Sales Roundup

Four notable sales today:

  • Exquisite Trimmings, an online retailer of high-end men’s accessories, is having a sale from now until the end of the weekend. Customers can take 25% off with the discount code 25OFF. That’s on top of the ~20% discount they give for customers who don’t have to pay VAT (European taxes). Shipping is also free. Note the code works on everything except hangers and issues of The Rake. That still leaves plenty of things, however, such as neckties, pocket square, and gloves from high-quality makers around the world (including Drake’s, Rubinacci, and Dents). The code even works on stuff that has already been marked down from a previous sale. 
  • Brooks Brothers just dropped stuff in their sale section to 70% off. The selection is slim since it’s all leftovers from last summer, but there are a few things here and there. These extra-slim-fit linen shirts, for example, are on sale for $40. You obviously can’t wear them now but, you know … summer will come again. 
  • I get most of my cedar shoe trees from Sierra Trading Post. You sign up for their DealFlyer newsletter, wait for those 35%-40% discount codes to drop, and buy as many pairs of shoes you want for ~$11 a pop. However, those models don’t work so well for boots. For boot trees, I shop at Cedarville Store, who right now is having a 20% off sale with the check out code Snow (expires Tuesday). Note, if you only need one pair, it could be cheaper to go through Zappos, who will ship them for free.  
  • FInally, LL Bean is having a 30% off sale on their famous “Bean Boots,” which rarely get discounted more than 10%. Their offer is good for today only.
