Here are six must-buy items that are practical and worth the discounted price over the holiday.

Target

Vera Bradley Suitcase

  • Price: $86.08

This compact suitcase is perfect if you’re planning a trip anytime soon, or need a more reliable carry-on. It weighs around seven pounds, and its hard sides will keep your stuff safe. The interior features two compartments: one is an open compartment with elastic straps, while the other has a zip panel with a mesh zippered pocket. The wheels spin 360 degrees, so you can glide smoothly across airport floors.

Normally, this Vera Bradley suitcase retails for $269, but you’d be able to save a little over $180 this Labor Day weekend, which is such a steal.

Target

Dr. Scholl’s Sneakers

  • Price: $39.99

These sneakers feature insole technology with anatomical cushioning, solid arch support and a stretchy upper that makes them easy to slip on and off without feeling loose. They’re also extremely lightweight, making it easy to pack in your suitcase or backpack for trips. Plus, the soft linings and microsuede are all made from recycled bottles, so it’s eco-friendly, as well.

Target

Roku Streaming Stick 4K

  • Price: $39.99

If you’re still using an old cable package or a clunky smart TV, this is a solid upgrade to consider. The Roku Streaming Stick 4K plugs right into your TV’s HDMI port, and gives you access to all your favorite streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and more. The remote has voice control, and the interface is super easy to navigate, even if you’re not that great with technology.

Target

Dyson Cordless Stick Vacuum

  • Price: $289.00

If your vacuum is heavy and loud, you’ll definitely love this cordless Dyson. It’s lightweight, yet powerful enough to suck up dust, pet hair and crumbs from both hard floors and carpet. The battery lasts around 40 minutes on a full charge, which is usually enough to get through an average-sized home.

Yes, it’s a little pricey even on sale, but the regular price is around $499.99, so you’re still saving over $200. Plus, the vacuum comes with a two-year warranty and lifetime Dyson support, which makes it worth the price.

Target

Warm Flannel Sheet Set

  • Price: $49.99

Winter isn’t here yet, but it’s never too early to prepare for it. This 100% cotton flannel sheet set comes with a fuzzy finish that can keep you warm and comfortable on chilly nights. Also, these sheets come packed in a reusable drawstring bag, which makes them easy to store. You can choose from two sizes: queen and king. The king-size version is currently on sale for $49.99 — $40 off its regular price.
