Target always has a great selection of affordable Easter items, but the real party starts after the holiday — and right now, the party is in full swing. Target clearance has hit up to 90% off, and if you've been waiting for the deepest discounts, this is your signal to head to the store. We're talking Easter candy, decor, baskets, crafts, and more at rock-bottom prices. But don't wait — 90% off typically only lasts a day or two before Target starts donating leftover inventory or sending it to salvage stores.
The Target clearance schedule always follows a predictable pattern: markdowns start at 50% off the day after Easter, climb to 70% a few days later, and peak at 90% about a week out. That peak is right now. You can usually find deeply discounted items you can repurpose all year long, or stash away for next Easter. And you don't even need to know how to coupon at Target to score these deals. Here's everything you need to know to make the most of the best Target deals of the season.

Target Easter clearance is an annual sale with 50% - 90% off Easter candy and decor.
Just like Target’s Christmas clearance, their Easter clearance starts the day after the holiday with 50% off egg-dyeing kits, decor, and cards. The discounts increase to 70% a few days later, and then, about a week after Easter, the discounts hit 90% off. Although most of this sale is only available in stores, Target has some online Easter clearance as well.
Target's Easter clearance sale started on Monday, April 6.
Target didn't officially announce the date for their Easter clearance ahead of time, but they always follow a predictable schedule. We spotted the first in-store discounts (50% off) on Monday, April 6, 2026, and we saw 90% off on Sunday, April 12, at most stores. That’s because Easter was on Sunday, April 5, 2026, and like all Target clearance sales, this one typically begins the day after the holiday.
Tips for Shopping Target Easter Clearance
Target Easter clearance starts the Monday after Easter and lasts about a week.
Each Target store gives all remaining Easter inventory a final 90% markdown about one week after the holiday. Those items are usually only 90% off for a day (or two) at max, so time's limited. Plus the longer you wait, the more items get picked over. In past years, we've seen stores hit 90% off in as few as five days after Easter.
After about 10 days, Target will donate Easter clearance items or send them to Target salvage stores . Those are the only places you’ll find regular and holiday Target clearance for up to 90% off.
Keep in mind that clearance timing may vary from store to store. For example, Florida Target locations may see 70% off before stores in Georgia. Also, one store in Florida may see clearance markdowns sooner than another in-state location.
KCL TIP: Ask an associate at your local Target if they know when each round of markdowns will happen.
Always scan Easter clearance items at Target to check for secret clearance prices.
Since post-holiday markdowns happen fast, you can't always trust the signs. It’s possible your items cost less than you think. You can check the current prices on the Target app or at a price scanner in the store.
We always scan anything that’s spring- or Easter-themed, hoping to find a secret clearance price. Plus you may stumble upon a hidden Target Circle deal for your item when you scan it. Most Circle deals exclude clearance, but occasionally Target will drop clearance-specific offers.
KCL TIP: Don’t forget to use your Target Circle Card to get an extra 5% off everything.
Check the Target Dollar Spot for random discounts on Easter and spring items.
Once you’ve covered the Easter clearance section at Target, stop by the Target Dollar Spot at the front of the store for more spring and Easter savings.
Since these items are typically themed more for spring than Easter, you can use them after the holiday and beyond.
Best Things to Buy During Target Easter Clearance
Stock up on Target Easter clearance toys for 50% - 70% off and use them as party favors or gifts later on.
You won’t want to wait for the 90% markdown on Easter clearance toys — your best bet is to buy them at 50% or 70% off. Why? Because they sell like hotcakes.
Scoop up great party favors like gel pens, lip balms, nail polishes, notepads, pencils, sidewalk chalk, and more fun stuff in Target’s Easter clearance section at 50% off.
Keep your eyes peeled for toys that aren’t Easter-themed since those are the best to use as gifts year-round. Even a bunny-shaped zip pouch or stuffed animal doesn’t necessarily scream “Easter” for someone who likes bunnies. And when you can get them for as low as $0.50, who cares anyway?
Buy Easter chocolate and candy when they reach 70% off at Target — then save them for next year.
Easter candy never goes up to 90% off at Target like other Easter items do, so buy candy when it hits 70% off about a week after the holiday and save it for Easter next year.
We’ve seen Hershey’s Chocolate Bunnies marked down to $0.39 one week after Easter, plus Russell Stover Bunnies for just $0.66 apiece.
KCL TIP: Chocolate can last for a year, and non-chocolate candy can last longer. You can even freeze your chocolate Easter bunnies to get more mileage out of them, or chop them up and use them as shaved toppings for baked goods or fudge sundaes.
Buy Target Easter egg-dyeing kits and grass for 90% off and save them for next year.
Wait for Target dye kits to reach 90% off about a week after Easter — the shelves are always full of these items, no matter how many other Easter clearance goodies are still available.
You’ll score bags of Easter grass for $0.05 (regularly $0.50) and egg-dyeing kits for $0.30 (regularly $3).
Buy Easter baby clothes at Target when they’re 90% off.
Target marks down Easter baby clothing along with the other Easter clearance items, so it’s a great way to stock up on onesies and baby stuff that you can use year-round.
Baby clothes tend to stick around longer than some of the other Easter clearance items too. We've seen Target baby onesies for as low as $2.99 (regularly $9.99) and girls’ bucket hats for $0.30 (regularly $3) in the week after Easter.
Grab clearance baking supplies that you can use all year for 50% off.
Target regularly marks down Easter bakeware and utensils in their Easter clearance, and most of these items are good to use any time of year. Look for baking and cooking supplies right away when clearance hits 50% off the day after the holiday — these items don't usually stick around for long.
We’ve seen cupcake pans and Dash mini waffle makers go on sale for $4.99 (regularly $9.99), plus a Dash Everyday Egg Cooker for just $8.49 (regularly $16.99). Sometimes these items will be seasonal (like Easter bunny cookie cutters), but that doesn’t mean you can’t make bunny-shaped cookies any other time of year.
Save at least 70% on clearance Easter baskets and repurpose them.
Leftover Easter baskets are a great organization solution for kids’ rooms and play spaces, especially when you can get them for 70% - 90% off. We’ve seen Target Easter baskets that were regularly $5 sell for just $0.50 in the Easter clearance.
Plus, most Easter baskets at Target aren’t totally seasonal. Usually the only thing that makes them Easter baskets (and not just baskets) is a piece of fabric you can easily remove.
Don’t need the extra organization? Buy clearance Easter baskets and repurpose them for gifts later on in the year.
Buy Target Easter decor and tableware when they hit 90% off.
You’re usually safe waiting a few days for these items, mostly because people aren’t thinking about Easter decor right after the holiday. You’ll find plenty of figurines, plates, wooden signs, throw pillows, and more on the shelves when Easter clearance hits 70% off and even 90% off.
We’ve seen Easter dinner plates for $0.30, decorative Easter signs for $0.50, and Easter throw pillows for just $3 when Target Easter clearance is in full swing.
