Holiday Shopping... For Insurance?

The shopping season is upon us and people all around the world have got their lists made and are beginning to find deals in retail stores, as well as online. But there are more deals to be found than just your 70% off electronics.

It may sound strange, but this is actually the time to be shopping around for insurance. Health and life insurance policies can be shopped any time of the year (though enrollment periods may apply) and few people are aware that insurance rates can be considerably lower at this time of year. The reason for this is because no one is necessarily thinking about insurance right now.

The truth of the matter is that the fourth quarter is about to end for all companies, including insurance companies. Eager to make sales before the beginning of the year, many insurance companies offer their own deals on new policies during the holiday season.
