Columbia sales, discounts and consignment dates: January 20-26

During the quiet days of late January, it’s the perfect time to reassess your wardrobe, decide what might need replacing, and begin looking at bright new mix and match combos for spring.

Many are shopping for Valentine’s Day, and romantic negligees and babydolls are showing up in every store from Lane Bryant to Walmart. If anyone is planning to propose on Valentine’s Day, there are incredible jewelry sales in progress this week. Check out bridal sets at Kmart and Sears for especially good deals.

Clearance sales are in their final week or two, and prices are at their seasonal lowest. This is the time to update with a few new pieces, add some bright new looks, stock up on essentials, and even shop for next fall and winter. In most stores there are final savings of 75-80% off, and sometimes even more.

Each day of the week offers discounts to a specific group in Columbia, and many plan their shopping around these savings.
