There’s no better way to digest your turkey than to surf the web shopping. We usually acknowledge Black Friday as most hyped shopping day of the season, but this season seems to be better than most. As retailers have taken to phasing in brands to the discounting season, there seems to always be something good to buy.

Specifically right now, you can find attractive discounts on Balenciaga, The Row, and Burberry. Expect to see a lot more designers added to sale sections starting on December 1. For now, we have our favorite Black Friday sales below are retailers worth keeping an eye on. You can bet that the deals and the selection will continue to increase.

Saks Fifth Avenue
There are so many promotions at Saks Fifth Avenue that it’s starting to feel like Macy’s. It’s confusing but worth sorting out because the deals are actually really good. It’s worth noting that there might <wink> be an additional flash sale savings. It’s worth highlighting that S Max Mara, Carolina Herrera, Balmain, Chloe, Lafayette 148 will be added to the sale selection starting on Saturday. Right now, all beauty is 15% off, which means it’s time to load up on your Baccarat fragrance and La Mer creams. Click here to see all the best Saks deals that are available now.

Ssense
Can’t exactly put our finger on why but Ssense has disrupted the online shopping ecosystem. Many think it’s the fancy collaborations or editorial style but I just think it’s as simple as listing all the designers in once column that makes the shopping experience different. It’s a throwback to the ease of Craig’s List. There is a reason why some things just work. Ssense sales have a an interesting style with its ‘Private Sale’ exclusiveness. It’s also peculiar how things are added to the sale and so quickly removed. You can click here to see and read more about the Ssense sale.

Shopbop
When I need more everyday wear I look to Shopbop. Right now you can save an additional 15-30% off with the code HOLIDAY. The extra discount code is valid through Saturday.

Chanel is one of the hardest brands to track during the markdown season. The company is secretive and riddled with rules that are always changing. We have come to learn that this season, Chanel’s bi-annual sale will open to the public on December 2.

The Chanel sale is be comprised of past-season merchandise with a discount of 40% off. This season, the sale selection will consist of 20A and 20B collections. The sale doesn’t include any bags or leather goods. Shoppers can expect to find discounts on shoes, jewelry, scarves, and various small accessories.

Unfortunately, I cannot share the contact information of salespeople at various stores. Any time I do, their jobs are threatened. Feel free to search the blog for contacts I’ve used in prior “Chanel Private Sale” posts.

Below are examples of some of the items included in this season’s markdown. We will continue to add more photos as they become available. Sale pictures can be anonymously sent to lila@madisonavespy.wpengine.com.
