How to Save Money for Easter (Next Year)

Easter is over but who says you can't take advantage of the deals for next year? Yesterday I was at Target and everything was 50%. Here's my tip to you: always shop the "after" holiday clearance sales!

These were $1 each!

I don't mean the candy of course, but for Easter, I recommend picking up two or three boxes of the dye kits, dyeing cups if you don't already have them, and plastic Easter eggs which are now $1 each. At some point they will mark them down again to 75% but by then it might sell out so why chance it?

Other stores I recommend are Walmart, Michaels (for the crafts), drug stores, and grocery stores.

I got these last year at Michael's when they went on clearance. 

And lastly, I don't think I need to remind you to Recycle, Recycle, and Recycle those plastic eggs.
(Tip: This year I went through my "recycled" stash without digging into the new stash ;))

How about you? What do you do to save money for Easter? Would you like to add another tip to the list?
