Perks and Rec: Hop in, we're going shopping

Picture this: you’re in seventh grade, and your mom just dropped you off at the mall with your friends. The plan is to grab a snack at the food court and then hit up all your favorite stores. We’re reliving that experience today, except now you can do it from your couch. So go get a soft pretzel and come back to this email — we’re going shopping.

Our first stop is Nordstrom, whose spring sale is on through Sunday. I'm looking for a beach vacation outfit, like this top from & Other Stories and some white Levi's jeans. There's also tons of activewear on sale, and House of CB's dresses are marked down if you need a nicer dress.

Next, we're headed over to KitchenAid to get the best stand mixer we've ever tested. The KitchenAid Artisan Series stand mixer is $70 off today, and is a great investment for bakers and cooks tired of mixing things by hand.

One last stop before mom comes to pick us up: Solo Stove. Save up to $290 on fire pits that we love, along with up to 45% off of accessories.

All right, it's time to go. Hope you enjoyed our shopping trip.
