One of the best times to stock up of items for the next year is to buy them on clearance.  My favorite deals happen when they are 90% or more clearance.   The good news is you don’t even have to use a coupon to get a great deal.

Here are my recent garden treasures from Dollar General at 90% off:

• 2 – Topsy Turvy’s
• 2 – Cultivators
• 2 – Transplant Shovels
• 2 – 2 pound bags of Organic Fertilizer
• 4 –  packages of Jobes Plant Fertilizer Spikes (200 Spikes)
• 2 – Bonide Mosquito Repellent
• 1 – Fongonil Plant Spray
• 1 – Luster Leaf Water Level (measures the moisture of the dirt & lets you know when it needs water)

The total amount before savings was $59.89 and I paid $5.99 out of pocket (including tax) giving me a savings of $53.90 (over 90% in savings).  The best part is all the money was saved without using coupons and I will be able to use them in my home and garden.  Check out the local stores in your area for clearance gardening items if you plan to do one next season.  Now is a good time to get some garden supplies!
