Amazing finds, Denise! I didn't get a lot of toy items this year but glad you did. Love the Golden Books. Great finds with the stuffies - the lion king is my favorite. I use those IKEA totes for years! I use them for stuffies as well, and clothing for OCC. Great organizing storage. And you are right, they are cheap. The earrings are awesome. Wow, I think the bead kit was the best find. The Navity set is beautiful. Lol, I also bought socks for my sisters and mom for next year's Christmas. The check board sets are a wow! Another favorite is the Uno cards. Great Christmas clearance haul, Denise! You killed it with the finds. Love the filler you created out of it too. Fun!
I stuff clothes in those ikea bags too! They last a good long time also! Oh I also got socks for the family for next years Christmas stocking stuffers! I use these sales to think ahead😂😂😂
Great job shopping. I Couldn't find any thing for 90 percent off. However i found some really good things at 50 and 70 percent off for my boxes. I have never done filler before but i plan on sending filler this year . I found some things for filler - not a lot but some.
90% off is really a hunt. You have to know what to look for and I’ll admit not always easy. But I bought a few things at 70% off too! Sometimes I know those items won’t be there at 90% so it’s worth it to pick them up. 🥰 And it’s great to hear you’ll send some filler! Every bit helps!
I would love to see how you store things until you are going to pack shows boxes. Thank you for showing how you store the stuffed animals. I can’t get out very much in stores, but am able to find so many good deals online. The boxes are piling up. Always enjoy your inspiring videos.
Oh my goodness what a shopping haul I’m so jealous. Loved seeing all you bought and of course I always get ideas although we don’t get bargains like you do I’m happy and thankful for what I do get and my daughter who has access to more shops than I do brings me items for boxes. I enjoyed doing filler packs last year most of which were inspired by seeing yours. Have been prayerfully thinking of New Orleans, it’s dreadful. Many Blessings for the New Year and God Bless You and all you do.🏴🎄⭐️☃️
Thank you Margaret and thank you for thinking of New Orleans. It upsets me so that people just going about their beautiful life have this happen to them. So happy to hear you are enjoying filler packs! I do also! I’ll be doing even more this year I think! Thank you again sweet Margaret.
Hi Denise, Thank-you sharing this awesome haul. Like you, I have waited for the 90% off sales and have not been disappointed. My biggest haul was a collection of items that ranged from 10 to 50 cents each. As for plush, my larger pink reindeer sized plush were $2 each; My Miss Pink Reindeer (G2-4) with a sequined t-shirt is now waiting her shoebox. Her other items include those from Christmas hauls 2-3 years ago!
Sounds like you scored! Great job Fiona! .10-.50 are exciting finds! I love finding those quality items at the lowest price! More for the children as our money stretches! ❤️
Great haul. You got so many items that would be great in a shoebox. I didnt go to target till Tuesday morning which was that last day before they put to selvage. I found afew treasures as I remembered you said look in the carts that need to be put back. That’s where I found most of my stuff😂 Between target and Walmart I’m shopped out. Thanks for showing your hauls. I think it’s exciting to see the deals.
So awesome that you found stuff in the carts! You should have seen me digging!😂People probably thought I was crazy! I’m shopped out too but I’m heading back out in the morning! I heard Walmart and Hobby Lobby may be 90%!
Thanks Denise! I'm headed to Target tomorrow to see if there is anything left. I especially like the musical lions! Just a tiny observation: the little flap with a hole in it for hanging on a store display can be removed from the items. It will reduce packaging waste for the children. Can't wait for your next video!
Thanks for sharing! I'm driving to San Antonio, Texas to see if I can find some of those T-Shirts, Love them! Wish me luck ladies. It is a lot of work to shop, and look for deals. Just got back from Big Lots shutting down in my town. Got 20% off shirts. "Happy 2025!
Great job at Big Lots! There should be some great deals coming up there with the store closings! You are right! It is hard work to clearance shop! I’m exhausted!😅
I love watching your videos. I look for bargains all year and sort and store them in my basement with all the boxes. My 7yr.old granddaughter and I have already packed 21 boxes for next year. God bless you and your family this new year. Maybe Jesus will come this year!!!!
The Pillowfort checkers, Uno cards and mini games were a fantastic find! I looked and looked and looked for the Uno cards, but to no avail 😟. Phooey, no Native deodorants, etch a sketch or mini games, either. If I go back today I will look for the Pillowfort soft checkers game. Denise, thanks for all your help by sharing your great finds!
Thanks Trish! I only found the checker games at one store and it was my first one! Pretty cool item. You did find some great stuff on your trip! I love those snowball stuffies for .50! They make me smile! TFW!
fantastic!!! Those Stuffies!!! I just wanted to reach through the screen to hug them all! Target is the store that intimidates me. I'm still trying to figure out their method for putting things back on the floor after clearance. We also dont live very near Target but I after I saw the quality of those stuffed animals ---wow, I need to go to Target! Thanks for the post Denise!!!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!💕
