Making The Most of Your September Budget



School is in full swing and we are taking a quick look at how to pinch our pennies...

Big appliances:   If your stove, washing machine or other large appliances have quit, now is the perfect time to buy!  

Cars:   Dealerships are starting to move last year's inventory off the lot and start moving in the new.    Go in on a weekday morning and look.   Don't be in a hurry to make a decision.   If you have a car you want, see how long it sits on the lot.   Make an offer after you make observations.


Holiday airfare:   If you will be going to Grandma's house for the holidays now is the time to book those flights!


Laptops:  Back to school laptop deals are still in abundance!

Grills and Lawn Mowers:   You are so glad that the season for cutting grass is over, but stores are looking at all that inventory and are desperate to move it out!


Labor Day:  Keep your eye open for the special deals that will be happening during Labor Day weekend!


Shrubs, Bushes, and Other Landscaping Plants: If you've got a warm area to keep plants, or you live in an area where growing happens all year, now's the time to jump in, Kiplinger says, and help your local greenhouses clear out the stuff that people didn't get ambitious enough to plant this summer.
