As Halloween is my favorite holiday, I went searching today for the same thing I always search for as the fall holiday season approaches, decorations. I've wanted some figurines for display for some times now, some 3 to 4 years. You know, those little haunted housed with lights and animated skeletons and such.Instead of analyzing an ad for AC Moore, I'd like to write about the absence of one. AC Moore may post ads in the Sunday paper, but I can't say how long it's been since I've seen a TV spot. Fortunately I was passing by on my way home from another town 45 minutes away when I decided to stop in (with the suggestion of my wonderful girlfriend). To my surprise I found exactly what I was looking for and they had figurines left over from 2008. I was delighted and overjoyed as I found out the prices were up to 75% off the original prices or more. It's a shame that AC Moore has not pushed such great deals in their ads, however, I'm glad they didn't because the selection was outstanding for a 2008 leftover collection. I'll definately be going there again a month or so prior to Christmas to see what they have in store for me then. What a deal!

Yes the deals were awesome, and your right if they had advertised there wouldn't have been anything left. However it makes you wonder if they had promptly advertised last year when they wanted to get rid of Halloween merchandise they could have sold it at a higher profit margin. Why wouldn't they try and do that instead?
