Halloween is Monday and I’m sure everyone is super excited about it!  Just wanted to remind you that the Halloween Clearance Sales will start on Tuesday.  Most stores go by the 3-3-2 Rule. 

The first 3 days are usually marked 50% off, the next 3 are 75% and the last 2 days are 90% off.  Keep in mind that stores may add in a 30% off for a few days at the beginning.. But with Thanksgiving stuff to put up immediately, they probably just want the Halloween decor out of there.

By taking the time to shop clearance now, you will have cute decorations and even costumes at a fraction of the price for next year!  Just store them away in your Halloween boxes in the basement and you’ll have everything you need next year without paying full price for it.

  1. Last year I bought my sons Halloween costume for 90% off. It only cost me $1.40!! I’m going to see what I can do again this year! It’s totally the way to go!

  2. This is a silly question, but why the “3-3-2 rule” if “the first 3 days are usually marked 50% off, the next 2 are 75% and the last 2 days are 90% off” Am I missing something? Is it suppose to be 3 days of 75% off? Want to plan accordingly, thanks!

    • Oops!! Yes, 3-3-2. So 3 days at 75% off usually!

  3. Is this at every store, like the Halloween specialty stores?

    • No, im talking big box stores like Target. Halloween Specialty stores usually will start discounting on actual Hallowen day.

  4. I heard that Target stores are doing a test run in Utah and they are only going to let their clearance go to 50% off. And no more than 50%

  5. Kelly I think it is a typo. If you click on the blue underlined 332 rule in the post it takes you to the original post about clearances and that one says 3 days at 50%, 3 at 75% and 2 at 90%

  6. Honestly – it just depends on the store as well. I have been to stores that stayed at 50% for a couple weeks. Shopko seems to be one that hits 90% pretty quickly – I always try to go there the week after Halloween. KMart is hit or miss here- I have purchased things at 75% (REALLY nice costumes) and other years there is nothing left when it’s still 50%.
