It’s the evening here in New York and this will be my last post for the day. Amazon has a huge sitewide sale on many of its smart devices. The sale includes Fire TV Sticks, Echo Dots, Fire TVs, and Ring Cameras. These are all good prices, but if I can make one suggestion — if you can wait till the start of Prime Day deals, I highly recommend you wait. Most, if not all, of these devices will be on sale again come July when Prime Day kicks off. (Amazon has yet to announce an official date). That said if you need to replace a device asap, these are all solid deals you can take advantage of now. And on that note, happy Memorial Day, everyone!

Nothing screams Memorial Day like a good backyard barbecue. If you need to upgrade your equipment or accessories, Overstock is taking up to 25% off select grills, cooking accessories, stainless steel utensils, and more. After discount, you can get a grill for as little as $85.

Xbox Series X restock has finally stabilized. However, if $499 is still too pricey for your budget, we’re now seeing discounts on the XSX’s counterpart, the Series S. For instance, right now you can get the Xbox Series S on sale for $249 at Adorama. That’s $50 off and the lowest price we’ve seen for this console.

I’ve never ridden an electric scooter, but I’ve always been curious about them. If you’re feeling adventurous and have the space for one, Best Buy is having an electric scooter sale with discounts on Segway, Unagi, Hover-1, and more. Not sure which one to buy? Make sure to check out our guide to the best electric scooters.

I love a good, comfy pillow and I highly, highly recommend the Tempur-Pedic Cloud Adjustable Pillows. I bought them about a year ago and absolutely love them. They’re nice and firm, but also soft and provide just the right amount of support, so you don’t have to fold your pillow when you’re reading or scrolling through your IG feed while in bed. FWIW, I bought them during a buy-one-get-one-50% off sale, so today’s deal is a waaaay better bargain. Actually, all of Tempur-Pedic’s pillows are BOGO right now, but if spending more than $89 on a pair of pillows is a tough pill to swallow, you can’t go wrong with the $69 pair.

I’ve been covering Memorial Day sales for over a decade now and if you were to ask me what items see the biggest discounts on Memorial Day I’d say TVs, mattresses, and appliances. Appliances — both large and small — get epic discounts on Memorial Day. Take for instance this appliance sale at Samsung. The Samsung Store is taking up to $1,550 off refrigerators, washers/dryers, dishwashers, and more. You can also mix-and-match appliances for 10% off or get a free induction cookware set when you buy eligible cooktops/ranges.

I don’t drive, so I know jack about cars. However, I know a good deal when I see one and Tesla is offering a surprise Memorial Day sale for all Tesla owners out there. The electric car maker is offering free supercharing during off-peak hours at select locations. (You can look at the map of eligible locations here (opens in new tab)). It includes charging stations in Florida, Texas, California, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and more. To get this freebie, you’ll have to charge after 7 p.m. local time. The deal is valid today only.
My parents are hoping to adopt a dog this summer and you can bet I’m gonna spoil him/her rotten with treats and….a Star Wars Dog bed! To be honest, I’m not even a Star Wars fan, but I just love this bed. It’s only $24 and if you buy 2, you’ll get a 3rd bed for free. Chewy has a bunch of BOGO promos on pet beds (as well as deals on standalone pet beds) for Memorial Day. You can check out the Star Wars Cat/Dog Bed for $24 via this Chewy link (opens in new tab).
It’s shortly after 1 p.m. ET here in New York and so far there are no signs of a PS5 restock. However, this is a reminder that a Walmart PS5 restock is happening this Thursday (June 2) at 3 p.m. ET. The console drop will be for Walmart Plus members only. (You must be a paying member to get access to the console). In addition to the PS5 drop, Thursday will also be the start to Walmart’s first ever Walmart Plus Deals Weekend. It’s basically a 4-day sales event offering sitewide savings to Walmart Plus members.
Walmart Plus: $98/year or $12.95/month @ Walmart (opens in new tab)
Temperatures here in New York are going to hit a steamy 96 degrees later this week. (Have I mentioned how much I hate warm weather?) That means now is the time to buy an AC unit if you don’t already own one or if you need to replace an older model. For Memorial Day, Walmart is discounting a wide variety of air conditioners, fans, and portable air conditioners. Portable AC units are as cheap as $49, whereas window AC units are as low as $154. For more deals, make sure to check out our air conditioner sales page.
Fans/air conditioners: on sale from $154 @ Walmart (opens in new tab)
I need to purchase a new vacuum badly. My old Dirt Devil just isn’t cutting it anymore. Our homes editor Katie Mortram owns and recommends this Dyson. It’s $100 off today only and it holds a spot in our best vacuum cleaners guide. Katie says it offers excellent pick up on both carpeting and hardwood floors. Plus, it’s great at sucking up everyday debris, like pet hair.

