Christmas may be wrapped up, but for professional deal hunters, the party is just getting started. This is the best time of year to stock up on gift wrap, home decor, and even everyday essentials for pennies on the dollar. The big box heavy hitters are leading the charge. Walmart starts their 50% off holiday markdown on December 26, but the real magic happens on January 1 when they jump to 75%, and finally hit a massive 90% off on January 6. Target moves even faster, expected to hit that sweet 90% spot by December 30.

If you are looking for more than just tinsel, the pharmacy and craft stores are hidden gems. Walgreens and CVS both start with 50% off on the 26th, with Walgreens eventually hitting 80% off by January 5. For the DIY lovers, Michaels is already at 70% off and will dive to 80% off in early January. Even ALDI is joining the fun with a steep 75% discount starting the day after Christmas.
 
Don't forget the beauty and home favorites during this seasonal rush. The legendary Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale kicks off December 26 with 50% to 75% off those famous three-wick candles and soaps. Similarly, Victoria’s Secret will be clearing out inventory at up to 75% off. If you need to fix up the house, Lowe's and Home Depot already have deep 75% discounts running right now.
 
The strategy here is simple: if there is something you absolutely love, grab it at 50% or 75% off. If you are just looking for a thrill and some super cheap supplies for next year, hold out for those 90% dates. These shelves clear out fast, so put on your most comfortable sneakers and get ready to hunt. Happy shopping, DealSeekers!
