Everything Worth Buying During Ban.do’s Warehouse Sale

Maximalists, rejoice: Ban.do is offering up to 80 percent off during its warehouse sale, which ends on August 16. Like the retailer’s general inventory, the discounted items are all remarkably colorful and often delightfully patterned. (Is anyone looking for a floral travel pillow? It’s in here, deeply marked down.) I sifted through the 20 pages of stock to find all the very best deals on everything from back-to-school essentials to statement fashion pieces to pool accessories. And for your convenience, I grouped all the deals by category.
It wouldn’t be a Ban.do sale without plenty of deals on bags from Baggu. I chose a few of my favorites, starting with a classic: the nylon shoulder bag. The machine-washable purse is big enough to hold a 14-inch laptop.
There’s also one of our favorite fanny packs, Baggu’s surprisingly roomy hands-free bag. This one has two separate zipper pockets, but there’s an even more affordable one if you’re willing to sacrifice on storage space.
My last Baggu pick is this floral tote that’s made from cotton canvas. It’s sturdy and perfect for coffee runs and lounging in the park.
We rarely see Baboon to the Moon on sale, so I was delighted to find this colorful fanny pack hidden within the sale for more than 20 percent off. It’s big enough to carry all your essentials — wallet, sunglasses, keys, and more — and comes with a lifetime warranty.
In signature Ban.do style, this travel pillow is covered in a variety of flowers that will pop next to your carry-on bag.
We’ve long loved Ban.do for its colorful back-to-school essentials, and I was especially taken by this notebook, which has wide lines for writing and a spot for the date. But we’re not the only fans — singer and actress Brandy loves using this mini-notebook for journaling, too.
If you haven’t found the right lunch box yet, consider this hot-pink one. It has an insulated interior and a charming yellow strap for easy carrying.
I also found this heavily discounted backpack from Vans. It has everything you might want in a backpack — including two water-bottle pockets, a laptop sleeve, and plenty of pockets for organization.
If you prefer a soft shower caddy over a hard one, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a cuter one than this.
My sister gave me this tumbler as a gift when I was in college, and it was perfect for taking my iced coffee from class to class.
Like Baggu, Farm Rio is showing up and showing out during Ban.do’s warehouse sale. These baby-blue pants, which are 100 percent linen, have a colorful belt that will pair nicely with a white blouse.
This jewel-toned maxi-dress caught my eye, too. With its subtle scalloped detailing and 100 percent cotton construction, the dress is tempting me a bit too much.
There’s also this fruit-speckled midi-dress that has a boxy cut-out back. (Just note: It’s even cheaper on Farm Rio’s website in some sizes.)
This pair of Vans is one of the best items I found hidden in the treasure trove that is Ban.do’s warehouse sale. Ben Van Leeuwen calls them a “cross between Vans and a big, bulky shoe” and says he can easily walk ten miles in them.
These pastel overalls would make for a fun summer-to-fall transition piece. They’d look cute paired with a long-sleeve shirt in the fall and your favorite summertime tank during warmer months.
Speaking of that summertime tank …
These dainty mules, which are discounted in both a shiny metallic and a muted clay, will let your feet breathe while temperatures fluctuate well into the fall.
I like the ruffled detailing on this pastel cami. It’s made from a blend of cotton and linen and has a matching skirt if sets are your thing.
You can usually find some stellar deals on Wrangler denim during Ban.do’s sale events. This time, these dark-wash cropped jeans caught my attention. They’ve got that coveted wide-leg fit that Gen-Z girls love nowadays.
I also spotted these Wrangler overalls, which were one of my favorite discounted items during Ban.do’s Prime Day–adjacent sale.
With summer nearing its final days, there are plenty of deals on pool accessories that’ll be just as fun when next summer comes around. First up, there’s this mini-hammock made for lounging in the pool.
I also love this flamingo-shaped floatie.
Finally, I couldn’t resist this strawberry-shaped float that’s perfect for lounging.
For those who prefer lounging next to the pool, there’s this colorful Jenga-esque tower that measures about a foot and a half.
And finally, this sourdough-bread-making kit that includes everything you need to make a sourdough starter and shape your very own loaf. My sourdough starter recently died, so I take this deal as an excuse to nurture a new one.
