Do yourself a favor and put that pocketbook away for a few weeks.
The sales begin pretty quickly, but the only way you'll ever see the
legendary 70% off sales is if you excercise some self control and
ignore the run-of-the-mill 20% sales (and more).
Target will be happy to sell you the same sets at 70% off, but they
can't do it if you buy them up during the gradual drops in price
throughout January.
Same goes for Wal-Mart as well. In fact, in my experience, WM is
worse. I've seen one WM refuse to drop the same item 3 other stores
in town kept discounting, and I suspect it had something to do with
some over zealous person jumping the gun and buying at 25% off.
