Well the first month of the new year is over. Time to start thinking of what to but in February!

1. Canned Foods-February is National Canned Food Month so stock up on canned foods (chili, fruits, vegetables, soups)! Check out store circulars for the best prices. I have added some high value coupons to add to the savings!

2. Hot Breakfast Foods-February is also National Hot Breakfast Month! Look for sale on frozen waffle, frozen pancakes, breakfast sausages, pancake mix, and syrup.

3. Super Bowl Foods- Both before and after the big game. Stores will have sales on all of party foods like chips, crackers, dips and soda. Look for football themed paper goods and accents after the game!

4. New Year’s Clearance– Of course there may be some party hats and noise makers at 90% off still around so keep a look out. Also, this is the time to buy calendars, planners and organizational materials at a deep discount!

5. Winter Apparel– Soon stores will be putting out their spring and summer styles so they want to clear their shelves for winter coats, gloves, hats and scarves as well as winter clothing! Stock up and but for next year!

6. After Valentine’s Day Sales– Starting February 15th, you will have a chance to get those V-Day items on sale! Look for chocolates, stuffed animals, candles, valentines (grab a few boxes for the kiddos for next year) and décor. If you want to wait until stores discount to 75% and 90% off, go for it. Just remember stores will clear these times way fast than the after Christmas sales so keep a close eye for mark downs!

7. Chinese Food Items– Look for sales on soy sauce, teriyaki sauce and other Asian foods in anticipation of Chinese New Year!
