When To Get The Best Deal ALL Year long
JANUARY
Air conditioners: It’s obviously not the season when they’re in demand, so you can usually get one for less. Carpeting: You’ll start to see deals beginning in mid-December but prices drop the most in early January. Tax rebate time heralds the start of prime carpet-buying season, and thus an end to the low prices. FEBRUARY
Tools: Makers of buzz saws and power drills tend to push their products early in the year. Cameras: This is when new models are rolled out, so the old ones get marked down. MARCH
Luggage: Summer vacation is months away and makers need to move the merch. Televisions: The fiscal year ends now for Japanese manufacturers, so what’s left in stock can be had for a song. APRIL
Cruises: Fewer travelers means lower prices. Car accessories: Time to move old inventory and get ready for car repair season. MAY
Patio furniture: Stores need to make room for brand-new models, so it’s a buyer’s market. Vacuum cleaners: Ditto. JUNE
Large appliances: It’s floor model season, so you can often get a slightly dinged washer or dryer if you look. Gym memberships: New Year’s resolution season is long gone. JULY
Grills: Once July 4th is over, prices are slashed. Furniture: July marks when stores make their big inventory push. AUGUST
Laptops: Back-to-school sales are just kicking off. Wine: Small producers often discount early in the harvest. SEPTEMBER
Cars: Dealers are looking at remainders from last year’s inventory and waiting for the arrival of next year’s fleet. Make an offer. Lawnmowers: The last mowers to sell until the grass is green again are priced to move. OCTOBER
Jeans: What didn’t get sold in the back-to-school season is on sale now. Toys: Manufacturers often try to kick-start the holiday season by luring buyers now. NOVEMBER
Candy: Anything left over from Halloween is cheap this month. Cookwear: Pots and pans get marked down in anticipation of the Christmas season. DECEMBER
Wedding dresses: Right before Christmas is the slow season in the bridal market. Home theater equipment: The best deals are often in January, but it’s worth a trip to the electronics store to check prices now.
