Retail therapy feels a lot less like a waste of money when you can shop discounts as opposed to paying full price for items.
And department stores such as Belk provide that feel-good experience, simply because there is such a load of great stuff to find here and they’ve got plenty on sale.

When you feel like giving into that shopping addiction and want to stay within a budget, here’s what to do.
- Look for coupon offers.
The average shopper saves about $25 with a Belk coupon within one shopping trip. How much you can save depends on the value of your coupon, and Belk coupons vary from 5% to more than 50% off retail price, sometimes even including clearance.
- Shop when BOGO.
With BOGO deals of buy one, get one free or buy one, get one 50% off, you can boost your wardrobe because these Belk sales usually include storewide merchandise.
Even when they only have these promotions in select categories or select brands, it’s still going to be a decent bargain. Just think of your next favorite thing to do after shopping, say enjoying good food (?) – wouldn’t it be great to have extra savings for that?
- Wait for end of season.
Belk runs huge sales at the end of each season when discounts are as much as 50% off original price with an extra 30% off select items, so that’s up to 80% discounts for quality brands.
Wait for end of season if you can to get your summer/winter clothing because there’s no better sale running than at these times of year.
