22 best September sales: Deals on travel packages, home goods and more


This expert-recommended moisturizer for people with dry skin is formulated with hyaluronic acid, as well as other moisturizing and barrier-forming ingredients. Neutrogena says it absorbs quickly so you can wear it under makeup.
Shoppers looking for a discount on tech this month should look at previous generations of models, rather than those that are newly released, according to Kristin McGrath, shopping expert at coupon finder RetailMeNot. However, if you really want the latest model and are willing to pay full price, McGrath said September will be a good time to buy “before supply chains and high holiday demand creep in.”
Retailers are expected to start releasing their annual toy lists this month, which means possibly announcing special discount events to drive pre-holiday hype. Much like the tech this month, shoppers may not find deals on new or popular toys, but they may have an easier time buying these toys before demand increases around the holidays.
Even though peak travel season has come to a close, those looking ahead to their next getaway will find good deals on vacation packages, cruises and hotel rooms this month, as travel providers try to entice travelers during the down-season ahead of the holidays.
September isn’t the best time to find clothing deals on fall and winter apparel, as they’re just hitting the racks. Wait a little longer — shoppers will begin to see deals on cold weather clothing towards the end of the fall season.
For those looking for more options in deals on tech and TVs, McGrath advised waiting for holiday sales when pretty much everything will be discounted.
McGrath noted early Black Friday deals could start as early as mid-October, so any shoppers holding off for better and widespread discounts will not have to wait much longer to see those sales.
