11 MORE Things to Buy from Bullseye’s Playground in January

By Kristen

I spend a lot of time at Target in January, between the Christmas clearance and the Toy Clearance. And when I’m feeling particularly adventurous, I visit multiple Targets.

And I’m always intrigued by the Bullseye’s Playground at different Targets because I feel like no two Bullseye’s Playgrounds are alike. I know I’m always giving the “availability may vary by store and region” spiel on clearance posts, but this I feel like is “availability may vary by region, store, time of the month, letter the day begins with, and position of the sun” because it’s just so crazy.

I did not see these items at my other store all month. I didn’t even see these items at THIS store all month. So buckle in because I found some hot new deals and I want to talk about them.

I am seriously obsessed with mugs that are big enough to double as soup bowls. Kinda salty at myself I didn’t grab this. Hopefully it will be there the next time I am clearance hunting!

This is a blog about traveling to Disney, so I know ya’ll appreciate some cost effective neck pillows!

And what goes better with your neck pillow than this WEIGHTED sleep mask? Nothing!

But if you’re not tired, you can entertain yourself with all kinds of adorable card games for only $1 a piece.

Stretchy Foam would make an excellent Valentine’s treat for your small human. To play with. Not to eat. Obvs.

Want to keep cable and ear buds tangle free on your next Disney trip? Of course you do! Only $3!

I’m not saying you should fill these with delightful H2O products from your Disney hotel and take them home so you can have that Disney fresh scent a little longer…but I am also not saying it.

I saw this and literally yelled aloud, “WHAT!” Y’all, this is like, a well known and well loved book. And it’s in Bullseye’s Playground for $5? In the words of Forky, “Whaaaaaat? NOOOOO!”

Perfect to keep your little entertained on the flight, in the car, waiting for a ride at Disney.

This guy collapses to save you room in your cabinet. Man, what a time to be alive.

Everyone loves a reusable straw and I know a place these would be great for…starts with Animal ends with Kingdom.

Those were my favorite finds from Bullseye in January. I know I said that last time, but these really are my January favorites. Does your store have similar items? Better items? What have you already picked up for January that you love? Tell in me in the comments!

Target January Toy Clearance 50% Off!

By Kristen on January 11, 2020 at 7:08 pm

“What do you have planned today?”

“I’m going to hit the gym. And then after the gym I thought I would swing by Target. Just pop in real quick and see if toy clearance has gone down any more.”

“Aren’t we doing that next week, at the fancy Target?”

“Yeah, but it’s so close to the gym.”

“No, it’s not.”

“I’m just going to pop in. I don’t think anything I have my eye on will be marked down, so I probably won’t get anything.”

Famous last words, y’all.

We live within driving distance of a few Targets, but usually visit one 2. The closer one, is a 20 minute drive and as far as Targets go, it’s a medium level Target. It’s not as bad as the one on the 25 minutes out, but it’s not as good as a lot of others. But it’s the closest, and this counts for a lot when you have many children you need to transport.

The second Target, the “fancy” Target is in a really nice area, and is very close to the one Costco we have. We usually do a quick walk through when we’re already in that area, at Costco. It almost always has better deals but it is a solid 30 minutes away.

So, just a quick pop in to discover that the store closest to me, the Medium Target, is at 50% huzzah! While a few things stayed at 30% (Legos, mostly) many moved to 50% and even a few bumped up to 70%. I think my hunch about this Toy clearance going by fast was right, so consider popping in soon if you haven’t already.

Vampirina, 50%off sets of all sizes.

Always check the tag, and scan because even though this sign said 30%, almost all of it was 50% off.

Another reason to scan? Multiple tags. Here, this Muppet Babies set says it is 30%, $10.48.

And here, we see it is 50% off, $7.48.

Barbies at 50% off! Quite a few different individual dolls and sets.

You just have to find the tags. ;)

That is upside down, friend.

And a few special ones, like this Sally Ride doll, were 70% off.

Ponies! 50% off all around.

Only $12.48 for this Pinkie Pie.

$14.98 for the Mane 6. $2.49 a pony.

