One thing I do to combat this is I make a list of stuff I'd like to buy at a discount in early summer and keep up with the prices every two weeks or so until black Friday. This helps me know if a discount is real or not. I even made a power automate script to check the prices for me
If you shop from Amazon: camelcamelcamel.com
I very rarely do. But I use it to get a general idea of the price of items that come up later and I haven't tracked that early.
