<\/a><\/p>\nSports and exercise Equipment \u2013 <\/b>It\u2019s the perfect season for sport. Well it’s not because there\u2019s all that wind and rain but that means it\u2019s the best time to off-season shop and pick up all the gear the family will need in the summer. There is also that old trick of retailers and gyms offering discounts to nab buyers who just made that New Year\u2019s resolution to hit the gym and shape up.<\/p>\n
Linens \u2013 <\/b>In 1879 John Wannamaker started the \u201cwhite sale\u201d to flog linens in a period when sales usually dipped and since then January has become the best month to get bedding and other linens.<\/p>\n
Furniture \u2013 <\/b>New styles hit the floor in February so now is the best time to buy the old stock that stores are trying to offload.<\/p>\n
Clothing \u2013 <\/b>We all know about the post-Christmas sales so don\u2019t forget to use them to stock up the wardrobe with some essentials. The selection might not always be great but the prices will be.<\/p>\n
Theatre Tickets \u2013<\/b> This <\/b>is one of the slower periods for theatre so January is a great time to seek out some discounts. This is the perfect time to broaden your theatrical horizons.<\/p>\n
Suits \u2013 <\/b>Not a lot of people buy suits in January so there is usually a drop in prices.<\/p>\n
Video Games \u2013 <\/b>There\u2019s always a major push of new games out in late autumn in time for the festive season but they\u2019ll go on sale once the holidays are over because there is always a slump in sales after the Christmas rush and they need to make up for it.<\/p>\n
February<\/b><\/p>\n
Cameras \u2013 <\/b>The new models are always announced at the January Consumer Electronics Show so last year\u2019s models will be discounted as soon as possible afterwards so shops can make way for the latest gadgets.<\/p>\n Winter Clothes \u2013 <\/b>Try to survive one more winter with your old battered coat before retiring it because spring fashions start to appear in stores about now so the sales racks will be full of coats and winter boots. However this is one month where you need to find the sweet spot, the later you wait the better the prices will be but wait too long and they\u2019ll be taken off the floor so make sure keep an eye on things.<\/p>\n March<\/b><\/p>\n TVs \u2013 <\/b>Japanese manufacturer\u2019s fiscal year ends in March, so they are eager to get rid of old stock.<\/p>\n BBQ’s \u2013 <\/b>Once it gets to the spring, retailers are serious about getting rid of all their old models so get ready for the summer early.<\/p>\n Golf Clubs \u2013 <\/b>New models come out in summer so they\u2019ll be pushing the old ones out the door.<\/p>\n Luggage \u2013 <\/b>In between summer and winter, the two biggest holiday seasons, everything that wasn\u2019t sold during the holiday season are up for grabs so get ready for your getaways now.<\/p>\n April<\/b><\/p>\n Trainers \u2013 <\/b>The weather is starting to hint at the summer that might be round the corner but probably isn\u2019t.

Take advantage of the spring sales and get yourself a new pair of kicks!<\/p>\n May<\/b><\/p>\n Vacuums \u2013 <\/b>Once again take advantage of the fact that new models will be arriving in June so grab a vacuum for a low price and crack on with the spring cleaning.<\/p>\n Fridges \u2013 <\/b>Most big appliances go on sale later in the year so don\u2019t be caught out when the fridges aren\u2019t on sale. New Fridge models come out in May so last year\u2019s models will be on sales then.<\/p>\n June<\/b><\/p>\n Tools<\/b> \u2013 June is a strange month where the only big event is Father\u2019s Day so you\u2019ll see the typical \u2018man\u2019 things go on sale so take advantage and grab some tools as the prices should have dropped nicely.<\/p>\n Gym Membership and Equipment \u2013 <\/b>Let\u2019s be honest by June everyone has forgotten about their resolutions so gyms are trying to motivate people to re-join, keep your eyes peeled for offers around this time.
