If you are still in need of Summer items because, lets face it, there still is lots of warm weather activities to be found, in August you can get some bargains! Shop for leftover clothing, last year’s sneaker models, swimwear, outdoor toys, camping equipment, and garden supplies. Don’t forget firewood! If you’re lucky enough to have a fireplace, now is the time to snag some freshly cut green wood because its cheap. If you store it in a dry place it will be ready for winter!

If you’re in need of school supplies, buy the basics, pens and pencils, while they are on super low prices at Staples and supermarkets. If you have your school’s supply list you can find bargains now and a good selection. Don’t forget to add a backpack to your list. Now is the time to save! If you wait until school starts, the mad rush is on and you may not find what you need.

Need a new car? This is the month to save on one! Dealers are trying to make room for the 2018’s.

If you’re looking for a last-minute getaway go in August! Prices drop significantly, plus in areas like the Caribbean, it is hurricane season, so prices will dip.

In the supermarket combine your coupons with sales on jelly, lunch meat, yogurt, chips, snack cakes, ice cream, cookies, bottled water, drink boxes, and iced tea mixes.
