This beloved week-long celebration honors the time-tested tradition of seeking out exceptional deals and discovering unexpected treasures.   National Bargain Hunting Week recognizes that the hunt for a great deal can be just as exciting as the item discovered. Whether rummaging through boxes at a flea market, browsing the clearance rack at a department store, exploring yard sales for unique finds, or shopping at off-price retailers, bargain hunting has become both an art form and a popular recreational activity for millions of Americans.   The observance comes at an ideal time as families prepare for back-to-school shopping and retailers offer end-of-summer clearance sales. Industry data shows that savvy shoppers who embrace bargain hunting strategies can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars annually on everything from clothing and household items to electronics and home décor.
