My 70% Off Target After-Easter Clearance Trip

So I managed to sneak out early afternoon to try my luck at 70% Off Easter and I was so happy to find still a lot left at my store. I found quite a few super-cheap goodies- like Kraft Bunny Mallows marshmallows for .35 cents a bag, and I found a ton of Easter-themed bags of Pepperidge Farm Goldfish for just .59 cents each so I bought six ‘cuz I love ’em too. 🙂 I also found a Fisher Price Little People Wheelies car and used the 10% Off Select Fisher-Price Items (including Little People) Target Web Coupon x5/12.

There were also still lots of PAAS products at my store so I picked up a pack of the Doodle Pens for next year. I also bought spring themed stickers, a craft kit, an awesome mini Bundt Cake Pan, window clings, plastic eggs, and some easter grass. I found a tin pirate pail for $1.50 I will use as a catchall in Austin’s room, Hot Wheels Puzzle Erasers for .59 cents and I picked up a few other things for a friend. I spent a total of $16.51 and saved $55.02 and successfully resisted the urge to buy any chocolate! 😉

Don’t forget to take a good look around the store too- sometimes not everything will make it to the clearance area and it’s worth scoping out the store a bit. I found my Goldfish on an endcap up near the front register- and it’s probably why it was so well stocked since there was no clearance sign in sight! I hope you all find/found some great Easter clearance bargains today as well!
