One of the biggest secrets to saving money is knowing the sale cycles! Buy when the price is at it’s lowest and you will save every time!

January is a great month to save on….

Christmas clearance items:  Not all stores are cleared out for Christmas the day after Christmas. Keep your eye out for Toys on clearance, wrapping paper, decorations, lights, ornaments, candy and much more. Look for the Target toy clearance sale in January too! One of my favorite clearance items to find is Glade candles. You can often get them FREE when you combine these coupons with the clearance price.

Health Products: Diet shakes, diet bars, vitamins, medicines for cold and flu season and smoking cessation medications.

Fitness Equipment: It is time to think about getting healthy again! You can find workout games, Fitness DVD’s, fitness equipment and fitness magazines at great prices.

Quaker products: Look for a sale on Quaker products at your local grocery store and stock up on granola bars, oatmeal and cereal for a great sale price!

Super Bowl Party : Super Bowl is around the corner and stores will have sales on food and snacks for Super Bowl. Looks for deals on  soda, crackers, chips, dip, salsa, cream cheese, crackers and cookies. This is also  a good time to get a new TV if you have been looking for one.

Semi-annual sales: at Bath & Body Works and Gap and many other stores in your local mall.

Winter Clothes: Look for winter clothes on clearance and stock up for your kids, spouse or yourself for next year.
