There's so much to love about a long holiday weekend — especially when the holiday in question is Labour Day. Not only does the event signal the official end to summer and transition into fall, but as with most long weekends, it also brings with it a variety of can't-miss sales, deals, and promotional offerings that are so good, it's likely you won't see them again until Black Friday. While we're still a little over a week away from finally punching our time clocks and heading out to celebrate the long-awaited Labour Day weekend ahead, many of our favourite retailers are getting into the spirit of the season early — and giving us even more time to scope out the best Labour Day deals, too.
From markdowns on summer fashion items and sales on home furniture accents to deals on kitchen appliances, cult-favourite beauty staples, and today's most coveted tech products, there are plenty of pre-Labour Day weekend sales that are worth shopping right now — and available from some of today's hottest brands like Sephora, Best Buy, Urban Outfitters, Allbirds, Sur La Table, Amazon, Target, and more. Regardless of what you're looking for (besides a truly fantastic deal, of course!), you're bound to find it ahead. Browse through our guide for the best sales to shop this week.
A Home-Decor Accent: Target Costway Round Side Table
It's true: Target is rarely lacking in the sale department. But this week, the retailer is offering even bigger deals across major categories like beauty, tech, and even home furniture. The proof? This darling Target Costway Round Side Table ($55, originally $150) is currently 63 percent off. And for that great of a deal, you can definitely make space in your living room or home office to squeeze it into the furniture lineup.
Coveted Tech: Apple AirPods Pro
With the school season amping up and everyone heading back into the classroom (well, almost everyone), Best Buy is celebrating the occasion with a slew of back-to-school deals on products that are perfect for teens, college students, and really anyone willing to make a sound tech investment. The Apple AirPods Pro ($180, originally $220) are well worth the splurge, if you haven't purchased a pair for yourself already — especially with that under-$200 price tag.
Popular Loungewear: Cosy Earth Bamboo Joggers
When it comes to loungewear, we're always in the market for fresh and cosy new pieces. And luckily, Cosy Earth is helping us meet our lazy fashion needs in style with an early Labour Day weekend sale that features deals of 20-25 percent off products sitewide. We have major heart eyes for these Cosy Earth Bamboo Joggers ($120, originally $150) because they're muted, plush, and even Oprah Winfrey approved (bonus!).
Trending Beauty: Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask
Here at POPSUGAR, we really love this Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask ($24) — and fortunately for us (and you!), shoppers can currently score free shipping on this nourishing lip product, plus a plethora of other cult-favourite beauty items at Sephora. Simply use the code FREESHIP to enjoy free shipping and stock up on must-have beauty and skin-care essentials in the process.
A Wellness Tool: Theragun Pro Percussive Therapy
Therabody's athlete-loved massage guns are an essential for fitness geeks and the wellness-obsessed alike. This Theragun Pro Percussive Therapy ($499, originally $599) tool aims to provide targeted relief to sore muscles, while also offering a number of other massageing capabilities. The cult-favourite product is rarely on sale and so worth shopping from Therabody right now — especially with the brand's current deal of up to $100 off percussive therapy massagers.
Stylish Living Essentials: Urban Outfitters Washed Cotton Tassel Duvet Cover
Urban Outfitters might not have as big of a reputation for its home decor and living section, but as POPSUGAR editors, we know it absolutely should. Not only does the brand have a pretty expansive collection of home essentials that are both stylish and cosy, but it also frequently hosts sales on the products. This week, shoppers can take 20 percent off bedding — just like this plush Urban Outfitters Washed Cotton Tassel Duvet Cover ($67, originally $89) — at Urban Outfitters.
Cult-Favourite Cookware: Le Creuset Signature Round Deep Dutch Oven
Sur La Table is currently hosting its end-of-season sale, which features some of the brand's lowest prices of the year on top cookware labels (yes, of the year!). Dozens of cult-favourite kitchen essentials from Staub and Le Creuset are also included in that mix of deals — including the bestselling Le Creuset Signature Round Deep Dutch Oven ($250, originally $380). It's rare that you'll see one of the pieces marked down (especially for over $100 off!), so we recommend you get shopping ASAP. Plus, shoppers can also enjoy free ground shopping on orders over $75.
A Cleaning Tool: iRobot Roomba Self-Emptying Vacuum
We can always rely on Amazon to deliver with some of the best deals of the entire season. And the retailer's current early Labour Day sale offerings have proven to be just as excellent. For a limited time, shoppers can take over $200 off this top-rated iRobot Roomba Self-Emptying Vacuum ($599, originally $800). Equipped with smart technology capabilities, the vacuum helps to make home cleaning a breeze!
Luxe Skin Care: RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Anti-Ageing Night Cream
We can never resist a good beauty deal when we find one — and fortunately, Amazon always seems to be buzzing with beauty deals aplenty, regardless of the season. Such is the case this week, with a number of luxe skin-care and beauty products that are now marked down through the retailer. This RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Anti-Ageing Night Cream ($20, originally $28) is just one of many that's included in Amazon's early Labour Day weekend deals. Plus, it's also one of our must-shop products at the moment — thanks to the more than 18,000 near-perfect reviews it has on the brand's website.
Statement Footwear: Allbirds Tree Pipers Sneakers
The best part about Allbirds is that the brand manages to make sneakers that look as good as they feel — and are often crafted from some of the most sustainable materials in fashion today, too. If you're looking to invest in a fresh pair of kicks for the new season, these Allbirds Tree Pipers Sneakers ($79, originally $105) are the shoe for you. Not only is the style a bestseller from the brand, but it's also on sale‚ along with a number of other sneakers that are marked down for as much as 40 percent off through the brand's current sale section.
A Cool Kitchen Tool: Vavsea Speed Stick Blender
Walmart is just one of many retailers that have blended their end-of-summer deals with early Labour Day weekend offers — and made our shopping this week much more feasible because of it. Kitchen appliances and tools are seeing some of the best deals at Walmart as of present. And we have our eyes on this Vavsea Speed Stick Blender ($38, originally $95), in particular. Not only is it great for making your morning smoothies, but it's also $57 off.
Designer Fashion: Kate Spade New York Large All Day Leather Tote
Whether you're getting a head start on your holiday shopping (smart move, if so!) or you're simply looking to shop for a new work bag for yourself, we recommend starting your spree at Saks Fifth Avenue — where the brand is currently hosting a Designer Sale that features markdowns of up to 75 percent off on some of the most luxe designer products out there at the moment. We love the classically chic nature of this Kate Spade New York Large All Day Leather Tote ($174, originally $248), which is also included in the Designer Sale.
A Morning Must Have: K-Café Special Edition Single Serve Coffee Latte & Cappuccino Maker
Cosy season is coming up, and it's imperative that you have a reliable coffee maker to help get you through it. This K-Café Special Edition Single Serve Coffee Latte & Cappuccino Maker ($50, originally $200) is one of the most advanced ones out there at the moment. And for a limited time, shoppers can get the model for up to 75 percent off — so long as they purchase it through Keurig's starter-kit deal.
