I am considering buying a Forester, but looks like there are no specific promotions going on this month. Is it always like this for Subaru or should I wait for high volume sales events (such as on Thanksgiving and after)?
Subaru dose not do much of the gimmick cash back offers like most other brands. For us 90% of our Foresters have holds on them before they are off the truck and are selling for MSRP or over because of the demand. The best time to buy one is when you see one you like or one is coming in or ordering it.

I read recently that Foresters are in such high demand this year that they're having a hard time filling orders & people are having to wait to take delivery of their new cars.
I suggest you wait, as others have mentioned, to later in the year or even January-March if you can. Here in the Detroit area our best deals are year end clearances when the dealerships start making room for the '14's.
But if new Foresters are in short supply as I've heard, there may not be that many to choose from when it comes time for the clearance sales.
Good luck, hope you find a good deal on what you're looking for.
I'm not going to post sales sheets on a public forum. Just stating that the dealer I work for and our local market is resulting in most Foresters selling for MSRP and a few have sold for full sticker. Droideka I'm also in the snow belt and Subarus are gold plated up here both new and used.
you're stating for the second time now that your stealer is getting MSRP for these and implying that it shouldn't be a surprise for anyone else to possibly have to pay that as well. i find your boasting a bit disingenuous since no one here has paid sticker for a goddamned subaru forester.
you can certainly sell them for whatever you'd like, and again, MORE POWER TO YOU, but nobody cares what some BFE dealer in BFE PA is charging to people that can't be bothered to put a little research into car buying.
edmunds believes that a new forester can be had for ~1200 off sticker (TMV) in your area. certainly not under invoice, but certainly not MSRP like it's some kind of exotic.
Is right at the end of December an ideal time to negotiate a great price for a Forester that would undoubtedly need to be ordered? Port installed options come with no additional labor costs I believe.
"like to boast"? Oh, please. I wasn't "boasting." Plenty of members of this forum got a better price on their Forester than I did. The objective reality, no matter how much some people here want to deny it, is that most folks do NOT pay MSRP or greater for their Forester. That was the point I was attempting to make. There's a 45-page thread on this forum filled with comments by people who paid significantly below MSRP for their 2014 Forester, including folks who live "in the snow belt."
What you dismiss as "unwanted, and uncalled for, disclosure" is what I'm sure most members here consider valuable information. There's probably some connection between this fact and why that thread is 45 pages long and growing. It was certainly valuable, not "unwanted, and uncalled for", information when I was shopping for a 2014 Forester.
Not just on autos either. Almost everything. It's because the US dollar is the worlds currency standard. If Russia and China were ever successful in replacing it, as they have suggested many times now, you would see prices on everything go through the roof overnight.
