Samples, and specials, and sales, oh my! Do your patriotic duty for the economy and hit the savvy sales this weekend for some sweet steals. Whether it's a soigné skirt or a stunning skirted chaises, there are opportunities a-go-go for divine finds at two of the best events of the weekend—Bethesda Row Boutique Week and the Washington Design Center's Sample Sale.

The second annual Bethesda Row Boutique Week, which spans from Sept. 30-Oct. 6, will be kicking off with a plethora of highly anticipated events and sales for the urban shopaholic. This shopper's paradise will feature the exclusive D.C. premiere of the much beloved film, Dressed, and a special appearance by Barclay Butera, famed interior designer, at Urban Country later this week. bethesdarow.com

Ordinarily an insider-only haven, the Washington Design Center will open their doors to consumers with the return of their sample sale from on Oct. 1 from 10AM to 3PM. Shoppers will enjoy deep discounts on the hottest trends in home furnishings and décor, as well as the expertise of designers who will be available to offer advice or answer any design-related questions. 300 D St. SW, dcdesigncenter.com
