Aside from wearing your favorite red, white and blue ensemble and drinking USA-brewed beer in the great American outdoors, there's really only one other way to properly show your patriotism this Independence Day: By shopping, of course. As with every long weekend, retailers have decided to participate in the national holiday by cutting you a deal, many of which are for their summer merch. How appropriate!
