Ever wonder how to create a beautiful Thanksgiving table?

What You Should Buy in After Christmas Sales

What You Should Buy in After Christmas Sales

Your inbox is likely flooded with promotional emails from every store you’ve ever shopped at, touting their after-Christmas sales and deals. But what should you actually be shopping for during these post-Christmas sales? And what should you avoid or postpone until next year? Keep reading for our expert advice.

In This Post

  1. Getting the Best After-Christmas Deals
  2. Winter Clothes
  3. Holiday Decor & Supplies
  4. Holiday Gift Sets
  5. Toys
  6. Candles
  7. Food and Candy
  8. What to Avoid during After-Christmas Sales

Getting the Best After-Christmas Deals

The trick to getting the best after-Christmas deals is to be thoughtful and conscientious when combing through ads and sales racks. Below are some of the top deals we find discounted each year as well as which ones to avoid.

Keep in mind that in 2021 we may see higher prices on sale items than we have in the past. We’re still dealing with supply chain shortages and many retailers are looking to make up for lost or lower revenue with slightly higher holiday pricing. Be diligent, but also know that you may spend a few extra bucks even on clearance items this year.

Winter Clothes

Stores are hoping to start clearing out their heavy winter apparel to make room for their spring lines. While it may seem like you have just started thinking about a new winter coat this year, retailers are already thinking months ahead.

Keep an eye out for deals on sweaters, boots, coats, slippers, and other keep-warm essentials. Don’t forget to check on kids’ clothing for the next year in a bigger size.

For winter clothing deals, check after-Christmas sales at the following stores:

Amazon

Backcountry

Macy’s

Holiday Decor and Supplies

Did your Christmas tree poop out on you this year? Are all of your outdoor Christmas lights on their last bulbs? Now is the time to check clearance racks for post-holiday decor and supplies

Things like wrapping paper, gift tags, stockings, and garland are going to be on sale. But be sure to act fast. A trip to Target the day after Christmas proves that shoppers jump on these sales and shelves empty quickly.

A quick note to also check for fall decor items as well. Many shoppers are hopping on the holiday decor sales, but some stores may still have fall decor taking up space that you can get for over 70% off.

For holiday decor deals, check after-Christmas sales at the following stores:

Kohl’s

Home Depot

Wayfair

Holiday Gift Sets

paul mitchell gift sets

Many brands package up their best sellers in pretty holiday packaging to make it appealing for gifts. But just because your favorite shampoo has a giant Christmas ornament emblazoned on the front doesn’t mean you can’t buy it now and use it in the spring.

Stock up on your favorite brands with discounted holiday packaging and bundles. Last year I was able to get my favorite mascara in a holiday-gift set that was two for the price of one! I didn’t open it for another month, but I saved money and had it in my cabinet when I ran out of my current tube.

For holiday gift set deals, check after-Christmas sales at the following stores:

Ulta

Macy’s

Nordstrom

Sephora

Toys

christmas clearance toys

Unsold toys and games may go on sale after the holidays to make room for new inventory. Check particularly for toys and games that were stocked up for the holidays. My local Target had tons of mini Lite Brites and Etch-a-Sketch toys for stocking stuffers and now that the holiday is over, they’ll want to get those off the shelves.

You can stock up on some Christmas or birthday gifts for next year by picking up any you find on sale or clearance.

For the best toy deals, check after-Christmas sales at the following stores:

Target

Walmart

Candles

Another huge gift item, we’ll see a lot of candles hit the sale shelves in the coming weeks. Look for holiday scents for next year or giftable sets that didn’t sell. You can stock up for yourself or on gifts to give throughout the year.

For some great candle deals, check after-Christmas sales at the following stores:

Bath and Body Works

Yankee Candle

Food and Candy

christmas clearance candy

Though you may be starting to think about avoiding holiday treats and goodies, you will find some great deals in after-Christmas sales. Holiday packaged candy and cookies will be marked down as well as excess holiday party essentials like wines, cheese, party mixes, or baking supplies.

What to Avoid in After-Christmas Sales

fitness

Some items are best to avoid during after-Christmas sales. They are either rarely reduced or inflated during this time of year. Here are our suggestions on what to avoid:

Fitness Equipment

With New Year’s resolutions in full swing, every retailer will be promoting fitness equipment. If you are hoping to purchase fitness equipment right now, don’t believe the hype of a sale and price compare as much as possible. Some MSRPs may be inflated to show a great sale when really it’s a mediocre price.

Electronics

We saw most of the sales we’re going to see on electronics during Black Friday sales and pre-Christmas sales in early December. Many retailers are not going to have post-Christmas sales on electronics, but here’s a tip: check for TV deals in late January as some stores have discounts before the Super Bowl.

6 Best Places to Find Deals on Patagonia Fleece, Jackets, and More

6 Best Places to Find Deals on Patagonia Fleece, Jackets, and More

Patagonia is one of the most popular high-quality lifestyle brands on the planet, but that quality often comes with a hefty price tag. Good news everyone – finding great deals on Patagonia jackets, fleece, and gear is easier than you think!



We’ve rounded up a few of our favorite sources for cheap Patagonia below, but if you’d rather let the best Patagonia deals come to you, just set up a Deal Alert for Patagonia and we’ll send you a note whenever we find something great.

man standing with a Patagonia backpack

The 6 Best Places to Buy Patagonia on Sale

Patagonia

Our number one pick for finding great deals on Patagonia jackets and gear is… Patagonia! It shouldn’t come as a surprise that buying directly from the brand is a solid way to find a deal. Check out the Web Specials section to find Patagonia’s sale items. Added bonus: you never have to wonder if it’s authentic.

