1. Shop “Senior Tuesday” at ROSS stores.
ROSS offers 10% discount to those aged 55+ every Tuesday. Check with your local store to see if this offer is available.
2. Be aware of “Markdown Mondays.”
ROSS stores often mark down items on Monday. Shop on Monday, or even early Tuesday to get these items before others! By Sunday, store managers might have their list of markdowns for Monday. It doesn’t hurt to ask a store manager which markdowns to expect for the week.

4. Find discounted items that are not in the clearance section.
Some deals might not be in the clearance section or marked with a giant “clearance” sign. Browse racks throughout the store and you might find heavily discounted items that you weren’t expecting!
These discounts don’t just happen during the ROSS 49¢ sale. You can find discounts of 20% – 60% year-round!
5. Inventory changes frequently.
ROSS regularly updates its inventory. When you see a great deal, scoop it up as it’s not guaranteed to be there next time. Likewise, if you didn’t find what you were looking for one week, you might just find it the following one. You should schedule time to go into the store and look at the products.
6. Keep an eye out for tags marked “Irregular.”
Every once in awhile, you’ll spot an “irregular” item. This indicates that the product didn’t meet manufacturer guidelines. These are sometimes defective products you should avoid, but at other times they may only be minor irregularities and you can get a good price.
7. Buy early to secure the top brands.
Branded items with discounts tend to sell out quickly. Shop early and during the week to avoid crowds.
