As a commerce editor, understanding the economy is quite literally part of my job—but even I am confused right now. Not even the smart people seem to know how much things will truly cost in three months or three years down the line. So, as someone who essentially online shops for a living, it’s my professional recommendation to take advantage of this weekend’s Memorial Day clothing sales.
I’m not saying you should max out your credit card; I’m simply proposing you stock up on a few new staple pieces before prices potentially go haywire. Check the labels on your clothes, shoes, and bags, and you’ll quickly see that almost every cute outfit you own was produced abroad. Clothing retailers know that fashion lovers are freaking out about this, so they’re offering more Memorial Day promo codes, sitewide discounts, and sale-on-sale action than usual.
There are thousands of Memorial Day deals out there right now, meaning whatever cute sundress, matching set, or designer bag you’ve been lusting after is probably marked down. To help you make sense of this year’s sales and adhere to your budget, I’ve broken down 22 of the best Memorial Day weekend sales below. (P.S. They’re in alphabetical order.) Most will end on Monday, May 26 when the clock strikes midnight, so shop while you can.
Now through May 26, Abercrombie & Fitch is offering shoppers 25% off almost everything on its site, including shorts, jeans, sundresses, summer knits, and matching sets. Be sure to check out the A&F Wedding Shop for Memorial Day deals on bridesmaid and wedding guest dresses, too.
