Here’s where our Hip team is shopping for clearance…
“I really don’t have the patience for store clearance and will just filter sales/deals online if I need something and want to try and get a good deal. That said, you can normally catch me at the Target Christmas clearance section. It’s the perfect time for me to stock up on pretty wrapping paper, ribbons, gift boxes, etc. that I would never pay full price for and then I know I’m all stocked up for the next year when it quickly rolls around.” – Sara
“KOHL’S!! I get to save big on brands that aren’t eligible for coupons for the boys like UA and Nike and adidas, AND I get to upgrade my wardrobe and get the styles I loved so much when they were full-price but on clearance! It’s not always packed full of out-of-season items either! And when they do the extra 50% off, deals are INSANE!!” – Jenna P
“Target is my fav store to shop for clearance home goods and holiday merch (Christmas & Halloween specifically). I only buy holiday merch when it goes on clearance. Followed by Books A Million! They always have tons of sale books (even newer ones), board games, toys, and giftable items perfect for even picky teens!“ – Liz
“I love checking out the clearance sections at nurseries. In most cases, some fresh soil, a little trim and a good feed/watering is all it takes to perk those plants right back up. And that means I can buy more. 😉🪴“ – Cass
“I have only ever shopped it online, but Walmart Clearance finds constantly blow my mind. I’ve gotten so many insane steals under $5 and $10 for great products. Entire outfits, shoes, bags, kitchen accessories, beauty, you name it.
Another one isn’t exactly a store, but a yearly find…the clearance beauty/skincare sets right after Christmas! (At Target, Walmart, Ulta, etc.) So many beauty sets are already amazing value and because they tend to have holiday packaging or Christmas themes, you can get the same great products/formulas for way less.“ – Monica
“Anthropologie clearance is my weakness. Specifically the in-store when it’s an additional half off. The candles and cute clothing are fantastic there. 🥰🥰🥰“ – Lina
“I’m with Lina on the Anthropologie clearance. I’ve bought $200-$300 dresses for $15. I shop it online and live for the extra 50% off. However, I need to take two of those dresses into the store to have the security tags removed so I can wear them somewhere besides the house! 🤣 I also love the clearance at Draper James, ASOS, and Walmart.“ – Cara
“I loooooooove Old Navy clearance!!! I seriously go and find the best deals! Most of the time I buy something for someone else because the price was so good (hello, $2.99 jeans!!)” – Alli
“You can frequently find me trolling the clearance sections at every store I visit, but I find particularly great deals at HomeGoods/TJ Maxx/Marshalls stores.” – Kelli
“I second (or third, or fourth 😉) the Target clearance—especially the after-Christmas clearance!
Probably seems strange, but I enjoy checking out the clearance at our Kroger store. It’s a “marketplace” store, so we have groceries, clothing, home goods, etc. Sometimes things are on clearance because they’re seasonal, packaging changes, store resets, etc. I always try to do a quick run-through of the area on a shopping trip to see if anything catches my eye. I don’t spend a lot of time digging through the items, though (but they have it pretty well organized that you don’t necessarily have to dig either!) I’ve found name-brand kids’ games for $1 or $2, kitchen organization items for a few dollars, and some pantry dry good items that still had 6+ months left on them that were seasonally packaged! 🙌 ” – Jessica T.
YES same as Jessica! I love DIP brand clothes LOL! And ours has had a lot of clearance lately. I put together a fantastic baby gift with clearance diapers, baby products, and a bumbo chair for like $20 the other day for one of my husband’s coworkers and the plant/flower clearance is always good at my store.” – Lina
We can’t wait to hear where you all are shopping for clearance steals!
Stay tuned for more Hip Birthday giveaway posts all week long! 🎉 Until then, let’s get back to the deals…
Kohls for sure!
Target!
Target when I had time to regularly to check out the clearance.
Good items to find
I definitely stroll thru the clearance at Walmart, and they do have some good deals at times. Also, when Meijer clearances clothing, you can get wonderful deals for 90% off of the clearance stickers! 😵💫
My favorite places to go for clearance items are Kohl’s and JCPenney’s. If you take your time, you can find some great gems to add to your wardrobe and home!
Target!!!
Targer or Meijer!
I sometimes find good deals at Kohls, Hobby Lobby, TJ Maxx and Home Goods.
Walmart used to have the best but now I can’t seem to find the deals like they used to have.
I love shopping TJ Maxx clearance – I almost always find something I want/need!
I make wreaths so I definitely hit up the clearance section at Michael’s to stock up on florals, ribbons and wreath forms.
Kohls and Walgreens after holiday clearance are the BEST!! 🛒 🛍️
Kohls!
Walgreens has had several great clearance deals. Unfortunately it was mainly because 2 Walgreens near us closed :/
I truly believe that Kohl’s has the best clearance prices with a good inventory to choose from.
Kohls
TJMaxx and Home Goods about 2 weeks after any major holiday! Best clearance stores and sales to supply the gift closet!
Kohls
Once upon a child.
Hobby Lobby
walmart and the childrens place
Walmart!!!
Target clearance!
Marshall’s/Homegoods!
Walmart and kohls!
Kohls, especially when it’s an extra 50% or more off the clearance price.
i havent shopped clearance section in a store for a while but sears and kohls used to me my fave places to get insane deals
Walgreens always has great clearance items!! There isn’t a specific section, but finding the orange tags around the store AND finding coupons that will work on those items… priceless!!
I never pass a clearance rack or isle without looking but Kohls, Pennys, Walmart, Ross
I just love when Michaels has the clearance blind bags/boxes. Never know what you’ll find and they’re a great deal. If it’s something I can’t use, it gets donated to a good local charity.
Target! One year I got almost all of the toys for my Christmas shopping in their clearance section – and they were all great brands and hot ticket items!
Walmart Clearance aisle if you hit it at the right time, or some of their online clearance, and after holiday clearance. Used to love Target’s end cap clearance, but not so much anymore.
I’m more of an online shopper. But, when I do get out to the stores, I like to go through the clearance aisle at whatever store I’m at.
I feel Walmart has the best clearance
I love shopping for Clearance at every store I go to!!! I find the best clearance at Kohls, Publix, and Target. I am always looking for those end caps or Yellow or Red Stickers!! 🙂
I like JC Pennys. I love when they have clearance and add an extra 50% off. I get great staple pieces then. Sadly ours is closing.
Target
I love when I happen upon Target clearance deals. The 90% off after Christmas is a good one!
hobby lobby
Clearance at TJ Maxx is great. Especially after the holidays.
I always check out the grocery store clearance like at Publix & Kroger. Just have to check expiration dates!
TARGET!!!!
I love Target clearance
JCPenney – I can always get some great options for work!
I find excellent markdowns at my local grocery store—fresh meat, general merchandise, eggs, frozen food. Those are my favorite as we go through a lot of food as a big family!
I always enjoy the hunt at Target!
Dollar General (download the app and use the scanner feature. Sometimes, you can find items at a deep % off, that may not be advertised or labeled with a sale price).
Shopping online is best for me at places like Target or Kohl’s.
We always check the clearance at Walmart. Some pretty good finds!
I’ve gotten a lot of great buys on clearance at Kohl’s
