Advice from Helen Sorensen of Iowa State University on evaluating sales: understand reasons for discounts, know regular stock and prices, and judge quality to save money. Plan sale purchases and avoid impulsive buys.
Plan purchases for items you need soon or soon after. Watch sale patterns, delay if possible for better prices, and shop early for best selection. Examine every item for flaws, noting that sale items may be nonreturnable. Consider seconds carefully and assess style and future use before buying. Add cleaning or repair costs to the price to judge value.
