When To Find Good Laptops At Good Prices

By Matthew Kerridge

Christmas is coming up and everyone is looking for the best deals around. It seems amazing that black Friday is only a little more than a week away. If laptops are on your Christmas shopping list then here are a few pointers on finding the best deals.

While there are minor differences between computer brands there is no one best brand. In all actuality they are pretty much the same. Paying more for a supposed brand name just doesn't make sense when you can get the same options cheaper with a different brand.

There are a few things you should always look at when buying a laptop. Things like memory and hard drive space can make a big difference in your computer and how it runs. Hard drive space not only helps it run faster and better but allows you more room for all of the programs you needs. While you don't need to pay hundreds of dollars more to get the most memory and hard dive space available, you should make sure that it will be adequate for your needs.

Other things to consider are the extras. These are things like DVD ROM/Burner and weather or not it has a wireless network card built in. Things like this can cost a lot if you need to buy them separate so if you can find one with the options you want for just a few dollars more then you can be sure you are getting a good deal.

To find out what stores will have what you need, you can check online or in your local newspaper. They will have advertisements for most of the stores in your area and you will know exactly where you need to go to get what you need. Keep in mind that they usually have a limited number of the sale items so you will want to get there as early as possible.

The best deals really don't come until after Christmas. This is when all of the stores put merchandise on clearance that they didn't sell during the holiday rush. You can sometimes get things like laptops for as much as half off the regular price. If you are on an extremely tight budget then you may consider online auction sites as well.

If you do the research and know what you need in a laptop it will make shopping much easier and time efficient. With all of the sales you should know what is actually a good deal and what you can get much cheaper else where. You should also consider things like your stores return policy and warranties if some thing happens. - 31403
