Amazons Memorial Day Sale is live: Get tablets for $179, Casper mattresses under $500

Memorial Day weekend is officially here, and you know what that means: Sales galore. Amazon is leading the way by offering up to 55% off select items, including Amazon devices, kitchen appliances, home goods, gadgets, mattresses, TVs, and more. The sale started on May 16 and runs through Monday, May 26, which means you're running out of time to save. This pre-summer sale is a great time to snag new headphones, grab an affordable tablet to keep the kids busy on summer trips, or restock on outdoor gear.

Of course, these deals might get even better as the holiday approaches. (We’ll be keeping an eye on prices and updating this story regularly.) But there’s no harm in snatching up a few discounts now, especially for high-demand items with limited availability.

Here are some of the best Amazon Memorial Day sales you can shop now.

Best tech deal

Why we like it

The Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet is currently on sale for $174.99, down from $229.99. This isn’t the lowest price we’ve seen for this tablet (around $139.99 in November), but it’s still a pretty good deal for a newish tablet (it’s a 13th-gen, released in 2023).

The Fire Max 11 has an 11-inch display, 64GB of storage (you can expand it to up to 1 TB with a micro-SD card), and 14 hours of battery life. It’s ideal for streaming your favorite shows or reading e-books on the go. (You can game on it, too.) It’s also equipped with Alexa and compatible with the Amazon Stylus Pen.

Best vacuum deal

Why we like it

We're not sure how exactly Dyson stick vacuums became status symbols, but here we are. If you've never had the pleasure of using one of these cordless vacuums, we promise they live up to the hype. And for MDW, you can grab the starter V8 model on sale for $349.99, a $120 discount from the usual retail price. This vacuum has a slick design and powerful suction, but it's also easy to maneuver around your home.

Best outdoor deal

Why we like it

The Char-Broil Patio Bistro TRU-Infrared Electric Grill is currently on sale for $131.93, down from $249.99. That’s a 47% discount and a whopping $118.06 in savings. Again, it’s not the lowest we’ve seen on this grill (the lowest was $125.99), but it’s still a solid deal.

This is a great option for those who don’t have a lot of outdoor space or don’t want to deal with propane or charcoal. (Just be sure to read your lease! Some apartments don’t allow grills on balconies.) The TRU-Infrared technology cooks up to 50% juicier food, according to the manufacturer, and the grill has 320 square inches of cooking space, so you can still grill up plenty of food for friends and family.

Best headphones deal

Why we like it

If you have upcoming travel plans for the long Memorial Day weekend or you'll be heading abroad this summer, your packing list surely includes noise-cancelling headphones for the flight. Bose makes some of the most impressive noise-cancellation in the industry, and the Bose QuietComfort Headphones are on sale for just $229, marked down from the normal price of $349. This steep discount makes them a solid choice and might be a better fit if you've already dropped some serious money on flights. They're not quite as impressive as our favorite Bose QuietComfort Ultra, but those are still hanging out at full price, which is $429.

The Bose QuietComfort headphones come with bragging rights: getting up to 24 hours of playtime with a seriously comfortable design. The colorway options are also impressive, including your standard black and white but also a Chilled Lilac and Twilight Blue.

Best kitchen deal

Why we like it

While it's down to the lowest price we've ever seen at Amazon, grab the Breville Barista Pro Espresso Machine. Instead of paying the normal $849.95, you'll be able to become a professional home barista for just $599.99. Be sure to snag the stainless steel colorway options since the others are still well above this sale price.

With a sleek design and intuitive buttons, the Breville is your ticket to summer mornings spent in the backyard with an espresso. Or you could go with a latte, thanks to the machine's manual milk foamer that achieves perfect texture. The dosing control grinder is also incredibly useful, as is the built-in conical burr grinder.

Best home security deal

Why we like it

Since Memorial Day signifies the beginning of the summer vacation season, it's wise to upgrade your home's security. The Blink Video Doorbell with Sync Module 2 is on sale at Amazon for just $34.99, marked down from the standard price of $69.99, which means you'll be getting a 50% discount. The sale price is also the lowest we've ever seen at Amazon.

The Blink Video Doorbell gives you a 1080p view of your home's front door, which is useful both for when you're away on vacation and when you're home. You'll be able to see if the kids made it home from school on time or if the grocery delivery arrived. Set-up takes just a few minutes with the included batteries, and then connects to the Blink app.

Best mattress deal

Why we like it

Casper is the best-known mattress-in-a-box brand, and there's a reason it's still so popular after all these years. The company makes affordable mattresses with a generous 100-night sleep trial, making it a little bit easier to shop for a mattress. This particular model is popular among Amazon shoppers even when it's not on sale, and it's a medium-firm memory foam bed. If you need a new pillow to go along with your bed, check out Casper's entire Memorial Day sale at Amazon.
