What do you purchase at the after-Christmas sale that you use for the following Christmas? I'm just curious. Thank you in advance.

I tend to stock up on wrapping paper, the really expesive stuff as it is usally reduced to $1 or less, bows and gift cards and christmas cards as well! I also look out for the decorations for lights, tree ornaments, table wear, paperplates etc...I find this saves me heaps of money each year, I paid 6.50 for 14 rolls of christmas paper last year and I have 7 left for next year, I am still going to go and buy more this year though as you never know how much you will need for next year!
But yeah nice christmas cards, gift tags, christmas bows, ornaments and lighting is reduced by so much after christmas it is fun going shopping!

I always stock up on Christmas paper-bows-ribbons-tags-decorations- and last year I got an awesome 8 ft fiber optic Christmas tree for only $39 Normal price was $278 so BIG bargain! But always on xmas paper and things like that. Gift bags and such. Sometimes I feel like we should all celebrate Christmas on Dec. 26th cuz we could get ALOT more for our money!

Everything you can afford that is on a really HOT SALE! Especially decorations, wrapping paper, etc. I once got gifts right after Xmas like a $100 manger set for $30 for people who I knew I wouldn't see until afterwards! Have fun!!!!!!!!!

Wrapping supplies: paper, ribbon, bows, tags. Also, because I do a baking exchange with family members, I often look for nice containers for the baked goodies and/or a small gift or decoration to accompany them. I also keep an eye open for nice teacher gifts, so I can give them more for the money. Happy holidays!

WHEN I AM ABLE TO HIT THE AFTER CHRISTMAS SALES, THE FIRST PLACE I HEAD OFF TO IS YANKEE CANDLE STORE. I JUST LOVE THE TART WARMERS AND THINK THAT THEY MAKE JUST AWESOME GIFTS FOR SOMEONE YOU ARE NOT SURE WHAT TO BUY.
LAST YEAR, I GOT A COUPLE OF TART WARMERS (AT 50% OFF) AND A GIFT BASKET OF CANDLES (ALSO AT 50% OFF). THE TART WARMERS MADE GREAT GIFTS FOR BOTH MY SISTER AND SISTER IN LAW. THE GIFT BASKET, I BROKE UP INTO 3 DIFFERENT GIFTS AND I GET TO KEEP THE BASKET.
GIFTS OF CANDLES ARE NEVER OUT OF FASHION EITHER AND AT 50% OFF, HOW CAN YOU LOOSE????
WHILE YOU ARE THERE, DON'T FORGET THE BAYBERRY CANDLES. LEGEND HAS IT THAT IF YOU BURN A BAYBERRY CANDLE FROM TIP TO SOCKET ON CHRISTMAS EVE AND OR NEW YEARS EVE, IT WILL BRING GOOD LUCK TO THE HOME.

I always get wrapping paper.. It is better to pay half price then full price.. It only get ripped up anyways.... Bath sets are always good, You have them on hand for birthdays and just to give someone a smile. It depends on where you go. Most all places have a % off. The mall is a good place to go. To get all the perfume sets half off... Those are the things that I go for and I do it EVERY Year....... Happy Holidays
