25 Best Amazon Deals: Up to 44% Off Ninja, KitchenAid, Dyson, and More
May 21, 2026
1 min readWhile summer doesn’t technically begin until late June, Memorial Day (Monday, May 25) has always felt like the unofficial kickoff. The holiday weekend also happens to be one of the biggest sales of the whole season—which makes it a great time to stock up on seasonal essentials like swimsuits, sunscreen, and travel gear. During Amazon’s holiday weekend sale, our deals experts are seeing up to 42% off coveted brands like Levi’s, Apple, and Samsonite.
Shop Amazon’s Memorial Day Sale
As a shopping editor who’s been covering Amazon sales for four years now, I’m surprised to see that the e-tailer might be reserving its most popular discounts. While there was an abundance of early deals at the beginning of May, some of the most coveted items (like Apple’s MacBook Air and Bissell’s Little Green Machine) are barely marked down at the moment. Instead, you’re better off scooping up kitchen appliances and travel gear.
