Black Friday in June? Old Navy's $1 Flip-Flop Sale on Saturday
The famous sale draws throngs of customers who share a passion for not wearing socks.
There are two events every year that have people lining up outside Old Navy when the doors open: the $1 flip-flop sale and the $15 sweater sale.
And since it's not winter yet, that can only mean one thing: It's flip-flop time this Saturday.
The mere idea of something for $1, let alone highly functional summer footwear, never fails to attract throngs of people to the store. Think Black Friday in June.

The $1 deal will include sizes for the whole family, but wedges and embellished, printed and leather styles are not included.
And a little tip from bargain hunters: If they are out of your size or preferred color, buy another size and exchange it once the stock is replenished. Old Navy generally has flip-flops in stock through August.
