This weekend marks the final few days of summer, which officially ends during the autumnal equinox on Sunday, September 22. Though our days of sporting open-toed shoes this year are numbered, we're not quite ready to retire our favorite sundresses yet. Because while summer might be winding down, savvy shoppers know that some of the most major discounts of the season are just heating up. Naturally, we're keeping track of all of the big sales to help you find the very best deals out there.

The end-of-summer season means that brands are changing out their inventory and putting their summer stock on clearance. Some retailers even layer additional sales events on top of said past season merchandise to steepen the discounts.
