Have you ever gone out to purchase something for your home, only to see a few weeks later that the same item you purchased was on sale for $200 less than what you paid for it? You then kick yourself for not waiting a while longer to purchase that item.
Most stores have a pattern of how and when they place certain items on sale. Some of these patterns make obvious sense, such as corresponding with holidays. Others have no rhyme or reason to them.
