Some of you may find up to 70% Off Easter clearance at your Target stores today. Karen headed out to check out her local Texas store and she found 70% off most non-perishable Easter! It was a little strange as some items like Easter grass were still ringing up at 50, but she still found lots of goodies at 70. It may not be that way for all of you yet- but if you don’t see 70% signs- don’t forget to scan just in case the signs haven’t been switched out yet.

Unfortunately candy was stuck at 30 for her – but that sometimes happens and for those of you who drop to 70 too – you may luck out and find candy and food at 50%. Remember- the majority of the Easter clearance will not have stickers- so you will need to verify your prices at the scanner. If you didn’t drop today- there’s a good chance that many more stores will drop tomorrow Thursday, April 5th.

Watch for anything non-perishable that you can use for the following year like Decor, gift bags, paper goods & more. It’s great to be able to save now instead of paying a higher price next year like these Easter Egg dying kits down to .75 cents from $2.50 if your store is at 70.

And Easter baskets that can be used next year too, like these cute felt bunny baskets down to .90 if your store is at 70%.

These fun stuffed plush blue bunnies will be just $3 if your store is at 70.

Also be sure and check Bullseye Playground for possible Easter Clearance. Karen’s store had moved everything back to Easter, and it’s likely most of your stores will do the same, but it’s worth a quick look just in case things got left behind.

And also take a look around for items you may be able to re-purpose for another holiday- like a Birthday, baby shower or even everyday use. For example – sometimes I will use the paper Easter grass for filler in a gift bag instead of tissue paper. And be sure to check other parts of the store too. Some stores don’t get everything moved back to the Easter clearance section right away, and you don’t want to miss any possible goodies.

If you didn’t drop to 70 today, keep a close eye on it, as most stores will likely go to 70 by tomorrow. We usually only see 2 or 3 days between 70 & 90 too, so if you went to 70 today, it could go to 90 as early as Friday or Saturday. Nothing is set in stone with Target though, and all stores do not drop at the same time, so it’s something to watch closely on your own!

Happy hunting and I hope you all have great luck with this year’s Easter clearance!

For those of you headed out to Target today- you should find much of whatever Easter inventory your store has left up to 50% Off. Easter clearance is also a great time to pick up non-perishables for next year- like Easter Baskets, decorations, dye kits, paper plates and other festive disposable party items.

Watch for some of the Easter Basket stuffer toys which would also make great stocking stuffers to hold for Christmas or that would make great party favors. You may also want to check the One Spot for Easter clearance too, but some stores may have already pulled into the clearance Holiday section.

Candy & food items will be at 30% Off to start, and usually they drop to 50% when non-perishables go to 70. Be sure and take a look around the regular aisles too for items that may not have gotten moved back to the holiday section like kids & baby holiday apparel.

As far as when the next drop to 70/50 on Easter will happen- it usually takes about 3-4 days for the next discount, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. There is no definite set schedule and what is left will vary greatly from store to store- but it’s something to keep an eye on at your store if you have interest.

Happy hunting folks!

And, watch for items that can be either be set aside for next year, or re-purposed for birthdays and other occasions, like paper plates, cups, bowls, tissue paper, ribbons, decorations and more.

This store seemed to have gathered up everything and brought it to the holiday section, but it can’t take a hurt to look in other departments like stationery, toys, housewares for items that may have been left behind.

We should see the next drop on the 17th, when non-perishables should go to 70% and candy & some food should drop to 50%. But stores can differ- so it’s something to keep a close eye on in the days to come! Happy hunting and I hope you find some great stuff!

Hope you all are enjoying a Happy Valentine’s Day! Also just a reminder that tomorrow (2/15) is the day when you should see most Valentine’s Day items go to 50% Off except Candy which should be at 30% Off. Some food items typically lag at 30% Off to start with too.

The Valentine’s Day items in Bullseye’s Playground should drop to 50 as well. It’s a great way to stock up on non-perishables for next year- and you may even find a couple goodies you can tuck into this year’s Easter Baskets too!

Reader Tips on Storing Battery-Operated Toys

Odds & Ends

removing-batteriesWith all the Target toy clearance going on, some of you have really lucked out and have been able to gather gifts at a fraction of the cost for the upcoming Christmas holiday, Birthdays and more, I got a couple of e-mails with some good advice that I thought I would pass along.

Many of you may already do this- but Michelle wrote in a reminder that when it’s possible- it’s always a good idea to remove the batteries from toys that will be stored for an extended period of time. There’s nothing worse than discovering a toy doesn’t work and the culprit is corroded batteries- so better safe than sorry.

I also got this same mention about removing batteries from Tish- who also had a suggestion if you have ever discovered a corroded battery compartment… “while sometimes it’s a lost cause- when it is not that bad- I have found that I have been able to use a little witch hazel or rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip to clean out the compartment and get things working again. It’s worth a try anyway since these products are pretty inexpensive and something most people would have in the house already.”

-Thanks for your e-mails & suggestions to Michelle & Tish!
