HOUSTON — Labor Day is not just the unofficial end of summer. It is also a holiday weekend known for big sales.
So what will be deeply discounted this year? You can expect the usual sales on summer seasonal items.
According to the experts, things like grills, outdoor furniture, and yard tools could be up to 50 percent off. Also keep your eye out for big discounts on summer clothes like bathing suits, shorts and sandals.
But it’s not just seasonal stuff on sale.
Retailers are expected to slash prices on big ticket items to lure people into the store. Think dishwashers, washing machines and mattresses. Often manufacturers release new models of appliances in the fall so this a chance for retailers to make space for the new items.
Not everything will be on sale this weekend. Experts warn you may want to hold off on doing some early Christmas shopping. Items like electronics and toys will get bigger price cuts as we get closer to the holiday shopping season.
The good news is stores have been starting those holiday discounts earlier and earlier so you shouldn’t have to wait too long to see those sales.
