The Deal: Shop Gap women’s coats on sale now.

The Lowdown: It always pays to get the most out of last year’s coat, then replace it midseason with something great from all the January winter clearance sales.

Case in point: this sale at Gap features up to 70% off on a selection that is, while somewhat limited, still classic enough to carry through to the next year. If you’ve already picked up your coat for this year, make a mental note to hold out for the deals next season (file it right there next to “skinny jeans are NOT the way to make your thighs look thinner, no matter what the salesgirl says”). If you’re in the market, however, we’d suggest these as smart picks:

Double Breasted Peacoat, $69.99

Belted Wool Coat, $39.99

Warmest Puffer Jacket, $49.99
