Unpredictable? Welcome to the Cowboy State!

Buy tickets to warmer climates for our coming winter? Forecasters and almanacs say the Wyoming winter ahead will be colder and snowier than usual, so warm climate getaways wouldn't be a bad idea. 

Cruises in the Caribbean are always SUPER cheap in October.  But that's partly because the weather's kind of unpredictable. Unpredictable? Welcome to the Cowboy State!

Other October buys include new cars. Most of the dealerships started selling their 2015 models last month, so the prices on their 2014 models should go down now.

iPads.  Apple is expected to announce their new iPad models later this month.  And in the past, older models have always dropped in price about 20% when that happens.

Camping gear goes on sale because camping season is pretty much over.  The only things that DON'T go on sale are cold-weather things, like down sleeping bags.

Pizza.  It's not clear why, but pizza places LOVE offering deals this time of year.  Maybe because of football?  In 2013, Domino's, Pizza Hut, and Papa John's all offered their best coupons in October.

As far as the WORST things to buy this month, stay away from appliances . . . cold-weather clothing . . . electronics . . . big-screen TVs . . . and laptops.  All of those things go on sale NEXT month for Black Friday, according to Deal News / Business Insider.
