If you and your credit card have been patiently waiting for the perfect moment to buy your first designer handbag, sunglasses or shoes, now’s the time. Saks Fifth Avenue’s Friends and Family Sale is here, and color us touched, because we’re considered to be a part of that group—you included! The extremely rare sale comes once a year and accounts for a ton of jaw-breaking deals. We’re talking Prada, Staud and Balenciaga discounts, people. More than 48,000 designer pieces are a part of this huge event, and you bet we combed through every single page to see what bargains were the best.
When a sale is this vast, there are a few strategies you can go into it with. First, you can stock up on essentials that you desperately need to replace—white tanks, jeans, tees, you get the gist. This way, you’ll have quality pieces that’ll likely last until next year’s sale. Second, you can shop for the incoming season. Spring hasn’t quite sprung yet, but it’s knocking on our door, and so are the dozens of floral dress sales we’re eyeing. Third (our favorite), you can buy a big-ticket item you’ve been dreaming of. Prada sunglasses and Staud bags, we’re looking at you.
Also, we get it. If you want to go with your gut and buy whatever speaks to you in the moment, we totally understand. A sale this good, this big and this rare calls for that kind of Treat Yoself mentality. We all deserve to channel Donna and Tom from ‘Parks & Rec’ for at least one day a year.
Below, we’ve gathered up some of the best designer discounts included in Saks Fifth Avenue’s Friends & Family sale. Move that mouse quick as you gander, though. Some of the best deals are already starting to sell out.
