Store Markdowns at Fry's!!

Went to Fry's this morning and noticed there were several unadvertised "markdowns" or "clearanced" items throughout the store.  These are great sales to match up with coupons for additional savings!  I took a few pics of some of the things I noticed.  There were several more but I tried not to over do it in pictures :-)  Just want to give you an idea of what the tags look like.  I recommend taking a quick stroll through every aisle when you shop to look for these types of great deals!!!

Coupons are great & so are closeout stores!


There's nothing like handing the cashier a stack of coupons and watching the total amount due on the screen get smaller and smaller!  But what about those items that still cost a pretty good penny even with a coupon?  Or what about those times when your stockpile has run out and you don't have a coupon for an item?  Well, believe it or not there is a way to save without a coupon - you can save at a store that sells closeouts, like Big Lots!

It's been awhile since I had visited Big Lots but I took some time to browse the store the other day and I was pleasantly surprised to find great pricing on things that we use often.  For example, they carry Air Wick, Glade and Febreze air freshners, oils, etc.   Their normal price is well below the normal price at even Walmart!  The Febreze Homoe Collection diffuser is only $2.50 @ Big Lots (regular price) and the Glad oils with a warmer are only $2.25!  Same holds true for many health & beauty and cleaning items! 

So next time you are out of a coupon and need an item, rather than going to a regular store and paying retail, check out a closeout store like Big Lots and buy the item at a much lower price than retail!
