Definitely wait until Black Friday, End-of-the-Year sales where they offer steep discounts on visually imperfect pieces. More on reddit.com

Holiday sales the past few years have been pretty hit or miss. Before covid I feel like the sales were better. Interestingly, I noticed Williams Sonoma dropping prices on Staub around Christmas (I mean like, right before Dec 25th and the week between Christmas and New Years) so you have to keep your eyes peeled. Not sure what it will be like this year though. Zwilling used to do the 4 qt cocottes with the iron lids for $99 on black Friday. But I think last year it was glass lids 😑 and they were like $129 or something. As far as 7 quarts go, I'd say if you see a decent deal somewhere, jump on it because they're a popular workhorse size. Like the Amazon deal you saw for $220 would have been what I'd consider a good price for that pot. I paid full price for mine but have no regrets. More on reddit.com

Well, I’m disappointed with the sales this year compared to the last couple of years when there was the $99 4 quart (24cm) deal in the states. I would’ve loved to grab one for a friend of mine, but the price isn’t right now. Nothing has caught my eye yet and the best so far seems to be in the US: $129/$179 for 4qt. Glass lid various colors (Zwilling website and others like sur la table). Unfortunately it’s more $$ than last year and I much prefer the classic lid. Hopefully something better will pop up.. but a bit of good news is it looks like my favorite color La Mer is back in stock! As for Germany, disappointing as always despite being right by France… no great deals, but if you’re looking near the Munich area I can recommend niederbergershop.de. I snagged a 28cm/6qt(?) la mer for 140€ almost two years ago and they still look to have some pretty good prices, though not as low anymore. More on reddit.com
