Save Money Shopping One Season Behind
You may be still paying off your summer vacation. You may feel the need to start socking away money to cover your winter holiday shopping budget. There may be nothing that you really need to buy right now. Even so, there’s a good argument to be made that you can and should be shopping in September—and that you can feel smart, thrifty, and virtuous about it.
If you want to update your summer wardrobe without spending a lot of money, the best time to buy is in September. Shopping websits and stores need space to display all the new fall and winter fashions, so those summer clothes need to go. That means big discounts for savvy shoppers.
If You Can Wait, You’ll Find Better Deals on Summer Clothes
Shopping websites and clothing stores are constantly rotating stock. Each season has signature fashions and the stores need to get rid of last season’s merchandise before the new stock comes in. This means that you can find great discounts if you shop at the end of the season.
Shopping one season behind is very easy for adult clothing. We are done growing and unless we have a dramatic change in weight, we know what size of clothes we wear. Buying clothes in a good cut and quality fabrics is always a good investment.
That is the real trick to buying summer clothes at the end of the season: they can be more versatile than winter wear. Your size may not be available and you may need to mix and match tops and bottoms, different colour combinations and styles.
Where to Find the Best Deals
- Watch the ads: As soon as you see the first sales in the banners, check your favourite shopping websites and stores to stock up on summer deals. This is your signal that they are filled with tank tops and summer dresses at lower prices.
- Shop the clearance racks: Some websites and stores have a better sale selection than others and some of the best will fill half of the sales floor with clearance clothes as the seasons change. Learn which websites and local stores has the best clearance selection and visit them at key times of the year.
- The longer you wait, the cheaper it gets: This is the gamble you take on season-end clearance. However, if you can wait just a little longer, you will find items marked down even more! Selection does become limited, but it’s worth checking back after a few weeks.
