6 Things on Deep Discount in June

Friday is National Doughnut Day! Plus, Get free ice cream, free fishing, cheap flowers for your yard or garden and more exciting deals.

It’s June and that means the Memorial Day sales are winding down, and we’re still one month away from July’s Amazon Prime Day savings spectacular. So we’ll forgive you for thinking this month is just an afterthought in the savings calender. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth!

The sixth month in the calendar year ushers in both the official start of summer and a slew of savings that comes with it. June has something for everyone whether you’re talking about spring clearance, Father’s Day deals or some of the semi-annual retail sales that traditionally happen this month.

Here Are the Best June Deals

Food

June has a couple of notable food holidays that usually offer up the opportunity to get some discounted or free food.

For instance, June 3 is National Doughnut Day when many sellers will offer a free doughnut. Interestingly, this is actually the first of two such holidays in the calendar year. (Editor’s note: Read the “hole” story about why we have two doughnut holidays here.)

Meanwhile, June 21 marks the beginning of summer. On that day, several ice cream chains have been known to offer customers a free scoop.

Father’s Day Clearance

After we honor the fathers in our lives on Sunday, June 19, the opportunities for savings really begin. You can typically find cologne, ties, belts and other gift sets that went unsold ahead of the holiday on deep discount after the 19th.

Flower Bulbs

June is a month when you’ll find opportunities to add a little green to your yard while keeping a little extra green in your wallet. Take flower bulbs, for instance.

Planting bulbs is best done in the fall or early spring. That’s when you’ll typically find them rolling out to the big-box home improvement stores and other retailers.

Now that we’re past planting season, this is an ideal month to buy leftover flower bulbs and store them in a cool, dry place until the fall.

Free Fishing Days

National Fishing and Boating Week will take place on June 4-12 this year. During the weeklong celebration, a number of states have select days when you can fish without a license. See what your state is doing by visiting TakeMeFishing.org.

Spring Clothes Clearance

Here’s another timely calendar play: As we head into summer, most spring clothing that’s still left on store racks is on extra-deep discount.

But it’s not just light jackets and T-shirts that are on sale this month. You’ll also find workout gear is a steal of a deal. People tend to buy this stuff in spring when the weather first gets warmer, and now it’s time for retailers to clear the remnants out.

Assorted Holiday Savings Opportunities

This month is also one of two times throughout the year when Bath & Body Works hosts its semi-annual sale; if the historical pattern holds again this year, look for this one to get underway around the middle of the month.

June also boasts National Eyewear Day (June 6); National Splurge Day (June 18); and National Sunglasses Day (June 27), among others.

Coming Soon: July Deals

As you can see, June is a big month for savings. But you can convincingly make the case that July will be even bigger.

Leading the charge next month will be Amazon Prime Day. The two-day sales celebration returns to its original July slot this year after a couple of years of playing calendar hopscotch thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re still waiting on word from Amazon about the exact date in July 2022. (We believe Amazon Prime Day will be on July 18 and 19 this year, but that’s just our prediction.)

Meanwhile, other retailers, including Best Buy, Target and Walmart, have been known to offer their own sales to compete with Amazon leading up to and during the Prime Day cycle.

So that phenomenon alone makes the coming month a biggie. Add in assorted “Christmas in July” promotions, and you can see why July is likely to pack a money-saving punch for your wallet.

Final Thoughts

Summer is heating up and so are the deals — with the added promise of even more to come. And let’s not forget that right now is a great time to start picking the best fresh, local produce at a farmer’s market near you.

We will be happy to hear your thoughts
