Spend some time visiting your regional online Forums (you don't have to participate, because some can get raunchy). But occasionally you can pick up news on local sales or Bike Swap Meets. If you hear of a LBS that's closing, they'll often have clearance sales... not that I wish that on any LBS!

I just went to a local swap meet at the Velodrome and scored a $10 l/s Shebeest jersey, $10 Sugoi shorts, $5 Specialized gloves and $1 bar tape. All were brand new. Just keep your eyes and ears open!
