Best Time to Buy a Refrigerator

Refrigerator prices swing a lot through the year. If your old one hasn't died yet, timing the purchase can save hundreds.

Holiday sale weekends

The biggest discounts cluster around Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Black Friday / Cyber Monday.

New-model season

Manufacturers refresh line-ups in spring (roughly March–May). As new models arrive, last year's — often nearly identical — get marked down.

Floor models & open-box

Display units and open-box returns can be 20–40% off. Inspect for dents, confirm all parts are included, and check the warranty.

Month-end

Stores often chase monthly quotas, so the last few days of the month can be a good time to ask for a better price.
