8 Places for Finding Fabulous Deals

  1. Goodwill...  for items such as:  file organizers, binders, clipboards, picture frames, books, make-up bags, evening clutches, wine glasses, vases, cookware (like the clear or white heavy things you use to cook casserole in the oven), cutlery (need a few extra forks?)
  2. Bargain Hunt....for tissue paper, coloring packs (the things that have 4 crayons & coloring activity books) to entertain kids, socks or hosiery, tape, some kids clothes, electronics, lawn items, & holiday decor items (Bargain Hunt & Goodwill carry Target's items btw! Once Target has marked down to 70% they don't go further- they give it to Goodwill and Bargain Hunt)
  3. Dollar Tree....for black olives, pepperoni, plastic organizers or leftovers containers, kitchen accessories such as dish wands, wine btl openers, knives, oven mits..  If you're on a budget their items work just fine and are much cheaper than finding similar at Kroger.  Also, I like to get party items here and even paper plates bc their party packs of paper plates come with 20 & it's only $1 and convenient for me to pick up there.  Also cleaning items such as their disinfectant spray!  That stuff even the store brand of Lysol are never $1, but at Dollar Tree, you can rid your home of a sickness with 1-2 btls by spraying down all toys, surfaces, doors, etc..  (speaking from experience obv..)
  4. TJ Maxx or Ross or Stein Mart--  depending on when you go, if you are looking for clothes or home goods, or hangers these places have great deals.  I only go to Stein Mart when they are having a sale on sale though.  That means you have a coupon (such as from retailmenot.com) and it will give you say 25% off items already marked down with red.  You have to there, otherwise it's not that great of a deal.  I dare say I have never bought anything there full price... if I did I don't remember!
  5. eBay baby!.... for all sorts of stuff.  Especially if you are looking for a particular item you saw somewhere but you want it cheaper.. ebay hay hay..   
  6. & I can't leave out Amazon-  easiest way to price compare stores for certain (most) items.
  7. Poshmark...for pre-owned items bc sellers get ratings and you can view their closets and see reviews and there is just a very community culture on the app that instills trust
  8. Totspot!  I love this app for pre-owned kids clothes! You can bundle and buy a ton of cute clothes for super cheap!
