Saving 101, Special Sale Events
Where to Find the Biggest End of Summer Savings
Summer is coming to a close, and a changing of the seasons means many stores will be offering some major end-of-season sales. There are countless stores running promotions on apparel like Macy’s, but a select few are offering the best end of season deals. Below are my top picks for seasonal savings. The best part? You’ll earn Cash Back at all of them by shopping with Rakuten.
At the end of each season, you’ll find major deals on outdoor merchandise at stores like Lowe’s. If you were eyeing a patio set earlier in the year, you’re in luck. Now is the best time of the year to shop outdoor furniture and accessories. It’s also a great time to look into lawn and garden tools, which can be had for up to 20% off. Pay special attention to the accessories as well. Outdoor rugs, pillows, side tables and lighting are all available at great prices.
Sears: Grills and grilling accessories
When summer ends, it doesn’t mean you have to stop grilling. In fact, the end of the season is the best time to invest in a shiny new gas grill, smoker or charcoal grill. Surprisingly, Sears is the place to pick one up. At up to 25% off, plus Cash Back from Rakuten, you’ll be set up to save big. Stock up on grill accessories like a new cover, scrubber, and tongs so you’re ready for another season full of flavor.
I mentioned outdoor furniture earlier, but you can also score some great deals on indoor furniture as summer fades. You just have to know where to look. Overstock is my pick for furniture deals — specifically living room furniture and bedroom sets. Right now, you can save an extra 15% on those items and more. If you’re in need of a rug, I love this ombre option because of its simplicity.
Chain Reaction Cycles: Bikes and bike accessories
Many people put their bikes away when colder weather sets in, but fall offers some of the best times to ride. The end of the summer season also means stores are making room for new models and gear. Right now, Chain Reaction Cycles is offering an extra 10% off everything.
Ulta is running a special promotion called the 21 Days of Beauty where you can save up to 50% on popular items. On top of that, you’ll get 4% Cash Back by shopping with Rakuten. There’s a little something for everyone during the promotion, which runs September 1 through 21.
If you’re not a member of Rakuten, join now and start earning Cash Back in the form of a Big Fat Check. You’ll get $10 after your first purchase of $25 in any participating store, and you can earn an additional $25 for every friend you refer.
