A higher education blog about news, humor, advice, and opinion on education, college degrees, university life and careers.

Hello, frugal (read: cheap-ass and poor) college students! September, the month of the best laptop prices, is almost over. Buy it now if you’ll be needing one in the next year. Or you can pay attention for the particular laptop you want to become super cheap the week before the spankin’ new model hits the market.

If you’re a planner and would like to mark your calendar now for the next twelve months’ worth of strategic shopping, feel free to use the jelly-filled orbs in your sockets to scan WiseBread’s Buying Calendar. It’ll save you more money than those cinder-block shelves and eating all that ramen.
