As with most major holidays, we see retailers roll out the savings for Memorial Day. This is a great time to save on spring and summer essentials like patio furniture and gardening supplies, as well as home items like appliances and mattresses.

To start, Google the Memorial Day sales circular of your favorite retailer to see what good promotions they’re running for the holiday. The first page of a sales ad will usually contain the best deals and biggest discounts, so take note of what is promoted there.

Home improvement stores are at the top of the list for Memorial Day savings, and they will always run promotions on appliances. Save up to 40% on name brand washers, dryers, and refrigerators, as well as smaller home appliances, at stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot, as well as other retailers like Best Buy.

Look for big savings on patio furniture, which can be discounted 30-40% off! Now is a great time to buy that new outdoor furniture set, fire pit, or gazebo.

Perhaps the quintessential Memory Day sale item is the mattress. Shop direct at brands like Serta, Tempur-Pedic, and Tuft & Needle for significant savings on a new bed. You can also check out your local mattress discount store or online retailers like Overstock.com for hundreds of dollars off the price of mattresses and box springs, as well as special offers like “Free bedframe with the purchase of any mattress.”

Don’t forget to use BrickSeek! We sift through the discounts at the nation’s largest retailers and provide you with the best deals at each. BrickSeek is a great tool to use in the months approaching a major holiday, as many retailers will begin to mark down seasonal items to make room for newer models.

For example, grills are a big hit come Memorial Day. We saw grill markdowns galore around March, with models that were originally hundreds of dollars being clearanced as low as $25-50. Although you can expect to save 15-20% on grills and grilling accessories for Memorial Day, this type of item is best to buy at the beginning or end of the summer season where savings can reach 75-90% off!
