Holiday weekends: President's Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Veterans Day and Thanksgiving weekend (which generally begins with Black Friday and ends with Cyber Monday) tend to be when you'll see sales on large appliances.
What month is the best to buy appliances? November typically offers the best sales as Black Friday and Cyber Monday bookend Thanksgiving Day weekend. However, it's worth checking in September and October when prices drop on last year's models to make way for the new ones.
Look for sales during major holidays, utilize promotions and rebates, and consider financing options to spread out the cost. Shopping clearance items or hot buys can also lead to substantial savings.

And, he adds, discounts aren't limited to a certain kind of appliance then; deals run "across the board." Appliances also go on sale during the President's Day and Memorial Day holiday weekends.
Mention competitors' prices: Let the salesperson know that you've been comparison shopping, and mention some of the deals you've seen elsewhere. Ask for other discounts and freebies: If they're not budging on the price, ask them to provide free delivery, installation, and haul-away (if they don't offer it already).
