Winter is almost here and there aren’t always a lot of fresh fruits that are in season at this time. However, you will find plenty of sales on winter squashes.
Best Vegetables To Buy In November:
pumpkins
winter squash
sweet potatoes
I like to buy pumpkins after Halloween to freeze. Pumpkins are pretty easy to puree and freeze to use all year long. You can see how to do that here.
Sweet potatoes are really cheap right before Thanksgiving. They usually will last about a month if stored in a cool place. We love to stock up and make sweet potato biscuits around the holidays.
Best Fruits To Buy In November:
Cranberries
Pears
Cranberries will be really cheap around the holidays so stock up on frozen cranberries if you use them regularly.
Foods To Buy In November
The holidays are a popular time to do some baking so we will see so many fantastic deals on baking goods. Flour, sugar, yeast, chocolate chips, oil, etc. will all be on sale this November.
I buy all of my baking supplies in November when prices are at the lowest. Check the shelf life of the baking supplies, but most will last a year or longer.
Grocery stores will also be having fantastic deals on canned goods. You can stock up on canned soups and stews for an easy meal.
Canned vegetables will also be on sale. You can stock up on green beans, corn, and other veggies right around Thanksgiving. Canned vegetables won’t be this cheap until Easter so stock up.

We have Black Friday directly following Thanksgiving. Although not everything you see is a deal, there are usually some good deals on electronics.
