If you’re also indulging in some retail therapy after the week we’ve had — welcome! I’ve been spending way too much time on Depop for the past 72 hours, and I’m eyeing the $99 Christy Dawn dress the brand dropped earlier this week. (It’s half off, which is an unbelievable discount.) I also did some perusing at REI and Backcountry for some on-sale outerwear and innerwear.
Sur La Table has two big sales going on right now: its Thanksgiving Prep sale, which ends on Monday, and its early Black Friday sale. The former includes holiday-specific tools like rolling pins and turkey brine, while the latter is where you’ll find year-round necessities like mixing bowls and tea towels. Speaking of Black Friday, while there aren’t many sales worth your time just yet, I’ve found a few early Black Friday sales that are already live and won’t be getting any better if you’d like to get your shopping done while everything is still in stock.

To wear under sweaters or on early-morning jogs.
Backcountry is having a huge sale on insulated coats, mittens, and more. I found an incredible deal on this North Face jacket that comes in sizes 1X through 3X.
This Cotopaxi for kids comes in three colors, and the XL could fit small adults! (Note: It’s even cheaper at the brand’s website but available only in the purple option.)
Lots of cozy styles are up to 40 percent off at Hanna Andersson this weekend — though this fuzzy jacket with bear ears is probably my favorite.
The ear-free version for older kids is equally adorable.
Why, yes, I did find even more bear-print clothing for babies on sale! This time, it’s a set of fleecy pants that shakes out to just over $3 a pair.
Big Bud Press has discounted this stripy version of its work pants down to $98. They come in red and yellow (pictured here), blue and purple, and yellow and green.
If you, like me, often balk at the price of Christy Dawn’s pieces, I have good news: The brand’s organic-cotton Dawn dress is now just $99 in six colors (petite and plus sizes included!). For those who want to do some more shopping, Christy Dawn is also having a “buy more, save more” sale: Orders $300 and up get 15 percent off, orders $550 and up get 20 percent off, and orders $700 and up get 25 percent off.

There’s an ideal-for-entertaining set of glassware (and our best overall drinking glasses).
You may not have a Dutch oven from Staub in the budget, but how about a quartet of mugs?
