Here are some items that you should probably look into buying this month, because they go on sale in April.

  1. Sneakers - A lot of people buy them for spring, so stores and websites get pretty competitive with prices. They also might still be trying to sell off stock from last year.
  2. Jackets - They start going on sale this month, so stores can make more room for lighter, summer clothes.
  3. Paint and other home improvement supplies - The weather's getting nicer, so stores really start to push that stuff. Home Depot and Lowe's both have "Spring Black Friday" sales right now. Some stuff is marked down 35%.
  4. Pots, pans, and other household items - Mother's Day is coming up, and so is wedding season. So stores try to take advantage of it by dropping their prices.
  5. A tune-up for your car - It's National Car Care Month, so a lot of mechanics offer deals on tune-ups, oil changes, and new tires.
  6. Last-minute vacations - April is considered an 'off-season month', because it's right after winter, but before summer... and Easter is right in the middle of it. So you might be able to get a pretty good deal on flights and hotels.
