Default Timing of Purchase

Everyone believes going in on the last day of the month could result in a good deal.

Is there additional benefits in buying on the last day of the Year?

or do they work on a monthly cycle?

Curious what people's experiences were.

Thanks!

I bought at 10 PM on the last day of the month. And played a little "hard to get", like I wasn't completely interested, and would've been just as happy walking away without making a purchase. I got an unusually good deal. $3200 off sticker for an IS250, with the only option on the car being 18" wheels (chromed)/summer tires.
