misshayley Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 Does WM's Christmas clearance ever go to 90% off or do they just go to 75% off.
elena_398 Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 Mine has, but there was barely anything left. Few odd ball items, but around me most good stuff goes at 50% off. 75% is ok, but really picked over
-msmama- Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 around here, Wally cut back on Christmas decor, hardly anything now, except those damn blowups. last year they had half the garden center for after clearence. I scored good!

mom_of2boyz Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 Same here. If you don't grab it at 50% off, you miss out.Yeah, I always used to say that if people would wait a little and not grab everything at 50%,you know that it going to drop to 75%. They have to get the things out of the store and sometimes they go to 90% but as elena_398 said but the time it is 75-90 it is really picked out. The only thing we really had left last year at 90% were the little gift bags. I thing they were 5 cents or something like that. I grabbed some of those, but that was about it.
Guest JeepMom Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 Sometimes ours just goes to "everything $1-$2-$3" kind of things
elena_398 Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 I went today and stocked up on the birthday parties my daughter will be going to. She averages 4-5 so I stocked up on the little girls bath sets, perfume sets, and kids makeup and brush sets. All gifts are done for next year. LOL. I also scored on the cologne and perfume sets today. Got my son and husband done and some Rimmel perfume for me. I had a $50 GC to Walmart so used that up quickly. I wait for the christmas cards till 75% off. They are always left. Im going to check if its 75% off at the end of the week. I showed up this morning at 5:45am and at least 40+ people at each door. It was like free stuff was in there. lol
bargaingal2 Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 Ours doesnt. Heck they still had halloween stuff the 2nd week of December LOL!!!
theboyzmom Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 ours had holiday stuff at 50%, but I would bet most of it will be gone before Saturday I loaded up on small gift sets too!
megnsamsgrace Posted December 26, 2006 Posted December 26, 2006 I bought those kids bath sets too! I have 4 kids in elementary school so at least 14-15 parties through the year... so I stock up for gifts!
blssed2bme Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 I have to stop by WM to see what kind of deals can be had. I need more Christmas ornaments for next year.
leefamily23 Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 I was at Walmart last night- our's was suprisingly empty. I know last year we still got a bunch of stuff around January 1st. Doesn't look like that is going to happen this year.
hannahs_momma Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 At my Walmart the Holiday Baking supplies where about 80% off the rest of the items like gift packs etc where only 50% I got frosting, evaporated milk, some muffin mixes and a few other items from the food aisle
jcarr492 Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 does anyone know when they will start marking down to 75% off? I was out our local little walmart today and they have a LOT of the light up nativity figure sets at 50% off right now for 22.xx. Since they have so many, I'm opting to wait till 75% off..or everyone is in search of the wise men that go to it..all they have are mary, joseph, and baby jesus. they also have these tall black bears with the sled that says welcome on them that I'm really wanting, but they have a lot of those too..so want to see if I can get one at 75% off.

Our store only had three boxes and one was open, so I wasn't taking any chances! No wise men, camels or anything else though.
elena_398 Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 I always wait for the christmas cards. They had literally 100s of them. People were buying, but I always wait till 75% off. Im going to head out this Friday or Saturday to check

Im going to head out this Friday or Saturday to checkI don't know if it was all the Walmarts, but ours marked the Christmas cards down to $1 a box the week before Christmas. They all sold the same day.
bamaprincess Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 Still only 50% off here. When is it going to hit 75%? Is it possible that it will happen in the middle of the day? Should I check later today? They still have lots of stuff at one of our Walmart's here, so I figure I can wait until it's 75% off. But waiting is driving me crazy!!!!
littlesdcen Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 talked to walmart employee and she said sunday night at 12:00 all holiday stuff goes 75%.
elena_398 Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 crap, I dont feel like going at midnight. LOL. (Isn't that New Years Eve ?) Not in front of a calender right now but didn't think Walmart would be open then. I'll go Monday
risngsun24 Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 A bit off-topic but thanks to all who mentioned buying the gifts sets on clearance for birthday gifts. I'm always stuck for ideas on what to get my son's friends and usually get gift cards. Heading to WM today so will see about getting some of those gift sets while they're marked down.
paigenms Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 my dad works at wal-mart and he says it is going 75% off tonight at 12:01 am i will be there and i will confirm as soon as possible. i am going to get gift set for bdays . hope this is correct b/c i am going to be very upset if i am at wal-mart and it isn't 75% .
elena_398 Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 Well I went to my Walmart today. Haven't been there since 12/26. WOW is it picked over. Never has the selection dwindled this quick. Thank god I bought the day after when they first opened on 12/26. Practically nothing left. I did pick up a heated massager for 50% off.
blssed2bme Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 my dad works at wal-mart and he says it is going 75% off tonight at 12:01 am i will be there and i will confirm as soon as possible. i am going to get gift set for bdays . hope this is correct b/c i am going to be very upset if i am at wal-mart and it isn't 75% .I went to Wal-Mart tonight and at 12:15AM, the Christmas items were still ringing up 50% off. So I walked around the store for a while and went back to scan the items and at 12:30AM everything rang up 75% off. So I racked up on bath sets, colognes, bulbs, etc. I got $200+ worht for the items for $50. Thanks so much for the tip. I really appreciated it!!! :)
Sunshyne Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 75% off at the East York, PA store. Signs still say 50%, but everything rang up 75% off.
misshayley Posted December 30, 2006 Author Posted December 30, 2006 Called my local WM and the one in the next town over and they said that they are still at 50% off. I wanted to go shopping today
blssed2bme Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 I'd advise you to go to Wal-Mart to check the prices yourself. I wanted to get a couple more things so I called a WM that is closer to me and asked about the clearance and she said everything is 50% off. But I decided to go there anyway and the items scanned at 75% off. Maybe the employees don't know that the items really are reduced. So either call the store and have them to scan the price of an item or going there yourself is good.
paigenms Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 i just got back from my walmart and it is 75% off racked up on gift sets and cologne and ornaments for our swap next year
