I don’t usually complain about sales, but right now, there are simply too many of them for even the most seasoned of sale shoppers to keep track of. It’s in times like these that you have to figure out how to prioritize and come to terms with the fact that, no matter how hard you try, you probably can’t shop them all. But don’t fret. I did some digging and have determined that out of all the markdowns happening at the moment, there are only really three worth investing your time in, and those are the ones taking place at J.Crew, Madewell, and Banana Republic. Intrigued? I thought you might be.
Here’s everything you need to know. Over at Banana Republic, from now until the end of the day today, all items found in the sale section are 40% off—and trust me, there are some good spring pieces to be discovered there. Once you’ve found what you’re looking for there, head over to Madewell and J.Crew, where big discounts are being doled out from today until the 21st and 22nd, respectively. On Madewell’s side, sale items are as marked, whereas J.Crew is doling out an extra 60% on certain sale items and an extra 30% off on others when you use the code SHOPSALE at checkout. And here’s the best part: I went ahead and found the best pieces from all three sales and rounded them up below. Thank me later.
