Welcome 2018! Let’s save some money! After the hustle and bustle of the holidays the stores are trying to clear out ALL seasonal merchandise. You can get LOTS of bargains on holiday lights and decor to save for next year. Also, you’ll find low prices on greeting cards, wrapping paper, bows, and everything else that will make next year’s holiday merry because you’ve saved so much and, most of all, you don’t have to shop for these items. If you buy solid color paper products, these can be used all year long!

If Broadway shows are to your liking, you’ll love two-for-one ticket prices during Broadway Week which starts 1-16 through 2-04-18. You will be able to buy your tickets for half-price during that time!

If you want to visit a national park, plan for Martin Luther King Day (1-15-18) to get FREE admission. Other FREE admission dates are: 4-21: First day of National Park Week, 9–22: National Public Lands Day, and 11–11: Veterans Day.

January is also considered White Sale month. You’ll find home goods on sale such as sheets, towels, and other linens in most department stores.

Don’t forget to check for bargains on Winter clothing and athletic shoes. The stores want to make room for all the Spring fashions.

In the supermarket, check for sales on diet foods (it needs no explanation), frozen finger foods for the upcoming Super bowl, soda, and any Christmas clearance items.
