Clearance sale!

I love the clearance shelf at my Safeway. I check it every time I go in there. That way when new items are on the shelf, I get my pick! At my store everything on the clearance shelf is 50% off the marked price. That's not automatically a great price, but it's always worth checking. Sometimes the items ring up CHEAPER than they are marked because the items are on sale in the general merchandise area.
