What to look for at Labor Day sales

Although many kids will be back in school by Labor Day, the holiday signals the end of summer for many. As a result, Labor Day can be a great time to shop for bargains for summer items.

Labor Day sales are already underway. DealNews.com suggests you look for the following deals:

Clothing. Look to save up 80 percent on summer clothes. Check department stores, big box stores, and online as well as clothing stores.

Mattresses. Compare prices. You can save at least $200 on mattress at Labor Day sales, one of few times mattresses are on sale. Check online mattress brands as well as in-store retailers.

Grills. Labor Day sales are an excellent time to look for a good deal on grills. However, you may find a better price in October. Compare prices.

Major appliances. Look for deals up to 35 to 40 percent off.

Patio furniture. Check prices at hardware stores, big box stores, and membership warehouse clubs.

Good luck with your shopping. I hope you can find some great bargains.

I've gotten some good deals on clothes at places like Macy's. They seem to always be having a sale.

Yes, I've shopped at the Macy's sales, too, before the pandemic. They often had racks of clothes that hadn't sold for 40 to 50 percent off.r

I am in the market for outdoor furniture which I will store for use next spring and summer!

It's a good time to compare prices for outdoor furniture at the Labor Day sales.
