Guess what, chicken butts? In addition to the predictable perks a long weekend that sits between the thigh crease of summer and fall usually promises (hot dogs, swimsuit tans, out-of-office replies, sea salt hair, drawstring linen pants), Labor Day Weekend throws out a bonus prize: REALLY, REALLY GOOD SALES.
Websites and brands have already started dropping discount hints hotter than golden hour sunlight and I’ve been diligently compiling them like the dutiful sale tour guide that I am. Some of the sales have actually already begun, but don’t panic about being late to the party. If you are, I can assure you it’s definitely the fashionable kind of late, literally and figuratively.
I wrote down a list of the best ones to browse and even started filling up a virtual shopping cart that we can all share and sing “Kumbaya” together for maximum efficiency and harmony. Here they are in alphabetical order, with a random assortment of things I’m eyeing interspersed throughout, because I’m a cool mom and I don’t play favorites:
