BY LERA RYAN FAMILY RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SPECIALIST Post a SALE sign in a store window and soon the store is crowded with shoppers. Many consumers have trouble resisting an item which appears to be selling at a reduced price. When is a sale a sale? There are two criteria. Firstly there must be a significant reduction from the everyday price of the item, and secondly that lower price must be available for a limited period of time. Some items are listed at the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (or list price) but regularly sell for a lesser price. That lesser price is the regular price or the discount price but is not a sale price. If that regular price drops for a few days up to 30 days that new price is a sale price. If an advertisement lists an appliance for $40 and says compar­ ableprice, $75, the consumer must carefully examine the selection of appliances. It will be necessary to compare items and be knowledge­ ale of the products and prices. There are traditional sales which lower prices on certain products at particular times of year. Some items you could expect to be at reduced prices during May include air conditioners, bedding, outdoor furniture, hand appliances and televisions. In June, look for outdoor furniture, garden sup­ plies, power tools, storm windows and doors. There is no substitute for being a good consumer. Remember a bargain is a bargain only if you need the item and can afford it.
