Let’s get down to business: if you want to do your Lakeland shopping smartly, you need to know when the right months are to purchase what you want. Here’s a quick rundown of the months and what to buy during that period:
January
Buy unused gift cards, lines, wrapping papers, and computers in January. Companies offer great discounts on laptops and personal computers to give way to the new models for the year. You can also begin storing wrapping papers and Christmas decorations.
February
Wedding essentials, air conditioning systems, washer and dryer, and furniture are cheaper in February. New models and styles hit showroom both for washers and dryers and furniture while air conditioning systems are priced low because of the winter season.
March
It’s best to buy luggage and golf clubs and even boats in March. Spring and summer are heavy travel dates so consumers are looking for good discounts on luggage. March is also the tail end of the boating season so boats are on a discount. As for golf clubs, tees begin in early spring so last season’s irons are on sale.
April
Get ready early for next winter with some down jackets, wool coats, and the like. Since spring collection hits the stores, their winter collection will take the backseat and will end up in the clearance section.
May
Memorial Day sale includes clothing and home goods in many malls. Be sure to check out those. Gym membership fees are also priced lower in May, as well as cookware and dishes since they are great gift ideas for weddings and graduations.
June
Many apparel retailers do their inventories in June which means there will be a lot of clearance sales this month. Back-to-school laptops are great items to score in June, too, as they are often bundled with printers or a gift card.
July
After the 4th of July celebrations, make sure to purchase some picnic items as they are discounted after this great holiday. Jewelers, on the other hand, try to lure their customers with discounted prices on pieces of jewelry because there are no big holidays in July and August.
August
August is one of the most perfect months to spend outdoors. Sure, the sun may be too scorching hot for you but if you want a nice tan while grilling barbecue, August is the perfect month to pick up your grilling equipment.
September
Car dealers are offering great discounts and promotions in September because new models will come out by October. The same can be said for bicycles and mattresses during Labor Day sales.
October
Toy stores offer discounts way ahead of the holiday season. You can begin shopping for gifts for your kids or your nephews and nieces.
November
Nothing is as popular as Black Friday and Cyber Monday when it comes to sales. November is the perfect month to pick up a new digital camera, laptop, or phone.
December
This is the wedding off-season which means wedding dresses are priced low. Even engaged couples are focused on the holidays rather than on their impending wedding, so score your wedding essentials in December.
