Before I start, I have a confession to make. Everything that I wear, has been purchased at a sale. And most of the time, I’m able to purchase at a price that you will never imagine. For instance, I purchased a sweater jacket that costs around $430 during normal days. A few months later, it went on sale, and I purchased it for $125. And this is just one of the clothes that I purchase at a much lower price.

I have to say that I have learned a few things after shopping almost regularly and then noticing these things only to adjust my shopping habits. And to be very honest, it is much harder to set time aside for shopping during the weekends.

And if you ask those fashion editors, they all will say the same thing. That they spend a huge amount of time surfing other clothes online. And it doesn’t matter whether they are purchasing those clothes or not, they are still surfing them. This is because they are always looking for some ways to get those insider ways to shop smartly, and know those secrets to get discounts on almost any type of clothing that they want.

So without any further due, here are those secrets that those fashion editors did not want to keep it to themselves:

You Should Know When To Shop

Those shopping freaks will always tell you that you will only be able to get the best deals on either sale days or on Black Friday. While I too agree with the deals that you get on Black Friday, there are other times when you will be able to get a much lower price than that.

What? Yes, during early January and late June, you will be able to get clothes for much lower than those Black Friday sales. So remember that Sale Shop is not when most people think, it is the time that I mentioned.

Buddies Always Help

You will notice one thing that you need the most in your life, and that is networking. You just can’t get enough of this. So the next time that you go shopping for that local store, have a friendship with that local store manager. Buddy up with him, and notice what their inventory schedule is. You can simply ask for that.

This will help you save huge chunks of money, because during the end of the season, or when they stock new inventory, they will be putting that old inventory for sale. Some stores even are discounted as much as 50% during these types of sales.

So, remember, the store manager should be your new friend.

Find Those Coupons

I can’t emphasize this, but you need to find that Macy’s $10 coupon and others. But the most effective use of those coupon codes is when you use them at a proper time. Most of those coupon codes have expiry dates of 3 weeks to 3 months from the day they were released. So the best time to use them is when the products go on sale. This will slash the prices even lower for you.

Get Those Updates

This is the most important thing. You should know immediately when your favourite items are going on sale because you won’t always be checking that. You can either sign up for the store’s newsletter or get a push notification.
