Nothing beats the look of delight when someone opens that just-right gift you picked out for them. But getting a major deal on something you want for yourself is pretty delightful, too.

Some of our favorite local shops and boutiques are offering serious markdowns right now, and whether you're one of the lucky folks still enjoying vacation days or more of a surreptitious workday online shopper, there are plenty of discounts to grab. Here are our top picks:
