Seasonal Savings
Almost everything we need for our homes goes on sale during the year. I'm working hard to make these purchases when they are on sale, instead of when I want to buy them. Granted, I'm not in the mindset to purchase a Winter coat when it's 70 degrees outside but, it's when it will warrent the most savings. Here is a general chart about what's on sale throughout the year and when.
January/February - brings white sales and President's Day sales
Clothing - men's shirts, party dresses, formal clothing
Linens - Towels and sheets
Appliances - clothes dryers, used cars, water heaters
Furniture
Gift items - Christmas wrap, ornaments, etc, as well as toys and other gift items
Groceries - Meat (turkey, ham) and baking items.
March - brings the end of Winter sales and pre-spring sales
Clothing - Winter clothing, shoes and coats
Appliances - TVs, washing machines and housewares
Household - Ski Equipment
Groceries - Artichokes
April/May - brings Mother's Day sales, post Easter sales and Memorial Day sales
Clothing - dresses, coats
Linens - Towels
Appliances - Tvs, tires
Household - Paint, tools, gardening supplies, camping and boating equipment
Gifts - Gift items
Groceries - Dairy products, ham, eggs and chicken
June/July - brings Father's Day sales
Clothing - Summer clothing and school clothing
School supplies
August/September - Brings end of Summer sales, Labor Day sales
Clothing - Summer clothing, swimwear
Household - Garden supplies and tools, outdoor furniture, rugs and carpets, bicycles
Furniture
Groceries - Fish
October -
Household - Summer sport equipment, cars from dealerships (stay close to the end of the month for the best savings)
November-
Real Estate - homes tend to be cheaper this time of year because really, who wants to move around the holidays?
Electronics - think Black Friday
Groceries - spices
December - Not the best time to buy anything, try to wait until December 26th
I'm not saying that I am able to follow this chart but it is a general guideline to what to buy when. It's really common sense. Try to buy your wrapping paper in January if you can and store it - that way you'll be ready and will likely spend .99 a roll instead of 5.99 (or more!)
Do you have any items you buy during certain months over others?
Have a great Thursday!
