If partaking in a bit of retail therapy isn't already on your list of things to do over the long weekend, it totally should be. Not only is MLK Day a great time to support black-owned brands, it also sees a bunch of your go-to brands and retailers—from Abercrombie & Fitch to Nordstrom—offer *major* markdowns on items you've had your eye on. And when I say items you've had your eye on, I mean everything from the must-have Barbour Cordelia jacket ($430; $258) to the editor-approved Saatva Classic mattress ($1,399; $1,099), which secured a 94 out of 100 in a PureWow100.

That said, I wouldn't blame you if you cleared your whole calendar to shop the best MLK sales. But if you're anything like me, you'll want to get your shopping done ASAP, which is why I took the liberty of finding 15 deals you don't want to miss this weekend, including a super rare discount on the coveted Away Carry-On Flex that's perfect for your upcoming winter vacay. Scroll on to find all the details you need to shop and save big during your three-day weekend.

Whether you're shopping for a new mattress or some comfortable jeans, there's an MLK sale with your name written all over it. No need to go searching for one, though—below, I present all the details you need to know about the 20 best MLK sales happening this weekend.

  • Abercrombie & Fitch: New year, new wardrobe! A&F is slashing up to 50 percent off everything through Jan. 22.

  • Birdies: PureWow editors are obsessed with Birdies footwear, and I think you will be too, especially once I tell you that you can save up to 50 percent off the brand's sleekest styles for a limited time.

  • Litter-Robot: There are very few things PureWow cat parents love as much as their kitties, but one of them is their Litter-Robot. And this weekend, you can take $50 off bundle packages.
  • lululemon: Stock up on athleticwear at lululemon while its 'We Made Too Much Section' features specials you don't want to miss. (I'm buying this Iridescent Everywhere belt bag as we speak.)

If you've ever wondered if Barbour jackets are worth the hype, PureWow Fashion Editor Abby Hepworth has the tea: "I have owned and worn my Beaufort jacket for nearly eight years, and it still looks and feels as wonderful as the day I got it," she shared in her review. I think it's safe to say this polyester style (with fancy faux-horn buttons!) is no exception. It even comes with a belt that cinches in the waistline, so a boxy fit is out of the question. And if all that doesn't convince you to buy the quilted masterpiece now, perhaps the fact that the brand is *Kate Middleton-approved* will seal the deal (literally).

If you've got a baby on board, you definitely won't want to drive past this deal on the top-rated Nuna car seat. Shoppers claim that it's "worth the hype" due to its immense versatility and dedication to safety. (The brand even offers 45-minute appointments with Nuna child safety technicians to offer installation guidance!) More importantly, the car seat is suitable for children from birth through toddlerhood. Yes, you read that right. The seat adjusts to ten positions and converts from back-facing to front-facing as your child grows, supporting up to 65 pounds. I can keep going on about how the five-point harness is designed to be adjusted with one hand (a blessing for parents who literally have their hands full), but I bet you want to just add it to your cart, so I'll leave you to it.

Given that they've earned more than 1,900 rave reviews, I can see why everyone is rushing to buy these high-waisted jeans on sale. But here's why you should: Besides the fact that they're made from the brand's vintage stretch cotton fabric, they feature additional room through the hip and thigh, so you get ultimate curve-hugging comfort. You don't just have to take my word for it, though. One reviewer confirms, "As someone who struggles with the gap in the waist and the butt area being too constricting, these fit nearly perfect." So, could these be your new favorite pair of jeans? There's only one way to find out.

A tennis bracelet is one of the most timeless and versatile accessories, and if it's as high-quality as this beauty, there's no question whether you (or your lucky Valentine's Day giftee, perhaps?) will wear it until the end of time. It's available in various sizes (small, average and large, to be exact) and two metal types (rhodium-plated sterling silver and 14K yellow gold-plated sterling silver), so gold and silver girlies can get in on this deal. But the custom-cut emerald-shaped faux diamonds are what really make this tennis bracelet worth every penny—and I'm not the only one who thinks so. One reviewer writes, "This is a special bracelet. The comfort, the elegance and the beauty is hard to describe. Love the different shapes of the diamonds."

Want to stop scooping your cat's messes for good? Well, there's no question whether you should invest in a Litter-Robot. Thanks to a unique litter-sifting technology that rotates and drops cat poop into a waste bin at the bottom of the machine, you won't have to scoop or rake up your cat's messes again. Just dump the bag (it will alert you when to do this), and the optional OdorTrap system reduces and neutralizes odors while providing a clean bed of litter each time your cat does their business. While one PureWow freelance writer is a fan of the Litter-Robot 4 that she tested for a PureWow100, the deal on this Litter-Robot 3 Connect warranty bundle—which includes the device plus a three-year protection plan—is just too good to pass up.

