Birds are out, bees are buzzing and prices are lower than ever. That’s right—Memorial Day weekend is almost here, and we’re anticipating some serious savings during this year’s warm-weather holiday. Memorial Day sales aren’t just run-of-the-mill deals—it’s the spring equivalent of Black Friday.
Searching for the perfect inexpensive pizza oven or other backyard cooking essentials? Now is the time to usher in the summer season with savings on everything necessary for unforgettable patio parties and picnics. Or, swap those old kitchen appliances for some sleek, modern finds for less. One of our first stops on our Memorial Day shopping journey is the annual Amazon Memorial Day sale.
While there is an Amazon Memorial Day sale, it’s not like the usual fare from other retailers. Instead of featuring sitewide discounts or a landing page highlighting special savings, the Amazon sale features hundreds of deals right on their deals landing page. It’s a one-stop shop for rugs, bargain-priced kitchenware and patio coolers.
Individual stores control the discounts, so there’s a huge selection of savings to choose from, including editor-tested items and must-have tools.
Memorial Day falls on May 29, 2023 this year. But the Amazon Memorial Day sale is already in full swing, with hundreds of incredible savings available right now. Because of the sheer number of savings available, it’s a bit overwhelming. To make it easier to find the best deals, we highlighted our favorite sales under each category.
The Amazon Memorial Day sale isn’t pulling any punches. The GreenPan Hudson cookware set is on sale for 51% off, putting the price at only $72 for the eight-piece collection. In our review of these PFAS-free pans, we emphasize how easy it is to slide eggs right off the ceramic surface—no cooking oil or chemical coatings are required.
Heirloom kitchenware is worth the investment, and there’s nothing that lasts longer than a Lodge cast iron skillet. Durable cast iron offers impeccable searing power on everything from steaks to scrambles. When properly seasoned, food doesn’t stick to the surface, making it easy to clean. It’s also a total steal at a savings of $20.
Not convinced? Read our review of the skillet to see why it’s our go-to for every meal!
In our review of the Dyson V11, we praise the vacuum for its incredible pickup power and cordless design. The only drawback is the price at $700. Imagine our shock when we saw the Dyson V11 Torque available at a generous $200 discount during the Amazon Memorial Day sale. Now is the time to upgrade while this reliable, lightweight vacuum is on deep discount.
The Mr. Coffee iced and hot brewer is necessary for any coffee lover that needs to be out the door fast—treat yourself while it’s 31% off. Ever since reviewing the slightly upgraded Mr. Coffee 4-in-1, I’ve used it every single day to make delicious, fast lattes. I love it so much that I cleared off a permanent place for it on my tiny apartment countertop.
With the capacity to brew up delicious coffeeshop brews in seconds, it’s the perfect solution for coffee lovers light on time.
Plastic waste, who? The Stanley Quencher water bottle eliminates the need for disposable bottles thanks to an easy-to-carry handle and enormous 40-ounce size. Our review of the Quencher mentions that it keeps water ice-cold for eight hours and counting—that’s an entire workday! Haul it along to work or the gym and never miss a sip thanks to a clever built-in straw. Snag it on a rare discount during the Amazon Memorial Day sale and save a generous $10.
Here at Taste of Home, we know that the best Instant Pot is the Instant Pot that’s on sale. Scoop up the Instant Pot Pro at a hefty discount of $40 and enjoy one-pot meals like easy mac and cheese, tender pork loin and steaming chilis. An electric locking mechanism and built-in safety controls make it easier to use than a traditional pressure cooker. Plus, the steam action saves tons of time, whipping up delicious dinners in just minutes.
Slice, dice and shred through veggies and eggs with the clever Mueller vegetable chopper. Not only is this incredible vegetable chopper able to cube up eggs in a single move, but it can also slice up paper-thin produce, too. The best part is the price—this must-have kitchen tool rings up at a staggering 40% savings and an additional $5 off coupon!
Our Test Kitchen’s very own Sarah Farmer wrote a detailed review of the Potane vacuum sealer, and it passed her extensive testing with flying colors! What’s more, it’s currently available at a savings of $57 with the bonus coupon. Whether you’re looking to freeze make-ahead meals or want to minimize produce waste, this vacuum sealer is just the tool to do it.
Sometimes jar lids hurt to twist—that’s where this automatic jar opener comes in. In our full writeup on the RoboTwist, we mention that this is an essential kitchen tool to make cooking accessible for anyone. Simply place it on top of a lid and press the button. The automatic opener locks onto the lid and removes even the most stubborn top. For accessibility alone, it’s well worth the price, especially on sale for 52% off.
A little blue apple that stops strawberries from premature spoiling sounds like a joke—but the Bluapple produce saver earned three thumbs up in our editor’s review. Right now it’s a total steal at $6 off the combo pack. The secret behind this savvy saver is the active ingredient packet inside that absorbs ethylene gas, slowing the ripening process of fruits and veggies in the fridge. Wasting less groceries means spending less money—see why we love it?
Snacking on ice isn’t just a “you” thing—in fact, GE’s countertop ice maker is partially marketed towards people who do just that! While reviewing the ice maker, our editor noted that the maker exclusively produces nugget ice or, as GE likes to call it, “the good ice.” The promise of freshly made ice in under 30 minutes is enough to make us rush to snatch one while it’s $50 off.
The HyperChiller may sound like a science fiction device, but this easy-to-use cup doesn’t require tons of advanced tech to cool wine, coffee and water in seconds. It’s also inexpensive at a savings of 20%. In our review of the HyperChiller, we found that it chills coffee in 60 seconds or less—that’s even faster than brewing coffee over ice! Just pop it in the freezer until cold, then add any beverage for an instantly refreshing drink.
