What to Buy Today

Major appliance trade shows and events such as the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) normally take place in January and February. These trade shows often feature new washing machine models and technologies which will begin to hit stores near March. Our analysis of the data suggests that this is the best time to purchase older models that are being cleared off the floor to make room for new merchandise.

Focus on three-day holiday weekends, the end of each quarter, and the end of the year to get the best truck deals.

During these times, mattress shoppers are more likely to find affordable mattress deals on mattresses that can help provide your family with a good night's sleep without breaking the bank!

March is part of the spring sales cycle where manufacturers try to get rid of last year's fridge models to make room for new ones.

The largest cruise discount period of the year, "Wave Season" is when cruise companies run a ton of promotions in preparation for people booking their spring and summer cruises.

In the early spring, manufacturers start shipping their latest models to retailers ahead of the new growing season. By March, vendors will be fully stocked with their new supplies. This means that older models on the floor will be more likely to feature discounts. But some manufacturers offer seasonal discounts between March and May to intentionally capture your attention.

Keep an eye out for "aged inventory," which refers to any inventory that has remained unsold for a period of time.
