Go snag some March deals

Void of any major holidays, March isn’t known for its sales the way other months are—we’re looking at you, Easter and Memorial Day sales! But who couldn’t use a little retail therapy right now, as we hit the one-year anniversary of COVID-19 entering our lives? If you know what to look for, you can score some pretty huge deals this month—or any time of year if you know the best cheap buys by the month.

Note: Prices listed were accurate as of press time; pricing fluctuations may occur.

Missed your chance to score a post-Christmas TV deal? It’s not too late. March is actually the second-best month of the year to buy a new TV (November is the first), says Julie Ramhold, consumer analyst with DealNews.com. “The reason we tend to see so many TV deals in March is that manufacturers are getting ready to release new models, so retailers are trying to clear out old stock,” Ramhold says. “It also could have to do with the fact that March isn’t exactly known for deals—it’s kind of lacking in that department, so some stores will offer deals just to boost sales during a slow time.” While prices won’t be as great as those around Black Friday, you can still expect to see name-brand 50-inch sets from $300 at stores like Best Buy. But keep an eye out at Dell, as well, because it often bundles gift cards with its TV deals, which makes the sets even more appealing, Ramhold says. One to keep an eye on is the Samsung 75″ Class 7 Series LED 4k Smart Tizen TV that’s currently marked down by $50. Consider picking up a universal remote that pairs with over 650,000 devices to go with your new TV.

While it’s not on sale yet, the experts at Nerd Wallet say that March is the best time to invest in a new grill, before the prices jump up for the season.

March 14, it’s National Pi Day; while math enthusiasts will be celebrating with some fun equations, the rest of us should pop on masks and race to the supermarket for some great deals on actual pies. Many supermarkets and bakeries will be selling those lovely pies for just $3.14 (or they’re taking $3.14 off the price of their pies) to honor National Pi Day. Last year, Goldbelly had 40 percent off their pies for most of the month through the 14th (we’re eyeing the Famous Key West Key Lime Pie), while Uber Eats offered $3.14 off, and Whole Foods was selling their large bakery pies, like the French apple tart for $3.14 off.
