The holiday may still be a few days out, but there are already lots of (surprisingly good) Labor Day deals available on a wide range of goods. That includes 25 percent off skin care at Skinstore, 40 percent off plush Coyuchi towels, 50 percent off end-of-summer styles at Everlane, and lots of discounted mattresses. It’s safe to say that the best of the sales are already live (and we won’t be around to update this post during the long weekend), so if you see something you like, now’s as good a time as any to start shopping — especially before styles start selling out. If you’re interested in even more sales coverage, there’s never a bad time to sign up for our email newsletter.
