Have you ever tried to wait for a gorgeous pair of shoes to go on sale, but they sell out, or get shipped out, before you get the right price?  Or have you tried to buy an item with your coupons, but the item was excluded from the discount. Well, chances are that you can still find these hard-to-find items, but at a much reduced price online.

Most stores have a clearance section on their websites. Here, stores sell the last of certain item for a reduced price.  Sometimes, items from internet and traditional retail stores are sent to discount retailers, such as Ross and TJ Maxx. Shopping in these stores does not guarantee that you’ll find every item that you’ve been searching for, but it is a way to save some big bucks on items that you may have missed in department stores.

One of the best online clearance sections is Nine West’s “Last Dibs”. This section of Nine West’s allows you to search the site specifically for last dibs. Check the section periodically and search for a variety of items including, purses and jewelry.  You can even perform a “My Size Only” search. You enter your shoe size into the search box and the site will show you items they have in your particular size. The best thing about this search function is that the shoes are in your size and they are all on sale…no coupon needed.

Another good website for clearance items is the BodyShop.com.  When items go to the Body Shop’s “Last Chance” section, high-quality items are offered at huge savings. These items often have been discontinued and the Body Shop wants to sell them quickly, hence the big savings.

If you are seeking items for the home, try the clearance section at PierOne.com.  With an awesome selection of several items with more than 50% off, you will feel as though you have hit the home shopping jackpot.  By signing up for the customer rewards program, you will be notified of special sales and emailed extra coupons which allow you to potentially double your savings.