Time for a small confession: I know people love summer, but I can’t stand it. One of the reasons is because I tend to heat up easily. If you’re like me, the Cocoon Chill Mattress is worth looking into. We called it the best budget cooling mattress for hot sleepers. To be fair, every mattress manufacturer says their mattress offers great airflow and/or cooling, but we love the Cocoon Chill because it actually works and it’s a great value buy. For Memorial Day, you’ll get pillows and a sheet set bundle ($179 value) for free with your mattress purchase. If you want to get into the nitty-gritty of how the mattress performs, make sure to check out our Cocoon Chill Memory Foam Mattress review. I know it’s technically not summer yet, but it’s hot enough if you ask me!

Earlier this year, the base iPad was impossible to find in stock. It finally stabilized and it’s been on sale for $309 ($20 off) these past few weeks. But for Memorial Day — Amazon is offering an epic hidden deal. The 64GB model is on sale for $309, but you get a secret/hidden $19 discount at checkout for a final price of $289! The 256GB model is also on sale for $429 ($50 off), but again you get an extra/hidden $19 off at checkout. Take advantage of these iPad deals before they sell out.

The XPS 13 is one of the best laptops you can buy. It’s slim, powerful, and sports a timeless design. That said, the XPS 13 is on sale during every major holiday. (Sometimes it’s even on sale when it’s not a holiday). But today’s deal is worth highlighting because it’s a great price low ($881) and the config on sale is better than the usual configuration. Today’s deal gets you a 13.3-inch 1080p LCD, Core i7-1165G7 CPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. Just remember to use coupon “50OFF699” during checkout to get this price.
Memorial Day is a great time to upgrade to a new TV. For example, Amazon is taking 50% off one of its Fire TVs. Currently, you can get the Toshiba 65-inch 4K Fire TV on sale for $499. Our TV editor Nick Pino calls it one of the best budget offerings around. Plus, the TV just launched in May, so it’s got all the features you’d want like a 120Hz refresh rate and Dolby Vision HDR support.

Hey, all! Deals editor Louis here navigating our Memorial Day sales live blog for the next few hours. I’m based in sunny NYC where it’s the perfect day for a backyard….pizza party. Growing up in NYC, I actually never had a backyard, but if I did — I would absolutely get one of these ovens. Not only are they in our best pizza ovens guide, but they’re all 20% off. (These ovens rarely go on sale). If you’re wondering which one to pick — the Ooni Frya 12 for $279 (opens in new tab) is an epic deal. You can read about it in our Ooni Frya 12 review, but it’s basically one of the best purchases our Deputy Editor Mike Prospero has made. (By comparison, Best Buy has it on sale for $292 (opens in new tab), which isn’t the full 20% off you’ll get at Backcountry).

Speaking of products hitting a lowest ever price, Amazon is currently offering the Apple Watch 7 at a new all-time low price as part of its massive Memorial Day sales.
For a limited time, the Apple Watch 7 is just $329 at Amazon (opens in new tab). The 41mm model with GPS normally costs $399, so you’ll save $70 thanks to this deal. A saving of this size easily qualifies as one of the best Apple Watch deals we’ve seen for the Series 7.
We’re seriously big fans of this wearable, we even rank it as the best smartwatch you can buy. That’s because the Apple Watch 7 offers all the excellent fitness tracking features you’d expect from an Apple Watch as well as new capabilities. These include a larger display, brighter screen and faster charging. It all adds up to Apple’s most complete wearable to date.

