At Home’s weekly deals are a great time to stock up and save. If you’re waiting to make a purchase, you can get new sales every week.
The big sale this week is on rug sets. For $29.99, you can choose from six different rug styles, all measuring 60 inches long by 45 inches wide with a half inch pile height. The colors come in grays, beiges and blues, which make them ideal for just about any style of room. Two of the styles come with a second smaller rug, perfect if you want one rug for your breakfast nook and one in front of your kitchen sink.
At Home is also running a special on floor lamps, offering two styles in brass and nickel. Both lamps are priced at $29.99, and they make for great additions to any guest room. Measuring at 5 feet tall, these lamps fit easily into a corner and won’t take over a space. If your kid is moving into their first apartment at college, this lamp would make a great housewarming gift.
Now for dorm rooms, you’ll probably want to shop our next entry, but At Home is also running a number of dorm deals — all under $10. It’s worth a look for those dorm room essentials.
Target
Next month, college freshmen across the country will be moving into their dorm rooms — and Target is ready for all of them. Target is now running its beg home sale, offering $40 off when you spend $100 using the word COLLEGE. If you’re getting ready to move your kid into a dorm room, then you won’t want to miss this sale.
Target has all the dorm room essentials on sale, from furniture to towels to rugs. Living in the dorm room can take a beating on your kids’ belongings. They’ll spill ramen on chairs and soda on their beds when they’re up late studying. The dorm washers and dryers will likely take a toll on their sheets and towels. All this to say: There’s no point in investing a lot of money in dorm furniture. Pick up the essentials on sale and be glad if they last through all four years.
One of the best sale categories at Target right now is definitely the storage options.

Target has stylish storage baskets as well as carts on wheels and even closet bars on wheels. Both can be useful in dorm rooms with small closets and cabinets.
But don’t forget about furniture. Most dorms come with a bed, desk and maybe a cabinet. It will be up to you to provide extra shelves, chairs and maybe even a TV stand. At Target, you’ll find cozy folding chairs in fun colors, storage ottomans, lamps and bookcases.

These sales are only happening online — no need to leave your couch. Here’s what’s happening in online home improvement sales.
Joybird
Known for their direct-to-consumer model and mid-century modern aesthetic, Joybird offers furniture for the living and dining rooms as well as the bedrooms. With bright colors and plenty of customization options, the company has something for every room in your home.
Right now, Joybird has its Sizzling Summer sale going on, offering 30% off sofas, chairs, sectionals, tables and bedroom furniture. Maybe the best deal on the site is the range of sectionals available. You may think of sectionals as large, chunky furniture, but Joybird offers a wide range of looks. Some sofas have an additional chaise attached, which can be great for small spaces in need of a little extra seating.
Mid-century modern isn’t the only style. Joybird also has modular sofas that can be configured to your exact specifications. That’s one of the benefits of the company. You can order the sofa to get exactly what you want.
Not sure what kind of fabric you’d like? Joybird will send you a swatch kit free of charge. You can sample as many fabrics as you’d like and see which fabrics will go best with your existing furniture or rug. The kits ship out the next day after placing an order, so they arrive quickly.
Wayfair
You can’t talk about online sales without including Wayfair in the conversation. The online giant is known for their sales, so here’s what’s happening with them this week.
Summer bedding is on sale at Wayfair, and every part of the bed is on sale. Sealy mattresses are now up to 30% off. Available in six sizes, these mattresses provide a good night’s sleep and plenty of comfort. If you plan to turn your college-bound kid’s room into a guest bedroom, this is a great time to get a mattress for less.
Once you have your new mattress, you’ll need new sheets and a comforter set. There are plenty of 400 thread-count sheet sets available in bright colors and fun patterns — perfect for giving a bedroom a fresh look. These comforter sets aren’t just for the comforter itself. The sets come with pillow shams, and some even come with accent pillows.
Of course, the bedroom has more than just the bed. Wayfair’s sale also includes curtains as well accent pillows and throws. These fun little accents make bedrooms feel cozy and warm, and they’re great for guest bedrooms. If your guest gets cold in the middle of the night, they can grab an extra pillow or blanket without having to search for one — or freeze.
The sale ends August 9.
Lamps Plus
Technically, Lamps Plus, one of the largest lighting retailers in the country, does have stores where you could find this sale, but unless you want to make the trek all the way out to Austin, then it’s best to check out this sale online.
Lamps Plus is holding its summer sale, and this is a great time to replace lighting in your home. The company is offering great deals on all styles and types of lighting from chandeliers to outdoor sconces.
Some people don’t like to take a chance by buying lighting online, and that may be true if you’re looking for a big statement piece for your dining room or living room. But not all of the lighting in your home needs to be high-end — think about the lighting in your laundry room or your walk-in closet — and you can take more of a chance with the style to see if you like it. Lamps Plus has a number of flush and semi-flush mounts for your ceiling. In the bathroom, a new bath bar could give your bathroom a brand new look.
Many of the products on the website ship for free and have free returns, so if it doesn’t fit or you just don’t like it, your order can go right back without any issues.
How pressure washing services can save you money in the long run
When you put a new set of sheets on your bed, how do they look? Bright and clean? Ready for sweet dreams? But what would those sheets look like if you never changed or washed them? Probably pretty gross and maybe with a few holes in some places. They’ll need to be replaced. Well, your house is kind of like your sheets: If you don’t take care of it, then you’ll have to make repairs much sooner than if you had washed and changed them regularly.
Hiring an expert in pressure washing services is just one way to take good care of your home and minimize how often you need to make repairs and pay other big costs. For example, experts in pressure washing services will spray mold and mildew to get it off your home. If the mold was left there to grow, it would probably find its way into your home. If you have mold growing in your walls, it can make you and your family sick and cause massive damage to your home. More than that, it will be expensive to remove the mold and make repairs.
Some homeowners decide they don’t need pressure washing services done by a professional, and they try to do it themselves, but that can end badly. If you use a spray that is too strong, then you could crack your siding, which would allow water to get into your home. That too could cause mold to grow, meaning an even bigger repair bill.
Experts in pressure washing services also know how to spot potential problems with your home, and they could alert you to problems that you didn’t know you had. For example, experts in pressure washing services will first check your home to look for any places where water could end your home. If they find a spot, they’ll let you know, and you can make the repair — before it gets worse.
