Best Deals in March 2021 (and What to Avoid!)

posted in: Monthly Deals

March is here, and while the weather may be a bit unpredictable, we can grin and brave the storms because spring is coming! In terms of deals, we have big savings on sleep-related items for Sleep Awareness Week. And because March straddles winter and spring, we always see skincare and other beauty discounts as we switch up our beauty routines. Something notable is the lack of travel deals, but there are lots of sales on travel gear that you can take advantage of instead. Here are the best deals for March 2021.

What Not to Buy

Outdoor Gear

Even if you’re seeing spring-like weather, wait until April or May to invest in new patio furniture or camping gear. That’s typically when we see some promotional pricing in this category.

Lingerie

Victoria’s Secret holds its big annual sale in June, and other brands often follow suit. If you’re looking to refresh your fancy underthings, June will likely be a better time to score a deal.