Here’s another epic Memorial Day laptop deal worth paying attention to. Amazon has slashed the price of various Microsoft Surface Go Laptops, although you may have to be flexible about color if you want to get the best discount.
Right now, the top-tier Surface Laptop Go (8GB RAM/256GB) is just $639 at Amazon (opens in new tab), down from $899. But you can only score this saving if you buy it in Platinum. It’ll be $649 in Sandstone or $674 in Ice Blue. Even if you’re not fully sold on the Platinum colorway, $639 is the lowest price this Surface Laptop Go configuration has ever dropped to, so it’s well worth considering.
This is an excellent deal on a lightweight and capable Windows device. in our Microsoft Surface Laptop Go review, we praised its premium design, great keyboard, its generous selection of ports. The battery life, heat output and display brightness did disappoint us a little, but overall the Laptop Go is an attractive and very portable device.

Our fitness editor has tested an awful lot of running shoes and highly recommends the Nike Pegasus 38. So, if you’ve been waiting for a Memorial Day sale to invest in a new pair of running shoes, then your patience has paid off.
Nike is currently offering the Nike Pegasus 38 for $64 (opens in new tab). That’s a big saving compared to the shoes’ regular $120 retail price. You’ll need to use coupon code SAVE20 at check out in order to get the full discount.
The Pegasus 38 is a brilliant all-around shoe — suitable for long, easy training runs, but with enough snap to pick up the pace should you need it. This shoe is comfortably one of the best Nike running shoes you can buy. It’s also ideal for both experienced runners and newcomers alike, so whatever your level of running ability you won’t want to miss this deal.

No annual sales event is complete without an AirPods Pro discount, and Memorial Day isn’t disappointing on that front.
Amazon currently has the Apple AirPods Pro on sale for $179 (opens in new tab). That’s a saving of $69 compared to its standard retail price of $249. This is one of the lowest prices we’ve seen for the premium earbuds outside of Black Friday and Prime Day.
We rank the AirPods Pro as one of the best wireless earbuds you can buy. Not only does it sport an eye-catching design, but it also offers seriously good active noise cancellation and a snug-in-ear fit. The five-hour battery life is a little disappointing but the supplied wireless charging case adds up to 24 hours of juice to keep you listening through the day.

You won’t find a Memorial Day deal that costs less than this one because right now at Best Buy you can get six months of Apple Music for absolutely nothing. Yup, that’s right, six months of Apple Music for free (opens in new tab)at Best Buy. No purchase required or strings attached.
There is one small condition: New subscribers only. But if you’ve never tried Apple Music before then this deal is the perfect opportunity to give Spotify’s biggest rival a chance. Apple’s music streaming service gives you access to 70 million ad-free songs, exclusive original content and the ability to download/play music offline.

If you’re on the hunt for a Memorial Day laptop deal at the lowest possible price, then this offer on an Asus Chromebook could be exactly what you’ve been looking for.
Right now, you can get an Asus 11.6-inch Chromebook for $99 at Best Buy (opens in new tab). That’s a massive $120 off its regular retail price of $219. If this deal sells out, Walmart is offering an HP 11.6-inch Chromebook for $98 (opens in new tab), which is $127 off.
As you’d expect for the price, this Asus Chromebook isn’t a powerhouse and doesn’t quite stack up against some of the best Chromebooks currently available. However, for a $99 machine, it’s surprisingly capable and is perfectly suited for at-home learning or performing basic work tasks.

