Hi everyone, it’s Larissa from Frugalicious, and this is the Deal of the
Day.
Remember to check out our site and register there so you can get the Frugal
Deal every day! Also, don’t forget to enter the giant makeup giveaway that
I posted last week.
Today I’m talking about shopping smart by shopping seasonal sales. I
started thinking about this when I was reading BabyCheapskate’s amazing
blog - you may have heard Erin and Bitsy mention this on their Babies
episode. Angie writes the blog and has some amazing tips on how to save a
TON on babies and kids. If you’re expecting or are currently a mama, make
sure you check it out.
One of the things she does is a Deal Forecaster, where she looks at deals
and sales from previous years, and predicts what we can expect during any
given month. It’s very handy, and this month we’re expecting some great
Easter Sales.
Now, as Easter approaches - April 24th by the way - stores will
increasingly slash prices on Easter-specific merchandise. How can you use
this to your advantage? Well let’s think about what will be on sale -
Easter clothes for the kids - this is HUGE if your little one needs some
new fancy threads. Going to an event during the summer? Snag a cute outfit
during the Easter sales for half the price.
Now we’ve been talking a lot about weddings lately, and you can really use
these Easter sales to your advantage. If you’re looking for flower girl
dresses (spoiler alert for next week’s Mission Frugalicious!) NOW is the
time! What about baskets for the flower girls to hold their petals? NOW is
the time! You can even get things like pastel-colored candy for your event
at a deep discount AFTER Easter.
We’re also going to see some great Mother’s Day sales and special offers
towards the end of the month, so start thinking about what you’re going to
get Mom this year, and save some money by planning in advance!
Remember, with a little planning and organization, you can save tons of
money! And check out BabyCheapskate.com to see what deals you can expect
this month and next.
Thanks for watching guys, Happy Shopping and I’ll see you tomorrow.
