WASHINGTON — Memorial Day is just around the corner, and it seems like every retailer has a big sale, but are they really good deals?
For the most part, the sales are legit, but you still need to shop for the right items.
Stay away from summer items like grills and summer clothing. Bigger and better deals for those items happen later in the summer.
But if you are looking for mid-weight spring clothing, many retailers are breaking out discounts between 20 and 90 percent.
And one more thing, you don’t always have to wait for Memorial Day weekend for these sales, some are happening now.