Going on a winter vacay or spring break adventure? It wouldn't be a bad idea to secure new luggage—especially while Away is having a secret sale featuring discounts of up to 40 percent. It may sound too good to be true, but trust me, this sale is so real you can score this coveted Carry-On Flex for as low as $276 right now. The rolling carry-on case includes everything you’d want in a piece of luggage, from an interior compression system to 360-degree spinner wheels. It's also designed with a durable, lightweight shell and an underside grab handle to place it in the overhead compartment without any help from the flight attendant. But if you ask me, the Flex feature, which provides an extra 2.25 inches of space for all those purchases you'll make on your trip, is what makes it worth every penny and then some.

New year, fit you? Even if you just want to look like you work out, I *highly* recommend stocking up on these Align pants. Now, I can talk about how they're designed to hug every curve and wick away sweat so you can stay cool and comfortable during your yoga class, but you'll really just fall in love with how soft they are. And don't even get me started on the nylon and Lycra elastane style's subtle shine that'll make you stand out in the best way possible wherever you go. That said, their hidden waistband pocket may be the least exciting thing about them, and that's saying something!

If you've been looking for a sign (or sale) to buy this celeb-approved device, which vibrates, warms and emits red light and galvanic current in order to help smooth and brighten skin, as well as blur fine lines and wrinkles, this is it! Just let me explain: It's not every day that you can score this must-have for under $140, and PureWow Senior Commerce Editor Stephanie Maida can vouch for its ability to transform your skin texture in no time. For her, it only took two weeks (which you can read all about in her review), but who knows? It could work even faster on you.

Whether you're in the market for a new handbag or want to treat yourself to something this weekend, you should hop on this deal. The effortlessly elegant bag is made of Spazzolato leather with a sleek shine that won't go unnoticed. Better yet, it has a detachable strap that takes it from a shoulder bag to a crossbody in .5 seconds. But does it have pockets? Heck, yes, but here's why one buyer doesn't regret buying this style: "This bag is beautiful, especially the fact you can fit so many things in it!"

Have you been wanting to invest in an under-desk treadmill? I don't blame you—they are the secret to getting your steps in without leaving the house in cold weather, after all. Well, good news: This option (which comes highly recommended by more than 400 buyers!) is super affordable and has all the bells and whistles. And when I say all the bells and whistles, I mean it has variable speeds up to 3.8 miles per hour, is able to show you all your metrics via its accompanying app *and* is equipped with multiple vibration modes that can help both stimulate and relax your muscles. Not to mention, it clocks in at just 39 inches by 21 inches by 19.6 inches, so it should fit under your standing desk, in a corner or wherever you envision it in your space, no problem.

If you're head over heels (uh, flats) about ballet flats, first of all—same. Second of all, you'll definitely want to add these velvet beauties to your cart. PureWow VP of Editorial Content Candace Davison reviewed them for a PureWow100 and swears they're the most comfortable flats she's ever worn. "I’ve rocked everything from $170+ Rothy’s to $15 Target and Old Navy pairs of ballet flats, and over time, every pair digs into the back of your heel and/or rubs into your fourth and pinky toes, creating blisters," she shares. "But surprisingly, that hasn’t been the case with Birdies. The flexible, seven-layer footbed truly felt like I was wearing cushy slippers." Needless to say, you can't go wrong with these shoes, especially since you can snag them for a steal right now.

I'm a sucker for a striped sweater that I can wear to the office and beyond, so I don't think I need to tell you why I'm drooling over this deal. Instead, I'll talk about why you should be, too. First of all, this style is made from a blend of recycled cashmere and wool, resulting in a relaxed fit. Secondly, the sweater has a mock neck, meaning it should keep you warm and toasty during your commute. While you can't go wrong with any color combination, this cabernet stripe is on-trend, so what are you waiting for? Add it to your cart!

comfortable reading chair is a *must* in any home. When it comes to this masterpiece designed by none other than Sand & Stable, I bet you'll find any excuse to curl up in it. It nails the mid-century modern look with a kiln-dried wood frame, brown finish and splayed legs. But here's the review that made me want to buy it: "This is one of the best items on this site I’ve bought so far that’s also not going to break the bank. It’s easy to build, very comfortable and it looks like a chair from Crate & Barrel. Really good quality." No wonder it has more than 3,000 5-star reviews (and counting).

I must admit I've been eyeing these sneakers since last year. Now that they're on sale, I couldn't resist adding them to my collection of kicks that will look good with just about anything. And while their Flyknit upper and robust platform makes them super fashionable, other features, like their ZoomX foam midsole and waffle outsole, contribute to their durability and all-around comfort, whether you're running errands or literally running.

If you don't know this by now, let me be the first to tell you that Saatva mattresses are unlike any other on the market. Everything from their ingenious layered designs to their perfect blend of softness, firmness and cooling technology makes them super comfortable to sleep on. So, it totally makes sense why PureWow readers are fans of the brand's Classic hybrid bed, which Senior Editor Dana Dickey tested out and *adored.* In her review of it, she raved that it helped her get to sleep faster and wake up so much more refreshed each day. But that's not even half of it; it's also coated in a botanical, antimicrobial treatment to prevent mold and bacterial growth (meaning you can plan on using it for a long time to come). Since Saatva is knocking up to $300 off the masterpiece for a limited time, I can't think of a better time to try it for yourself.
