We have a store here that is similar, but slightly more expensive.. $14 the first day of stock, dropping to 12, 10, 8, 5 , 2 and 0.25 cents the last day

Wife refers to it as the "treasure store".. she has found several 3d printed terrain items for me there.. plus lots of stuff for our kids in their new homes..


Dang, 25 cents is quite a deal! Out of curiosity, what day does she usually go?

I've been going on the penultimate $2 day and sometimes on the final (one dollar) day. On the last day, you've really got to get there right as it opens.


Wife goes on whatever day she has off.. She says that the $14 day has a line waiting for them to open, as does the last day.. but in the "middle" she can just walk in and browse the tables/bins..


I've never been to one of these stores on the first day but at some point I would like to. I've gone on the middle days, but it feels like I just pay a bit more than I want. I think my strategy is going to be to go on the second to last day and scoop up the 2 dollar deals, and then possibly sweep back early on the last if I see something cheap that I want to pick up in bulk.
