Post-Mother’s day typically begins the Summer discount season. After there’s only about 6 or 7 weeks left before retailers need to start making room on the floor for new Fall merchandise. Specials and sales to consider this week include: Mini Boden b Buy 3, Get 1 Free sale; Pumpkin-Patch Mid-Season sale – save up to 40%; American Girl’s furniture $15 off sale; Lands End $3 shipping (only one more day); and Hanna Andersson’s Best of Summer sale.

- Both the 2006 and 2007 Holiday outfits are 50-60% off. These typically sell very well on-line in November and December. There are still several sizes available in both styles.
