Guest DigDoug Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I am usually involved in some family activity on that day, so I rarely go or want to go shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I don't usually go out the day after christmas. I do however head out the weekend after as Walmart has great clearance items. I got a bunch of makeup sets for less than $1, my christmas cards for this year for .33 a box. New garland for .45 and icicles for .05 cents. Cant' beat those prices!

RossMAN Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I usually visit Target and Walmart the day after Christmas for their clearance sales. 40-90% off is the norm, there are some awesome bargains out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpzazz Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 The absolute best time to buy Christmas decorations. That way you have "new" stuff for next year. I bought the 8 foot inflatable snowman for a third of its original price 2 years ago. A great deal. Its my 2nd favorite day to shop, behind BF of course.

simonalex Posted October 17, 2005 Author Share Posted October 17, 2005 I usually do not shop on 26th DEc. But last time for soem reason I just wanted to get out of house on 26th Dec. I was amazed to see the crowd and not only that most of the good stuff was gone!!! Actually we went to Sears which gets toys on s seasonal basis. All toys were gone!!! It was absoluately amazing and we had gone to mall around 11.00 am. so that was not even late, but almost all aisles were empty. So this yr I am deciding to hit mall on 26th DEc also and early!!!

santaclaus Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I do. That is when we get our pricier Christmas decorations. One year, I actually bought a few gifts one year. We were not able to go to my Grandparents house till a few days after Christmas so I waited and got their gifts on the day after Christmas.

starshine Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I do and I keep haunting the stores for a few weeks after Christmas for the major markdown's. Last year I hit CVS when they marked everything 90% off and I made a haul in wrapping paper. I have enough paper for at least two years. I also got tags, boxes and bags dirt cheap. Pays to keep going back every few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakes_mommy Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Believe it or not but I think the best time to shop after christmas is New Years Day, hangover or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairydustcrissy Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I dont go on Dec 26, but shortly after. i dont want anything at Target till its at least 75% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outnumbered Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I usually try to get Christmas decorations for the next year during the week after Christmas. I don't have much to decorate the house with--pretty much just the tree and ornaments for it--so I am trying to slowly add things as I can't afford to buy any decorations for the house before Christmas...LOL I can barely afford to buy presents.

jadedmomof2 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Usually within the week after the 26th. My favorite is to hit Sam's Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonalex Posted October 17, 2005 Author Share Posted October 17, 2005 Wow!! Have never thought about Sam's club. WHat do you find there and how much off?? Simonalex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadedmomof2 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I go there looking for toys. Year before last I got a $65-75 Chicco kitchen for $15. I forgot to go last year(and kicked myself for it) Oh, and Playmobil sets are generally 75-90% off. I'm going to pick up a few of those this year, my youngest son has a summer birthday, so I like picking up a few things for him during the after Christmas sales.

Gporter34 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I went to CVS last year on Dec. 26th and was so suprised. I got two 12ft. inflatables(reg. 79.99) for 90% off. I try to hold out on WalMart until they mark down low but keep a watch on it so that I can get what I need if they get low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKS88 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I usually go out on Dec 26. I usually have the best time finding clearance and some of the items I missed out on earlier from people's returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohio_gal1959 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I usually go out the Day After, but just to browse and see what I can find. I usually wait until the end of Feb...to get the Big Clearence Deals. My family calls me the Clearance Queen, because I seek and find the Awesome Deals.

Booterbunz Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I will normally go out the day after to Walmart and sometimes Target. I like finding little ornaments and whatnot. Then when Target's wrapping paper hits 90% off, I go stock up for the year! I also get the gift bags from Target at 90% too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
