Labor Day Weekend signifies the end of summer, and while you might not be thrilled about the impending temperature drop that comes with it, the start of fall — and the bounty of LDW sales that come with it — is the perfect excuse to shop.

Target is just one of countless retailers offering sitewide discounts through September 4, but the retailer’s nearly 230,000 markdowns is unmatched. Even better, Target is a one-stop shop for everything you could possibly need for your seasonal travel plans, plus year-round necessities like comfortable sneakers and cozy layers. Keep scrolling for major savings on things like noise canceling headphones, tablets, rain jackets, luggage, and more.

Finding a pair of sneakers that looks and feels the part is difficult. You don’t want to skimp on style but you don’t want to sacrifice comfort either — especially when traveling. These vegan leather sneakers, however, manage to accomplish both requirements. One reviewer raved over the “comfortable and durable” sneakers, calling them the “cheapest pair of shoes” they own, but their “favorite” nonetheless.

This classic black Levi’s Long Sleeve Trucker Jacket is a great transitional staple that will make packing for questionable fall weather that much easier. One shopper said that the denim material was “thick” enough to provide “good protection,” but “light enough” to still “feel comfortable.” Another customer praised its versatility, and said that it was “casual” yet “looks very put together” when styled with a sweatshirt or collared shirt underneath.

The only kind of pants I’ll wear on an airplane are ones with an elastic waistband, which is why it’s important to invest in a good pair (or 12) of stylish sweats. We’ve got our eyes on the Boho Lightweight Joggers, and these Lands’ End Starfish Mid-Rise Slim Pants that you’ll be able to wear straight off the plane and to your destination in style.
