As professional online shoppers, Refinery29 affiliate writers have a *spidey* sense for the best virtual sale sections and limited-time deals. Whether it’s Lululemon’s ol’ reliable We Made Too Much tab or a flash deal on a TikTok-viral carry-on — where there’s a clearance rack, there’s an R29 shopping editor sizing up its price-slashed goods. And today, we present to you the best sales happening this weekend, according to us.
The best sales and/or deals must meet at least one of the following criteria: It’s on discounted Refinery29 reader-favorite items (according to our anonymous shopping data). It takes a minimum of 25% off the full price. Or it’s a rare price slash, making a slightly smaller discount still notable. TL;DR: the following sales are ones to watch and worthy of a spot in all budget-friendly carts — I mean, in our opinion.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

Free People
This weekend, we’ve definitely got our eye on Free People’s sale section. There’s a little bit of everything, but we know Refinery29 readers love a stylish, comfy midi dress — especially if it’s 58% off.
Shop Free People
Free People Lotus Set, $, available at
Abercrombie & Fitch
Right now Abercrombie & Fitch, per its site’s homepage, is taking “15% off almost everything.” We recommend stocking up on fall work essentials, like these black flared pants, before the limited-time markdowns disappear.

Nordstrom
While the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has ended, there are still plenty of styles on sale in their ordinary sale section. Everything from cult-favorite fall kicks to beloved beauty buys are going for way less. Our personal pick: these pistachio green Nike sneakers.
Shop Nordstrom
Nike Air Max 270 Sneaker, $, available at

Whether you’re shopping for back-to-school or you’re a true OG Hollister fan, this sale event will surely pique your interest: It’s a stunning 40% off (almost) everything, and jeans are $25.

Skims’ sale section is always worth peeping. According to on-site Skims reviewers, this bralette is both “sexy” and “comfortable.” Now, it’s also 30% off and on our watch list.

Lululemon
Walking to the gym in full-coverage leggings in 90-degree heat just feels wrong. But we do miss the ample coverage when stretching. These 28%-off shorts come with built-in liners that keep you covered — a must-have for summer exercise hiding in Lulu’s famous We Made Too Much section.
Shop Lululemon
Lululemon Speed Up Mid-Rise Lined Short 4″, $, available at
Lo & Sons
We recommend not making brand-new travel plans without a new weekender to go with them. This reader-beloved brand has up to 50% off all its bags, the iconic Catalina Deluxe bag included.

Wayfair
Wayfair nearly always has insane sales going on, but right now, you can shop lots of basics, including bedding, kitchen, and bath, at up to 60% off. If it’s time for you to replace your towels, we love this one-and-done buy. Plus, one Wayfair-verified buyer writes, “These towels are very soft and fluffy. They dry you off quickly and easily without feeling scratchy. I highly recommend these towel sets!”

SSENSE
We mustn’t let the scorching temperatures distract us from stocking up on winter essentials while they’re on sale. We’re talking The North Face’s iconic retro down jackets going for 40%+ off at SSENSE.
Shop SSENSE

Ulta
This weekend, shoppers can score a $3.50 coupon on any $15 qualifying purchase. I’ve personally always wanted a colorful Juvia’s Place palette — might as well strike while the iron’s hot.
Shop Ulta

Everlane
One R29 coworker always brings the chicest commuter bags to the office, which inspired us to put this worthwhile Italian leather tote on our list while it’s a rare 25% off. It’s one of many worthwhile buys currently marked down during the cult-favorite retailer’s pre-fall event this weekend.
Shop Everlane
Everlane The Gallery Tote, $, available at
Solgaard
We tested the promo code and, yes, the rumors are true: From now until August 31, score Refinery29 readers’ favorite summer travel bag for 10% off with promo code FALLFRESH. It’s not the steepest of discounts but a rare one nonetheless.
