You've probably been to your local store where you suddenly come across an out-of-place set of shelves or a bin filled with a bunch of out-of-place "stuff" that the store is trying to get rid of... there could be good "stuff" in there, so don't just walk by thinking there's nothing decent amidst all those randomly dumped items! Maybe items are nearing their "sell by" date, or maybe the store just needs to clear out some old merchandise for newer items coming in... the bottom line is that these products are still useable for somebody - maybe that somebody is you!
Just yesterday, I almost walked past one of these clearance bins at a Harris Teeter. I thought I'd stick to my list and not get suckered into any impulse buys - but I backed up to check out what was there. Lots of bottles of hair care products - including conditioners, which I had just noted within the last few days that I needed to start stocking up on again. Just in case, I took out my coupon organizer and searched through my hair care coupons - I had a match! $1 off a bottle of Garnier Fructis shampoo or conditioner - and the bottle of Garnier Fructis conditioner that I had just found in the clearance bin was marked down to $1.27 - that meant I would get that entire bottle (large bottle, not just a sample or travel size) for just $.27!
Needless to say, I gave into one item that wasn't on my shopping list...
