Memorial Day weekend means many things: acts of remembrance, backyard barbecues, and big sales from the bulk of retailers, both online and in-store. While Memorial Day itself is Monday, May 30, sales can begin at the start of the weekend or the week leading up to it, and some have even started right now!

So what are some of the high notes in Memorial Day's repertoire this year? Right now, shoppers can score major savings on appliances like air conditioners from Walmart and outdoor furniture sets from big-name stores like Wayfair and Lowe's to prep for outdoor entertaining. Thinking about upgrading your fridge for grilling season? Memorial Day is the time, with Best Buy hooking you up with over $600 off of the Samsung Bespoke 4-Door Refrigerator. Planning to make this summer a biking-heavy season? Step up your biking-gear game with over 60% off mountain biking shoes at REI. And, of course, it wouldn’t be Memorial Day without deals on bedding, with deals on linens from brands like Cultiver and Beckham, and mattresses from Brooklyn Bedding and Nectar.
