October kicks off the major holiday season so saving money become super important. It’s much better to start of the holidays with cash to spare. Here are some good October deals…

Plants, trees, and gardening supplies continue to go down in price during October. People aren’t buying as many gardening items including plants, so nursery and home improvement stores sell this gear for less.
The last of those school supplies and calendars for the school year go on sale big time. Take a look at the clearance racks at any office store for amazing sales on this sort of gear.
Vacations usually go down in price now, because kids just went back to school, the big holiday travel season (i.e Thanksgiving and Christmas) haven’t hit yet, so folks just don’t travel like they were traveling in the summer. This means big savings on theme park and other holiday locations.
Big appliances usually debut in early fall and to make room on the floor, older models get marked down.
Consumer Reports notes that October is a great time of year to get deals on bikes, gas grills, winter coats, and digital cameras.
