March
March isn’t known as the best month for sales and deals, so don’t expect a lot of great deals on high-ticket items this month. Do expect to see some great prices on smaller items like groceries and cleaning supplies.
Cereal
March 7th is National Cereal Day. Expect to see sales on cereal in most grocery stores. Don’t forget to check for coupons to pair with the sales. Many coupons are now online only, so be sure to check your grocery store’s website to see if they offer coupon savings.
Frozen Food
March is National Frozen Food Month. Check your local grocery store flyers to save the most on frozen food. A well-stocked freezer will save you money all year long. I use several grocery and receipt apps to save even more.
Snack Food
Expect to find some great deals on snacks and soda this month in preparation for March Madness. Also, March 14 is National Potato Chip Day, and March 23 is National Chip and Dip Day. Expect to see some great sales on all sorts of chips!
St. Patrick’s Day Foods
This month, you will find the absolute best prices on corned beef and cabbage. I always buy extra corned beef in March to freeze for later. Properly stored cabbage can last from 3 weeks to 2 months in your refrigerator. For the longest storage time, keep the outer leaves on the cabbage head. The outer leaves protect the inner leaves. Do not wash or trim the cabbage until you are ready to use it.
Cleaning Supplies
March 20 is the first day of spring, and it is time for some spring cleaning. Many cleaning products will be on sale all month long.
Craft Supplies
March is National Craft Month. Look for special deals, events, sales, and classes from your local craft stores, including Michaels and Hobby Lobby. Dollar Tree has expanded its craft sections in all of its stores and online. JoAnn’s has announced that it will be closing all of its stores and has already begun going out-of-business sales in all locations.
Luggage
March is between Christmas and the Summer vacation season, retailers mark down overstock and last year’s models on luggage, totes, and toiletry bags to make room for new summer stock.
St. Patrick’s Day
Leading up to St. Patrick’s Day, you will see “green Merchandise” sales. If you can wait, the actual “green” sales start on March 18th. Retailers and department stores heavily discount green-themed clothing, party supplies, and jewelry beginning the day after the holiday.
Ski & snowboard equipment
Ski and snowboard gear will be on sale this month, and stores will be trying to get rid of last year’s inventory. You can try waiting a few months to get better pricing, but there will be limited stock to choose from the longer you wait.
Vacuums
Spring cleaning sales start in March and continue through May. It’s a great month to find deals on Vacuum cleaners and Carpet Shampooers. Look for sales and coupons from Amazon, Target, and Walmart starting in March.
Bonus:
March 14: Pi Day
Many restaurants and grocery stores like to celebrate the occasion with deals on pies, pizzas, and pot pies. Check your local “Pie” places for specials.
