gitmogecko Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Usually go to WalMart the day after Christmas and buy what I absolutely have to have and wait for the rest to go down to almost nothing, then I buy it up!!! LOL Of course, always buy the paper and bows and things like that for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I may check out Walmart. Don't they start at 25-30% day after christmas? I hit the 50-75% and clean up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holly2hottie Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 How long after Christmas until stores do the 75%-90%? I always seem to miss it or get there when everything's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 How long after Christmas until stores do the 75%-90%? I always seem to miss it or get there when everything's gone.http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=14835 Of course it varies from store to store, some are picked clean the day after Christmas so it never hits 75-90% off.

This way I can get them soemthing they didn't get for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copados1993 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I have found that Target is a wonderful place to go the day after for great deals on all the holiday stuff. I buy things and then put them away for the following year!!!! Go early and expect long lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkadoo1 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 It's definetly one of the best days to shop. You can get xmas stuff at dept stores on sale and of course use the coupons. I found great deals on clothes also. I have to agree that feb. is a good time for clothes. Last year the kmart by us closed. So I gotgreat deals before BF and after, My daughters bday is in Jan. so she made out great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonalex Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 I wonder how you find stuff like 75-90% off?? I went to walmart and target yesterday (oct 30th) in the night around 8.00 PM. and they were OUT of most of their halloween stuff- no good costumes or accessories were left!! when I went to Walmart last yr after christmas , some items were 50% off. But they were all high priced items. All low priced items were gone!!! What should we do? Thanks Simonalex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcster Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Usually within the week after the 26th. My favorite is to hit Sam's Club.I'll second that. All those chocolate and/or fancy gift baskets are super-cheap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holly2hottie Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I usually go out if my husband is home to watch the kids. Can't pass up all the good deals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aolson Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Because it is a Monday this year, I don't think I will be able to go. I hope I will, my Christmas decorations supply is dwindling because stuff is wearing out or breaking, so I need to get prepared for next year.

mama2ella Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 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. I agree..I never want to spend $ on decorations b/c I have so many gifts to buy..I usually end up using some of the $ I get for Christmas to buy a few decorations for next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likehome Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I ALWAYS shop the day after Christmas. I am at the opening of Target, then go to the Hallmark store and then everywhere else. I have bought some beautiful christmas decorations for 50-75% off by purchasing on these days. I also try to stock up on non-holiday type gifts (like candles that aren't to holidayish, prepackaged lotion or cologne, etc.). Don't forget the department stores also have some of these types of items. I also try to hit Target, Walgreens and CVS for the 75% off sales. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
