    Updated on: 05/04/23

    We’ve compiled this quick guide to showcase the best things to purchase at a discount in April.

    Spring & Athletic Apparel

    Because Easter is a major shopping holiday in April, Easter dresses for kids, teens, and adults are a popular and often-discounted staple. Along with that, spring apparel like crop tops, light jackets, jumpsuits, sandals, sneakers, hats, and t-shirts are a great buy during major Spring clearance sales from big box retailers like Old Navy and Kohl’s or more niche spots like PrettyLittleThing and Boohoo. On top of those things, look for huge sales on athletic apparel, running shoes, and workout gear.

    It’s that time of year when you go through your closet, garage, and basements to dig out things you no longer need. This tedious process can be made more fun by getting your home organization in check in stylish ways. Buy bins, bookshelves, and filing cabinets to freshen up your most-used spaces. Try watching Marie Kondo on Netflix while you work--her Konmari organization method is sure to inspire.

    As for things to wait on, you’ll want to skip shopping for mattresses in April, since Memorial Day is coming up in May and that’s one of the biggest mattress shopping days all year. Honorable mentions for things to buy in April include clearance winter apparel and early Mother’s Day gifts, which are all also great buys during this month.
