Christy tried to tell me this yesterday, but since I was in a bit of a fog, I completely skipped right over it. But got another e-mail from Kristin today about it- which jumpstarted my brain again! 
Anyway, there is a great rebate for Star Wars toys that goes nicely with the clearance deals on some of the Star Wars toys people have been finding at Target. But you are a little tight on time, since purchases dates are between 5/28 – 7/31.
But, if you buy/have bought $25 or more worth of qualifying Star Wars items (list is HERE) between those dates then go HERE to print out a form to receive either a Dual Action Lightsaber or Captain Rex Helmet for Free! You will need to mail in the form and your original receipts by 8/16. If you want to get both items you will need to submit a separate form and corresponding receipts for each one. Note that if they run out of any items they may substitute an alternative item.
-Thanks Kristin W and Christy of Thrifty & Thriving!
Welcome to the Thursday Bragging Spot! A place where you can show off your Target Shops and Clearance Finds. If you have a blog feel free to link up to your Target Shop below or even if you don’t- feel free to comment and let us know how you did this week and you can always upload your photo to a free service like photobucket and put the link to the photo in a comment describing your shop.
So this week’s photo is from Laura, who has a blog called Inspiration for Moms. There you can find her shopping adventures, menu plans as well as a few recipes, her road to a more organized home, and tidbits of the joys and challenges of everyday life. She saved 67% on the above trip and took advantage of some of the great deals going on this week. You can see the details of her transaction HERE. -Thanks for sharing Laura!
I am going to try and get a clearance post up today- as I have a few e-mails in my inbox, but for now, here’s the linky folks. So show me your shops and clearance finds or just feel free to comment and let me know how y’all did this week or what you found!
Christy and Sara both wrote to me about the clearance deals they were able to grab attheir Target Stores today. They both found lots of great stuff marked down to 75% Off. So I hope many of you out there have been able to grab some great deals, or a re-checking the toy department frequently for the bigger drop.
Different stores mark down different things on different days. Even though some follow similar schedules, one store may mark toys down on Wednesday, while another does it on Thursday. You can always ask at your store, so you know what days to look for which markdowns.
You can take a look at all their finds in their posts. Above is just part of what Christy was able to find and I am envious of all the Playmobil. Austin still enjoys it, but doesn’t play with it as much as he used to. I probably want to play with it more than he does. You can see the rest of Christy’s post (Thrifty& Thriving HERE). And Sara’s post (Sara the Savvy Shopper HERE). Thanks for sharing your finds ladies!
So there was lots of clearance at my store and one of the things I noticed was that there are tons of Air Freshener Products starting to get marked down. For me it was15% Off on most items, but there was literally a ton of it on clearance and across many brands too. Certain Scents from each brand were being clearanced. It was on the endcaps and all over the aisle. I am going to do a little round up as this should be something to watch for a further drop, if you haven’t noticed a biggger drop than me already. These are the things I saw and a quick coupon round up too.

I hope many of you have been able to find/and or are checking in frequently in the toy department these days for the abundance of toy clearance that has seems to be happening a little bit early at many stores. Alison sent me this pic- and she made out like a bandit and found all kinds of goodies today for 50 & 75% Off. Her favorite find? A Fisher Price Stride-to-Ride Lion, marked down from $42.99 to $10.74. -Thanks Alison, Frugal Jacksonville Mom!
Marlene M. let me know she found Green Works multi surface cleaner for $2.48 and select Dawn products 15% off. She also found Carmex for .86 and Nivea Lip Care for $2.11. -Thanks Marlene!
Ashley G. from Alabama picked up some Axe bonus packs for only $1.98. I believe I saw a comment or two come through for these too. SHe also found the 3-Pack Bonus packs of Colgate toothpaste down to $2.48. -Thanks Ashley!
Stephanie L. found All free and clear laundry detergent, 96 loads, on clearance in Tucker, GA for $6.48. -Thanks Stephanie!
Lindsay found Schick Hydro Gel clearanced down to 1.48 at her store and used the $1/1 Schick Hydro Shave Gel from the 6-13 SS to get it super cheap! -Thanks Lindsay!
