Thread: Halloween Clearance

Tweet

It's that unfortunate time of year where many stores are starting to mark down and clearance this year's merch. Please post sale/clearance information here.


So far....


Michael's ... 50% off


Joanne Fabrics....50% off


Rite Aid....50% off


Shopko....50% off


Kmart online ....30% off


Grandin Road...20% off

Not unfortunate when you're looking for good deals, though!

Lowes has a few items at 25 % off on clearance. I'm looking hard now but not finding any real good deals. Spirit has Pin head at $ 50 off plus you can use your 20 % coupon as well........not bad.........but I'm looking for even better deals........may not find any till Nov. 1 at the rate.

The merchandise was so weak this year that I'm not looking forward to my Nov 1st shopping spree the way I normally do. I'm thinking I might not even go because I can't think of a place that has much that I like.

Have been running low on budget since quite a while and so have been anticipating Halloween clearance....it's no unfortunate time of the year.... to many like me, it's the best time to wait for!!

Thanks for providing the list though!

I'll have to check out Michaels and Jo-Ann. I used to buy only what I -really- wanted to have every year and wait until the clearance to buy things for next year. I'd always get what I wanted (such as a bunch of mist making skulls and cauldrons for $5 down from $20) but this year the general retail stores seem to be completely picked over even before any clearance started. Some of the items I would have paid full price for just to get them and they were already gone by the 3rd when we went out to check the sales. So I'd better get to the craft stores as soon as I can.

I agree, November 1st isn't the fun day it used to be.

I am looking forward to Walgreens 75% off though. I always score some good stuff there.

Be careful at Jo-Ann, Zane. Their mark up is so high, you can often find other stores offering the same or similar items priced at 70% off Jo-Ann's regular price. And that's BEFORE Halloween!

Yah, you aren't kidding about Jo-Anne's. They had for village houses 5 lights plus cords in a package that come together, and they were $15!!! At Michael's even though you only get 4, they were $7. You know though at Michael's those Lemax houses are ridiculously overpriced because it's all about the coupons. Really, a $100 for a porcelain house that has sounds??

Halloweenfan, are the Lemax houses actually made of porcelain? I thought they were made completely of resin!

I realize you're paying mostly for the design (some are really clever!), but the workmanship and materials doesn't justify the high price tag, IMO.
