5 Deals You Need to Know Today: Clearance and Clearout — A Tale of Two Sales
If you don't save money in today's top sale, you will be forever referred to as Nerdstrom. We don't make the rules. Check out this offer and more in our roundup of the five best deals we found over the last 24 hours.
Top Apparel Deal
Nordstrom Rack Clearance Deals
Up to 94% offThis product image for a Topshop Turtleneck Sweater is fascinating, because what is she doing? Throwing away a black handkerchief? Pretending to have a badly-made crow at her beck and call? Her complete lack of interest in whatever it is makes it all the more compelling. We shall never know. Luckily, our Nordstrom Rack Guess the Fake Brand game does have a knowable answer, but it's up to you to get it right. Otherwise, I'll fix you with a steely glare. Four brands: three are real and taken from this sale, one is fake. Guess! The Fake! Brand!

It's 4: Kev J Miph, which all the Dan Brown characters in our audience will have immediately noticed is just Garfield with all the letters moved up by four.Top Luggage Deal
Rollink Flex Vega Collapsible Suitcase
$40The good ship Rollink has correctly identified that the worst thing about luggage is the way it sits there and stares at you, huge and empty, for the 50 or so weeks of the year it's not in use. And so, this case: you use it, then you bring it home and squash it flat like it's a low-stakes video on one of those hydraulic press YouTube channels. (They're very Old YouTube, in the complete lack of production values and strange obsession, but try telling me this isn't the most compelling video you've seen in a while.) Then, next summer, you open the case up again, and realise you left a T-shirt in there, now perfectly pressed by its year spent stored between the dresser and the wall.
Top Home & Garden Deal
Wayfair 72-Hour Clearout
Up to 60% offLast time I had a 72-hour clearout, it was from eating some bad fish. But that's another story, one that seems unlikely to have much in common with this Wayfair sale, which is presumably just full of discounts and special offers instead of iffy calamari and regret. We're into the final 24 hours of this 3-day sale, so consider the first 48 hours officially cleared out, plus however many hours into Monday we are by the time you read this. And then, when the clock strikes midnight, the clearout will be over, and I'll be safely able to fly home again without causing an international incident. Wait, wrong story again.
Top Shoe Deal
Nike Men's Nike Dunk Low Retro SE Shoes
$61 via code "SPORT"The colors for this shoe are officially known as "Platinum Violet" and "Cave Stone", which sound like names from a wrestling video game that couldn't secure an official license. But these are the magic colors that drop to the low price of $61 via the lesser-spotted Nike coupon. Oh, those coupons used to be plentiful, but now they are like hens' teeth: rare, and kind of scary to think about for very long. Also scary is the idea of paying for shipping, so sign up for a Nike membership to avoid that nightmare. Nothing will save you from the Masticating Hen though. Nothing will save any of us.
Top Sports Deal
Pickleball Deals at Woot
Up to 92% offI have never played Pickleball, and have no real concept of what it is. Is it badminton with the negative connotations of "bad" removed? Is Pickleball Goodminton? I will never know. But I have read the official US rules of Pickleball, and to celebrate these many Woot discounts, you must now identify which of these rules doesn't come from that document. Guess!
- The non-volley zone is commonly referred to as "the kitchen."
- Paddle contact with the ball must not be made above the waist level.
- The 40-yard line is no longer #10. It now falls within the yard line.
- The server's feet may not touch the court.
