The 14 Best Products to Sell Online in September 2022

September is more than a song by Earth, Wind & Fire — it's also a great time to sell a variety of products and offer Labor Day promotions. So how can Marketplace sellers make the most of this month?

To give you an answer, we sifted through the shopping trends of DealNews readers from September 2021 and found the items that resonated most during that time. Check out our guide to see the best things to sell online in September 2022, plus the items you may want to list in October instead.

The 14 Best Products to Sell Online in September 2022

Our infographic below shows some of the top products to sell online this September. Take a look, then read about all the popular categories for the month, along with specific items that DealNews readers were drawn to in September 2021.

Tools and Home Improvement Supplies

Items for around-the-house projects make our "what to sell" lists pretty much every month, but they don't always take the top spot. In September 2021, though, tools and home improvement items were the most popular category among DealNews readers. And around the same time in 2020, home improvement products resonated the most. That's all to say that this month seems to be a particularly good time to sell tools and home improvement supplies.

If you're wondering which of these items to list this year, consider products like the following, which were all trending among our readers in September 2021:

• 8' expandable drain pipes
• Drywall/jab saws
• Digital multimeters
• 6-piece sets of reciprocating saw blades
• 2" power bits
• 10-packs of clear safety goggles
• Smart thermostats

Men's Basics

For reasons we're not exactly sure of, men's clothing items — and especially basics — have resonated with our readers the past three Septembers. Given this history, we expect they'll hold appeal with our readers again in 2022.

Multipacks of these wardrobe must-haves seemed especially popular last year. They included 2-packs and 5-packs of athletic shorts, 4-packs of short-sleeve T-shirts, and 6-packs of men's crew socks. Our readers also gravitated toward Levi's jeans, waterproof jackets, and cotton pajama pants.

Health-Related Items

Various health products resonated with our readers last year, but be aware that some have a strong association with COVID-19. Their popularity in September 2022 could hinge on the rate of COVID-19 spread during the month, as well as the mask requirements in place. If you decide to list these types of items, know that the trending products in September 2021 included 3-packs of cloth face masks, 20-packs of N95 respirators, and 50-packs of disposable face masks, along with COVID-19 antigen self tests.

Readers also gravitated toward health items with less of a link to the coronavirus pandemic, and these could be safer bets for a Marketplace seller. Among them were 100- and 299-piece first-aid kits, plus steam inhalers for sinus relief.

Electronics

Like tools and home improvement supplies, electronics is a category that's consistently popular with DealNews readers. But readers also gravitate toward different tech-oriented items from one month to the next. If you're thinking about what to sell in September, consider the following products:

• Mini HD hidden cameras
• 12MP HD flying cameras
• Adapters with lightning and USB connectivity
• 3-packs of USB-C to USB-A adapters
• Household robots
• 40mm Apple Watch smartwatches with GPS and sport bands

Laptops, Tablets, and Accessories

Many students have already started school by the time September rolls around, but that's not the case with everyone. Sellers could still benefit this month from people stocking up on Back to School supplies, including laptops, tablets, and related items. If you're thinking about listing these types of products in September, look into Intel Core i7 15.6" laptops, 13.3" MacBook Air laptops, iPad 10.2" 64GB devices, and USB-C multiport adapters. They all resonated with DealNews readers last September.

Office Supplies

The percentage of people working remotely because of the pandemic seems to be leveling off, but both at-home and in-office workers still need office supplies, and September could be a good month to sell them. Look into listing products like insulated lunch bags, 18-packs of retractable ballpoint pens, packs of removable multiuse labels, and 12" wooden rulers, which were all popular with our readers last September. Furniture-related pieces were trending, too, such as office chair seat cushions and sit-and-stand mobile workstations.

Don't Forget About Labor Day Sales!

Labor Day arrives on September 5 in 2022, but you can expect sales to begin in mid-August and last through the holiday. It's an ideal time to offer a discount, coupon, or other promotion on a variety of items. Last year, our readers gravitated toward Labor Day events offering electronics, clothes, toys, home items like furniture and rugs, Back to School supplies, and power tools, among other products.
