Deal timing: When is the best time to buy a TV?
Jim Willcox
What’s the winning combination? The Super Bowl is an ideal event to highlight TVs  especially those with larger screens. Also  current TV models have been out for nearly a year by February  so there’s been a natural decrease in price  says Jim Willcox  senior electronics editor at Consumer Reports.
Scour social media. Retailers often reward their social media followers with notifications about sales. These act as another “tool in your arsenal” in your pursuit of a good deal   Willcox  says.
Look for a price match guarantee. Check a retailer’s price matching policy. Some stores will refund you the difference if an item drops in price within a certain window after purchase. The one caveat?  Willcox  says items purchased during sale periods like Black Friday are often excluded from price matching.

Electronics retailer Best Buy also said the lead-up to the Super Bowl and the holiday season are two of the best times to buy a TV. But if you’re shopping in a pinch  the store also offers a Weekly Ad and Deal of the Day section. If you can’t time your TV purchase  you might still be able to find a deal. Other retailers may have similar options — check their websites or follow their social media to get their deals.