Wow great deals! Gives us items to keep an eye out for! I went to Ollie's today and their toys are 33% off. There were still some great finds. ❤ Thanks for sharing 🙏
Denise!!! You hit the jackpot today!! I am so jealous!!! Keeping myself busy starting FILLER packs for 2025!! Thanx for the great ideas!! I love everything that you picked up today plus the great Stuffies!! 😊
I love living vicariously through your hauls and shop with me videos 😅 Where I am in Canada, our walmarts Christmas items are only 50% off, and most of what's left is just cards, mugs and glass ornaments.
Oh mannnnn…. That stinks but I have heard this! Wish I could spread the wealth up there to you! TFW and enjoying my haul! I have another one coming up!🤦🏻♀️
You did amazing! 😍🎉 Thank you for sharing, I'm definitely going to keep this in mind for next year! Our Target is 45 minutes away so I don't usually check them out, but this has shown me that I need to. 😅 Lots of abundant shoebox blessings! 💝
90% off at Target are my favorite clearance events! It might be worth the trip for you. But you do have to know what to look for. That’s why I shared my 70% off trip to help people. They have such nice quality items. TFW Kelly!
You were lucky with the polar bears. They wouldnt let me have them on clearance. But I did get a very nice christmas Barbie for 1. 69. So I definitely picked her up. But it was really picked over at the target I went to. So you had a lot of great grabs!!
Oh bummer. Yeah sometimes it depends on who you get. Win some lose some. I’ve had many a time when they said no. Still can’t hurt to ask. You got very lucky with the Barbie! I was looking for her! I went back briefly this morning to Target before I went to Hobby Lobby and it was still scanning 90%!!😮
Great haul! I only found a few things yesterday, but was happy with those. Do you know if the 90 percent off sale is still going on? (I was stuck home today with a migraine-red dye #40-who knew?)
I heard they were salvaging everything today so items scanned .00 and technically they don’t have to sell them to you if you find them. 90% off doesn’t usually last but a day or two so you have to go right away. So awesome you found some things!!!
Love the Nativity & the bead kit! I got some of those .50c socks from the bullseye area. How cool is that fabric tote checker game? I'm learning more about where to look and what for, though I'm pretty sure my store was pretty wiped out already at 50-70% off. I did get a few of those lock block tubes that were .50c, mine were unicorns but they also had butterflies. Probably should've gotten more. I found one mini deodorant but I think it was .95c. I'm on a quest for coloring books tomorrow, we'll see if there's anything left out there! I was bummed that something went wrong at the Target register and they couldn't give me a receipt. I'd like to keep track.
Wow… they couldn’t give you a receipt? That’s terrible. It sounds like you are really doing some great shopping! There is a definite learning curve for Target clearance shopping😂 I’m trying to teach and help when I can. 🥰
@@drogers You are helpful! I shop clearance in grocery but my bargain hunting is mostly 2nd hand. That could work too for shoe boxes. Sometimes 2nd hand is unused but clearance prices are better than thrift stores, especially at 90% off!
I heard some stores started to salvage today and some items went back to FP. 90% doesn’t last long, however next time maybe ask the cashier or customer service. Can’t hurt.
Hi Denise, I'm new to your channel. I have already watched a lot of your videos. My mom (who is 81 now)and I have been packing shoeboxes for over 18 years. We love it and collect things all year. Even though we have done it a long time, I have still learned so much from you already and some great ideas! Thank you for sharing!!! We have been packing around 100 for about the last 8 years. The funny thing is, I have never heard about supplying filler until this year! Also, we have never sent books or games because of the language barriers, so it is enlightening to see that you do! The sewing kits, fishing kits, menstrual kits and clothes are new to us as well. Our boxes are always filled to the brim, but this gives us lots more ideas! Sharpening the pencils was new as well. I saw in one of your videos that you taped the end of the batteries, may I ask why? We have never done that and always send 3 sets of extra batteries with flashlights. I sure hope they weren't removed.... Anyway, thanks again for all you have shared and all you do. I'm so happy I found your channel!! May God bless and multiply provision for you and everyone packing this year!!!! ❤😊 🙏
@@KelliWilliams-d9tThanks for watching Kelli! I’m so glad you found me! Your packing sounds amazing! Bless you! Yes, if you include batteries, they must be in the original packaging or taped on both ends as to not cause a charge/spark to occur. This is listed on the operation Christmas child website. Hope that helps!
I am heading to target today for a baby gift so i will go on a christmas scavenger hunt. I would never think to search out all the departments for these deals. The only thing I wonder about is the wicked dress. Please no nasty responses. This is my opinion based on what I understand from scripture. The dress has the satanic star on it, and there has been controversy over this movie. Maybe you were not aware, and you obvuiously have the freedom to do what you want with this information. Anyway, i love OCC ministry and ypu found amazing things!
You did great!! I hope some child who doesn't get much for c-mas, gets these gifts. There so thoughful.

