10 things to Buy in February
Strategic Shopping means there’s a season and a time to buy everything. Buying at the wrong time could literally cost you hundreds of dollars.
It also means to have a plan of action.
Make a plan of action for your February shopping.
#1 – National Canned Food Month
February is National Canned Food Month!
Canned foods, like soup, canned veggies, canned fruit, and more are on sale this month.
Watch your stores’ sales ads for all of those canned foods deals. Look for coupons on the companies’ websites, and of course on coupon websites, like this ONE.
#2 – National Hot Breakfast Month
February is also National Hot Breakfast Month.
Watch for deals on waffles, pancakes, sausage sandwiches, bacon, sausage, oatmeal, and more.
If it is considered a hot breakfast meal, then there should be a deal this month!
#3 –Valentine’s Day Clearance
Every real Strategic Shopper looks forward to February 15th way more than February 14th. Bring on that 1/2 price candy!
The prices will continue to fall as we move further away from Valentine’s Day.
My favorite price, of course, is when all of that wonderful sweetness hits 90% off!
#4 – President’s Day is in February
Retailers are always looking for a good reason to run a sale, and President’s Day is no exception.
Watch for sales on things like bedding, furniture, mattresses, and small kitchen appliances.
#5 – Tires
Watch for deals, coupon codes, and promotions on tires this month, especially around President’s Day.
#6 – Tax Software
Search for coupons, deals, and promo codes before purchasing any tax software.
#7 – Winter Apparel
Winter apparel, including warm clothing, boots, slippers, and more are being marked down everywhere you look.
This is the perfect time for us to get into the stores and grab these deals in order to fill up the gift closet.
I live in the North Country, so Christmas time brings cold and snow. Our stores are filled with cold-weather clothing.
The type of clothing being offered at deep discounts right now is exactly the type of clothing I want to give at Christmas time.
I don’t, however, want to pay the prices that are on these things once Christmas rolls back around.
I started filling up my gift closet with warm clothing already, and I will continue to do so over the next few months as the clearance prices only get better and better.
#8 – Gas Grills
We are buried in snow here in Northern New York! I am so looking forward to barbecue season! February is a great time to find deals on gas grills.
#9 – Air Conditioners
Stores are preparing for the changing of the seasons even if the weather isn’t! February is a good time to get deals on air conditioners.
The cruise companies actually realize we are still suffering with winter weather. Their solution is to offer great deals on cruises this month! (Some places are waiting until March to offer their best deals, though.)
#10 – Exercise Equipment
Remember all of those New Year’s resolution to start exercising and to get into shape?
Right, most everyone has forgotten those resolutions!
Well, the exercise equipment companies want to help remind you by offering some great prices this month.
