Has anyone ever gone to the tent sale on the last day or two? I know that they mark everything down, but how much? Is it a percentage? Is there anything left by that time? I already went last night and did my real shopping and I plan to go back, but I'm wondering when I should plan my next trip (in a week or at the end?). Thanks so much!

I have never heard of this?? Is this specific to your area? When you talk bargins, you have to share!

I can't help you because I'm not lucky enough to live in the area, but here is a friendly bump...

Once a year at the Wilton headquarters they have a HUGE sale. They have tons of cake and candy items, but they also have picture frames, cookware, wedding items, and other household goods. I would say that most items are 50% off or better. Check out Wilton's website if you want to see more.

I've been to the tent sale during the last days. All that's left is the crap they couldn't unload for 50% during the previous 2 weeks. Lots of little stuff - like candles and seasonal plastic decorations.

i agree with DianeLM. The last 2 - 3 days are not usually very good. Because I live less than 10 miles from their location, I do try to drop in during the last 2 - 3 days to find some last minute bargains, but I do my serious bargain shopping there during the the first week.

Thanks everyone. I have already done my serious shopping and I'll be going back later this week for a few more things. It's good to know that there really isn't much left at the end.

I have been there during the last few days and have found great items! Every year I go at the beginning, the middle, and the end of the sale!
I always get great items at great prices!!!

It is always good to keep checking back to see what great thing they may have reduced! Last year on the last day I got the petal pan set for $10.00!!!!

I've been there on the last days the past 3 years and what you find can vary from not-so-good to the AWESOME find. Usually on the very last day, they will mark everything left an additional 33% off. If you're not far, it's worth checking out. I do the same as qtkaylasweets and go every few days. I have to wait until Saturday to go this year though...IT'S ABSOLUTELY KILLING ME!!!!!!!
