13 Things on Sale You’ll Actually Want to Buy: From Banana Republic to Hay
I began today’s sales sweep by perusing REI’s sale section, where plenty of men’s summer shoes — like walking sneakers and hiking sandals — are deeply discounted. For everyday wear, Banana Republic is having a sale-on-sale that’s perfect for stocking up on all things denim. And finally, I found a Shark vacuum, beginner-friendly electric razor, and a Strategist-approved streaming stick all for under $100 apiece.
