Nov 1 has anyone found 1/2 off candy?

Unfortunately for me our Walmart had candy 50% off AND had some decent candy left. Oh why oh why did I buy so much.

I was in two WalMarts today--both had their candy 50% off. Yep, I bought some!

Thanks guys! By the time our last guest left and I got to Walmart they didn't have anything good left. I ended up at Target. It was 30% but I got several of the big 90 count bags of chocolate candy bars. I will have plenty to do treat bags for the birthday party and send some to school for breakfast with Santa. And one for the shoe boxes the girl scouts do. I would have liked 50% but I got the kind I wanted and I don't have to worry about it now. If it goes 1/2 off on Friday I may pick up 1 more for treat bags to send to school for her birthday but if not that's OK too. Seems like I go through a lot of candy in November!

I'm not a fan of Target's new system. Last time candy started at 50% off and went to 90% off like everything else was Halloween 2009 and only some stores near me had that, others were testing the 30% off and it stayed like that starting with Christmas after that. Now bagged candy doesn't make it to 90% off at Target anymore

Just remember that candy can be saved for Christmas if its not all orange and black...but small children might not notice, lol! Chocolate from Hershey freezes very well


Just sayin'

My Walgreens in Chicago had 50% off today but no big deal really. Got a bag of Reeses peanut butter pumpkins for $3.50. Last week they were on sale for $3.99. So a little savings but not as much as it would sound like. Also most of the good stuff wasnt there today.

My Walgreens was also 50% off but it didn't ring up the price at all on the bag I got (a huge bag of swedish fish & sour patch kids). The cashier asked me if knew the price and I had no idea because the candy aisle was a mess so she rang it up as $2.50.

I may go looking for some more today. Candy corn sounds pretty tasty and I didn't have any at all this season.

Target was 30% on most candy...

but I scored 50% off the last two packages of Reese's Pumpkins!!

What about costumes at Target? Anyone know when they typically go 75% and 90%?

Since Target was only 30% yesterday, I also stopped by Wahlgreen. Their stuff was 50% off but they were already packing it all away to make room for Christmas. They had a few bags of candy piled in shopping carts, but all the decorations and non-candy items were already packed up to ship back. I was able to snag one Mickey pumpkin out of a box before it was taped up.

I don't know but our Target didn't have much of a selection left now so don't wait too long if you are looking for something specific.

I was there late last night and the 3 racks of costumes they had left had been moved out of the way so they could condense shelves and setup more christmas. The racks were not marked. I was hoping to score a clearance pirate costume for our cruise next summer. There wasn't much left and none of that was what I needed, so I didn't bother to price check. Everything in that section was marked 50% though. maybe that included the costumes??

Costumes and home decor were 50% but candy and other edibles were only 30% yesterday.

It was slim pickings, but I was able to get a bag of individually wrapped Twizzlers and one of the Reese's individual packs at Stop & Shop last night, for half off. Because of the storm, our town is having Trick Or Treat on Friday 11/4, and I figured DH might want a bit more than we had originally bought since there may be more kids out and about.

Haven't made it to Target and don't think I will...DS and I are flying to Arizona tomorrow and I'm WAY behind on preparing! Plus we had no power or heat for 3 days so there's even more laundry and dishes around than usual!
