Is It Right To Clean Out Clearance?

There is really no right or wrong answer. I just would love to know what you think.

This is the photo from my local Walmart that had CRAZY clearance on baby items – we are talking $50 Graco car seats and diapers galore.

This photo is after I took what I wanted – so much of me wanted to snag ALL the wipes – especially the pamper wipes which were 75% off retail since they are the exact wipes we use daily with our twin 8 month olds. I know they would get used up and it would be money I would be spend anyways BUT I felt that was “wrong”. I told Eric what I did when I got home and he thought I should have taken them all since we will need them and my choice is costing us money in the end.

Now I am sitting here feeling bad that I messed up this AWESOME clearance sale 🙁

Hopefully all of that made sense 🙂

    IMHO if you take the entire stock of an item on clearance for your own use…good for you. If you take the entire stock so that you can resell it or make a profit in any way off of it, that is just greed. You were generous and decided to leave some for the next person, always thoughtful. Love your spirit!

    Oh my word. ..totally worth it…especially when you have little ones…plus you can use wipes for other stuff after they are done with it. ..trust me i know…

    I would have taken the whole lot….especially with twins! 🙂 I see it this way…take what you’d actually and truly would use. I mean you are paying for them. The cheapest wipes I have bought were in a gigantic case like Costco size. I found that to be the cheapest way to have disposable wipes besides couponing.

    I take what I am going to use. I have no shame in snagging A GOOD DEAL. Its on clearance its fair game. When pregnant with my youngest and avidly couponing, I bought 156 pkgs of wipes because I was able to get them for .26 a package. I did not buy at once, but bought the max allowed, handed my hubby a stack of coupons and he bought max allowed, next day went back in for another batch 3x {was alone so I had to make three trips} etc. I would have cleaned the section out. BUY AHEAD.
