Lawson reports. We’re sharing some shopping do’s and don’ts when shopping for out-of-season apparel in October. Let’s talk about clothes first, shall we? What will happen in winter? So what do we no longer need? Something with short sleeves. No need for shorts. So what is already on the clearance racks because these stores want to get rid of all this and move their winter clothes? So we need to unload this for a deep discount here at Kohl’s, for example, a report from Kohl’s told Lawson. For most of October, almost everything in the store will be 20% off, and sometimes even more clearance, like the clearance rack here. So, I bought a short sleeve one for next summer. For example, if Target has a big sale, don’t forget to stock up on candy and costumes for Halloween. why? Because they see the clock ticking forward to October 31st and guess what? On November 1st, I don’t need any more Halloween stuff, so I’ll wait until later in the month on my watch. got it. For example, the Target app has a whole ***Halloween section. Click on it and you’ll see some great deals. That costume. It was 5999. I’m 24 now. that’s right. This was 49. There are currently 26 Bogo Candy deals, 50% off, 50% off. Two for $9. So it’s the beginning of the month. Please wait for *** to arrive a little later. Come on, let’s have a shop-only sale this month. Target Circle Week runs from October 6th to 12th. Amazon’s Prime Day returns on October 8th and 9th. And Walmart is having an early holiday sale from October 8th to 13th. But there’s one thing that all experts agree on: Don’t buy electronics like TV S laptops or smartwatches this month. I know it’s tempting. I want it right now. Please don’t buy this month. Because Black Friday, Cyber Monday, this item isn’t actually on sale in October. So wait until after Thanksgiving. By the way, according to Teller Rothman, stores are planning to start these sales in early November, so you may not even need to, but don’t buy in October. Even better deals are coming.
