Money Saving Tip #28: Buy Your Jacket in the Summer

If you are in the market for a new winter coat or a fall jacket, consider buying it in the spring and summer. On the opposite end of the spectrum, buy your shorts, t-shirts, and swimsuits in the fall and winter.

Your savings could be astronomical. I bought a tan trench coat and 2 sweaters yesterday (June 11). The original price was $159.85 for all 3 items. I paid $41.99. My savings were about 74%. I know I will have to wait until the cooler months to wear them, but the savings will be worth the wait.
