What to Do with all that Easter Candy Clearance Easter Candy

By richel on April 4th, 2013

peeps

We found this week at Target, Kmart, Walmart and other stores Easter Candy was on Clearance for 30% to 70% off depending on the store!  Score!! Further your savings by searching for “candy” in our coupon database!

After some inspiration on Pinterest, I decided to go for some extra bags of Easter Chocolate and Peeps for the cupboard just for the purpose of making Peeps S’Mores.  It’s a fun low cost “special treat” for the kids (okay and me too).

If you are shopping the clearance bins, make sure you use the price scanner to double check the product price.  We have heard a few stores have only certain candy at the 70% off price and that it is often mixed with the candy that is only 30% or 50% off.

Here is how to make them up!

Grab some Graham Crackers, Peeps and Marshmallows.  Place a cracker on a cookie sheet.  Place a piece of chocolate on the graham cracker (any kind will do!  Chocolate bunnies, Hershey Mini candy bars, even peanut butter cups).  Then place a Peep on top.  Place in the oven at 250 degrees for about 3 minutes.  Then top with another graham cracker and enjoy!