This is the time to stock up on ponies, friends. This is the last season of “Friendship is Magic.” When they introduce the new series, they’ll have new merch to go along with it.

$2.98 for a truck! This seems like a good price? Help me out, boy moms! Is it a good price? 50% off!

Ugly Dolls with the clearance sign in front of them is a big mood.

My kids have never watched She-ra, but they would be stoked about this horse. $14.98.

70% off for this Rainbow Butterfly Unicorn Kitty accessory. I have never heard of this toy before. It’s dress up, maybe?

Oh yes, look, because here for 70% off you can get the Action Power Paws. You can get both for less than retail of one of them. Great deal.

Y’all, I did a survey about this toy. And now he is 50% off.

Another truck, another good deal. $12.98.

Captain Marvel? More like Captain Marvelous Price! 70% off, $8.98.

Legos are still 30% off.

Arts and crafts kits are 50% off too. Here’s a very sparkly one with “body art” accessories.

Here’s one with shapes and scents, two of my favorite things, for $4.98.

$9.98 for this PJ Masks toy that I had to flip my camera upside down to read.

Last time, I said if this hits 50% off it’s coming home with me.

And it did hit 50% off. But something else came home with me instead.

It was not the lovely ladies of Muppet Babies at 50% off, though I was very tempted…

Vision Camera is only $14.98, 70% off the original price of $49.99.

I did a survey about these, too! Now they’re $2.38. I’m starting to see a pattern.

Remember that Christmas where you could not beg, borrow, or steal a Hatchimal? Now you get 70% off! $17.98.

$4.98 for Jackson Storm. I’m noticing that this clearance, there are a lot more girl toys marked down than boys…I wonder why that is.

I don’t know who Lori is, but I went on a journey with this doll and her three different prices.

Paw Patrol! Ultimate Police cruiser! 50% off! No jobs too big, no deal too small! $19.98.

This is perfect for the Aladdin loving tween who needs mood appropriate lighting. $4.48. 70% off.

Remember that time I paid 50% off for these? Now they’re down to 70%. $4.48.

Barbie outfits only $1.48, 70% off.

This is fun. There weren’t even stickers on the individual ones, just the box. I like that.

50% off to make your own slime!

Or buy the slime ready made for $2.48, 50% off.

Or skip the slime all together and go with Playdoh of the same price.

Many fancy Play-doh sets at 50% off.

Big play doh containers were also 50% off.

Take your lil Hatchimals to the salon for $9.98, 50% off.

Third time is a charm, y’all, I took a survey on these! 70% off, only $2.38.

50% off to make the planner in your life squeal with glee at the sight of that Washi Tape.

My Haul

Remember last trip and my lament about the expense of Legos? This was the only one they had and it was hidden away behind 5 Paw Patrol trucks, how could I say no?

I also grabbed a few Lil Woodzez (my kids love how they light up) and some Barbie outfits to help out the one Barbie in my house who always seems to be naked, despite the fact that I know she came with clothes.

Lego Friends Set-$13.98. Originally $19.99.
Lil Woodzeez Blind Acorn (2)-$2.96. Originally $5.98.
Barbie Outfit (2)-$2.96. Originally $9.98

But that’s not all! I had a Target coupon for 10% off my entire trip, which applied to everything but the Legos, saving me an additional $.58

Total Spent: $19.32

Original Retail: $35.95

Total Saved: $16.63

While I did not stick with my, “I won’t buy anything!” claim, I did get some great deals. And now I’m very excited for my trip next week to the fancy Target. If things were this good at medium Target, fancy Target has to be off the chain, right?

Money Saving Tip: Buy Kids Clothes on Seasonal Clearance

By Kristen

My children wear clothes that are covered in bunnies, hearts, stars, and cats. Their wardrobes have a lot of purple, orange, red, and green in them. They look “fancy” (their word, not mine) all year round and if they wear the knees out in a pair of leggings or destroy a t-shirt with paint (on accident, of course) there’s always another pair of leggings or another t-shirt, no big deal.

Of all the clothes I buy my children, 100% are on sale. I do not pay retail for children’s clothes, children being notorious for continually growing. Of that, I would say about 75% of my children’s clothes comes from seasonal holiday sales, usually from 70%-90% off.

