Fall is right around the corner, and now is a great time to find significant savings on a handful of products and services — from gardening supplies to airfare!
1. Mattresses
Along with Memorial Day, Labor Day is the best time of year to buy a mattress. Shop direct at brands like Serta, Tempur-Pedic, and Tuft & Needle for significant savings on a new bed. Or, check out your local mattress discount store or online retailers like Overstock.com for hundreds of dollars off the price of mattresses and box springs, as well as special offers like “Free bedframe with the purchase of any mattress.”
2. Airfare
September is the best time to book airfare for your winter getaway. Flights are usually cheapest about 8 weeks before your departure date. If you plan to travel for Thanksgiving, aim to book your flight the last one or two weeks of September.
3. Apple Products
Apple has usually unveiled its newest products during September. That means that September is the time to look for steep discounts on devices like iPhones, iPads, and AirPods.
4. School Supplies
Now that school is back in session, expect to see steep discounts on all school supplies — from paper and pencils to backpacks and calculators. Stock up on these essentials now and store them away for later in the year or next school season.
5. Diabetic Supplies
September is Diabetes Awareness Month. Look for sales on diabetic testing supplies such as glucose meters and testing strips, as well as diabetic food, drinks, and supplements.
6. Gardening Supplies
Gardening staples like mulch, plants and flowers, seeds, hoses, flower pots, and gardening tools will be discounted 75-90% off during September as retailers try to clear their shelves to make room for fall inventory. Buy now and store these summer staples away for next season.