And lots of you report finding the gift sets and bonus packs for Gillette, Schick, Veet and Venus down to 50% off or more now, so I hope lots of you find this bigger price drop! Let me know in the comments if y’all found anything else we should know about!
COUPON DATABASE
If you are looking for a coupon that I haven’t mentioned- try checking the Coupon Database. It will tell you what insert or magazine you can find it in, or if there is a printable, there will be a link to the Q.
*Please remember that clearance varies widely from store to store. There is no guarantee you will find the same things mentioned from other readers, but I sure hope you do!
Welcome to the Thursday Bragging Spot! A place where you can show off your Target Shops and Clearance Finds. If you have a blog feel free to link up to your Target Shop below or even if you don’t- feel free to comment and let us know how you did this week and you can always upload your photo to a free service like photobucket and put the link to the photo in a comment describing your shop.
So this week’s photo is from Katie G. from Iowa, who e-mailed me at how she was so thrilled that she managed to print off a few Merona Purse Coupons before it was pulled from Target.com and she scored every one of these purses that were all marked 75% off for free. It just goes to show you that it can be worth it to print a coupon early when it shows up on Target.com. For starters, you usually have at least a couple weeks before it expires and can bide your time like Katie did and wait for great clearance before you pounce with your coupons, but more importantly, coupons for clothing and accessories usually do not last very long on Target.com and I have seen some pulled within 24 hours! So grab ‘em while you can! -Thanks for sharing Katie G!
Before I add the linky, here’s some more clearance finds from my inbox…
Jen I. from Pennsylvania found the Venus and Proglide Razor Kits were all on clearance at her store. She found them all marked down to $4.98. The ProGlide kit is pretty cool and comes several bonus sample items. There were several different Venus kits to choose from. You might want to keep an eye out for a bigger drop on these items and if your store allows, you can use the $4/1 Fusion or the $2/1 Venus to get a great deal. -Thanks so much Jen I.!
Natasha & Carmela report great deals on the boys 6-pack +bonus Pair Hanes socks, on sale this week for $3.79 and finding .50/1 Peelie MQs on them as well. At some stores there are whole displays for them and you can use the $1/1 Hanes Target Q HERE or the $1/1 Hanes Target Mobile Q to get a great deal, especially if you find the peelies! - Thanks Natasha at Saving A Bundle and Carmela!
Tosh let me know she found quite a few clearance items at her store including Outdoor Toys marked 75% off. Some of the items were the Frisbie Goal Set, Hop Swivel Hopper, Bowling Set, Disney Bubbles, Soccer Ball & cones, and a Football. She also found Enfagrow and Enfamil formulas on clearance as well. -Thanks Tosh at Super Coupon Lady!
Cristina let me know that yesterday she spotted the purple Tag Junior by leapfrog on clearance for 50% off, making it $16.04. She had coupons to make it an even better deal, but there are no mainstream ones available right now that I know of. There had been coupons that came on the Easter books and special mailer coupons, but no printables that I know of right now. Even without them, 50% off would be a pretty good deal, so keep a look out. Cristina only found the purple on clearanced though, the green was still at regular price. -Thanks Cristina!
Here’s the linky guys- so show me your shops and clearance finds or just feel free to comment and let me know how y’all did this week or what you found!
For those of you who have seen the tons of Listerine Bonus Packs clearanced at their stores, you may want to keep an eye on it for a drop. Jennifer reported the lowest price I’ve heard, and found it just today down to $2.24 at her store! There are several Listerine coupons you can use to get a break on this item, which includes a travel size Listerine:
.50/1; $1/1 Listerine 05-16-10 RP
.50/1; $1/1 Listerine 04-11-10 RP
.50/1; $1/1 Listerine 03-07-10 RP
Also- Jennifer, was kind enough to e-mail me a picture of the Colgate boxes to watch for that I added to the post HERE, so we all know what we should be looking for!
-Thanks so much Jennifer!!
Clearance can vary greatly from store to store, you may or may not find the same things, but I hope that you do, or be on the lookout for them to possibly come down the pipe!
Tanya in Mesa, AZ let me know she found Merona purses on clearance. She said there were alot of them and most were priced around $4-$7. If you managed to print the Merona Handbag coupon (no longer available) you should be able to get a purse for a really great price. Tanya also found bras on clearance for 75% off, some toys at 50% off, and all summer stuff is 50% off at her store.