Backcountry

We’re constantly finding Patagonia on sale at Backcountry, an authorized reseller for many top outdoor lifestyle brands. You’ll find everything from fleece pullovers to down parkas here.

Steep & Cheap

If you like buying your Patagonia on clearance, check out Steep & Cheap, the outlet store for Backcountry. This is a last-call situation so colors and sizes are sometimes limited, but the bargains really can’t be beaten.

REI

REI’s reputation leans more towards a premium outdoors lifestyle, but they’ve still got clearance racks, and Patagonia often finds its way onto them. REI is especially worth a look in November. They famously don’t participate in Black Friday, but that just means they’re holding comparable sales on other days that month.

Mountain Steals

Another great store to snag Patagonia on sale is Mountain Steals, where we’ve seen plenty of Patagonia bargains over the years. One recent deal for 50% off Patagonia knocked the price of some jackets down to less than $50!

Amazon

The last great place on our list for finding Patagonia on sale is Amazon. Different sizes and colors may be offered at different prices, but you can usually find what you are looking for by filtering through Amazon.

Where to Find UGG Boots on Sale

Where to Find UGG Boots on Sale

UGH! What’s a girl to do when those basic boots are financially out of reach? The struggle is real.

If you’ve ever stepped your foot inside the heavenly cloud of plush shearling lining, then you know that UGGs are a winter essential, even if you don’t think they’re cute. But these cozy shoe/slipper hybrids are notoriously expensive, and the classic styles and colors almost never go on sale.

4 Tips on Finding UGG Boots on Sale & Clearance

Luckily, the dedicated editors on the Brad’s Deals team are experts in all things sale. Over the years, we’ve learned a few tips and tricks that can soften the otherwise hefty blow a pair of brand new UGGs will do to your wallet.

Shop the best seasonal sales.

The most obvious way to save on UGG boots is to shop the winter sales. While you won’t find discounts on the new water-resistant classics, you can find classic colors on sale at a number of stores. Here’s a few of our favorites places to find cheap UGG boots:

Take advantage of credit card and coupon discounts on new styles.

If you’re looking for discounts on the new styles, you can find Neiman Marcus coupons a few times throughout autumn that will save you $50-$100 off the regular price purchase. The catch? You have to spend at least $200 to save, so plan on grabbing a pair for someone else in the family, too.

Or, take advantage of an email signup or credit card offer. For instance, the Chase Sapphire Preferred card currently offers new cardholders 60,000 bonus points after spending $4,000 in the first three months. Macy’s offers 20 percent off your purchase when you open a store charge card, and you can get 10 percent off when you sign up for email and text alerts at Bloomingdale’s. Note that some retailers may exclude UGG merchandise from these offers.

Buy kids’ UGG boots.

Insider secret: UGG kids’ boots look exactly the same as the women’s styles and cost about 20 percent less. Kids’ sizes 3-6 are equivalent to a women’s size 5-8, so if you have feet on the smaller side, there’s a good chance you’ll find the perfect fit for a less threatening price. We also typically see deeper discounts on kids’ styles when they go on sale.

Buy Koolaburra by UGG (or a similar brand).

The cheapest pair of UGG boots we found on sale this year were still $77. But UGG’s sister brand, Koolaburra, features lookalikes for a fraction of the price. The difference? UGG boots are lined in 100% genuine sheepskin, while Koolaburra boots are lined with a combination of shearling and faux-fur. Considering you still get the soft suede upper and durable EVA sole, we think these boots are a bargain, even at full price. You can also buy select styles at Kohl’s and take advantage of Kohl’s Cash offers.

Another option is to try another brand altogether. Bearpaw boots, which are nearly indistinguishable from UGGs, have a sheepskin and wool blend lining. You can get them for half the price of similar UGG styles, and they’re also more likely to go on sale. Emu Australia boots are also comparable to UGGs in both quality and price — but we see deeper discounts on these throughout the year. Of all the options, we think Australia Luxe has the cutest styles. You can also find great discounts on this brand at Zulily.

Get the right pair, and make them last.

You’ll want those new boots to last, so be sure to use a waterproofing spray. I personally love the Bailey button and bow style UGG boots, but I’ve also learned firsthand these aren’t as durable because the shearling is exposed to the elements. If you live in a snowy climate, you’re better off sticking with the classic styles (which are also cheaper).

Also keep in mind, all UGGs are not created equal. While I find the classic UGGs to be instrumental in maintaining my personal happiness, the leather styles that look more like traditional boots do not breathe like the classics, and are not nearly as comfortable. If you’re looking for a nice pair of riding boots, you can get a genuine leather pair for $60-$100 on sale from another brand. There’s no need to spend upward of $200 on UGGs.

Take advantage of Deal Alerts.

Let Brad’s Deals do the deal hunting for you. When you create a deal alert for UGG, we’ll send you a note whenever we find a matching deal. All you’ll need to do is sit back and wait for the UGG deals to come to you!

17 Last-Minute Gift Ideas from Amazon

If you’ve got an Amazon Prime membership, you may be in luck as far as snagging some very, very last-minute gifts this holiday. While most shipping cutoffs are fast approaching, the 2-day Prime shipping still gives you plenty of time to wrap up (see what I did there?) your Christmas list with a few last-minute gift purchases. Keep reading for some last-minute gift inspiration for everyone on your list.

If you’ve still got a couple of hard-to-shop-for people on your list and want to avoid gift cards or cash, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite Amazon deals that are still available for Prime shipping and slated to arrive before Christmas. Please check your estimated delivery date when you enter your shipping location to confirm it will arrive on time and also allot some time for delays with shipping carriers.
