How to shop Memorial Day sales

The start-of-summer sale

Memorial Day, the last Monday in May, is the unofficial start of summer and one of the four big mattress and appliance weekends of the year, alongside Presidents' Day, Labor Day and Black Friday. It is also when grills and patio furniture get their first real discounts of the season. Many sales start a week or two early: Home Depot's 2026 sale went live around 14 May.

Mattresses: same deal, different name

The 2026 Memorial Day mattress discounts of 25–40% matched what the same brands offered on Presidents' Day in February. If the bed you want is on sale, buy on the price, not the holiday. Some brands raise list prices before a sale, so check what it cost a month earlier.

Appliances: compare the total

  • Delivery: free-delivery rules vary. Home Depot's threshold was $998 in 2026; Lowe's offered free next-day delivery on hundreds of items.
  • Installation and haul-away: ask whether they are included before you compare prices.
  • Bundles: buying two or more appliances often takes off more than the headline percentage.

Grills and patio: early, not cheapest

Memorial Day grill and patio deals are good, and the choice is the best of the summer. If you can wait, the leftovers get cheaper around the Fourth of July and again at Labor Day.
