SUNDAY 

  • airline tickets – are you planning on going somewhere? Because that’s the best day to buy airline tickets, as the Airlines Reporting Corp, which is responsible for processing the tickets for travel agencies, says. Some people even say that if you buy a plane ticket on a Sunday, the discount might be somewhere between 19% and 27%;
  • grocery shopping – if you want to stock up your fridge and your pantry, Sunday is a good day to do it. According to some data, plenty of grocery stores and drugstores have their weekly ads and discounts on Sundays or Wednesdays. So if you want to get all those deals and save some extra cash, schedule your grocery shopping for Sunday, Monday, or Wednesday;
  • gas – you might think that people go out and about during the weekend, so the gas demand would be higher, as well as the prices. But that’s actually not true, because according to some studies, Sundays are the perfect days to fill up your tank.

MONDAY

  • electronics – in conformity with Ted Nguyen, the co-founder of a shopping site for men, called Faveable.com, Monday is a great day to buy TVs, computers, and tablets. He continued by saying that Tuesdays and Thursdays are also good for this type of shopping, and you can actually save up to 10% or even 20% extra cash;
  • cars – might be a myth, might not, but many people say that salespeople who didn’t succeed over the weekend are more motivated to make a sale on a Monday. Who knows, maybe they will give you a discount?

TUESDAY

  • movies – if there’s a movie you want to see, but you think that the price for the ticket isn’t worth it, you should go to the cinema on a Tuesday and it will be cheaper. Several movie theaters have discounts on Tuesdays and you might be surprised to see that the room won’t be crowded at all;
  • kids’ meals at restaurants – if you were planning on treating your grandchildren to their favorite meals, a Tuesday is a good day to do it, because many restaurants have discounts or even kids-eat-free specials.
