In today’s rummage through the internet’s sale bins, we found lots of things to make the outdoors (and the indoors) a little more bearable this summer, including unexpected discounts on a three-seater storage bench for the deck or patio, a Strategist-approved mini-fridge for keeping your moisturizer cool, and some expert-recommended running shorts for him and her.
Select candles are 20 percent off over at Anthropologie, which means it’s time to stock up on everybody’s favorite Capri Blue Volcano candles. (Drag queen Kim Chi told us they smell like “you’re in a bed of flowers and there are fairies flying around tickling your nose.”)
Anthropologie is taking an extra 40 percent off some shoes and clothing as well, bringing these statusy Swedish Hasbeens clogs — that can be paired with socks once the weather turns cooler — down to just $114.
We also spotted this Cooluli mini beauty fridge, which one Strategist contributor says “runs almost silently,” uses “about as much power as a 50-watt light bulb,” and extends the shelf life of most creams, serums, and moisturizers.
If you’re short on outdoor seating, Society6 is taking 30 percent off select tabletop, outdoor, lifestyle, and décor items, including this minimalist sling chair inspired by Matisse’s leaf prints.
Alternatively, this acacia bench seats three and is stylish enough to be used indoors as a display table as well.
Whether you plan on wearing them as streetwear or hiking gear, these ventilated boots from Salomon were designed with warm weather in mind, and are still available in most sizes.
This gaming mouse from Logitech — one of our favorite brands for gaming mouses — has eight programmable buttons for easy customization and can save up to five profiles for different PCs.
Nike is taking an extra 20 percent off some best-selling styles for members with code BEST20. (Membership is free and requires an email address.) Among the discounts are these marathon-runner-approved running shorts that are available in a handful of colors and sizes.
One avid gymgoer told us that these seven-inch shorts never sag while running and feature an interior back pocket that’s perfect for keys that might otherwise jangle against your leg.
Here’s an excellent deal on a three-pack of well-reviewed (and Strategist-approved) natural deodorant.
And finally, Carbon38 is taking 30 percent off sitewide with the code FAM30. We recommend picking up the brand’s ribbed tank (from our guide to the best white tank tops for women). With its scoop neckline, built-in bra, and subtle crop, stylist Jasmine Caccamo says it’s perfect for “throwing on under a lightweight blazer for a quick, easy, effortless look.”
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.
