About
We want to prove the shopping rules we all repeat.
Seasonal shopping advice is everywhere. We want to measure which advice is genuinely useful for UK consumers.
Best Time to Buy is an independent UK project collecting the data to find out. We’re starting with portable air conditioners after the latest rush for stock, then expanding as reliable retailer data becomes available.
Where we are today
This is an early-stage public beta with a small portable air-conditioner catalogue and limited history. We are preparing applications to affiliate networks, retailers and data providers for broader, authorised coverage. Partnership status will always be stated clearly.
Our commitments
- Every displayed price needs a source and timestamp.
- Out-of-stock labels require retailer evidence.
- Missing price history remains visibly missing.
- Paid relationships have no influence over the historical record or rankings.
Best Time to Buy UK operates independently and currently has no official retailer partners.
