Fan season?

I was thinking about going to get a couple fans this weekend. Well that made me think of the day before P and I got married my sister and I went to buy a fan and we asked a lady where they were she replied "we do not carry them outside of fan season". I thought you could get fans all year. Has anyone else heard of this fan season?

Re: Fan season?

  • No.  But you know those fans that have no blades and are just circular?  Those are intriguing. 
    Shot first, questions later.
  • I've never heard it referred to by that, but I know fans are more readily available during a certain (hot seasons) time.

    Though, Best Buy carries fans year round.

    THE DYSON!! I was absolutely amazed when I saw it at Best Buy. 

    The Dr. I work for just bought one. Why he would spend $300 on a fan I have no clue, but it's cool!

  • Yeah, where were you from? I've never heard that term. I think the lady was making it up, but it isn't surprising that stores will pull things like (summer like items) that from the shelves to make room for things that will sell in a cooler season.

    I've never heard of it either but when we lived in WA it was hard to find a fan in the winter. Ours died and we like it for the white noise.

  • A few months ago I tried finding a fan to send H because it gets so hot in his rack, and the worker at Target told me they wouldn't have them in until closer to spring, since at the time heaters were more in demand.  But it's pretty much common sense, they'll sell heaters in the fall and winter and fans in the spring and summer.

  • Never heard of fan season either but I have seen Home Depot carry a ton of fans.
  • Amazon has everything all of the time.

  • I am from south Louisiana and I have always been able to go get one during the winter. We continued to look for one because we thought she was kidding but she wasn't

    Thats why we wanted it. My whole family uses them to sleep. Lol I have grown out of it since moving here when it wasn't fan season and couldn't get one :/

  • Our Target has them all year round. They have a smaller selection when it is not super hot but they always have some.
