The Best Weekend Sales, According To R29 Shopping Editors

As professional online shoppers, Refinery29 Most Wanted writers have a spidey sense for the best virtual sale sections and limited-time offers. Whether it's Lululemon's ol' reliable We Made Too Much sale or a flash deal on best-selling skin-care brands, where there's a clearance rack, there's an R29 shopping editor ready to size up its price-slashed goods. Today, we bring you the best sales happening this weekend. Gird your loins — err, wallets. 

The deals on this list must meet at least one of the following criteria: The discount is applied to a Refinery29 reader-favorite item (according to our anonymous shopping data), it takes a minimum of 20% off the full price, or it's an item that's rarely discounted, making even a slight price cut worth noting. The following sales are ones to watch and worthy of a spot in all budget-friendly carts — at least, in our opinion.

All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission.
