July’s Best Deals

July 1st, 2009 · 2 Comments

Are you ready to do some bargain shopping? Although you won’t find everything on sale in July, you will certainly find some good buys in some departments. Check out these potential bargains to see if their on you prospective shopping list

Computers – New models will be coming out in a month or two, so this may be a great time to purchase last year’s models at discounted prices. If you’re in the market for a new computer or laptop, you should start shopping slowly by getting familiar with the available models and their prices. Then, as the prices drop, you’ll recognize the good buys.

Cookout Supplies – Whether you’re looking for new grill accessories or fun, outdoor plates to serve your cookout grub on, you’ll find plenty of options in your favorite store’s bargains aisles in July. Just wait until the 4th of July has passed and get ready to shop.

New Cars – Although you should never buy a new car simply because you can get a good price, you won’t find better prices than the ones available in late July. The new year’s models start showing up late in the summer, so dealers need to start selling the current models now. In addition, the current economic situation has made many dealers desperate to make a sale.
Finally, one of the economic stimulus packages passed by Congress has made the sales tax paid on new cars tax deductible.

Plants – Now that the rush for spring planting has passed, many hardware store and home improvement centers are left with excess stock in their landscaping departments. Typically, for instance, one store in my area offers discounts as high as 75% off of the original price for bedding plants.

Swimsuits – By the time July arrives, you can bet that swim apparel for the whole family will be migrating to the clearance sections of your favorite stores. If your family is fortunate enough to get to spend a lot of time at a pool or beach, July is the perfect time to stock up on an extra suit for yourself or the kids. Don’t forget to check out beach towels, too.

    How to Save Year Round, by Mom of 2.

    I have shared this with my friends and now I am sharing it with the web!! I have saved so much money shopping with discounted gift cards! You talk about free money. My daughter loves Old Navy so I go to my favorite site:

    http://www.dogpawgiftcards.com

    and go to their: Hot Cards & New Listings section to see if they have movie tickets, Old Navy, my favorite restaurants, starbucks….all of the stores and restaurants that I frequent and buy gift cards at a discount. I pay $45 and receive $50…or pay $9 dollars and receive $10. Ok, you do that a couple of times and before you know it you are saving $100, $200, $300 dollars a month. Do the math- that’s over $1,000 a year in savings!!! I am not smart just savvy….it’s not rocket science; I also cut coupons to save 25 cents so I am the first to get in line for big savings like these.
    Enjoy- Mom of 2
