Frugal Calender for purchases and other things?
Has anyone made a calender or kind of database that will tell you when is the best time to purchase something (or do anything else that is frugal)?
For instance, the best time to buy a car, what fruits and vegetables will be in season, when the best time is to buy winter clothes, summer clothes, etc.

I posted a thread before on fruits and vegetables.
[ame="http://www.frugalvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=93652"]Cheapest Fruits and Vegetables[/ame]
I had a list of when to get the best bargains when shopping for certain items. I'll have to see if I can find it. LOL!

Thanks Emily!
If you all could make a "frugal calendar," what would it look like?
Does anyone know the exact week of the year that is best to buy a car?

I'm not sure. I know it is in September. A salesman once told us that they have or are about to receive the new cars at this time and they really lower the prices on the year before models.
