known earlier, most shelves were bare. I found some bubbles, Sing a ma jigs $3.25, krazy straws and some cute little drink stirrers.....one store had tons of flip flops and clogs. if they are there at 90% off, I'll get some.

If you go, go early. There were some at my bb (columbia, sc) this morning. I checked the inventory tracker, got there to see a line of people. Customer service rep said they gave out tickets starting at 8 am and you had to have a ticket to buy one. So I was too late.....I have officially given up.

I found some of the Glad containers and the Up & Up cups - but the cashier was confused when it asked for a price, she went somewhere and came back to tell me they were $2.99. Oh well, my first time finding INF items and wasn't sure how to handle it.

Found for 75% off - Rival crockpot, programmable coffee pot, digital food scale, leather-like computer chair, hair dye (think it was Natural Instinct).

Guess I'll be heading back to Sears today.

I got to the store around 7:30 and it was packed. Lines were way too long and not a scarf in sight. Apparently they either weren't enforcing limits or were allowing mulitple transactions because the early birds had their arms filled with scarves. I was disappointed but guess I'll get up earlier next time.

Scanned my card and got $1 off Zhu Zhu so ended up with 4 for $9.xx

You can do separate transactions. I don't know which inserts these came from but Halls cough drops, Bic disposable razors and Soft Srcub total kitchen (or bathroom) cleaner ended up free after coupons.

No posts about the 90% off hidden deals? I found the charging station, photo snow globes, pasta cooker. book lights and the Karina hair accessories. Also bought the big makeup kit and the nail kit with the buffer even though it was only 75% off.

Man, I forgot how much work is involved in clearance shopping. Tons of ornaments and m&ms. I need to hit another store because the Dollar Spot was wiped out. I wanted some of those Jack Daniels coffee. Anyone tried it yet?

Still 30% off here. Walgreens has them 50% off and there is an in-ad coupon for $5 off.

Also check the men's baseball caps - I saw Corona, Bud, Amp, Ford, blinged out $ sign, and some style think its said Inked it looked like graffiti - they were $1 and $1.99 The men's boxers in the tins were also $1.99. I think it was Guitar Hero and Corona. I racked up on the men's polo shirts and button down shirts. Got tons of toddler clothes - a lot of Disney and Sesame Street.

I got a coupon from the scanner $1 off 2 CVS napkins, paper plates or paper towels - are the clearance summer napkins (think its called fun in the sun) a CVS brand? They are only 49 cents so they would be free.
