Learnvest: What to buy in October

I'm re-posting part of Learnvest's article on October Financial To-Dos. If you are interested in making any big purchases in appliances or clothing, now is the time to do it as Columbus day approaches and merchants are trying to sell-off old material to make room for new stuff.

WHAT TO BUY IN OCTOBER:

	Jeans: Anything that didn’t sell during back-to-school season will now be available for less
	Health insurance: If you haven’t already signed up for a health plan for next year, open enrollment season may be your only opportunity
	Big appliances: Retailers are making room for new appliances like fridges and washing machines, so this is a great time to buy last year’s models; aim to shop over Columbus Day weekend
	Swimsuits: Swimwear can easily be as much as 90% off as retailers try to get rid of it—a great chance to stock up for next year
	Gas grills: Pick these up on sale now that the summer season has ended
