Clearance Deals



Howdy ho everyone!
(not sure where that came from)

I just wanted to get out a quick post to show you some recent deals.
My mom is flying in tomorrow so I will be busy this week.
I’m sure there will more shopping to be done.
I think I’ll drag her to the outlet mall. I haven’t been there in quite some time.

Okay. Back to the deals.
I saw these at Lowes in with the summer clearance.

They were only 3 dollars! So I got 2.
I went looking at another Lowes for other colors and they still had theirs at 6.
But they did have red and green. I held off for now.

The yellow was Fall-ish enough for me.
They are sold as ice buckets. They even came with instructions which cracked me up.

I filled one with some quilts in anticipation of some cooler weather.
One can hope.
The other one might get filled with some fall mums.
(note to self: buy fall mums)

Then I went to TjMaxx and they had a ton in their clearance isle.

These were marked down to only 2 dollars. 
I bought the last of the green ones but I like the mix.

I also like that they have a design on the inside as well.

So those are few of the deals I found this past week.
I hope to find more when out shopping with my Mom.

Have a great week everyone!

  7. Lovely plates. I also like how they have designs inside and out. I try to ignore such deals because I have way to many plates already. Sometimes they are so pretty I can't resist.

    I found your blog via Coastal Charm's Nifty Thrifty Tuesday.

  12. One of these days when I actually have some money to spend, I'm heading to Home Goods. I love them, TJ Maxx and Marshalls. They are all the same company but each is unique in different things. Great bowls!!!!

  16. Anita,
    LOVE the colors ad the quilts and bowls...they all look wonderful together. I have an ice bucket that we use for pool toys. It's pretty grungy, but it sure was cute when I first got it!

  17. Those buckets are great! Your quilts looks so pretty in them, Anita. I found a few of those bowls at Maarshall's the other day and love them. I got a couple green and then a couple orange for Fall. I wish they'd had the blue. Have a good visit with your Mom!

  18. Loving the yellow bucket. Is that galvanized on the inside? I'll have to check our Lowes out now. I never seem to hit them when they have good clearance sales.
    Now I did find a deal on fall Mums though. 3 HUGE mums for $12! I was so happy! It was at a local farm stand.

  22. I'm generally not much of a "yellow" person but I love that bucket ... in that color! I also love a bargain and spend WAY too much time at TJ Maxx.

    I'm so impressed with your finds.

  28. That bucket would look great filled with ice & Champagne for an outdoor Spring party! When not in party mood then filling it with gorgeous quilts is a perfect idea!

  29. The yellow "ice bucket" is so cute! I like Melissah's idea - hmmmm..... might have to run down to our local Lowe's and see what I can find! Yellow works year-round for me.
