DH and I went this morning, and we didn't see anything that was out of the regular Disney Sales. Kind of disappointing but we were able to pick up a few things (like always).
I know that Disney ususally does an annual clearance sale in Jan(i think towards the end of Jan) Last year i bought some awesome souvenirs to take with us to Disney in Feb. Hope to do the same this year, hopefully the first person to know the dates will post here.
The stores have the "Semi- Annual Sale" in January and June. The deals are usually really great. I have picked up t'shirts for $5 and sweatshirts for $8 as well PJ's for $10.
I have lucked out the last 2 years by getting shirts that ended up being nice surprises in the kids suitcases upon arrival at WDW.
We were at the Limeridge Disney Store today (Hamilton) and there were quite a few items (mostly clothing from what I noticed) that were an additional 25% off already reduced prices. However, I agree that the better sales are later in January, because DD's b-day is in early Feb. and I always get great deals there for her at that time.
I went to the Eaton's Centre store yesterday. There were ok deals, but nothing like the Jan sales. They had the Lightning McQueen car sets 2/$25 and they are $20 for one set at TRU. They had a table with kids tee shirts for $6.99. People were buying like crazy. The lines were long. I have seen much better deals at that store before.
