Every Labor Day Sale You Don’t Want to Miss in 2022

You can’t afford to miss these discounts

This year’s Labor Day sales will be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. That’s because retailers across the country are doing their best to clear out the seasonal merchandise they still have because of reduced in-person shopping over the past few years. As a result, they’re offering extended discounts on beauty, back-to-school sale items, appliances, mattresses and everything else, as well as rarely offered bonuses.

“Labor Day weekend falls around the time kids go back to school and summer comes to an end, so you can expect retailers to promote even deeper discounts on seasonal merchandise to make room for colder-season items,” says Andrea Woroch, a money-saving expert.

“You can find plenty of deals on end-of-season staples such as summer clothing basics—think T-shirts, dresses and fitness essentials like workout shorts—as well as patio furniture, grills and other outdoor-entertaining items,” Woroch says. “The back-to-school rush will be coming to an end around this time, too, so you can expect even further discounts on school supplies, backpacks and messenger bags and comfortable walking shoes and boots.”

In short, get ready to put up your Labor Day decorations and do some serious shopping. Then you can use your savings to eat at one of the many restaurants open on Labor Day. You can’t afford to miss these sales—and even better, most of what you buy will ship right to your door!

Labor Day sales are deal treasure troves for fashion lovers, with discounts at up to 80% off usual prices. For those who live in warmer climates, that may mean scoring year-round looks for a fraction of what they’d normally cost.

While you’ll find great sales on newer fashion items promoted earlier in the season for the return to school and work, says Woroch, the real deals are in the summer clearance section. “You can easily scoop up bathing suits, sandals and hats, dresses, T-shirts, shorts and other summer fashion for 60 to 70% off,” she notes.

Stock up for fall, winter and spring cleaning while stores are offering stackable discounts, coupons and codes. “Don’t assume the Labor Day sale price is the best deal you can get,” says Woroch. “You can stack coupons on top of the sale to save even more.

This has worked for me multiple times.” She adds that you can also often layer promo codes over sale prices when shopping online, too.

Woroch suggests scouring the sales for tech accessories, laptops, earbuds and other electronics, but steering clear of mobile phone purchases at this time of year. “Apple typically releases its newest iPhone model in September, so hold off until you hear the news,” she says. “Once it’s released, retailers will begin reducing prices on the past model, as well as other models, since they will be less desirable.”
