10 Things to Buy in July
Happy July, my friends!
Let’s make July even happier by saving money and getting the best deals.
Here are a few things to buy in July.
Patriotic Items – Happy 4th of July
The best time to buy patriotic items is actually after July 4th. Buy your American patriotic items once they hit 90% off in the stores.
I pick up stuff as low as a dime or even less!
Back-to-School Sales
July is one of my favorite times of year simply because the back-to-school sales hit the stores. I love to get a lot of 35-cent boxes of crayons and 50-cent boxes of markers.
Some stores have already been running some back-to-school sales since May!
Back-to-school sales include way more than boxes of crayons.
Practically everything to furnish a home will go on sale too.
Stores realize that students are heading off to college and will need to set up housekeeping.
They will offer everything from coffee pots to furniture to computers at marked-down prices.
Back-to-school sale items not only make great school supplies, but they also make awesome Christmas gifts.
National Ice Cream Day
National Ice Cream Day is July 21st this year.
Watch for ice cream deals, especially from places like McDonald’s and Dairy Queen.
Watch the Dairy Queen and McDonald’s apps for deals.
7-11 Free Slurpees
July 7th is near and dear to the heart of 7-11 stores.
7-11 on 7/11 will be giving away a free Slurpee to celebrate!
Go download the 7-11 app and get your free Slurpee!
Fishing Gear
Watch for sales on fishing gear this month. Things like, rods, reels, tackle, etc. will be on sale throughout the summer.
Fishing can be a really fun and frugal way to have family time.
Just make sure you are buying your fishing gear when it is marked down.
Camping
I know it seems crazy to think that summertime things, like fishing stuff, summer sports, and camping gear would be going on sale right while all of that stuff is at the height of being used, but stores are always trying to stay a season ahead of the game.
They must stay a step ahead of the game.
They are making room for the fall inventory.
Make sure you check out the camping section of the stores and buy in July.
Sports Gear, especially baseball and golf
Again, the stores are starting to mark down this type of stuff to make room for the next season’s inventory.
July is a great time to grab sporting gear for next year.
Watch for sports gear, especially baseball and golf gear in July.
Don’t forget to fill the gift closet!
Seasonal Clothing
Now is the time to pick up some super cheap summer clothing.
I love this time of year!
One July, I got a bunch of summertime socks for a dime in the clearance aisle at Walmart.
There are t-shirts, shorts, dresses, and more being marked down in July.
Grab some clearance items now for back-to-school time!
Labor Day Flights
Planning a trip this fall?
Don’t wait to buy your Labor Day airline tickets.
Traditionally, we see Labor Day flights marked down to rock-bottom prices in July.
Clearance Racks
Don’t miss out on the clearance deals in July. Some of my favorite places to get clearance deals this month, include Dollar General, Family Dollar, Walmart, and Walgreens.
July is the perfect month to find rock-bottom prices on toys.
It is a great time to fill up the gift closet.
Start marking off Christmas and birthday gifts for the rest of the year.
