Any one know when WM has 75 percent off? It is 50 percent now.

Most stores do their boxing day leftover sales @ 75% around mid-January here.

Someone on another website said their Walmart was 75% today.Don't know if this 75% off is at all Walmart's in Canada.

In the Oshawa area, still 50% off.

Still 50% off in Ottawa, I'm thinking starting mid-January as well.

I would say Mid-January most stores are now holding off as long as possible and a lot of stores now won't go as low as they used too. Michael's used to go to 90% off now they only go to 75% and toss whatever is left after 75% off.

They TOSS whatever's left???? Rather than take money for it???? Does that make sense to you????? Maybe I'll hang out at the Michael's Trash (Oh that doesn't sound inviting, does it?)

I used to work at Chapters and what we did was sell stuff at %50 for Boxing Day, and whatever was left we'd put up for the "sidewalk sales" around mid-January at %75. Then, if stuff STILL didn't sell, there would be 3 options: the first to hold it until next year's boxing day sale, liquidate it at $1, $2, $3, or to "scrap" it which just means ripping up the books and throwing them out. If we had a nice manager, he/she would allow us to take the stuff home...but normally that's not even allowed. So...go figure...

dumpster diving (yeah) just joking, so sad that they would rather throw items away that potentially liquidate at a fraction of the price, I think if the stores are not interested in liquidating then offer to staff or perhaps even charities. My 2 cents. But everyone is out for a bargain these days with the economy being the way it is.

Was at WM here yesterday and it was still only 50%

OMG...couldn't they donate the books rather than ripping it up. Such a waste. And with so many people having hardships during the tough economic times. I could not bring myself to rip up a book...just couldn't. The thought makes me hyperventilate.

I do know that many clothing stores will burn the left-over fabrics when done with production....and this makes me so sad. Gymboree will do this under armed guard, if you believe that. So competitive. Sigh!

So im just talking to friend on fb who works in that seasonal dept at WM and this what she just told me

"walmart is holding off on putting their xmas items down to 75% off, just found out today, the lady who runs the seasonal stuff asked for me and that was the answer... no details as to when it will go down. all i know is that its staying at 50 for now"