Christmas, Valentine’s Day, St.Patrick’s Day Easter, Fourth of July, and Halloween tend to bring with them adorable outfits in holiday appropriate colors, with the mascots and symbols of those holidays splashed across dresses, shirts, and pants.

The shelf life of these items is limited: once the holiday is over, the clothes are no longer relevant, and sold at a discounted price. And that is when I swoop in and buy them because reindeer are cute all year long and red dresses work for Valentine’s Day, Christmas, Chinese New Year… While many stores do this, my favorite is Target because of the swiftness in markdowns as well as the quality of their kids’ clothing.

These are some finds from both Halloween and Christmas clearance this year at Target. Everything in this picture is 90% off.

Caticorn Christmas Sweater-$1.79. Originally $17.99.
Reindeer Dress-$1.50. Originally $15.
Sparkly Time of Year Dress-$1.50. Originally $15.
Caticorn Christmas Tee-$.60. Originally $6.
JackO’Lantern Leggings-$.79. Originally $7.99.
Skelton Dress-$1.40. Originally $14.
Batman Long Sleeve Tee-$.99. Originally $9.99.
Batman Long Sleeve Tee-$.99. Originally $9.99.

Total Spent: $9.56

Original Retail: $95.96

Total Saved: $86.40

You can buy a size or two bigger, and be set for the next holiday as well as grabbing basics in your children’s current sizes. Almost all my children’s t-shirts are seasonal clearance. In the winter, they layer them under sweaters, so who cares if it’s a Halloween t-shirt. In the spring and summer, bunnies and four leaf clovers are year round cool.

Most seasonal apparel will go on sale as soon as the day after the holiday. For smaller retail holidays, Valentine’s Day, Easter, St. Patrick’s Day, 4th of July, look for swift markdowns, with 90% usually coming within 3 or four days. for the bigger retail holidays like Christmas and Halloween, the clearance schedule is longer, usually a week to nine days, with markdowns coming every two days or so. This will vary by region and by store, so if you’re new to sohpping seasonal clearance, expect to put in a few extra trips to the store to get a sense of their markdown schedule.

Kids are always growing, so it’s nice to have a variety of sizes on hand, because you never know when a spurt will hit. I also love that because I’m not freaked out about the cost of clothing I can let them just be kids: play outside and tear a knee in a pair or pants or get a shirt covered in art project. It’s a lot easier to be the fun, cool mom when those pants cost less than $1.

For less than the cost of one shirt, I was able to get three dresses, three tees, one sweater, one pant. That’s a whole seasonal wardrobe! Spending less money on children’s clothes will help your budget, with your surplus going to something you need, like paying off a bill or saving for a Disney trip. When you buy voles in the sizes up, you’re also saving money from that future year’s budget! It’s a win-win situation.

Target January Toy Clearance 30-50% Off!

By Kristen on January 6, 2020 at 10:41 am

So I’m hitting up my second Target, like I do, for that 90% off Christmas clearance that went so well at the first Target. And I say to my husband, “I’m just going to run over to toys right quick, see if they’re officially in clearance mode.”

Reader, they were officially in clearance mode. They were already transferring toys to the designated clearance aisles. Endcaps were getting filled. The big yellow signs weren’t out yet, but there were more than a few little yellow guys peeking out, alerting the shopper to the sale within the shelf.

And get this: while the majority was 30% off, there were more than a few items for 50% off. 50% off you guys! The first week of January. Here’s what I found.

These Leap Frog game packs were 50% at $7.48. I have no idea what they do, but they looked super cool.

$11.88, 30% off, for Little Tykes Wheelz.

Keep the 30% off for car love coming! $7.68 for this three set of Tonka trucks.

$5.58 for Kingdom Builders. I don’t know these toys, but the name “Sir Wrench-A-Lot” made me laugh out loud.

These were all the rage last Christmas and now they’re 30% off. $20.98.

This baby doll apparently does it all! And at 30% off! $31.48.

Okay, I love these. IF my store hadn’t had 10000 of them, I would have gotten them. Incredibles fashion dolls, 37% off, $9.50.

