Itching for new furniture? Wait until July to get the biggest discount of the entire year. Here's what you should be buying this summer and why.

I'm not afraid to say I'm one Frugal Franny. I like to save money. I think I'm with the rest of the working class that say, I work hard for my money and I want to save as much as possible.

Thankfully, places like LifeHacker exist to keep my spending in check.

Did you know that there is actually a best time of the year to purchase large ticket items to get the best deal?

Here's what you should buy this summer to get the biggest bang for your buck:

JUNE

  • Dishware: Wedding season brings good deals to everyone!
  • Gym Memberships and Equipment: By June, gyms are eager for members as New Year's resolutions have been forgotten.
  • Tools: Hello Father's Day deals!
  • Computers: Both Intel and AMD get ready to release their new stuff in July, so you can get a great deal. (You can also get a great deal in August, more on that in a minute.)

JULY

  • Furniture: New furniture comes out in August, so expect big discounts on last year's styles.
  • Home Decor: TONS of home decor goes on sale in the middle of wedding season. Thanks brides and grooms!)
  • Video Games: Big online sales happen when it comes to PC games. If you are a more traditional console player, you are best to wait for a few months after a game has been released.

AUGUST

  • Linens & Storage Containers: College kids need alarm clocks, bed sheets, towels, plastic bins and more to make sure dorm life is a success. Rack in the savings for yourself too!
  • Office Furniture: Kids need a place to do their homework and you need a home office. It's a win-win for back to school deals.
  • Kids' Clothing: Kids will want to look good... when going back to school! (Seeing a trend here?)
  • School Supplies: Grab them now during back to school sales. As an added tip, get additional supplies in September when stores are trying to clear out the leftover.
  • Swimsuits: Everyone is clearing out their inventory to make room for fall clothing, so get great discounts now.
  • Computers: Back to school sales, need I say more?

See, there is a great time to buy! Now enjoy these savings all summer long!
