TECH TIPS: Find the Best Electronic and Tech Deals

Every technophile knows that buying the latest and greatest tech gadgets is no cheap hobby. With new products coming out seemingly every day, I’m looking out for your bottom line by keeping all the best tech deals and coupons right here in one place.

When to Shop for Electronics Deals

Black Friday, along with the rest of the holiday shopping season, is known for electronics deals, especially televisions. But there are still great deals to be had during the rest of the year. Digital cameras and other small consumer electronics often see price drops in March and April, since new models are typically released at the end or beginning of the year. Prices on small electronics tend to drop during Labor Day sales, as well. For new computers and tablets, check out mid-summer and back to school sales. Additionally, if you’re looking for the latest tech gadget deals, like Google Home deals or Amazon Echo deals, you may want to wait for a new model to be released. You’ll likely find deep discounts on the older model a few months after the new release.

Who Has the Best Tech Deals?

The best place to buy is going to depend on what you’re buying, but for most electronics, especially computers, tablets and TVs, you can’t go wrong with Amazon or Best Buy, especially with Best Buy’s price matching policy. Costco often has great prices on televisions, while B&H is a great site for digital cameras and accessories. If you’re in the market for computer components, Newegg or Fry’s often have affordable prices. Whatever you’re buying, be sure to sign up for the store email or newsletter whenever possible to get exclusive deals and discounts sent right to your inbox.
