Christmas Shopping in April with Strategic Shopping
By the time April arrives, many things have been checked off
from the Christmas list and the gift closet is pretty full if we have been following the Christmas with Strategic Shopping the Twelve Months of Christmas book.
With spring comes spring cleaning. With spring cleaning comes sales on cleaning supplies!
You can get some super cheap cleaning supplies this time of year.
When you add coupons and rebates to all of these rock-bottom cleaning supplies, you could even get things for free, or even paid to buy them.
Cleaning supplies make nice gifts.
They don’t expire, so they can
sit in the gift closet for quite a long time.
Put them into a basket
and you will have a frugal and cute gift.
These work great for bridal showers, wedding gifts, and college bound students!
The holiday around this month is Easter.
You will want to wait as the clearance prices play out – 50% off, 75% off, and then 90%
off.
Just like Christmas sales, anything that is sold in the Easter section will be marked down.
This is the perfect time of year to buy Easter baskets.
My target price has always been a dime, but with inflation, it may be a little higher this year.
Yes, I know that they are Easter-colored baskets, but
one can of red or green spray paint turns quite a few Easter baskets into Christmas baskets!
Baskets can be used in making a variety of themed gifts.
Don’t forget to pick up those clearance Easter dresses and suits.
Buy enough for both Christmas gifts and next year’s Easter outfits!
Our April Christmas goals:
