Alex Mill, Lands’ End, and Levi’s: The Best Half-Off (or More) Memorial Day Deals
This might not be the best Memorial Day weekend to catch some sun (in the greater New York area, at least), but it is an excellent time to catch some of the deepest discounts of the year. Gone are the days when the pre-summer holiday weekend sales events only covered big-ticket appliances and mattresses. Right now, the markdowns span practically every category, including apparel and accessories, home and kitchen, furniture, and tech. If you know me, you know I want my bargains to be worthwhile — I regularly report on discounts that are 50 percent off (or more) — and this roundup is no different. Below, you’ll find flattering Lands’ End swimwear, an Alex Mill sailor-style sweater, and our favorite affordable robot vacuum.
For even more Memorial Day deals, check out our deals editor Sam Daly’s list of all the best sales (so far) here. Finally, don’t forget to sign up for the Strategist Deal Freaks Daily newsletter for all our exclusive sales intel.

I added a new batch of deals throughout this list from Anthropologie, Nordstrom, and more.
Deals I personally think are the best
Our contributing writer Erika Veurink says these sheets wash brilliantly and feel cool on the skin. For my own closet, I’m eyeing this classic blue-and-white-stripe tank top from Alex Mill and Athleta’s 100 percent linen (but machine-washable) wide-leg pants.
Women’s apparel and accessories
In addition to Alex Mill and Lands’ End, lots of Strategist-favorite brands, including Madewell and Athleta, are having worthwhile sales on women’s apparel. I love this New England summer-y sailor cardigan from Alex Mill and Lands’ End’s straw tote, which is a beachier take on its classic canvas one.

Men’s apparel and accessories
Over in the men’s department, I found several over 50 percent off deals at Levi’s, Lands’ End, and Hanes. I regularly steal my fiancé’s Comfort Colors tees, since they are so soft and feel perfectly worn-in, and now you can get a set of two for just $12.
