📖 The Hustle
The day after every holiday, stores slash seasonal decor 70-90% off. Buy Halloween decorations on November 1st, Christmas decor on December 26th, and Easter items the day after Easter. Store them in plastic bins and list them on eBay in September for Halloween, November for Christmas. A $50 animatronic Halloween decoration bought for $5 sells for $40-60 when demand returns the following year.
🚀 First Step
Go to a Target or Walmart today and check if any post-holiday seasonal clearance is still available, scanning items with the Amazon Seller app.
🔑 Keys to Success
- Buy seasonal decor at 90% off within 3 days of the holiday ending for the deepest discounts
- Store seasonal inventory in labeled plastic bins stacked in a garage or closet
- List items 6-8 weeks before the holiday when buyers start searching for decor
