Appliances: With the exception of Refrigerators (see May), September and October are the best time to buy big appliances, since itâs when new models start coming out. You can get last yearâs leftovers for less. Bicycles: New models come out at the end of riding season, which is around September.
Hereâs the deal. In America, we are required to refrigerate eggs because of the factory farming practices. The USDA requires that an American egg be power-washed (because many factory farm chickens carry salmonella) and this washing removes the natural layer of protection that an egg has when it is laid.
1 If you've cooked eggs with a week's worth of lunches in mind, leave them in the shell.  2 The shell is the best form of protection a hard-cooked egg has, says American Egg Board spokeswoman Linda Braun. 3  Stored dry and refrigerated, the eggs will keep for about 1 week. Once peeled, they should be used immediately. 2  Keep in mind that, like their raw counterparts, hard-cooked eggs can absorb flavors and odors from foods on neighboring refrigerator shelves. 3  It's best to keep smelly foods like onions and cheese in airtight containers.
