Spring Cleaning Supplies
April showers bring… spring cleaning. This time of year you’ll be able to find spring cleaning sales on a number of great cleaning supply deals but vacuums are what you should zero in on. Check out places like Dyson and Amazon for some of your best bets.
Also, be sure to check out our article on spring cleaning. We tell you how to plan your spring cleaning, and save money in the process!
Car Maintenance Deals
With April being National Car Care Month, auto supply retailers like Advance Auto Parts will use that as a reason to discount their inventory and promote their automotive tools deals. And not to mention it’s the first month in many where snow and sleet are (almost) a thing of the past and car owners will be ready to switch their maintenance gears from winter to spring.
Snow Equipment Deals
Even though there are some cities (ahem… Chicago) that can’t guarantee that you’ll have no snow in the forecast until June, retailers have declared winter over and want to clear out all things snow-related. Have you determined your 20-year old snowblower can’t take another nor’easter? Or have you finally given in to the idea of a more back-friendly shovel? Now’s the time to snatch them up at discounted prices.
Skincare and Makeup Deals
If you’re looking to refresh your makeup for spring and summer, you can look forward to the Sephora April sale that we see each year. The sale will begin for Rouge members receiving 20% off beginning 4/9. Then VIB members will get 15% off starting 3/14. And finally, Insiders will get 10% off on 4/15 through 4/19.
With the Sephora Spring sale, we expect to see other retailers like Ulta and Target offer some makeup deals to compete!
Athletic Gear & Athletic Equipment Sales
With the weather warming up, fitness retailers like Under Armour and Athleta know this is prime time to tempt their customers. Everything from shoes, to shorts, sports bras, and leggings will be given some deep discounts.

Thrift Shop Deals
With spring cleaning comes a whole new batch of goods hitting your local thrift stores and consignment shops. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure – amiright? Been trying all year to find the perfect entryway table, desk lamp, or armoire? When you drop off your donations, be sure to peek inside because this is one of the best times all year to find what you’re looking for. And let’s not overlook thrifty online favorites like eBay, Poshmark, and ThredUP!
Tax Day Deals
Tax form 1040 with US dollars
Retailers know that when mid-April hits, their customers have either just hit the jackpot with their tax return – or owe some dough to Uncle Sam. Either way, April 15th tax deals are a good way to get both kinds of customers in the door. While a number of places will be touting freebies, it’s the restaurant chains that will likely have the most to offer. In particular, if you know where to look, you can find some great April 15th fast food deals such as these:
McDonald’s Tax Day Deals
Boston Market Tax Day Deals
IHOP Tax Day Deals
Starbucks Tax Day Deals