Thanks Darlene! I may do a storage video this year. My system is not the best but improving steadily.😂Thank you for watching friend! 😊
Love your videos Denise! I’m in the UK and I still watch all your hauls as they’re so inspiring and give me great ideas xx
Yay! Thank you for watching! The 90% off deals are the best! 😊
You did great finding so many items! Nice filler demonstration.
Thank you Maritza! It was a fun clearance event!
Oh my goodness what a shopping haul I’m so jealous.

SUPER haul bc both of my Targets were empty. I envy your box of princesses. Some GREAT box add-ins. :)
Well booooo. Yeah, those princesses were a great find! I just picked up the entire box! 😂
Thanks Denise! I'm headed to Target tomorrow to see if there is anything left. I especially like the musical lions!

Can't wait for your next video!
Good luck Lisa! Can you tell me which item you are referring to with a flap? I usually do remove most packaging when packing with a few exceptions. 😊
Thanks for sharing! I'm driving to San Antonio, Texas to see if I can find some of those T-Shirts, Love them! Wish me luck ladies. It is a lot of work to shop, and look for deals. Just got back from Big Lots shutting down in my town. Got 20% off shirts. "Happy 2025!

Target can be tricky but once you get it, you’ll want to hit every clearance event! Thanks Trina!
Great video. Very helpful! Thank you so much, Denise! ❤❤❤ Happy New Year! 🎉
You are welcome Vicki! Happy New Year to you too!
Wow great deals! Gives us items to keep an eye out for! I went to Ollie's today and their toys are 33% off. There were still some great finds. ❤ Thanks for sharing 🙏
Oohhhh … I need to get back to Ollies! I love their book selection!
Denise!!! You hit the jackpot today!! I am so jealous!!! Keeping myself busy starting FILLER packs for 2025!! Thanx for the great ideas!! I love everything that you picked up today plus the great Stuffies!! 😊
Aren’t those stuffies adorable? I just love them! I’ve been so busy shopping I haven’t had much time to pack anything! I have been sewing though! 🥰
I love living vicariously through your hauls and shop with me videos 😅 Where I am in Canada, our walmarts Christmas items are only 50% off, and most of what's left is just cards, mugs and glass ornaments.

The deer shirt and deer stuffie looks like the start of a great deer themed box! 😉
Ohhhh yessss… I think like that too!😂
Awesome!!

Thanks for sharing!!!
You’re welcome Sue!
Awesome job! Thank you for sharing ❤️
You are welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, you really scored. I hit Target Monday but now I think I need to go try another one and see what might be hiding.
I just popped in one quickly this morning and it was still at 90% so you might get lucky! 🙏🏻
such great finds...I'm going to Target on Friday and hoping to find a few things left.
I’ve heard they are packing Christmas up😭and salvaging merchandise already.
You were lucky with the polar bears. They wouldnt let me have them on clearance. But I did get a very nice christmas Barbie for 1. 69. So I definitely picked her up. But it was really picked over at the target I went to. So you had a lot of great grabs!!

We don’t have a Target within an Hour.
Oh I’m sorry. That’s like Hobby Lobby for me! It’s 50 min away!
