Sears takes up to 70% off a selection of Craftsman tools, storage, and related items as part of its ongoing tool blowout. Plus, take an extra 10% off all items with no minimum required.

Sales tax is added where applicable. Some best bets, with prices after discount:

You probably already know that you can get great discount shopping deals on things like computers, women's clothing and toys. However, there are literally thousands of amazing bargains to be had out there, and all it takes is a little brainstorming to get deals on everything from unique gifts to appliances.
Health and beauty tends to be a great option when it comes to discount shopping. Stock up on items like shampoo, makeup and soap for far less than you'll pay at any store. Places to look include online liquidation stores, bargain shops and clearance sales. Avoid things like perishables, unless you plan on using them up quickly. It can be tempting to buy a crate of coffee or discounted gourmet crackers, but unless you've got a plan or can give most away as gifts, they will likely gather dust in your basement.
Buying gifts throughout the year, rather than at holidays, is an ideal way to trim your budget and to be prepared. By buying discount gifts when you come across them, you can save a great deal – stores markup prices at Christmas and other important holidays. Look for deals, and designate a space in your closet for gift storage.
Don't forget to factor in shipping. If you happen upon a website halfway across the world offering cheap shoes, remember that you'll likely pay steep shipping and handling costs, more than the savings are worth. Look for sites that offer free or extremely cheap shipping – many of them do.