-Thanks so much Tanya!
Marissa L. found lots of stuff on clearance at her store in the cough and cold care aisle at 30 – 50% Off. Things she spotted were Vicks, Chapstick, Carmex and Cough Drops including Halls & Ricola.
-Thanks Marissa!
Mary from Texas also found many purses marked down to 75% off at her store as well as several baby items also 75% Off. She spotted $1/1 Peelies on the Kraft Shredded Cheese. (I believe I’ve seen quite a few comments come through on the blog mentioning that too). Anyway, Kraft Shredded Cheese is on sale this week for $2, so keep an eye out as it makes them only $1 each. She also found Gold’n Plump Whole Chicken Breasts for just .99 cents. That’s pretty wild and possibly just at her store- but worth a peek next time you’re in!
-Thanks Mary at Hooked on Bargains!
OTHER TID BITS TO SHARE…
Rita found many Soda 12 packs on sale at her store for $2.50. There is a $1/1 A&W Root Beer, Canada Dry, Sunkist or 7Up Target Mobile coupon, making a 12 pack of soda $1.50 if you find the same at your store. – Thanks Chi-town Cheapskate!
Nancy in PA bought the Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sandwiches and there were coupons on the back of some of the boxes of Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls, so if you’re picking these up on a shopping trip, check the back of the boxes! -Thanks Nancy!
Annette H. in Minnesota found Bluebunny Mint Grasshopper Ice Cream Sandwiches on sale for $2. There was also a peelie for $1.25/1 attached and noted that there were other Ice Cream Sandwich flavors that had peelies too. -Thanks Annette!
And last but certainly not least, Clarice in South Florida found an interesting coupon for $2 Off School Supplies wyb Auro Socks attached to several pairs of Boys Socks that are regularly priced $3.99 & $4.99. It’s likely if you’re buying boys socks you’re buying school supplies, so it may make paying $3.99 for the socks worth it. -Thanks Clarice!
I found the combo pack of Vanilla/Banana flavor YoBaby Yogurt marked down to $2.14 at my store yesterday. While this may be a fluke, and just at my store, there is also the possibility of it being a discontinued flavor or change in packaging or who knows, as the expiration dates I found on these YoBaby Yogurt Packs did not seem to be in a few days or anything. Just something to look for just in case you find the same.
And, in case you were not aware, there are usually always printable coupons available for Stonyfield products. You can get a $1/1 YoBaby Organic Yogurt when you sign in or up HERE. And there are several more coupoons available at the coupons and offers link toward the top right on their site.
I got a couple emails this morning about shoe clearance- Julie R. from Sacramento reported finding 50% off at her store and picked up a $30 pair of Converse for $14.99. And the picture above is from Veronika (in South Florida) who found these and a great many shoes in her Target store marked down 75% Off! You can check out the pics on Veronika’s post HERE and enlarge them if you’d like to take a peek. You might want to browse the shoe section to see if there is bountiful clearance deals in your store too. -Thanks Julie R. and Veronika at Fabulous Daily Deals!.
BTW- You see those little brown Cherokee Boat Shoes (kinda like docksiders) at the top right in the above picture? Well, I almost always take Austin into the shoe department with me when he joins me on a Target trip. Why you ask? Because since he has been old enough to voice his opinion, up until about a month ago, Austin would only wear sneakers and socks. Everywhere!!! Sneakers and socks to the Beach, sneakers and socks to the community water park, and sneakers and socks in the house AT ALL TIMES until it’s bed time!
So I kept trying, I drag him into the shoe department all the time hoping something will be a hit that doesn’t require socks. He will not go near a pair of flip flops, but I at least got him to try on these and he liked them! So finally, he now owns a pair of shoes that he will wear other than his sneakers! It’s a miracle! 
So I will definitely be on the lookout for these and see if I can’t pick up a few pairs, each in a size up. I may have to go beg Veronika to pick me up a few pairs if I can’t find them, as imo they are a very nicely made, comfy, slip-on shoe. And while it’s no where near resembling a flip flop, at least I am making progress considering he’ll wear them sockless!
