Buy During Price Drop Seasons

Every product category has a predictable annual price floor. TVs: Super Bowl week (January-February) and Black Friday. Mattresses: Presidents' Day and Memorial Day. Appliances: September-October (new models launch, old stock clears). Winter clothing: January. Summer clothing: August. Cars: end of quarter (March, June, September) and end of model year (October-December). Amazon devices: Prime Day (July) and Black Friday. Knowing the calendar saves more than any coupon. A TV bought in February is 20-40% cheaper than the same TV in August. Patience is the most underrated shopping skill.
