Check with your local store for the policy in your area. You can buy up to 10 units of an item that is on sale for BOGO, so it’s a great time to stock up and save.

Shop The Clearance Rack Most stores have a clearance rack placed somewhere in the store. Items with an orange tag are offered at a clearance price.
