Presidents Day pops up on our calendar just after we’ve taken down our heart-shaped Valentine’s Day decorations and just before we plan our spring break vacations. But the often-overlooked holiday may offer up significant savings on some of life’s necessities.If you’ve been putting off purchasing a mattress, furniture or major appliance, here’s what you should know about shopping over Presidents Day weekend.What to buy (and skip)Presidents Day is Feb. 20, but sales will start before the holiday and last for at least a few days after. Plan your shopping accordingly, especially if the item you want is in high demand.Furniture tops our list of worthwhile purchases. Historically, department stores discount their home departments during the holiday weekend. Last Presidents Day, J.C. Penney took 40% to 60% off furniture and mattresses, Wayfair discounted home furniture by up to 70% and Target took 25% off rugs and bedding online.
This year, Joss & Main shoppers can use code EXTRA20 between Feb. 15 and 23 to take an additional 20% off home categories, including rugs, outdoor furniture, bedding and wall art.The most amazing President Day sales are on home appliancesIs there mail on Presidents Day? A look at what's closedAppliances will also be a bargain. If you spring for a major purchase, check for free shipping and delivery offers, which could save you a considerable amount.Feb. 15 through 28 at home improvement store Lowe’s select appliances will be up to 30% off.The weekend will be a prime opportunity for savings on mattresses and winter clothing, says consumer psychologist Kit Yarrow, professor emeritus at Golden Gate University and author of Decoding the New Consumer Mind: How and Why We Shop and Buy. She calls Presidents Day an undervalued shopping holiday.Presidents Day sale events offer a chance to nab a discount on something you really need, but think twice before you start spending your Benjamins.
For instance, deals on spring items won’t be so hot. They’re less likely to be discounted than winter products because they’ve just been released.“My advice to shoppers is to think carefully about the item, not just the price,” Yarrow said in an email. “It's all too common to get overly excited about a discount and buy more than you need or something that's not quite right.”Where to goOnce you’ve narrowed down your shopping list, decide where to go. Here are additional deals available over the weekend:Ashley HomeStore: Through Feb. 20, get 25% off online purchases of $3,000 or more, among other savings.
