I will add that our Target (in WI) has VERY cute birth announcement on clearance right now. Both girl and boy. Box of 50 for just $3.24 (down from $24.99) I’m kind of picky about cards/invitations/announcements but these I would have snatched up in a heartbeat if I were pregnant!

Yeah, as the store gets busier with holiday shoppers the price accuracy team who usually works M-F will be taken to weekends and nights when the store is heavier so there are more team members for guests and re-stocking shelves. January is totally the best time to shop!

@Beth I have totally noticed that about there not being as much clearance as it gets closer to Christmas. I figured there wasn’t any time to mark it down since they were busy stocking and selling it all. All of the clearance that happens after Christmas more than makes up for the slow time before Christmas. 🙂 I love January at Target!

OMGosh! What is with my typing?? Geez. If they are a day early they will do Tuesday’s workload on Monday and so on.

You are rigt! Women’s gets marked down on Tuesdays. The stores are aloud to get 1 day ahead though so if they are on a roll then the price accuracy team will get there a day early on anday. Same with all depts. You will also find that as the holidays get closer the markdown days will change and for a couple weeks there will be none at all until a week before Christmas when all of the toys start being marked down. Happy shopping!
