Friday Sales: Gap and Lululemon

It’s been a very, very good week for sales, which is something I don’t usually get to say in the week or two leading up to a major holiday weekend. In the clothing department, Gap is having a sitewide sale (which, shockingly, includes its collaboration with Dôen); hundreds of items are 30 percent off at Reformation; & Other Stories launched a “Last Days of Summer” sale with an extra 30 percent off all sale items; and Everlane is discounting all of its jeans (both women’s and men’s).

On the beauty front, you only have a few more days to shop Dermstore’s Anniversary Sale before it ends on Sunday night. Beauty writer Tembe Denton-Hurst added even more Strategist-approved picks to her list of her favorite deals from the sale, and I’ve nabbed some of the must-buys for today’s roundup. (All my suggestions from last week are still on sale, too!) For even more beauty deals, writer Kitty Guo updated all the best beauty products on sale this week.

Some other sales of note: Labor Day sales have already started, at least for mattresses, so sleep writer Amelia Jerden has rounded up the best Labor Day mattress deals so far. (Keep your eyes peeled for my early Labor Day sales picks in every category next week, when more deals will start.) Back-to-school sales are still going strong, and I added several new ones to my roundup this week — and included some favorites here, like a cache of Dagne Dover and Herschel bags. Relatedly, junior writer Bella Druckman updated her roundup of the best products we’ve written about that are on sale at Amazon this week, and a lot of her finds are worth checking out for back-to-school shoppers, like colorful pens and an electric lunch box.

Finally, we just launched the Strategist Sales Alert newsletter! Make sure to sign up for daily sales sent directly to your inbox. —Sam Daly, deals editor
