How can you not love after holiday sales!?!

If working at Michaels has taught me anything, it's that within two days of a holiday, the product goes on sale for 50%. Shortly after it will go on sale for more, like 70%. If there's too much left (like at Christmas), it will eventually go on for 90% off. And since I work there and get there early most days, I get first dibs. Plus all the Valentines stuff I got today (Hello Kitty stickers and cards, and Lindt chocolate!) were 70% off and were considered "clearance" so my discount applied! After Christmas I got a 2 foot tall prelit pink tinsel tree for only $2. Thing is that you have to wait and hope that what you want is still there... and if it isn't, you prolly didn't need it anyway.
