With Labor Day just around the corner, retailers are taking advantage of the holiday weekend to roll out some serious bargains. That’s the word from Jon Lal, founder and CEO of the deals site BeFrugal.com, who says consumers can expect to see markdowns on everything from already reduced summer clearance items — think summer clothes, outdoor supplies, patio furniture and grills — to cars.
“[Automobile] dealerships are trying to move inventory to make room for new models debuting in September,” he says via email, “and you can find good deals and will have more room to bargain during this time.”
Another item you’re bound to find deals on this weekend? Appliances, says Rebecca Lehmann, manager of content marketing for Brad’s Deals. With new models beginning to roll out, retailers are eager to clear old stock to make room for the new. You’re also sure to find deals on dinnerware, whose sales decline with the wind down of wedding season, as well as wine because new vintages are often released in the fall. Here are a few Labor Day sales to put on your radar.
In the market for a gas grill? How about a new vacuum? Appliances are a hot commodity right now, and the home improvement store is marking down prices accordingly. Dyson Ball Multi Floor units are now priced at $288, down from $489.91, while Weber Genesis Gas Grills are $100 cheaper. Select vanities, such as the Claxby Cream Vanity with stone effect, is now $299 from $549.
Like Home Depot, Lowes is marking down Weber Genesis Gas Grills by $100. Unlike Home Depot, their patio furniture is slashed up to 75%. Some select Dyson vacuums can be had for up to $150 off.
Site-wide discounts are abundant on Macy’s, where everything from jewelry to kitchen appliances are on markdown. “September isn’t a major gift-giving month,” says Lal, so “jewelers are more likely to come down in price.” As an example, one stunning set of 10K and 14K gold earrings, regularly $150 to $1,500, are now 70% off.
The dinnerware stalwart is offering sales on many of its products to make room for next year’s items. That means free shipping on orders more than $99 and 20% off select products. The retailer’s Back to College sale on dinnerware, mugs, gadgets and wall decor also offers up to 56% in savings.
“Walmart has summer patio and garden clearance, in addition to remaining back-to-school sales,” writes Lal. One converting outdoor swing has seen its price come down $235.04 dollars while Igloo mini fridges (perfect for college students) are going for $99.
