Are you feeling like all the good deals are over after the busy holiday shopping season? Think you have to wait a whole year to get some great bargains? Think again- retailers also want to avoid a slump after the holiday shopping frenzy, so there are some great deals to be had in January! Here are the best bargains for this month:
- Gym membership: Gyms are banking on everyone’s weight loss and fitness resolutions this time of year, so you can score some really great membership packages. If you can’t find a deal you like, try bargaining a little- hey, you never know!
- Fitness equipment: Same as gym membership, so if you’ve been waiting for the right time to buy that elliptical, it might just be now! And make sure you use it!
- Winter outerwear: The height of this shopping season is over and retailers want to make room for spring merchandise, which means you can get a great deal on a coat. If you’re shopping for kids, buy a bigger size and put it away for next winter.
- Credit card promos: There are lots of offers out there with low interest rates or extra rewards points for joining.
- Tax filing software/tax filing services: April 15 will be here before you know it!
- Furniture: You’ll find good sales on furniture and home improvement items.
- White sale: Save on bedding, linens, and towels. The January white sale was originally implemented as a way to avoid a post-holiday retail dip.
- TVs: New models get to stores in February and March, so they’ll want to clear out current inventory.
- Flooring and carpeting: Retailers offer motivation in this slow season. It’s probably a great time to spruce up if you’ve done any heavy holiday entertaining.
- Calendars: They go on sale after New Year’s Day.
- Jewelry: Retailers are getting you ready for Valentine’s Day.
Okay, now get out there and shop!
