20 Things on Sale You’ll Actually Want to Buy: From Hanna Andersson to NEST

You may have noticed some posts from our friends at the Strategist on the Cut. They’ll be dropping in every now and again, sharing their expertise on the basics you don’t have time to research and the weird and wonderful things you don’t yet know you need.

October Prime Day begins next Tuesday, October 10, but there are plenty of other deals to tide us over while we wait. All things Halloween are 50 percent off at Hanna Andersson, and Levi’s is having a sitewide sale that’s the best we’ve seen in a while. SkinStore is offering up to 25 percent off hundreds of our favorite skin-care and hair-care products, including a face cleanser for fading acne scars and a hair serum for silky-smooth strands. And don’t sleep on the clearance section at Urban Outfitters, because already-on-sale items are an additional 50 percent off once you add them to your cart. I’m logging out for the long weekend, but make sure to sign up for our email newsletter for even more sales coverage — including five extra deals every Friday curated by yours truly.

The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
