After Christmas sales are on now
I visited the arts and crafts store Michaels Sunday and was surprised to see so much of the holiday-related merchandise had disappeared. The reason: Discounts of as much as 70 percent. Several other stores already have marked down much of their holiday merchandise by at least 50 percent, which makes it less likely there will be much left at all after Christmas.
