Clearance at Walmart


I had to kill some time at Walmart today in between errands. I noticed a lot of clearance at our local Wal-mart here in Texas throughout the store. The items I saw on clearance included:
  • clothes
  • shoes
  • housewares
  • crafts
  • home decor
  • bath and linens
  • toys
  • cosmetics

Let me know if your Walmart has some good stuff on sale...


Tips:

  • Check the original price. When I see a red tag or a clearance sign, my hand automatically starts reaching for my wallet. But if you look carefully, sometimes the sale price is only 20% off.

File Your Taxes for Free

Here's my advice for filing taxes last year. I feel the same way about TaxAct.com. In fact, I just filed electronically today for free and should be receiving my refund in 2-3 weeks!

Tips:
  • Gather all your tax info before starting. This includes w-2's, property tax statements, social security cards, etc.

Children's Place Winter Clearance

I love getting inexpensive children's clothing at The Children's Place.




Tips:
  • You can stock up for next fall, or wear them now. (Did you see my last post? Like I said, it's still cold here.)
  • If, like me, you have an 11-year-old daughter who thinks she's 15, DO NOT buy her clothes that say "The Children's Place" on them. The result will involve slammed doors, tears, and rolled eyes.

Ann Taylor Loft: extra 50% off

Take an extra 50% off all sale items at Ann Taylor Loft!

Tips:
  • Ann Taylor Loft is a great store for good quality casual basics.
  • Don't forget to check their accessories, too.
  • You can still wear the fall/winter fashions that you'll find on clearance. Even in Texas, we've got several more weeks of chilly weather.

Cover Girl LashBlast Mascara Bargain


Costco sells a 3-pk of Cover Girl LashBlast Mascara for $13.99. Use the $3 off coupon in the current coupon mailer to bring the cost down to $3.66 per tube. That's a savings of 54% compared to Walmart's regular price ($7.94). You have about 2 weeks left. The coupon expires Jan. 24th.

Not a Costco member? You can buy it at Ulta for $8.39, throw in some hair elastics to total $10 so you can use their $3.50 off coupon. The final price for the mascara is $5.45.

Or, go to Target, where they sell a 2-pack for $10.99.

Tips:
  • If 3 tubes is too many, split the cost with a friend.
