September promotions and discounts: what to buy and what to refuse this month

September is already in the yard, which means that summer is behind us, and this is disappointing for many. In addition, we have more than one week to wait for Halloween, and at first glance it seems that September will not please us with anything interesting. Not at all - this month is actually a great opportunity to make some interesting purchases. What exactly is worth buying, said the publication Money Talks News.

12 items to buy in September

1. Summer clothes

In the first month of autumn, the warm season comes to an end, and this is the perfect time to buy summer clothes. Labor Day sales are a great opportunity to find great deals, but even without them, you'll still find big discounts.

If you're looking for kidswear, look no further than Target, which dropped 2021% of their Cat&Jack and Cloud Island lines in September 20. Keep an eye out for kid-friendly retailers like The Children's Place - they also have great September sales (up to 60% off last year).

Cheaper prices are expected not only for children's clothing. Kohl's usually offers at least 50% off women's clothing, while Belk offers 50% off women's shoes and boots, and Jos. A. Bank may reduce the starting price of its shirts to just $3, as it did last September.

2. Large home appliances

Labor Day is one of the last sales periods of the year when you can count on savings when buying large household appliances.

Last year KitchenAid was offering 10% off and Samsung was offering up to 35%. While Best Buy and Lowe's made their own discounts on appliances, they varied by category so there was no specific percentage. However, Home Depot offered significant savings of up to 53% on various large appliances.

3. Mattresses

Labor Day is a great time to buy a new mattress, as online and brick-and-mortar stores have sales.

Last year, Purple made discounts of up to $350 on select sets in September, while Macy's dropped 20% to 65% on mattresses, furniture and carpets.

Home Depot offered discounts of up to 50% on furniture, mattress toppers and bedding, and mattress accessories.

4. Grills

Although many grill in the fall, it is considered more of a summer pastime. And so retail stores will sell a variety of grills at a discount.

Home Depot may offer discounts of up to $50 on grills and grill accessories, while Costway will cut prices by up to 25% and BBQGuys by up to 60% cost and offer free products.

5. School supplies

And while many were likely stocking up on school supplies, inflation may have kept some from spending and forced them to wait for discounts.

If you still need to shop for school supplies, keep an eye out for the discounts many stores offer in September as they try to clear shelves and make room for fall and winter items.

Amazon typically offers up to 37% off Amazon Basics, and Office Depot and OfficeMax can cut prices on various school supplies by over 50%. Watch out for discounts on brands in stores. Last year, Amazon slashed the cost of Bic writing instruments by 81%, and made a 67% discount on Pilot pen sets. Staples is also likely to take part in the promotion and offer items at up to 85% off, as they did last year.

6. Previous generation iPhone (probably)

Apple regularly announces new iPhones, Apple Watches, and other gadgets it considers themed during a big event every September. This year's Apple event will take place on September 7th. Thus, depending on the release date of the new iPhones, price cuts for the previous generation models should be expected. That is, if you are looking for a new iPhone, you can immediately save by choosing last year's model.

However, there is a good chance that for now any price drop will be modest. If you can wait until Black Friday, then you should.

7. Bicycles

Since the warm days fade away within a month, September is also a good time to buy bikes. Many people use bikes all year round, but demand drops when it gets cold, so outdoor vendors discount them.

Keep an eye out for retailers like The House for up to 50% off, and Sierra boasts another sale that sees prices cut by up to 94% on various items.

8. Bedding

Some retailers will offer a set of mattresses and bedding, but this may not be to everyone's liking as sometimes you just want to freshen up your bedding. The good news is that sales of various types of sheets and blankets should begin in September.

Check out stores like Amazon that offer 4-piece sets for just $17 and up to 50% off a variety of bedding. At Macy's, you can get at least 60% off some duvets, Kohl's will cut the price of linens by 60%, and Wayfair can sell bedding for as low as $50.

9. Flights

You probably won't find a good deal on holiday weekend flights, but six to eight weeks before departure it's possible to book flights for the best prices, so the end of September is perfect for booking Thanksgiving tickets.

When planning your trip, take into account long stops, because there were many flight cancellations in the summer.

10. Garden tools

If you're looking for new gardening tools for your summer outdoors, this is another item that's heavily discounted at the end of the season.

Let's say 2 packs of gardening gloves cost about $5, while hose attachments can cost as little as $13 and you can get 2 packs of ant killer for the same price.

Do you need real tools? Shears will set you back as little as $17, leaf blowers from $20, branch chainsaws $35, and cordless trimmers and looms as low as $55.

11. Discounts on National Coffee Day

Every year, National Coffee Day falls on September 29th, and many restaurants use it as an opportunity to lure customers in with great deals.

Keep an eye out for donut shops and convenience stores that offer coffee. Sometimes it will be completely free, especially for members of the loyalty program - while others may ask you to make a purchase.

Even if you need to buy something, you can take advantage of these offers by purchasing a simple item like a glazed donut for a relatively low price and you will get a cup of your favorite coffee for free.

12. Seasonal fruits and vegetables

While September 22 marks the astronomical start of autumn, there's still plenty of time for you to enjoy seasonal summer foods before they're gone.

You can buy apples, melons, figs, grapes, mangoes, persimmons, pomegranates and tomatoes.

If you're looking for fresh vegetables, get ready to enjoy autumn's flavors with pumpkin, beets, cauliflower, eggplant, green beans, lettuce, mushrooms, peppers, spinach, and sweet potatoes.
