Target is known for its clearance deals, and if you can time the shopping right you should be able to walk out knowing that you paid pennies on the dollar for some of the cutest clothes and most popular toys of the season. You can find clearance sections in nearly every department of the store. Learn the best ways to score deals on nearly everything that you may need from Target.
What to Look For
You will need to keep your eyes open to find the clearance items at Target. In the clothing sections, the clearance racks are generally towards the back of each section with a clearance or sales sign on top them when the signs says fifty percent or more off, you know that you have found a great deal. Another key is to do a sweep around the perimeter of the store and look at the end caps. These often have the best clearance deal on them. Clearance deals are not on the main aisles, but you may want to do a sweep down the end caps that run along another shelf, as well. You can find Target clearance furniture on a clearance row in the furniture section. You can find deals on everything from camping gear to toys along these sections.
When to Look
The key to finding the best clearance deals is to know when to look. You can find toys on clearance in January, and summer toys on clearance in August and September. The clothes for the previous season go on clearance when they bring in the new clothing, so winter clothes generally go on clearance in March and summer clothes in August. Understanding the sales cycles is key to scoring the best possible deals on your clearance items. If you are unsure about an item, and you see several still left on clearance, wait and it will eventually be marked down even more, which can make the decision to buy the item even easier. You can also look for candy and seasonal items in the week after each holiday. One of the best times to stock up on candy is the day after a holiday.
Best Time to Shop
The best time to shop is early in the morning. The night crew usually completes the major stocking and moving around of items. Getting there early in the morning can help you score the best deals and snatch up multiples of each item that is on clearance. If you have coupons for money off of each purchase or you use your Target card to save ten percent on each purchase, you can really have the savings add up. Just remember to pay your bill off completely or you will end up paying more in interest than you actually save on the purchase. Most Targets will mark down Home items on Thursdays, which means you can find the best deals on Target clearance furniture on Thursdays. If you hit the clearance areas each week, you should be able to find good deals on a regular basis.
Sorting to Find the Treasures
The best deals are not going to be easy to find. It does take time to carefully sort through all of the hangers on the rack to find the best deals. Often other shoppers will hide items in the wrong size or things get sorted wrong. Take time to sort through everything, and every size to make sure that you are not missing anything. Some of the best deals are hidden between the two bright and loud extra large skirts. Similarly when you are looking at the end caps look behind the first items on the shelves to see what else is hidden, you can also look through the items hanging on the racks to see if you can score an even better deal. The prices should be clearly marked on each item so that you know just how much you are going to pay at the register.
Don't Forget to Look Online
Many people forget that most major retail stores also have an online store. You can find great deals at Target.com that can help you save even more money. If you shop carefully, you can find coupons that help you save money on shipping and on your overall purchase price. The online store often has even better deals and a wider selection of clearance items then you would find in your brick and mortar store. Additionally, it is easier to check back every day to find new items that have been added to the list. If you shop correctly and know your size, you should be happy with the savings you get at Target. Don’t forget to look online to find some the best deals on Target clearance furniture.