You could also get the whole family for 30% off, only $35.01, which ends up being $7 a doll. Arguably the better deal.

A batter powered Hogwarts Express for 50% off! Magically only $49.98.

Reindeers are better on sale. Sven is only $48.98 and I had to literally pull my children off him. I’m in trouble if he makes it to 70% off.

Sports! 30% off, $24.48.

For the pretend play elite, there is this KidKraft Artisan Chic kitchen at 30% off. A stylish $90.98.

Incredibles Dress Up set, 40% off at only $9. These Incredibles items are strangely priced, which means they may not go down further. Usually, if at item ends in .98, it could be further discounted. $.01 or $.99 or $.0 usually do not. Usually. I say that now, watch next week they’re 82% off or some other strange number.

30% off Hatchimals. This fits perfectly on theme with an Easter basket. Just saying.

I remember the days before my daughter was obsessed with Legos, when I was like, “who spends all this money on little plastic bricks?” Fast forward to today. Who does? Me. I do.

I used to think, “Who gets so excited about 30% off discounts?” How the mighty have fallen. Now my husband is texting me, “Quick, there are two sets of Toy Story 4 Legos at 30% but another family is eyeing them!” We are now the people who hide Legos.

Mini horse for $4.18. Great for all horse loving friends, not just “Spirit” fans.

Lots of Play-Doh options. This one is $3.50. Great for baskets, stockings, or the rainy day activity box!

Vampirina, Fancy Nancy, Muppet Babies, and Puppy Dog Pals all had items at 30% off. This Vampirina car is $17.48.

This is a fun Littles Pet Shop! It comes in a lamp. Perfect for your Aladdin fan at $2.08.

30% off for the Mane Six. At $20.98, that’s $3.49 a pony.

Fashion Dolls galore marked down. Barbies, DC Superhero Girls, and She-ra!

Only $13.98 for Toy Story in a Box! I wonder how they fit Tom Hanks in there…

During the 30% off Preview, Buzz was marked down 30% Now this true to size Woody joins him! $62.98.

Sometimes when I am taking pictures of boy’s toys I am like, “What is this? It’s not pink and sparkly, so I have no context.” I think this is a surprise pet of some kind? $13.98.

And you can get smaller versions for $5.98.

The Clown Prince of Gotham is 30% off, only $13.98.

50% off Buzz Lightyear Star Command! Only $59.98.

This giant car truck thing (girl mom!) is 30% off, $41.98.

Two in One Mack Mega Hauler (thank you for putting the name clearly on there, Disney) is 30% for $69.98.

You child can bake real tarts for you in this Nom Nom oven for 30% off at $38.48.

My Haul

Y’all, I could not help it. Legos are expensive! And now we’re all set for Christmas!

Toy Story 4 Lego set-$17.98. Originally $24.99.

Target Disney Clearance: Look Outside The Holiday Clearance Aisle!

By Kristen D on January 3, 2020 at 11:00 am

I’ve been inspired to go check out go shop my Target’s Christmas clearance after seeing all the awesome brags in Savears.

Wouldn’t you know it, we get there and it looks like three weeks past Armageddon. Things were scarce. What to do, what to do? We’d come out specifically for Target shopping, but there was nothing worth having. Sigh.

Determined to save my trip, I decided to do a little outside the box. That’s where I found some gems! I started out shopping the reject pile around the scanners. You know, you scan something, it doesn’t come up priced correctly, so it just get laid down right there on the end cap. It was a bust.

However, on the shelves beside the scanner, way up high, I found a Disney Eats Mickey oven mitt. I scanned it on a whim, because there is no way this is on sale. Except it was. 90% off baby! My trip was turning around.

The men’s section was a bust, but hidden in the girls clothing aisle, look what I found!

These bows were $4.99 but were marked down to just $1.49! This would be a great score for Easter baskets, birthdays, next year’s stocking stuffers, Tinkerbell gifts- anything you can think of!

Minnie ears! A pair of Christmas ears hung out with several shiny unicorn ears. Was $9.99, marked down to $6.98. Not a light the world on fire savings, but hey, dollars are dollars!

