五一假期大采購：應該在打折時買的5件東西
We assume that most of our readers are really smart shoppers, but there may be some of you who might be missing the mark of getting great deals only because of bad timing. Yes, we’re talking about the top 5 items you should buy only when there’s a sale going on.
我猜想大部分讀者肯定都是聰明的購物者，但也有些人會因爲時機不好錯過淘寶的絕好機會。下面就來說說最該在打折時買的五件東西。
1. Winter clothes
冬裝
Are you making the mistake of buying those expensive fur coats, wind cheaters, hoodies, wool caps, snow boots, hand gloves and all other winter accessories during winter time? That’s a terrible mistake to make folks. This is a top item that should be bought only during sales because its original price is really hefty. If you plan your shopping just a wee bit in advance of winter, you can save lots of money.
你是不是總在冬天購置那些昂貴的皮草外套、風衣、帽衫、羊毛帽、雪地靴，手套和其他冬季裝備呢？這可是很大的錯誤哦。這是最應該趁着打折買的東西，因爲原價往往都極高。如果在入冬前購置這些，你能省下一大筆錢。
2. Books
書籍
It’s unfortunate to say this but with all the Kindles and e-book readers of the world making their way in people’s palms, buying and reading books is becoming extinct. The reason why this item should be bought only during sales is because it will give you the best value for money. Also, with books causing storage problems and magazines being good only for one time reading, buying these items during sales is the best way to go.
真不想這麼說，但是在全世界範圍內，電子閱讀器和電子書已經逐漸佔領了市場，買書看書的人似乎越來越少。趁着打折的時候買書真的可以給你省下很多錢。另外，書的存放也是個大問題，比方說雜誌就是看完就扔的東西，所以還是在打折的時候囤積點吧。3. Cosmetics
化妝品
All the women out there will be flabbergasted when they see the kind of variety and the rates at which otherwise expensive cosmetics from brands like Dior, Maybelline, Revlon, M.A.C and the likes are available during sale time. Quit throwing off all your hard earned money on such expensive cosmetics and insist on buying these items only during sales to get great prices and bargains.
打折季時看到某些高端品牌，如迪奧、美寶蓮、露華濃、雅詩蘭黛等，品種多折扣低，所有的女人肯定都會目瞪口呆的。別再把辛苦賺的錢全部用來買昂貴的化妝品啦，憋到打折季，以最好的價錢入手吧。
4. Refurbed electronic appliances and gadgets
返修電子產品和小配件
Electronic appliances and gadgets are items you must buy only during sale time from the refurbed division because paying a large price tag for its original cost is just a waste of money. After holiday season when a lot of people return unwanted gifts, they all hit the refurbished section and the prices are mightily slashed down. Now, that’s a good enough reason for you to by these items only during the refurb sales, isn’t it?
入手電子產品和小配件，這些東西只有打折的時候從返修部入手最划算，能省不少錢。這樣比較下來，購買正價貨真的非常浪費錢哦。假期之後，很多人都會退掉他們不想要的禮物，這些禮物也都會存在返修區裏，這樣價格就會大幅下降。以返修價買到新貨，是不是絕好的省錢招數呀？
5. Alcohol
酒
Of course, we don’t expect you to buy your regular supplies of affordable wine and beer during sales. But friends, for those occasional parties, we’re sure you’d need to stock up with some good champagne, fine wine and heavily priced alcohol, right? We suggest you buy a stock of expensive alcohol only during sales time, especially in and around holiday season to get great rates.
我們當然不是讓你去在打折季購買那些平日常喝、價格實惠的紅酒或啤酒。但朋友別忘了，一些正規場合，你肯定得存一些好的香檳、紅酒以及高價格的酒類。我們建議你在打折季囤點高檔酒吧，節假日前後往往能拿到好折扣。
