Thanks. I find great buys on cashmere sweaters in March, April. They are usually on clearance at that time. Funnily enough, I'm usually able to find what I want in my size.silverdothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07838951385147249808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7584642723991168875.post-14665689416633326362008-11-23T04:50:13.826Z2008-11-23T04:50:13.826ZI caught this on a morning news show last year, and it stuck with me because it made sense:<BR/><BR/>Best time to buy a TV: February. Prices hit their lows AFTER THE SUPERBOWL.MoneyMateKatehttp://www.moneymatekate.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7584642723991168875.post-90339953111634775672008-11-23T03:39:10.066Z2008-11-23T03:39:10.066ZI would say you have more leverage in June/July. But there are more deals around in January. Just like you start to see more and more ads for Nicorette, etc. They know people are still devoted to their New Year&#39;s resolutions and want to get them into a contract asap.<BR/><BR/>I usually shop the end of the season sales and then just wear the items the next year. But I&#39;m also warmer blooded than most, so I can wear short sleeves more comfortably in the fall/winter.<BR/><BR/>I would be willing to bet that the best time to buy any high-priced items (esp electronics or cars) will be Jan 2009. Everyone is always hurting after the holiday season. (And I just wrote a whole piece about how people are still going to overspend, no matter what the polls say.) So that means less spending, plus we&#39;ll be hitting a particular low-note in the economy by then. So salesmen will be desperate to make deals.<BR/><BR/>Granted, that means you have to find a store where they can toy with prices.<BR/><BR/>It will probably be great for places like cell phone stores. Expensive electronics, but I got the distinct impression recently from an AT&amp;T rep that he had some latitude for negotiating.Abigailhttp://ipickuppennies.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7584642723991168875.post-25416997182210151022008-11-21T17:17:03.973Z2008-11-21T17:17:03.973ZGreat tips!
