While big box retailers are great places to stock up on all kinds of holiday decorative lights, they're not great places to buy Christmas lights. Many people are tempted to buy lights from retailers because they are usually very cheap. However, this is probably the most common mistake people make and it can seriously affect the quality and longevity of your Christmas display.
Unfortunately, the reason the big chains can sell lights so cheaply is that they are often not high quality. The quality and brightness cannot be compared to professional-grade LED Christmas lights. Also, you're more likely to experience light failures when buying from a retailer.
Damage from water and dirt seeping into bulbs is the number one cause of light failure, so using professional-grade LED lights can save you a lot of hassle and save you from having to buy new string lights when compared to cheaper options.
So while retail Christmas lights may seem like a good deal, they may actually end up being more expensive than you expected if you need to keep buying new lights. Also, the hassle of having a bulb burn out on a light set is a real nuisance. Save yourself time and frustration by switching to quality, professional-grade lights.
Another of the most common mistakes people tend to make when shopping for Christmas lights is not setting realistic expectations for themselves and not designing them according to plan. For example, people may find that they don't have enough lights to create the full effect they are looking for. Therefore, we generally recommend that you buy more of the lights you use most. Usually, you will need them.
On the other hand, however, it is also important not to spend unnecessary money. So before you go ahead and make any purchases, make sure you have a plan for your Christmas lights. This way, you avoid buying things you don't really need or use. This will save you money and allow you to spend your budget wisely on the most important aspects of your design.