I also found several tiny backpacks! Two frozen designs up top and then an adorable R2D2 below. These were originally $14.99 but now are marked down to $10.48! Be aware that these aren’t school sized backpacks, they are definitely small “purse” type backpacks or geared more towards the littles than your preteen. They are still so stinking cute. I might have to go back for R2D2, but I’m trying to be good.

Definitely be sure to look around when you shop! Even if it looks like you’re a day late and a dollar short, there are some cute finds out there!

90% off Christmas Clearance at Target

By Kristen

I love 90% off. I just love it. The gifts sparkle just a bit more and the glow from the bright red wrapping paper no one else wanted fills me with joy.

It doesn’t matter how early I get to my store, by 90% it always looks a little picked over. Like, I could be the first person in and it would still look like this.

And that’s okay. I like when the riff riff clears out and gives me a nice, clear view of the best deals.

90% off Christmas clothes!

These sleepers were $.89.

I grabbed both of these plus one other sleeper for a friend who just had a baby and was a little low on warm sleepers in 3 months.

This was $1.79, so I grabbed it for the Glass Slipper for next year.

90% off this animated climbing Santa. This is the kind of thing you grab at 90% and they’re gifts for the neighbors next year. I would never buy myself an animated climbing Santa, but I’d like to think I’d be tickled if someone else gave it to me.

Wrapping paper and gift tags were crazy low. I grabbed some Captain Marvel wrapping paper because it was $.40 and it wasn’t Christmasey, so a great find for year round use!

$.50 for these fancy tie on tags.

You could do the Baby Yoda Cookie hack for only $.10!

A surprising amount of cards were on 90%.

This could be a cute gift for newlyweds or younger bakers.

Cups, plates, and other dinnerware 90% off.

$.30 for 100 lights! We got a million of these with no regrets.

Food stuffs were at 70% off.

I am a sucker for this fancy chocolate, so at $3.29 this was my New Year’s gift to myself.

Grabbed some candy for my youth group.

Holiday makeup and stocking stuffers are some of my favorite things to grab for “during the year” gifts.

Okay, so my picture taking skills here were not great. But this was marked down to $1.99! Originally $19.99. You know I had to do it.

Not technically Christmas clearance, but these Christmas colored storage bins were marked down $6 from $8.99. Stack with a Circle offer for 10% off Sterilite and they came out to $5.46.

My Haul

Okay, I was VERY happy with this haul. Like, overjoyed happy. And my favorite part is that the few things I got at 50% and 70% were no longer available, so I didn’t have that moment of “Ahhhhh I should have waited.”

8 Things to Buy at Bullseye’s Playground in Janaury

By Kristen on December 31, 2019 at 10:47 am

My friend Kristen D posted this amazing hack for road trips, made possible by an item she got for $1 at Target. And I was like, “Why don’t I check out the $1 things from Target more often?”

Because truth be told, unless there’s a clearance situation going on, I’m not spending a lot of time in what was formerly known as the Dollar Shop. But why not? In addition to the $1 items, the rebranded Bullseye’s Playground features $3 and $5 items, in more cohesive collections and themes than the Dollar Spot previously did. These types of items are great for small gifts, to put away for stocking stuffers or Easter gifts that go beyond the traditional toys, or even an inexpensive way to treat yourself!

Bullseye’s Playground changes items frequently, so there are multiple opportunities to find something great. And in my experience, Bullseye’s Playground products can even be different from store to store, so if you frequent multiple Targets, like I do, you double your chance of a terrific deal!

With all these compelling arguments, you know I had to take a break from clearance hunting to check out this month’s best finds from Bullseye’s Playground. Maybe if I’m lucky, I’ll strike gold like Kristen D and find a life hack gem!

Valentine’s Day is one of the big themes in Bullseye’s Playground. Grab this cute Card Kit for $3.

Essential Oils are all the rage! This one is only $3.

Valentine’s themed seed packets! Show your loved one and the Earth how much you care for only $3.

Is this $5 set of mugs perfect for your bestie because it’s the truth or because it quotes the classic film “Mean Girls”? Either way, a great gift!