Here’s one of our favorite Memorial Day gaming sales, Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart is just $39 at Best Buy (opens in new tab). This is one of the best PS5 games you can buy, and at $30 off it’s a real bargain.
This PS5 exclusive sees the iconic PlayStation mascots return for another intergalactic adventure. Only this time they’re not just jumping between planets, but also exploring entirely new dimensions as well. Both Ratchet and Clank are playable, along with a brand new character, named Rivet.
This game takes full advantage of the power of the PS5 and plays in gorgeous 4K at a smooth 60 fps. It also packs some of the best DualSense controller features of any PS5 game to date. This is one title that every PS5 owner should have in their library.

8K TVs are currently grabbing a lot of headlines in the tech world, but to be completely honest most consumers don’t need one simply because there isn’t much easily-accessible 8K content out there just yet.
For this reason, we don’t typically recommend 8K TVs. However, this Best Buy Memorial Day deal is an exception as a 65-inch LG 8K TV for $999 (opens in new tab) is too good of a deal to pass up. This is the least expensive 8K TV we’ve ever seen, usually, we see deals starting at around $1,799. It’s also a massive $2,000 off its regular price of $2,999.
This 2020 model features LG’s a9 Gen 1 AI 8K CPU, 120Hz refresh rate, built-in Google Assistant/Amazon Alexa, Dolby Vision/HDR10/HLG support, and a low-latency mode for console gaming.

A robot vacuum is a great way to take some of the tedium out of household chores, and right now the Roborock S4 Max is our top pick among the best robot vacuums you can buy.
We’ve previously recommended this nifty little cleaner at full retail price, but as part of Amazon Memorial Day sales, the Roborock S4 Max has dropped to just $299 (opens in new tab). That’s $130 off its full price of $429, and a fantastic deal on a vacuum we rate extremely highly for its excellent cleaning capabilities and fast mapping skills. In order to get the full discount make sure you click the on-page digital coupon before checking out.

The 2021 iPad mini features an all-new thin-bezel design, a larger 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display, A15 Bionic CPU, 12MP wide camera and USB-C connectivity.

During any major retail sales event, TV deals are always in high demand. Memorial Day is no different and we’re currently seeing retailers compete to offer the lowest possible price on some very big televisions.
Walmart is currently the front runner, and for a limited time, the national retailer is offering this TCL 75” 4-Series 4K TV for $678 (opens in new tab). That’s a massive $621 off its regular retail price of $1,299. This is easily one of the best Memorial Day TV sales we’ve seen so far. This model delivers big and sharp ultra-HD pictures complete with support for high dynamic range (HDR), 4K upscaling and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate.

Memorial Day sales are a great time to save big on some essentials. Take the humble mattress for example. Everybody deserves a luxurious sleeping surface, but the best mattress models from premium brands like Nectar can be very pricey.
Thankfully, as part of its massive Memorial Day sale, Nectar has dropped its award-winning memory foam mattress to just $399 (opens in new tab), that’s a sizeable discount from its usual price of $798. All mattress sizes have been reduced in this sitewide sale including queen which is just $799 (was $1,298). Even better, you’ll get a $399 bedding bundle for free with any purchase.
The Editor’s Choice mattress offers tremendous value for the money and holds a spot in our best mattress guide. In our review we found that it’s very comfortable (thanks to its five layers of memory foam) and it offers excellent pressure relief around your shoulders, hips, and back. You’ll sleep even better knowing you got a quality mattress at such a steep discount.
Good Morning! Welcome to the Tom’s Guide Memorial Day sales live bog for 2022. Here we’ll be sharing all the best Memorial Day sales and deals throughout the entire day, and maybe even a little beyond that as well.
This year the bar for deciding which deals we recommend has been raised considerably. The cost of living continues to increase for most people, so getting the biggest savings possible has never been more important. So, let’s start with a promotion on the always popular iPhone 13.
Traditionally buying the latest iPhone is an expensive endeavor, but for Memorial Day, Best Buy is taking up to $800 off the iPhone 13 (opens in new tab) with trade-in. Verizon and AT&T customers get up to $800 off, whereas T-Mobile customers get up to $425 off. Even better this iPhone 13 deal is valid on all models of Apple’s flagship smartphone.
