Memorial Day always feels like the official start of summer. With backyard barbecues, family get-togethers, spending time outside, and days spent by the water—as well as shopping Memorial Day sales, of course—it’s a weekend of celebration, gratitude, and remembrance. And we’re all looking forward to it.

We also know it’s one of the biggest retailer sales weekends of the year, especially when it comes to bigger-ticket items like furniture, mattresses, home decor, and more. Plus, some of our favorite stores for mom fashion are having major discounts, too.

To make it easier to shop, we’ve rounded up some editor and reader favorites that are all on major sale this Memorial Day weekend. From furniture and kids’ items to swimwear and summer fashion faves, we’ve got you covered. So whether you’re spending your time scrolling on a road trip or just taking a break from three days home with the kids, enjoy this round-up of the best Memorial Day sales to shop this week and weekend.

How I narrowed down the best Memorial Day sales

As The Everymom’s commerce editor, it’s my job to sift through the millions of products you can buy online all day long. I’m constantly weeding out the best of the best, so that you can reclaim some time in your already-too-busy day. I’ve been writing these sale roundups for over three years, and in that time, I’ve learned a thing or two about what The Everymoms want.

A big sale weekend is the ideal time to buy something you may have been eyeing for a while but didn’t quite want to pull the trigger on. That’s why I always make sure to include reader favorites—such as the latest style of Madewell denim or a Hanna Andersson pajama discount—in these lists. Now’s the time to treat yourself to a summer wardrobe refresh, a home upgrade, or that thing that’s been in your Amazon wishlist for months.
