Sales and Other Assorted Shopping Sweets

Posted by The Editorial Desk / Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

Hi there, shoppers! I don’t know if the traffic everywhere was far less than desirable this morning, but I do know of at least a handful of commutes this a.m., including my own, that would certainly fall into that category. Yet, trust me, shoppers, today is not a terrible Tuesday. First of all, there are oodles of outrageous sales just begging to be explored.

Some of the best:

South Moon Under is offering a 20-percent discount on online purchases through midnight on April 21 with the promo code “forward20.”

Calvin Klein is currently hosting a Spring Sale online, featuring savings of up to 60 percent on clothing and accessories.

Skinstore.com is already celebrating Mother’s Day, offering shoppers 20 percent off with the code “MOMSDAY” through May 3.

Today only, Banana Republic is offering a 40-percent discount on online jewelry orders with the code “BRBLING.”

For a limited time, select styles at destinationmaternity.com are selling at up to 75 percent off.

Bloomingdale’s is hosting a Buy More, Save More Event, giving shoppers a 20-percent discount on online orders of $250 to $499.99 and a 30-percent discount on orders $500 or more.

And, it’s Friends & Family Sale time at Saks and Lord & Taylor! At Saks, the code “FRIEND3″ means 20 percent off online orders through tomorrow, April 21. And, at Lord & Taylor, an extra 25 percent off almost everything online, 10 percent on cosmetics and fragrances, is up for grabs with the code “FRIENDS.”  The in-store sales start soon.

Also exciting in the retail world: Kitty Kelley, author of the new much-talked-about “Oprah: A Biography,” will be at the Tysons Corner Center Barnes & Noble store at 7 p.m. on April 29. Should be interesting!

Happy Shopping!
