My favorite part of decorating is reminiscing as we pull out the decorations for years past. My kids love hearing the stories about the items from when I was little.

Club Stores–

Stores like Costco and Sams have a few decorations during the holiday season as well.

Catalogs may seem kind of dated for some people but, they offer some pretty amazing prices for a lot of their Holiday decor. One of my favorites is Lakeside Collections. Yes, you have to wait a while for your items to show up but, the discounted prices you can find are worth it. If you don’t get a physical copy of a catalog many can be found online too.

Drug Stores–

Drug stores like Walgreens and CVS typically have a small selection of Holiday decor too.

Resale Pages–

Local resale pages on Facebook will typically have a lot of Holiday decor as well. The prices here are hit or miss. Most of the time people want to get rid of it but, there are people who are asking way too much for their items.

Estate Sales–

Estate sales are easily overlooked. However, they can be a great place to find Holiday decor for your home at a low price. Some sales do have higher prices but, many are very reasonable.

Garage sale season is coming to an end here in the Midwest but, they can be a great way to pick up Holiday decor for great prices.

Make Your Own–

Making your own decorations can save a lot of money. You can make larger indoor and outdoor items or, you can have your kids make smaller decorations.

The Road–

When people don’t know what to do with an item it is commonly set out on the curb waiting for the next trash pick up day. Sometimes things need a little bit of fixing up and other times, the items are in great working order. If you see something you are interested in pull over and check it out.

Consignment Shops–

Consignment shops can be a great place to find Holiday decor as well. Finding Holiday decor at a consignment shop is hit or miss as their inventory depends on what others bring in. If there is Holiday decor there the prices are reasonable.

Other Tips

Use Coupons

Just like other items you regularly shop for, coupons can be a big help when it comes to shopping for new Holiday decor. You can find coupons in fliers, online (either to print or mobile) or by contacting retailers.

Sales

After the Holiday season has passed, stores offer discounted items. This is the time to pick up those larger items you may not find elsewhere.

Negotiate

Don’t be afraid to ask for a lower price. This can apply to anything from resale groups to actual stores. If you find an item on a resale page, you can offer a price that you feel is fair. At stores, if you find a box or package that is damaged you can ask for a discount on the item.

Your house can look fantastic this Holiday season without having to spend an arm and a leg. There are many ways you can get around the higher price tags. I hope some of these tips help you save a lot of money on your Holiday decor.
