Some items are cheaper at certain times. Hence, with planning and knowledge, you will be able to save more money when purchasing throughout the year.
Here are the 11 cheapest things to buy from January to March 2015:
IN JANUARY
1. HOLIDAY ITEMS
Holiday items such as surplus or unused gift cards, Christmas decorations, and wrapping papers are now selling with discount in stores and in the Internet (e.g., eBay or Carousell). Buy now, as their condition and use will remain ’till next year.
2. LINENS AND BEDDINGS
Retailers offer huge discounts on sheets, towels, and blankets in January. But, keep an eye on it all year round, since retailers will put last season’s stuff on sale when new products come out.
3. VIDEO GAMES
Numerous video games go on sale after the holidays are over. Check out Steam and other gaming retailers for discounted prices.
4. COMPUTERS

Like video games, companies offer discounts on older computer models to prepare for the upcoming release of new components and systems.
IN FEBRUARY
1. MOBILE PHONES
Some stores offer hand phone sales or even a buy-one-take-one scheme during Valentine’s Day. It may seem strange but it’s true.
2. WASHER, DRYER AND AIR CONDITIONER
During cold weather months, many appliance stores offer air conditioners at cheap prices. Also, old models of washer and dryers are being sold with good deals.
IN MARCH
1. WEDDINGS

Tying the knot in this month means taking full advantage of the discounted prices on reception venues, catering, and photography. You must always be cautious of the venue’s weather.
2. CHOCOLATES
The surpluses from last month’s chocolates are sold for lower prices.

3. LUGGAGE
Retailers offer discount on luggage before vacation seasons of spring and summer arrives.
4. GOLF CLUBS
New models are coming out for the summer, so your local golf shops are pushing the old ones out. What’s more? Last year’s gold club models are much cheaper.
4. DIGITAL CAMERAS
Consumer reports and marketing analysis prefers grabbing digital camera in March and April, as sales are the best.
