How To Find the Best Labor Day Fitness Sales
There are plenty of ways you can save money on workout equipment this Labor Day. To maximize your savings, follow the tips below.
Make a Plan
If you’re a fitness junkie like me, you’ll want to buy all the things at once, especially when brands offer steep discounts. But you likely also have bills to pay and families and pets to care for, and you probably want to keep some money stashed away for unexpected emergencies.
It helps to make a plan and stick to it when plotting your purchases during shopping holidays. This way, you won’t fall victim to “shiny object syndrome” and spend more money than you budgeted for. You’ll also be less likely to experience buyer’s remorse when a new exercise bike or barbell that you really didn’t need shows up at your door.
Research the Pricing History
Retailers are notorious for inflating the original prices of their products right before a major holiday to make their discounts look even better. To ensure you get a good deal, keep tabs on your desired item’s price in the weeks leading up to Labor Day. If it doesn’t change but then drops by a significant percentage for Labor Day weekend, you’re probably getting a good deal. But if the price goes up by 20 percent the week before Labor Day and then the brand offers a 20 percent discount for the holiday weekend, you won’t save any money.
CamelCamelCamel is an excellent price history checker for products on Amazon. Chrome extensions like Honey or SlickDeals work well for Amazon and other retailers. Honey allows you to create Droplists of the items you want to track and will send you notifications when prices drop. SlickDeals functions similarly and lets you create alerts for your desired products. SlickDeals doesn’t provide historical prices, though — this extension only starts tracking an item’s price once you create an alert for it.
