This is what to buy and what to skip in September
You'll want to hold off on Halloween costumes, but you're in luck if you want to travel.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Just ahead of Labor Day weekend, there are several sales happening that will make you want to spend money.

Here's a list of things you should and should not buy in September:

Mattress

Since it's a holiday weekend, many companies are offering significant discounts and freebies on furniture and appliances.

iPhone

Apple is rumored to release a new iPhone, which means retailers will likely discount older models.

Plane ticket

CheapAir.com predicts flights for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's will increase after September.

Television

Don't buy a TV this month because you'll get a much better deal in November during Black Friday sales or in early February around Super Bowl.

Halloween costumes and fall decor

Stores will start tempting you, but try to wait until October when Halloween sales will begin.
