With Prime Day over, I've been hunting across the web for the best deals from retailers other than the big A. As it happens, Nike is holding an awesome back to school sale that's great whether you're a student or not.

Nike's sale takes up to 40% off a range of sneakers, tees, jackets and more. This is a great time to shop some high-quality activewear. Right now the Nike Invincible 3 is on sale for $135 at Nike ($45 off with code "SPORT25.") They're some of the best running shoes we've tested, especially if you value cushiony comfort underfoot.

Some deals require a membership, but it's free to sign up. Register for a Member account and use discount code "SPORT25" on eligible items to score this discount. And for more, see the items from $9 I'd buy in Lululemon's 'We Made Too Much' section.
