Things to Buy on Sale in February
With a special holiday involving flowers, chocolate, and hearts coming up soon, you may have been planning to spend your extra money on Valentine’s Day items over the next couple of weeks. If you’re hoping to save money in February, though, those are definitely not the items that will be on sale… at least not during the first half of the month! Retailers are motivated to clear out winter inventory to make room for spring’s arrival. Anything cold weather-related – heavy coats, gloves, hats, boots, and ski gear – gets marked down in price. Home improvement stores discount grills, snow blowers, firewood, and more. Every part of the year has items that tend to be available for lower-than-usual prices, and the last full month of winter is no exception.
Every part of the year has items that tend to be available for lower-than-usual prices, and the last full month of winter is no exception. Here is an expanded list of things to buy on sale in February:
Score Sweet Deals This February: What To Buy (and When!)
Valentine’s Day might have you thinking hearts and flowers, but savvy shoppers know February is prime time for scoring deals on unexpected items. Retailers are clearing out winter inventory to make room for spring goodies, so think cozy gear, home improvement essentials, and even electronics.
Bundle Up While Prices Go Down: Winter Apparel and Gear
As the last snowflakes of winter melt away, retailers are eager to move those bulky coats, gloves, hats, and boots. This means fantastic deals on winter wear for next year – think stocking up on warm layers before the chill sets in again! It’s also a great time to snag discounts on ski gear, snowboards, ice skates, and other cold-weather essentials you might need for your winter adventures.
Fire Up Your Grill (Later) with February Savings
Sure, grilling season feels miles away, but February is actually the perfect time to score a new grill at a bargain price. Home improvement stores are looking to clear out inventory before spring, so those shiny gas grills are calling your name. Check yours for any wear and tear – maybe a fresh start is in order before those summer BBQs fire up!
Beat the Summer Heat: Air Conditioners on Sale
Let’s face it, unless you live in a perpetually balmy climate, your air conditioner is probably taking a well-deserved break right now. But this lull in usage is precisely when retailers offer discounts on new AC units. Did yours struggle to keep cool last summer? Now’s the time to invest in a fresh system and be ready for those scorching summer days ahead.
Freshen Up Your Home (and Wallet): Cleaning Supplies and Services
Spring cleaning fever is about to hit, so why not get a head start with discounted cleaning supplies? Plus, keep an eye out for deals on professional cleaning services – who wouldn’t love a little help tackling those deep-cleaning tasks?
Sleep Tight: Mattress Mania in February
New mattress models are typically released in the spring, making February prime time for scoring incredible discounts on existing inventory. So, if your mattress is starting to feel like a lumpy potato sack, treat yourself to an upgrade without breaking the bank.
Electronics Bonanza: Super Bowl and Presidents’ Day Deals
Super Bowl season often brings sizzling deals on TVs – perfect for catching all the game-day action in style. Plus, as new electronics models are released later in spring, retailers discount older models, creating a goldmine of opportunities for tech lovers. Laptops, smartphones, headphones – you name it, February is a great month to find it for less.
Furnish Your Home with Flair: Last Year’s Styles at Deep Discounts
Many furniture manufacturers unveil their newest designs in the spring, prompting retailers to clear out last year’s styles at deeply discounted prices. This means you can score stylish and functional pieces without paying full price.
Flowers and Chocolate
Don’t get your hopes up; you won’t see sales on these types of romantic items until after Valentine’s Day. But you might as well pick some up for yourself after the holiday. Particularly if you’re doing some heavy cleaning, you’ll want to decorate with fresh flowers and reward yourself with a few delicious chocolates afterward!
During the month of February, keep your eyes open for Super Bowl sales in the early part of the month, then Presidents’ Day sales later on. A lot of what will be on sale will consist of electronics, but you’re likely to see other great deals as well.
