Some stores have their clearance (marked down in price) items all in one place, others have a section in each department. No matter what store it is, I know where they keep the clearance items! I love clearance shopping so much that I affectionately call it "Clarence". We go into a store & my husband asks me if I'm going to go see Clarence. Of course I am! Yesterday at Wal-mart they had several perennial flowers on sale. I bought about $25 worth. All the plants were $1-$4 each. I bought several for my yard & some that I'm going to plant on my grandpa's grave. Do you shop in the clearance aisle? Please share some of your great finds with us!

I got my laptop computer from Clarence, last year. I needed a new computer, and we wanted something good but inexpensive, so we got one of the ones that they were trying to clear out of the store, because it was sold to us at an extremely reduced price. It's a great computer.

I will only shop in the clearance isle, unless it's groceries. I just don't see the point of buying something brand spanking new, when you can get one just a bit worn or returned for much of a lesser price. Even the mark down items are usually a good find if you catch them before anyone else. lol, i love bargin hunting.

I would have never thought to rename it Clarence, but yes, I am definitely a clearance shopper. The majority of everything that I buy comes from the clearance sections. My best find, is probably that I'm able to buy clothes ahead for my children and keep their wardrobes maintained for under 100 dollars per season. I've also done almost half of my Christmas shopping already on Amazon and I've only spent 25 dollars out of pocket. This is a combination of their toys outlet and Amazon gift codes that I earn through one of my game websites.
