Not Made Of Money

Well I had to venture into my local Target this morning.  I was mainly going to browse the clearance sections and see how much merchandise is left to go on sale at 75% off later this week. 

The store was very busy.  Lots of bargain hunters but mostly the Target employees were very visible in every department, placing those lovely red clearance stickers on tons of items.   There were lots of Christmas items in every department, candles, candy, red gift boxed sets, wrap, outdoor decorations, lights, trees, gift bags.  The special kids fragrance kits were 50% off (Strawberry Shortcake, Hello Kitty, etc.).  There were little entire shelves full of holiday linens including linen table covers, chair covers, table runners, and napkins.  The flannel sheets sets (Christmas themed) were also 50% off.  My overall assessment is that there will be plenty of merchandise to choose from when the 75% off starts which, according to my estimates, will be this Friday or Saturday.  I will be at my Target at opening time on Friday to see if the items go to 75% off.
