If you're planning on tackling the Labor Day sales in person, it's not always clear which store will open and when.

Thankfully, most of the biggest stores will be open and they'll be offering some excellent discounts. I've checked at the opening hours for Target, Walmart, Lowe's, and more, so that you know where to go when the sales start.

I've also included some of the best deals on offer at each retailer. You can make a list online and find those items in store if you want to hold them in-person, but we've already researched and tested these products in our team of experts.

Target will be open for normal business hours: 8 am to 10 pm. However, some of those hours will depend on location. I would recommend taking a look at Target's online sale before doing a sales run in person.

Walmart will be open for their normal business hours, which is 6 am to 11 pm, giving you plenty of time to grab a deal. Local stores might have different hours, so make sure you check online before heading out. I'd recommend looking at their Labor Day mattress and outdoor furniture sales in person, because it always helps to test them in person.

Segmart Counter Height Table

Was $399, now $199 at Walmart
This modern table set comes with four counter height stools. It's the perfect piece for creating a breakfast bar for everyone to fit around. The chairs tuck neatly underneath, so it doesn't take up much room either.

Breville Bambino Espresso Machine

Was $333.95, now $299 at Walmart
I cannot stress how good this espresso machine is. It's currently reduced to under $300 which is a steal for an espresso machine this good. You'll make incredible coffee and save money with the Breville Bambino.

Aicok Slow Masticating Juicer

Was $219.99, now $59.99 at Walmart9
I haven't tested the Aicok, but I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't share this saving. With $160 off, this is a steal. I've heard incredible things about these juicers, so it's at least worth considering.

Final Thoughts

Sometimes sale shopping in person is better than online - I love a bit of both. It's good to scout out your options online, so I would recommend browsing our sales pages before you head out. That way, you'll be able to wade through the hectic sale floors with clear direction, ensuring you make the best buys on Labor Day.
