WORTH THE TRIP
If the economy has put a damper on your travel plans, you can find a piece of the far-flung at Devi Home, which has marked down all of its merchandise 30 percent as part of its summer clearance sale. Among the Buddha statues and gorgeous antique cabinets are accents including richly colored silk brocade throw pillows ($29.40, with the discount); intricate tablecloths ($23.52-$29.40); and exquisite, hand-painted Tibetan boxes ($80.85). The store also carries beds, duvet sets, bookcases, lamps, and more. Devi Home is at 1134 Washington St., Boston, 617-556-0099. www.devihome.comINTERMIX AND MATCH
Over the past weeks, we’ve been watching the sale section at the back of Intermix grow incrementally larger, as the store gradually makes way for fall merchandise. On a recent visit, we found markdowns, some steep, on Missoni scarves, Ivy and Splendid tops, J Brand and 7 for All Mankind jeans, and lots more. The sale will likely continue throughout July, we’re told. Intermix is at 186 Newbury St., Boston, 617-236-5172. www.intermixonline.comGO TO THE SOURCE
If you’re disenchanted with e-mail and prefer the permanence of handwritten notes, get to Paper Source, where a summer clearance sale has select merchandise marked down 50-75 percent.

While you’re planning your weekend, make sure to stop in at Stel’s, whose second-ever warehouse sale will have A.P.C., Alexander Wang, Nom de Guerre, Robert Geller, and more at 75 percent off ticketed prices. Yes, the clothing is from seasons past, but with a markdown this hefty, who cares? Sale starts at 11 a.m. tomorrow and goes through Sunday, though we’re guessing the pickings will slim down fast. Stel’s is at 334 Newbury St., Boston, 617-262-3348. www.stelsinc.comHOME IN ON SAVINGS
