I had to make a quick run to Target last night, and as I was heading in to make my purchase, I glimpsed some of my favorite red clearance tags out the corner of my eye, so I stopped to take a closer look!   There were a lot of Crayola items and quite a few craft projects, like jewelry making, painting projects, mosaics, etc. on clearance – a couple items at 30% off, and a lot of 50% off.  Clearance varies widely from store to store, but you may want to check your Target’s kids’ craft selection the next time you are there.

Keep in mind that clearance can vary greatly from store to store but it is always a good idea to check your Target for some of these deals if you will be making a trip there anyway.  When you find a great Target clearance deal, leave us a comment to let us know!

Target Clearance Tips:

• There are not always large signs advertising 15%, 30%, 50%, or 75% off.  Often there are just small red clearance tags on the shelves by the price tags and/or small clearance stickers on the items themselves.
• Don’t trust the clearance sticker or the large clearance signs!  Without fail, I find clearanced items under a large 30% off sign that are actually ringing up as 50% off.  Find a Price Scanner before you decide against an item to be sure you aren’t missing out on an even lower price.

Valentine’s Day Clearance:
As of yesterday (Monday), my Target still had their Valentine’s Day items priced at 75% off.  But many people are reporting their Target has dropped to 90% off.  If your section isn’t clearly marked with 90% off signs, it might be worth your time to check a couple things at the price scanner.

“The Great Save Event” Clearance:
When I went by Target this weekend to pick up clearanced Huggies diapers, the “Great Save Event” clearance was still intact and filled multiple shelves on a side wall of the store.  As of Monday, there were a few sad-looking items remaining on that wall.  As I walked through Target, I noticed that some of the “Great Save Event” clearance items had been put on end-caps closer to their appropriate sections.

Kitchen Clearance:

Some fun finds in the kitchen aisles:
Hamilton Beach Wave Power Plus Blender: Originally $39.99. Now $27.98.
Brita 6-Cup Carafe Design Water Filter Pitcher: Originally $22.49. Now $11.24 (50% off!)
Pur Water Filtration System: Originally $23.09. Now $11.54 (50% off!)
Oster Warming Tray: Originally $29.99. Now $20.98.
Oster Party Starter Buffet Server: Originally $49.99. Now $34.98.
Oster Buffet Server/Warming Tray: Originally $49.99. Now $34.98.

Office Clearance:
There were a few things marked 75% off in the office section, including this Dry Erase/Corkboard which was originally $12.99 and is now $3.24 and these super cute Day of the Week Magnets which were originally $4.49 and are now $1.12!

Home Clearance:
If you are planning some Spring home improvement projects, swing by the “hardware” aisle.  There were several varieties of drawer knobs and handles anywhere from 30-50% off.  This 3-Hook Rail was originally $19.99 and is now $9.98 (50% off!).  The round 10-Knob Value Pack was originally $27.99 and is now $13.98 (50% off!).  The smaller 10-Knob Value Pack was originally $16.99 and is now $8.48 (50% off!).

These Motif Peel & Stick Wall (or Fridge) Appliques were marked 50% off.  The boat appliques were originally $14.69 and are now $7.34.  The calendar appliques were originally $9.89 and are now $4.94.  This  Simple Human 12-Liter Round Step Can was 30% off (originally $29.99, now $20.98).

Outdoor Clearance:
Our Florida readers won’t find this deal in their stores but if you live far enough north to have seen some snow this winter, you might want to check and see if your Target has clearanced their snow shovels.  This Toro power snow shovel was originally $109.99 and is now $27.48 (75% off!).

Shoe Clearance:
If you walk through the shoe section, you will likely see whole aisles (or at least several endcaps) with clearanced shoes.  This wall of shoes was marked down to 50% off at my Target store.

Baby Clearance:
If you know anyone expecting a baby later this year, these might make a great baby shower gift!  My son spent most of this winter in these sleepsacks!  The Halo SleepSack was originally $19.99 and is now $13.98.  The Slumberback was originally $12.99 and is now $9.08.

Exercise and Fitness Clearance:
There was a ton on clearance in the fitness section at my Target store.  I guess it is that time of year when people are starting to give up their New Year’s resolutions.   If you printed the Target web coupon for $5 off the purchase of two Gaiam fitness items which expires on 2/26 (no longer available to print), this might be the time to use it.  This Gaiam Balance Ball Chair was originally $79.99 and is now $39.98 (50% off!) and the Gaiam Audio Yoga Mat was originally $29.99 and is now $20.98.

Other brands are also on clearance.  The Women’s Health “Lean Body Workout” (includes resistance tubing, weighted fitness ball, jump rope, and body ball) was originally $39.99 and is now $19.98 (50% off!).  The Trainerball (exercises printed directly on the ball) was originally $29.99 and is now $14.98 (50% off!).

Happy Clearance-Hunting!  Let us know what you find!
