Looking for bargains? The bargain calendar is a must for anyone who likes to save. Whether you're looking for cheap winter or summer clothing, a new TV or lawn mower. With the bargain calendar you have a nice overview when you can make your move in the stores. Optimal savings starts with the sales calendar.
Of course, most people know that it is best to buy winter clothes at the end of winter. This also applies to summer clothing that is often already discounted on the shelves in July. However, sale applies to so many more items. It would be a shame to buy a product only to find out for a week that it is now on sale. Handy to have an overview with all the bargains and sales. Of course, some store will deviate from this, but certainly large chains follow the calendar closely.
When it comes to sales, stores take into account the changing of the seasons. Very useful of course for clothing and accessories. After all, that one nice bikini is of little use in the middle of winter. And what to do with warm gloves if the sparrows fall dead from the roof outside from the heat? In addition, other factors are also taken into account. In the case of electronics, for example, consider the release of new devices after major trade fairs. Even holidays, vacations and the receipt of holiday pay are taken into account in the sale.
Smarter buyers take this into account and only buy when the products are on sale. Sale prices can rise considerably, up to tens of percent off the original price. Ideal if you still want to buy that one great winter coat, but the price is actually outside your budget. Just wait for the right moment and score for the next winter season.
