It was the same way for me at Target stores! I was so disappointed by the lack of clearance. Yay for finding things at your thrift store... Those paw patrol erasers are adorable! Beautiful gift bags and gift boxes. I love all the DT coloring books. Our dollar tree items are now 1.50 and we rarely have items from DT go down in price, unless it's food related. Those pencils will be great for your awesome pencil packs you make. 🎄❤️✏️ I love the mini stockings - so cute...those would also be good incorporated into Christmas pencil packs. The Buffalo check print reminds me of your chest game shoebox! Love the rainbow colored pencils 🌈 Thanks for this OCC Haul, friend..lots of variety in your finds!
Thanks so much, Diana!! So disppointing about Target Christmas clearance. Super shocked I found something at the thrift store. Oh wow, sorry your DTs went up in price. I guess just like US. Great idea incorporating the Christmas pencil packs. Yes, the buffalo check print also reminded me of the chess box I did last year! Thanks Diana! I look forward to your 2023 videos!
i love clearance shopping for OCC!!! didn't get much this year after Christmas, but i really enjoy seeing what everybody else found... i feel like its a win for all of us in the community! thats what i tell myself so i dont get too jealous, lol! i like all the fabric bags and pencils you got, so many great finds... thanks Sharon! 💖💖💖
Thanks Niki! I do too! Great deals for OCC out there. Even though this haul looks big, I usually get 3x the amount after Christmas clearance. But I have a good OCC stockpile so I'm fine. I do too, I'm happy for others that finds deals. Because really, it goes back to the children. I love the fabric bags and pencils as well. Thanks again, Niki!
Here in Canada, our Dollar Tree store items cost $1.50 each plus 13% tax: so we pay $1.70 per item. Our Dollar Tree stores do not reduce the prices after every season: Christmas, Valentines day, Easter etc. They very quickly remove that season's items off of the shelves. You are very lucky to get such low prices for your items.
WONDERFUL Haul Sharon! I can’t believe you were able to find so much! My stores are soo washed out in my local area, this is amazing! So glad you were able to find so many goodies ❤️ Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much, Kaela! Sorry to hear about your stores on Christmas clearance. I usually buy 3x the amount of Christmas clearance for OCC at this time every year. But I'm sure there will be more clearance for the rest of the year. Thank again!
TF. My experience with after Christmas clearance was a similarly poor showing. Dollar Tree had nothing, so I shopped some for my favorite items that were restocked. Our Walmart and CVS really had no Christmas clearance this week. But I found a few items at Dollar General and Walgreens. It certainly is more hit and miss than it used to be. Glad you found some things, and good luck with your upcoming move.
Thanks Lolly! Yes, very disappointing. But I'm confident there will be other deals for us rest of the year. Sorry to hear about your lack of Christmas clearance as well. Thank you, I'm preparing my OCC stock already for a potential move.
Your video didn't pop up for me! I am so excited to see your clearance haul! Love the thrift store eraser find! I did hear that some DT are selling 4/$1! I love those gift bags! We can use them all year because the heart is not valentine day specific. I love colortivity brand also. Those adult books rang up $1.25 for me too. They adjusted the price though. Great find on the pencils! My stores were all out of those. Awesome! Love the fabric gift bags from Walmart! That would have been amazing if you found more of those Ticonderoga fat pencils at that price! Thanks for sharing! I think you did great!
Thanks Denise! I haven't heard 4/1 at my DTs yet. Christmas Clearance probably already sold out by now. Love the gift bags too. So surprised to see Christmas Colortivity coloring books at DT! I do feel school supplies will be clearancing out this winter. So I will definitely out every time I go to Walmart. Thanks again!
Really great finds, especially the pencils. Can’t wait to start seeing your boxes. Good luck with your move.
Thanks Maritza! Yes, love the pencils too. Very happy with that. Thank you! I have already started preparing my OCC stockpile for the potential move.

I think you did really well at Walmart, just with the drawstring bags and pencils. Great haul overall. 👍👍
Thanks Trish! Despite the small haul from Walmart, I'm happy with my finds. Thanks again!

I didn’t have much luck at Target either but your overall haul is so great. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Val! Yea, very little at Target. But I know you still got a lot from Hobby Lobby. So that's great.
Great haul I love all the items you were able to find. Thank you for sharing. I'm sorry your didn't have much luck with Walmart or Target.
Thanks so much, Bonnie! It's ok, I found items weeks later. I'm not worried, God will provide.

Do you use the Christmas boxes to pack OCC items?
No, I plan to use those for regular gift boxes. Those are too flat for my OCC shoeboxes.
