As we all know by now, face masks have become just another part of our new normal amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the use of a cloth face mask to cover the mouth and nose in public spaces plays a vital role in stopping the spread of coronavirus, as it acts like a barrier and can help stop respiratory droplets from becoming airborne—the main way COVID-19 is transmitted.

If you could use a few more in your rotation, we’ve rounded up a list of the best places to score a reusable, washable mask at a discount. While you won’t find medical-grade versions or N95 masks here, which should be left for healthcare workers, you will find plenty of savings on a variety of popular cloth options, some of which are even equipped with filter pockets or bendable nose pieces (look for these features in our handy callouts at the bottom of each mask description). Keep in mind that due to hygienic reasons, mask purchases are final sale and cannot be returned. Keep scrolling for 16 stores that are currently offering great deals on top-selling face coverings.

1: Save 50%: Athleta
As the best face mask we’ve ever tried, these non-medical coverings from Athleta are a more than solid choice to pick up at regular pricing, let alone on sale. We loved the triple-layered fabric, which provided added protection, comfort and breathability, even in humid weather. Usually $30, this five-pack of holiday-themed masks is currently half off at just $14.99. It features assorted colors, adjustable ear loops and an encased nose wire for a tighter fit.

Shoppers can snag masks for both adults and kids during this sale: For instance, this four-pack of neutral-hued coverings, regularly $25, is on sale for $17.50, while this four-piece collection of Andy & Evan assorted kids’ face masks is discounted down to $11.96 from $19.95. While neither set is medical-grade, both feature a comfy cotton fabric and filter pockets for added protection.

3. Less than $5: Old Navy
Old Navy’s budget-friendly pack of masks were named the “best value” pick in our face mask testing, as we found the soft cotton material to be ultra-comfy and breathable. Its three-layer fabric construction also offers more protection than coverings with a single layer, plus, it’s machine washable to boot. Right now, you can get select holiday-themed and patterned sets for just $4.97 when they usually retail for $12.50.

4. 10% off: Caraa
These stylish Caraa Sport masks come in a pack of five. Made with a nylon exterior and a cotton interior, they’ve got a moldable wire nosepiece that’s embedded into the fabric for a snugger fit. And right now, if you enter coupon code HI-79NVF4 at checkout, you can take 10% off this pack to get it for $22.50. With an average 4.9-star rating from more than 1,300 reviewers, these masks have become a customer-favorite for their adjustable loops and soft cotton fabric.

5. Less than $5: Champion
If you’re looking for a mask to exercise in, this Champion wicking face mask just might do the trick. We found it to be not only easy to breathe in, but also ideal for working out as it helps to wick moisture away from the face (a feature that also makes it great for warmer days). The only catch is that the mask is designed with just one layer of fabric, which makes it slightly less protective than some of the other masks on this list. Once $10, it’s currently on sale for $5, but by entering promo code CHMAB10 at checkout, the price drops to just $4.50.

6. Save 60%: Banana Republic
Banana Republic’s masks come in a set of three and are designed with fully adjustable ear loops and nose wires in order to fit faces both big and small. In our testing, these masks were a middle-of-the-pack performer, and felt fairly protective with two layers of knit material. Although, we found them a bit harder to breathe in than other masks we’ve tested, they remain a big hit amongst Banana Republic customers. And thanks to a limited-time sale at the store, you can nab this three-pack for 60% off at just $10, rather than its usual $25 price tag.
Protection level: Non-medical grade

7. 15% off: MaskClub
Boasting more than 2,000 styles, including popular themes like Hello Kitty, Harry Potter, Sesame Street and more, MaskClub’s fan-favorite face masks are a great choice to get kids (or maybe even adults) excited about wearing a facial covering. When we tested them out, we enjoyed the fun prints and thought the filter pocket was an added bonus, too, though we did find them to be a bit more stifling than others during active pursuits. Usually, they go for $14.99 for a single mask, but shoppers can currently use promo code SHOPMC15 to save 15% on their order, bringing the total cost down to $12.75.

8. 50% off: Koral
Koral is primarily known for its luxury activewear, but that didn’t stop the brand from using its leftover fabric to create a series of comfortable and chic face masks. Made from a mix of polyamide and soft lycra sport, we found these masks to mirror the brand’s activewear styles, being both super soft and very on-trend. While not as snug a fit as we’d have liked, they do have an extra unique property as they also offer UV protection from the sun. Available in multiple textures and colorways, these masks normally retail for either $20 or $27 depending on the style, but through tonight, December 17, only, you can use coupon code HOLIDAYCHEER4 at checkout to save 50%!

12. 20% discount: Sock It To Me
The thing that makes Sock It To Me’s face masks unique is the outer layer, which is knit with an antimicrobial copper fiber that the brand claims provides more substantial protection than a standard cotton face mask. Adjustable and breathable, these fun designs also feature a soft inner layer with embedded wire sewn into the top that you can mold around your nose for a more contoured fit. While each one regularly retails for $15, online members (it’s free to sign up) can enter coupon code NEWSOCKSROCK at checkout to save 20%. Better yet, for every mask purchase, the retailer will donate one to Meals on Wheels people volunteers!

Made from two-layer polyester, these premium masks, normally $17 and now $12.75 with the code, are more form-fitting across the nose, while the regular masks, from $7.13 with the code, have a looser fit.
