Some of my favorite sales include Amazon's discounted Echo devices, REI's holiday event, and Benchmade's sitewide sale.

Labor Day TV sales and deals
TVs are a popularly discounted item every Labor Day, and for good reason. Right now, I'm seeing a lot of great price drops on models we love and recommend in our guide to the best TVs, including Samsung, and Insignia displays. The best deals include almost $2,000 off the 65-inch Samsung S90C and 20% off Samsung's 2024 The Frame QLED TV.
Samsung's Frame TV can be mounted flush against your wall like a hanging piece of art. It also features a matte screen to make it look more like canvas, and you can purchase optional magnetic frame bezels in different colors and designs.
The S90C is our pick for the top TV value you can buy right now. It delivers premium 4K image quality with high contrast and vivid quantum dot colors for less than similar OLEDs from LG and Sony.
This high-end QLED offers impressive local dimming thanks to its Mini LED backlight, but it doesn’t stand out much compared to last year’s QN90C, which you can still pick up for less money.
The U8N is Hisense's 2024 flagship QLED TV. It uses a Mini LED backlight to preserve deep black levels while offering support for up to 3,000 nits of brightness. That's more than enough to enjoy vivid HDR videos, even in rooms with lots of light.
Roku's flagship Pro Series TV is a great all-around 4K QLED. Though similarly priced TCL and Hisense models have an edge in image quality, Roku's intuitive smart TV interface, handy backlit voice remote, and easy assembly make the Pro Series a worthy competitor.
This Insignia TV is about as basic as 4K displays come, but it's one of the only 70-inch displays that's regularly sold for under $500. Home theater fans should look elsewhere, but buyers who just want a cheap big-screen TV for casual viewing should be satisfied.
Labor Day appliance sales and deals
Appliances are expensive, which is why so many hopefuls hold out for a holiday deal. Luckily, several retailers are offering exclusive discounts on refrigerators, ranges, washing machines, outdoor fire pits, and more. Right now, the best deals include 40% off the Traeger Pro Series 22 Pellet Grill and 26% off our top fridge pick that comes with a free $250 gift card.
If you’re hoping to upgrade your fridge but don’t know where to start, consider our top pick for the most reliable refrigerator. It has convenient French-style doors and comes in black, stainless steel, and white.
LG makes some of the best smart refrigerators around, and this model is no different. With the InstaView feature, you can tap twice on the right-hand door to make it transparent.
