March Organization

Now that the weather is warming up, it’s time to get things done inside and out.

1. Inside the House ~ Cleaning

Now that winter is pretty much behind us, let’s try to relax and focus on organizing! Here we go…. Now remember there is no shame or guilt on Tip Junkie. These are simply things you can do to get ahead of the game. Do what you can. Some of these will be repeated once again throughout the year, so if you don’t get to it in March don’t even stress! {knuckle bumps} Here are a few tasks that will make a big difference if you get them done throughout the year:

Annual Maintenance:

Wall Furnace, clean grills
Range Hood: clean grease filter
Clean out kitchen and bathroom cabinets
Detectors: replace batteries

2. Outside the House ~ Home Maintenance

Since many areas of the country have snow, I’ve kept things super simple since outside maintenance can be difficult.

Inspect roof and chimney
Clean gutters and downspouts
Inspect siding, repair if needed
Inspect exterior caulking
Inspect windowsills, doorsills, thresholds
Inspect window and doors, install screens
Touch up peeling or damaged paint
Fertilize lawn

4. Sale Items:

This month is a great time to buy items that go on sale in March for discounted prices.

Frozen Foods ~ March is National Frozen Foods month, so you’ll find deals and coupons on frozen foods all month.

Gardening Tools ~ Large home improvement stores typically discount gardening tools like rakes and hoes in anticipation of spring gardening, so if you need new tools or to replace old ones, March is a great time.

Cruises ~ We’ve read that March is known as the travel agent black Friday month, and March is the “wave season”. Good to know, right?

Gift Cards ~ December is the best time to purchase gift cards, but the second best time to find gift card offers is March.

Ski Equipment ~ March is the beginning of discount season for winter gear and apparel, so now is the time to buy winter apparel and equipment. Especially those high ticket items!

Luggage ~ Luggage often goes on sale in March in preparation for Spring Break. Whether you go on vacation for Spring Break or wait for summer, now is the time to get a new set if needed!

Outdoor Furniture ~ Retailers are looking towards Spring so large outdoor items can usually be found at a discount!

TIP: Hold off on buying Android phones, and clothing in general. You’ll find better deals later in the year.
