January

january sales

Retailers usually start offering great deals on winter apparel and holiday decorations after the holidays to make room for new inventory. Aside from clearance sales, the first month of the year is known for its white sales. Back in the day, only bedspreads, duvets, pillows, and other bedroom essentials had discounted prices during white sales. Now, many household items, including bath essentials, get massive discounts, too.

With Super Bowl season right around the corner, you’re going to see incredible deals on TV sets. If you’re looking to upgrade your home theater system, January is one of the best times of the year to do so.

January Products on Sale

✓ Winter Apparel

Instead of shopping for winter gear in the fall, you can do it in January. To clear their racks of heavy coats, sweaters, scarves, and snow boots, retailers will offer winter and outdoor apparel at lower prices after the holiday rush. Macy’s and Nordstrom, for instance, are offering clearance sales on winter apparel with 20% to 80% discounts.

✓ Health & Fitness Gear

Fueled by the “New Year, new me” mindset, several people usually start new exercise regimens and wellness habits at the beginning of every year. We’ll be seeing discounts starting from $30 to $100+ on health and fitness gear, from kettlebells and dumbbells to muscle stimulators.

✓ TVs

The Super Bowl LVIII takes place on a Sunday, February 11. In the weeks leading up to that date, mid-range and high-end TV sets are going to go on sale to make room for new iterations coming out later in the year. Currently, 4K OLED TVs, like the LG CX Series, will have about a $450 drop-in price.

✓ Household Lines

From beddings and tablecloths to towels, household linens will go on sale in January as department stores and home goods retailers scramble to sell excess stock. You can enjoy up to 30% off on bedding and bath linens at Home Depot.
