Multipurpose Cleaner
- Price: $4.99
Dust off the shelves, wipe down the counters and scrub-a-dub-dub that tub because spring means it is time to clean up your house. One of the best tools to have in your spring cleaning arsenal is a 16-ounce bottle of Mr. Clean fresh freak cleaning mist that you can pick up at Target for just under $5. No mess, no stress, just spring savings from Target!

Potting Soil
- Price: $5.79
Spring is the time of year to get your garden in order, and it doesn’t have to be the traditional flower beds or root vegetables that sprout in your yard or inside your home. It can be cacti, palms and citrus fruits, all of which need to be nurtured and fertilized properly with the right kind of base, like the Miracle-Gro cactus palm citrus potting soil. You can pick it up at Target right now for under $6, another top seller from your favorite retailer.

Easter Candy
- Price: $6.19
It seems like every season has its sugary treats and sweet snacks, but Easter is a time for celebration that absolutely requires candy. Why not head over to Target right now before the spring rush and grab a few bags of Cadbury milk chocolate mini eggs for just $6.19. That way, you’ll be ready to fill up those Easter baskets and eggs when that special Sunday comes — that is, if you haven’t snuck a few for yourself before then.
