This is no ordinaryholiday season. Deals are plentiful and it’s not even Thanksgiving week yet. One example: The energy saving LED Christmas lights rarely went on sale until December, but this week Target, Fleet Farm and Menards have them on sale. Costco and Sam’s Club have low prices too.  Why go with expensive LEDs? They’re safer and more economical because they burn cooler. I don’t know if they last longer. The LED lights this year offer more choices. If you want the warmer, amber color white lights, look for “warm white” rather than the “cool white” which are bluish.

In the past I’ve said that LEDs sell out long before the after Christmas sales, but bargain hunters on Dec. 26 may be in luck this year. heck, you may be able to get them for 50 percent off Thanksgiving week this year. 

If you’re fortunate to have a job this holiday season and you’ve got cash to spend, this is going to be an ADVANTAGE: CONSUMER kind of Christmas.  Â