Foldable card set, perfect for romantic little notes to your Valentine for only $3.

Workouts were the other noticeable theme at Bullseye’s Playground. These would be perfect for beginner exercisers or at home workouts for $5.

This waterproof pouch would be perfect for your valuables at Disney, when you’re riding Splash Mountain and Kali River Rapids. $5.

Want to work out on the go? Need a nice foam roller for those post workout stretches? Want to make your children foam bo staffs? You can do all those things for $5!

Those were my favorite finds from Bullseye in January. While I didn’t see any superb deals of the Kristen D Life changer variety, that’s okay. I’ll check again next month to see what there is to see! Does your store have similar items? Better items? What have you already picked up for January that you love? Tell in me in the comments!

Target Christmas Clearance 70% Off

By Kristen on December 30, 2019 at 6:58 pm

Remember when Christmas clearance was at 50% and the pickings were slim and I was moaning and groaning about how Target was advertising their Christmas clearance as the “Winter Clearance Dash”, so all the people who were usually safe at home the day after the holidays were now all of a sudden taking up all the aisle space while I was trying to take pictures?

WELL. As I dragged my loving family back to Target in hopes of further markdowns, what do you supposed we heard on the radio? A COMMERCIAL for Target’s Winter Clearance Dash. Things have gone too far!

But surprisingly, the crowds just have got their fill of dashing for winter clearance because today was pretty quiet. I had more than enough room to maneuver my cart and take all the pictures.

I love when we get down to bare bones, because that’s when all the fun stuff suddenly pops out. There were so many things I saw today at 70% off that I swear were not displayed when it was only 50% off. Which, of course, means I came across some great finds.

Remember when there were acres and acres of wrapping paper? This is what the Winter Clearance Dash has left us with.

This is “The Night Before Christmas” but with the cutest bears included! $2.99.

Wondershop stocking stuffers games in can. $1.49.

Emergency Makeup Kit for $2.40!

Lovely holiday decor.

There was still a great selection of stockings for 70% off.

Star of wonder, star of light, star of 70% off! As low as $7.50.

Pajamas, sweaters, dresses, you could have a whole Christmas wardrobe for 70% off.

Disney Princess Christmas Crackers with SOCKS inside! $3.60 and worth every penny.

Food is up to 50% off.

The stocking stuffers were a little lite, but there were still some cute options left.

I still need someone to tell me why this Elf gets a monocle.

Baking and entertaining accessories. Lots of dishes at my store. I thought about grabbing a few of these and using them as part of the gift when I give the neighbors baked goods.

Baubles all around!

I was pleasantly surprised at how many ornaments were left.

The last tags in the store! And they’re miiiiiiine!

Wreaths and bags still available. I love this Santa one. It’s so pretty, I would frame it and keep it as decor! Also kind of regretting not grabbing that pinecone wreath!

So, I want to swing by the toy section to see if any more toys were added at 30% off. I was rewarded with these Unikitties being 50% off. But before I could stealthily put them in my cart, two adorable children who happen to share my last name were like, “are those for US? Oh thank you, Mama, you’re the best Mama ever, we love you, Mama.”

But that’s okay, because while they were cuddling their Unikitties and telling me how great I am, I was able to sneak this 30% off Lego kit into the cart!

My Haul

Disney Princess Crackers-$3.60. Originally $12.
Cat & Jack Christmas Dress-$5.39. Originally $17.99.

Prime Rib 50% Off + FREE $10 Gift Card at Target!

By Kristen on December 30, 2019 at 2:44 pm

While scoping out the Christmas clearance, I couldn’t help but notice that Target released a new Circle offer for 50% off Prime Rib.

I skedaddled over to the grocery section, to see that there is also an awesome grocery deal going on right now: Get a free $10 Target Giftcard when you spend $50 on food and beverages.

One thing to note is with the new way Target accommodates these free giftcards the Circle offer does adjust. Target math can be confusing math, but we can break it down.

Use the 50% off Prime Rib Circle offer on your phone or online to take 50% off.

Final Cost is $20.05, or $3.19 a pound!
