Thread: Question about Walgreens.... sales?

Tweet

Hey guys. I'll cut to the question:

Does Walgreens usually put some Halloween items on sale (any kind of discount) before October 31st? Or do they only do it after the 31st?


Thanks so much!

Yeah they have sales! I just posted about this on my blog yesterday. Starting Sunday September 18th, select decor will be Buy One Get One 50% off. Other decor (smaller items like window clings) will be Buy One Get One FREE!
Harvest decor, like scarecrows and such will be 25% off.
Make your own graveyard items (tombstones, etc) will be on sale as well but not sure about the prices.

I can't wait for that sale!!

Thanks Sweet! I'll have to make a mental note about the 18th.

Thanks for the info! I'll be checking out your blog too!

i think they do it after! but if you think about All the Halloween stuff i saw at Walgreen's was already really cheap!!! the bubble fog machine they have it for 50 bucks everywhere else is like 70ish...I got a full size skeleton for 30 bucks! cant beat that I've seen them going for like at least 100 bucks.. Walgreen's really stepped it up this year for sure.But just like everyone else when halloween is over everything needs too go! Tombstones were 3 for 10 bucks i think,mini strobe light were 5 or 6 bucks bigger ones were 10,orange/black light color Christmas style light were like 2:50. They even sale Hay for 6 bucks!

Do you think the skeletons will be BOGO 50% off? I already got one, but I need another!

maybe but at the one by my house they have like 20 or so i dont think they will even last till the 31 i think they will all sale at the price there at!

I never seemed to like Walgreens prices. BUT i've never thought of going there for Halloweenie Decor. Is it worth it to check out?? Do I need an over stuffed wallet?

I thought the Walgreens prices were pretty fair last year. They have the same tombstones this year as last year so I already have all the designs. The candelabra at $8 seems like a decent price and I'll probably buy one even if it doesn't go on sale. The resin skulls are $6 compared to $9 at "discount" store Big Lots and they usually run out early (last year they even ran out of the tombstones pretty early... had to stop at 5 different Walgreens before we found them). I almost always wait until clearance for a lot of things but Walgreens will probably get some sales from me this year.

Right now all that the ones in my area have out are those INSANELY HUGE skulls and pumpkins

Heads up though: in one of them I found Water Beads (those little dried marbles that swell up into jelly beads) on clearance for $1.57 in many colors. Picked up red, black, and purple. Was going to buy them out, but then I found a huge box of them on another shelf so I'll wait and see if they go lower. Normally $2 in Walmart so not a huge savings, but it'll get me another rat and a half from the dollar store

In the past few years, they've actually had some really cool and unique items.

I got a heavy, metallic skull and an awesomely creepy clown jack-in-the-box there in years past. They aren't much more expensive than most retail stores. I look forward to checking them out again this year as it seems they've been stepping up their efforts annually...
