\"fathers-day\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With\u00a0Father’s Day weekend rapidly approaching, retailers have already started rolling out a rash of early sales during the first week of June to make sure you have time to order something for your Dad<\/a>. In years past, Father’s Day\u00a0sales are usually combined with gifts for graduates since most graduations around the country are happening this month.<\/p>\n

Be aware that many of these sales are meant to capture the attention of gift hunters, not necessarily deal hunters<\/em>. This means sales aren’t usually as aggressive as shopping holidays like Memorial Day or Black Friday.<\/em><\/span>\u00a0However, you will see some\u00a0discounts on items that appeal to the majority of men such as hand and power tools, home theater audio and video components as well as men’s apparel.<\/p>\n

O<\/span>f course, we aren’t just going to provide you with a few quips about what product categories you should buy right now or wait to buy in a few months. Our veteran deal editors have started analyzing each Father’s Day sale in order to evaluate the quality. We don’t want you to spend your hard-earned money on items that simply aren’t deals.<\/p>\n

When we evaluate a sale, we are approaching it with two questions in mind:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Is it better than\u00a0the store’s<\/strong>\u00a0regular sales during the\u00a0preceding\u00a0months or the upcoming months?<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Are there any outstanding deals, a step above direct competitors?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    <\/div><\/div>\n

    Combined with our expert knowledge on current product prices and our deal history data, we use these two questions to assign each retailer sale a letter grade (A, B, C, D and F). We will also tell you why it’s either excellent or lacking in substance.\u00a0(We will continue to update these lists as Father’s Day approaches<\/em>.)<\/p>\n

    While these grades are specific to the overall quality of the sale, we’ve also cherry picked the best deals from the sales (Graded C or higher<\/strong>) in order to help you focus in on specific products.<\/p>\n

    Kohl’s<\/a>,B<\/strong><\/span>,Sales are typical of discounts this time of year – however stackable coupon codes bump it up a grade.\u00a0Notable Deals:\u00a0Up to 70% off Men’s Apparel + $10 off $30 + Extra 15% off<\/a><\/p>\n

    Lowes<\/a>,B<\/strong><\/span>,The sales match previous prices as of late – however the additional coupons are aggressive for this time of year.\u00a0Notable Deals:\u00a0Up to 50% off Special Value Items + Extra $10 off $50<\/a><\/p>\n

    Newegg<\/a>,C<\/strong>,Prices are average if you want older technology or refurbished products. Notable Deals: $25 Folding Laptop Table<\/a><\/p>\n

    Oakley Vault<\/a>,B<\/strong><\/span>,A handful of\u00a0steep discounts on in-season items like sunglasses and sandals – Oakley does run similar sales occasionally. Notable Deals: Up to 75% off on Father’s Day Gifts<\/a><\/p>\n

    Verizon Wireless<\/a>,C<\/strong>,Offering $100 off smartphones $200 or more and free overnight shipping. Same as their Mother’s Day sale.\u00a0Notable Deals: $100\u00a0iPhone 5s (16GB)<\/a><\/p>\n
